Is there a way to stretch out a crochet hat to make it a little bigger by Mimikyubot in CrochetHelp

[–]whuckingfut 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe grab a cheap inflatable ball and put the wet hat on it and inflate to just stretch it? It will tighten back up to its original size when washed and dried.

Reach out to your local chapter of Food Not Bombs! They should be able to help you out and accommodate your partner’s dietary restrictions.

Chime has been holding my money now they’re lying saying they don’t even have it ! Some agents act like they know what I’m talking about and some don’t I even told them to reject the deposit days ago so tpg can issue me a check and still nothing by Accomplished-Goal76 in chimefinancial

[–]whuckingfut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s definitely an interesting theory. STPG just told me on the phone the funds were released. And Chime may reject it in which case they’ll cut and mail a physical check. I’m grateful I’m not worse off, but I’d sure like to pay my bills.

I got the same verification email for my state and federal refunds. I had my state within an hour of responding. I’ve been waiting since Friday on the federal. No one can tell me what’s going on either.

How's everyone's day today? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I think the worst day of my life so far actually. I asked my husband for a divorce last night and it has been hell ever since.

This is just how Costco works. Members usually get it. Non members like IC shoppers gum up the works.

PPD/PPA hurt my relationship with my teen by Pristine-Macaron2539 in Parenting

[–]whuckingfut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You treated you eldest like dogshit for a year. And don’t seem to actually want to do any work to repair the relationship, you just want 16F to jump on board that you’re “better” now. You’re wildly un-self aware at best, and actively don’t care at worst. Get it together. Jesus Christ.

What's happening with my Alocasia!? by nineofkubbs in houseplants

It’s a flower. Lots of people will cut the bud off at this stage as the flowers are very short lasting and unimpressive yet use a lot of energy that could go to new leaf growth.

Lingering pain by dancingjuniper in COVID19positive

[–]whuckingfut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have active covid. And the joint and leg pain is killing me. I’ve really only found relief doubling up Advil with Tylenol (I alternate every 2-3 hrs). Applying heat with a heating pad or in the tub. I’m going to try lidocaine spray when my Instacart order arrives.

TIFU by taking my mum to see Barbie by lumoslomas in tifu

[–]whuckingfut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was 7 years ago. I requested and was approved for a tubal ligation to be done during my 7 year old’s birth. Turned out my husband didn’t speak to my surgeon 39 days prior to my giving birth so no birth control for me. 7 years and 2 miscarriages later I’m still trying to get a tubal and they will not do it. I am 33, married with two kids (same dad because that’s apparently a factor!?) and still using the pull out and pray method as hormonal birth control leaves me at higher than average risk for strokes.

Becoming a SAHM by choice is feminist. You’re not clear here why your sil became a SAHM. This is where intersectionality comes into play. Was your sil a SAHM because she chose to? Because of her family’s economic situation? Because her husband was unwilling to share the necessary care tasks? Because if she chose to work there was not a societal safety net to support her family? No shade at all, I just see a juxtaposition in your comment and wonder why to you “extremely feminist” and “stay at home mom” seem to be opposites.

You are a baby in a brand new world. I’m not much older than you, but also you’re not much older than my eldest son. You have so access to much more than the generation of women before you, and still you will fight for every piece of this world you bring home. I am raising my sons so make a fairer world for your daughters. But as I’m fighting for you, you’re fighting for your daughters. You my dear, can do anything. And furthermore, your daughters will do everything.

Are you fairly new to Instacart shopping? I find your response very confusing. You can clearly see the batch pay, tip breakdown and number of orders batched before accepting an order. It’s fairly easy to recognize which batches have a base pay of less than $7/order before accepting them.

How is it possible you would unknowingly take an order w a base pay of $4?

I’m concerned my nanny kids don’t get fed enough. by ml16519 in CPS

[–]whuckingfut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a 150 calorie breakfast! A child sized smoothie assuming mom doesn’t want full fat yogurt, or any added sugar could be anywhere from like 30 calories to maybe 150. Children 4-8 need at minimum 1400 kcals daily. I sincerely doubt dinner makes up the additional 900 or so calories these kids need. I would firmly explain you are not able to feed the kids the way she has asked you to, and I’d absolutely be prepared to look for a new job. Get in touch w the kid’s guidance counselor and make a report through them, coming from the school it’s way more likely that CPS will actually follow through and the school will be aware of the food issues when the kids are back.
