  • CBD oil cured my anxiety and so I lost important part of my ADHD motivation 🤦‍♀️

    Jump

  • This is correct, but you still gotta pay rent. You still have to buy groceries. You still have to cook and clean to maintain your life and environment. You need motivation for all that

  • What item you use frequently would you be least surprised to learn is secretly bad for you?

    Jump

  • I'm so nervous I'm going to find out aquaphor is bad. I've been spreading it on my baby's diaper area since they were born. I know she's absorbing it right into her little body. There's been so many articles about how diapers and tampons and pads are all just awful for us and full of lead and who knows what else and we're putting them right against our mucus membranes and just poisoning ourselves.

  • Do you want the murderer of the UnitHealthcare CEO prosecuted?

    Jump

  • I think they covered that, as long as we all agree that an appropriate sentence is zero jail time and maybe a nice cup of hot chocolate or something

  • Just put a spray tan over it

    Jump

  • I too would want to test patch it. But I would put it off too long and end up skipping the test patch.

  • Yeah, the skinniest couple I know eats candy and taco bell all day long (they're approaching 30 so that teen metabolism is long gone). They're not unusually active or anything, just thin. My husband is thin and has basically zero regard for his diet. Southern amounts of butter on everything. I'm much more careful than him, I enjoy plain veggies as snacks (as opposed to his pastries) and I'm ten pounds more than him at 7 inches shorter than him.

  • Stitch rule

  • Husband stitch that doctor's mouth so they never make that suggestion again. Men should not be allowed near OB.

  • Bank of Mum and Dad: why we all now live in an ‘inheritocracy’

  • I have friends with mortgages. They can't have kids though because it takes two incomes and then they can't afford childcare AND a mortgage

  • No sex. No dating. No marriage. No children. Interest grows in 4B movement to swear off men

    Jump

  • It's my bodily autonomy. I'm a woman of child-bearing age. I even want to make a child sometime in the next four years. I'm risking my health. I can't move. I will end up broke with zero resources in another state, with no job, and my husband will need to start his career from scratch if we move. We just can't afford it. Plus wherever we move, we'll be separated from both our families who are local here. And again, even if we move, wherever we start over could just be red in two election cycles anyway. Moving isn't the answer.

  • Fleeing my state isn't an option. Besides, my state didn't used to be red. A lot of states flipped or at least went from purple to red. So it's not even a guarantee if you uproot your entire family and life that you get to stay blue.

    I feel so demoralized when this comes up, as if it's my own fault I'm living somewhere with terrible laws. I voted. I got other people to vote. I changed a few minds on abortion (not easy to do!). I don't have the money or resources to start somewhere else, and we're all about to have less money.

  • why do our noses & anuses think different types of paper are softest?

    Jump

  • Thank you posting such an in depth and interesting explanation!

  • People in their 40s and 50s with no children, how does it feel?

    Jump

  • Yearly childcare is a years worth of income in plenty of places, so there's that too.

  • Huh. In my large city I have difficulty finding things in brick and mortar stores. Want a silicone tray for your air fryer? Walmart's website says they have them, but when you call the stores, they confirm they absolutely do not. Hobby lobby has it for 5x the price. No local stores come up as stocking them period, None other listed locally. I have this issue quite commonly. Maternity clothes sections just don't exist locally with any variety or consistency with sizes. Baby necessities, toys, and clothing is truly hit or miss in stores. You drive to the one store you think will have what you need and they closed two weeks ago.

    I don't live in the boonies. If you live in the US, you've heard of my city. I am constantly running into the issue that things are only available online, and then Amazon is always the quickest shipping, and almost always the least expensive.

    Fuck bezos and screw Amazon, but unless you're able to wait a week or three for everything you need, you don't have any good substitutes. I'd love to run out and buy it same day, but it's just not reliable to go to the store anymore.

  • Do lesbians have a concept of Top and Bottom?

    Jump

  • I think the difference is that starfish just lie there, spread out, not really participating, and a pillow princess participates with words and moans, and their hands are roaming, and they're I think usually good receivers they just don't get on top and take a turn at the work part. They do motivate their partner to continue pleasing them though.

  • If tomorrow you had 24 fully uninterrupted free hours to do with as you please, how would you spend your time?

    Jump

  • Start with a solid 10 hours of uninterrupted sleep! Then make myself a cup of coffee and finish it while it's still hot while finishing my book! Then off to the library to get the next in the series and I pick up my dad for breakfast at a diner. Go home, and have a hot bath and start the next book. An afternoon quickie with my husband. Now I go to my sister's house where our other sisters already are to make a puzzle. All the husbands and kids arrive but since my day is free and uninterrupted my parents are in charge of my baby while I cuddle my husband and we all play Jackbox until midnight .

  • What are you absolutely fed up with?

    Jump

  • The car behind me or across the intersection's headlights blinding me making it hard to see the road and also potentially causing a migraine. Ban them from the streets!

  • What's the coolest thing your library has available to check out?

    Jump

  • I don't want to dox myself publicly, but I'll DM you a link to the page on my library's site! They don't have device names listed but there are descriptions of what they do and pictures of the devices so if you're familiar maybe you can just figure it out?

  • What's the coolest thing your library has available to check out?

    Jump

  • You don't take it home, but my library has digitizing machines. You can digitize hundreds of old photos in minutes (it pulls them through and scans them like a deck of cards in a shuffling machine, so fast! And it is super sensitive so no/low risk of a photo jamming), and it can scan front and back at once, for those photos granny labeled on the back in her sweet cursive. You can digitize old home movies all the way back to those circular reel movies. All for free, as much as you want. The equipment is thousands of dollars and they just let me walk in and play with it. It's incredible

  • ‘Hamilton’ tickets donated to Boston Public School students went to admins’ sons

    Jump

  • I think the appropriate accountability here would be to for those administrators to have to enroll their children in public school. If they think that's a problem it's up to them to make the schools better. The administrators obviously think public school students don't need extra access to culture or expensive things, they're doing just fine.
