@thatthingido2 @TiffaniMarie483 I gave my never-on-the-curve 1yo chicken liver pate, full-fat Greek yogurt, pudding, &cookies to put on weight and avoid an NG tube. It worked. Find what he’ll eat, think outside the box, aim for maximum calories. Also, some kids are just little and it’s ok but makes drs twitchy

@TiffaniMarie483 You know all that stuff he isn't supposed to eat? Give it to him. Specifically, ice cream. Ice cream, as much as he can eat, every single day.

My 3 yo is small for his age. Like, really small. Born at 5 lb and then stayed in the 1st percentile for weight. We’ve had all sorts of tests run but no answers. Doctors are now pushing growth hormones. I’m not too keen on the idea. Any alternatives?

Just finished this waiting room knitting project. I’ll weave in the ends and then block it later today. The yarn is on the itchier side, so it remain to be seen if anyone will want to wear this cowl now that it’s complete.

@Corbienest Most jobs aren’t done in a large space for a large group of people all at once. You can tell your accountant, “You did a really great job on this, thank you!” directly and in close proximity. It’s impractical for everyone to file past the singer or comic and say “great job!”

Why do we only clap for performers when they do a good job?

I’m not usually a bulky yarn fan, but these mittens are knitting up so quickly that I am changing my mind!

@Corbienest Remember when you could just put a tv down on top of a dresser and turn it on?

Once upon a time you could put a TV on the wall and turn it on and that was it. 45 minutes later I’m still trying to set up this stupid TV so it can use features I don’t want and never plan to use 😭

@alexthechick I agree that gift-giving should never be a test. That takes the joy out of it!

@alexthechick If I want a thing, I tell my husband and he gets it, or he tells me to buy it. On gift-giving occasions, he seems to enjoy picking something out for me himself, and I always enjoy the surprise. I have no expectation that he’ll read my mind. There is no pressure. It works for us.

Yeah. See. I tell people what I want because I consider the whole oh you should know that person well enough to get them something they want without being told to be an insane test that is wildly anxiety inducing and makes me hate all of humanity. So. There's that.
Uppity Hobbit: Maker of Things@uppityhobbit

Here’s the thing If your woman says “I don’t need anything for Valentine’s Day” and then gets big mad at you for not doing anything- YES. That’s a lie. Women. Don’t say things that aren’t true. However. Men. Let’s be honest. If she says “Yes. I want a Valentine please.” How fun is that? How do you feel about it? If she goes one further and even tells you exactly what she wants? Do you feel all warm and fuzzy and “oh I can’t wait to delight her with my compliance!” Probably not. Most people don’t like to be dictated to. And how fun is the gift when you had to tell him precisely what to get? Not fun at all. At the bottom of it all, for both partners. If this is the person you love- you KNOW what they like and what will make them smile. (If you don’t, get on with learning it or admit you don’t love well). Unless the relationship is very very new, you know whether she wants a little something, a big something, or truly doesn’t care about this made up holiday. Know how to make your partner smile CARE about making your partner smile Do it as often as you like and how it works for you both and the internet’s opinions be damned.

@JoshPhillipsPhD It would be fascinating to see Wuthering Heights set as a psychological thriller instead of a romance, but I don’t think we’ll ever be so fortunate.

@Corbienest Sherlock. Also, if the characters could be updated to 2026-level tech savviness, Endeavor. Excellent accents, it would mean I was kidnapped in or around Oxford, and the soundtrack would be excellent.

@SamanthaRedeemd 1st collation is a packet of Bel-Vita biscuits, or two hard boiled eggs by 10-11am. 2nd collation is a Larabar and a handful of almonds, or a cup of soup at 2-3pm. Dinner is a normal meal at 7pm. I drink coffee in the morning, a cup of tea in the afternoon, maybe some juice.

So, I know fasting can be defined as having 1 full meal and 2 smaller meals that do not add up to 1 full meal in a day. That said, I know different people may choose to do less on days of fasting. If y'all don't mind me asking, what's your approach for a day of fasting?

Sometimes you have to trust your mom gut (after double checking you’re not being silly with your husband) and not participate in something that your immediate social group sees no problem with 🫠

@mrs_alyse At the risk of being a downer, I’ve found every religion-based FB group I’ve ever joined to be disedifying, and a temptation against charity. I am sure some of that is due to my own faults and failings, but I know it’s not *all* me. It’s especially true for female-only groups.

I took the leap to join a Christian wive's group on Facebook, and the first post I see is about vaccines. 🫠 Idk what I was thinking joining a group at this point. I was hoping for something to maybe distract from things a bit. But nope.

@kalezelden It feels surreal. I can’t help thinking this must have been how the dawning of the Industrial Revolution felt. You are viewing a change already creeping across the horizon towards you, and there is simply no way to know how much your life will change, nor how soon.

My son was listening to some deep-cut 90's rap and I walked into his room and started singing along and when I tell you how badly it ruined his day that his old white mom was hip to his new obscure musical discovery . . . the annoyance was spiritual.
