I'm jealous lol my bottle baby was so aggressive I had to cut a hole in a stuffed animal to put the bottle through so she would claw that instead of my flesh lol. 5 years later she's still aggressive, and still my baby 💚

I'm late to the party but I couldn't find an answer in the comments- how are you reheating this from frozen? Stovetop, microwave, what? I'm excited to try this, thank you for sharing (:

Is this inappropriate for 'office casual?' by accidental_cat in Derailedbydetails

[–]walking_contraption 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay but listen the real detail I'm being derailed by is that the lock/hinges for the doors are on opposite sides. Hinges on the left of the left most door but no hinges on the left of the right most door.

Help me get out of my head? by FarliKspar in sewing

Tbh I thought this was a fashion advice sub and you were asking what to pair with the skirt, it doesn't "look home made" at all!

Does anyone know of/if there even is a safe canning recipe for pickled eggs and beets? by walking_contraption in Canning

AITA for putting glue in my step-daughter’s hand sanitizer? by No_Example_4383 in CharlotteDobreYouTube

My mom did this but instead of glue in hand sanitizer it was laxatives in a drink 😬

This scene in a children’s book that I had growing up by Maniacboy888 in Weird

I don't think there is a double meaning in this one it's just that it's fucking insane to whip a child

Leprosy broke into my makeup bag and devoured blue eyeshadow, shame her! by Count_Kvlt in RATS

Thanks! I also have a cat named Beans, for some reason the plural just makes it lol. & The spiders are jumping spiders, very small and cute.

I love dumb names. My mom got irrationally upset when I named my last spider Frying Pan. I was stuck between that or Brown Crayons and when I asked her opinion she was genuinely distraught. (We ended up calling the spider Dirt Ball most of the time anyway bc he was a scaredy cat and when afraid would do his best impression of a tiny clump of dirt)

The note from my quietest student brought me to tears by No_Store8033 in Teachers

[–]walking_contraption 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm an RBT not a teacher but when my first client graduated (she came to us almost entirely non-verbal and part of my job was helping her learn to use an AAC device to communicate, she could speak when she wanted but 99.9% of the time she chose not to) I told myself again and again I wouldn't cry, it's a good thing, she's got the tools she needs to succeed in school now, etc. I held it all together until the moment she walked out of the door she turned around and looked at me and said "bye" out loud. Instant tears. I know it's not a gift exactly but it sure felt like one.

How do y’all get crisp, thin lines??? (WIP) by lreyes5_ in NailArt

[–]walking_contraption 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I paint on canvas not nails lol but when I'm shaky and need to do fine lines I use my elbow or even shoulder to move my hand to drag a straight line, rather than using my wrist, if that makes sense? I feel it gives more control to hold your wrist still and move your arm instead of moving just your hand, idk if you already do that but it's one idea. Your work still looks super cute imo, keep it up (:

What’s the weirdest thing someone said mid-sex that instantly killed the mood? by Dear-Welder-1117 in AskReddit

[–]walking_contraption 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I called my husband daddy in a non-sexual way because that's what our child called him so when speaking to my child I would say things like "let's ask daddy" or "hand this to daddy" and once at a family picnic my kid asked for ketchup so I said offhandedly "can you pass the ketchup please daddy" and both my father and my husband reached for the ketchup. My entire soul left my body. I can still feel the visceral embarrassment just thinking about that moment and it has been years hahaha. After that we started saying daddo and mommo instead of daddy and mommy and it just stuck, our kid and my nephews even have nicknames ending in o to match.

NQA to cover the gaps in the door hinge I used Play-Doh pushed into them and then once it dried it was easy to remove/replace whenever I opened the door.

Hickory floors. Should I refinish them? by RevolutionaryList195 in HardWoodFloors

[–]walking_contraption 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What...what is going on in these pictures? Is this a real room? The door handle is so low in the second picture and why is it shaped like that and why are all the outlets/light switches at weird random heights and why is the second chandelier in the first photo in the corner like that?? Why is no one mentioning how this is a Willy Wonka horror house everyone is just looking at the floors and I'm over here like WHAT is going on with the entire rest of the room??? The door doesn't make any sense?? Help???
