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

What do you count as innocent? Like doesn't use products made in factories with human rights violations? I'm never gonna hit a million, but economists are saying we all need to have a Mil or three in order to retire? I know a couple million airs who seem like normal people, they're just business owners?

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.

It's not just totally unattractive guys trying to punch above their weight, it's also mid range guys who pick the hottest girl in the group and then sulk when she goes home with sometime else after doing nothing to make themselves her best option. And the sulking is pretty transparent which further lowers their attractiveness, and that kind of behavior definitely makes it back to everyone in the group. Guys really say no one will date me and literally only mean their first top choice won't date them.

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.

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 .

Your comment implies though I've been pregnant three times, I don't know how to calculate pregnancy age. Thank you for the explanation, but my miscarriages were at 8 and 12 weeks. What's crazy is that you may not experience the effects of a miscarriage for a week or so after the "baby" has already died/stopped growing. So it's possible my little lizard baby was only 7 weeks along.

Edit: grammar

Yeah, but that's just a mindset. You can turn that mindset on in the Florida summers too. When you get in your car and it's an oven until the AC cools it you just pretend you're in a sauna, breathing that hot air from the coals. You're sweating while you're doing a job/project, you just pretend it's like hot yoga.

A hot tub feels amazing. The heat can too when you decide it does. When you finally give into the heat and decide you're just gonna be sweaty today, it feels great.

This isn't completely accurate. I had a miscarriage at 8 weeks and I passed a little lizard-y thing. It looked a bit like when a lizard egg breaks and the lizard inside isn't done yet. I had another miscarriage at 12 weeks and passed a little baby like the size of a quarter, still alien but less lizard-y. I don't understand how this article can say the below. Am I a freak of nature that grows babies at breakneck pace? The doctors seemed to think everything was normal for all of my pregnancies, including the successful one.

This image shows the gestational sac of a nine-week pregnancy. This is everything that would be removed during an abortion and includes the nascent embryo, which is not easily discernible to the naked eye.

 

Is anyone else having the issue where you're 30 comments deep into a post, you reply to a comment and when you submit it refreshes the whole post making you lose your spot in the comments?

Is there anything I can do to prevent this?

I'm on a Google Pixel if that's relevant.
