I don’t get this logic. Me and everyone close to me already tips at least 20% on food. Why would we suddenly have a problem with paying 20% more and not tipping? It’s the same amount of money?

I put a little string of fake pearls on my daughter about every day, and they were mine and my sisters’ when I was a toddler, so they’re about 30. I don’t know how they’ve survived so many toddlers cause they’d break with any real pulling. She loves them though and is very careful with them. She also uses tiny baby sized silverware from my mom’s babyhood(early 70s) It’s cute and funny to watch her use miniature stuff that’s just her size

I think that’s the oldest thing other than furniture (we use my great grandfather’s bedroom suite)

But they’re worse than cheaters. They’re cheating off of hallucinations. It’s like you’re cheating off of spark notes for the movie instead of the book, totally unaware that they made a bunch of changes. They’re stupid cheaters.

I am so so sorry, but over 30 years already includes half the nineties.

That said, smoking still looks cool, even now, it just smells so bad it’s not worth it

Yeah, that’s why they’re trying to make questioning Trump’s greatness a mental disorder. So they can identify us as irredeemable to dispose of us

The only time I have ever cared is when I’ve gotten a bonus. The tax rate is much higher on a bonus. I’d much rather my company just pay me $25 more a week than a bonus in December.

Y’all are crazy. Very responsible. I drop my phone every single day. Often outside onto the concrete. I break my screen protectors all the time. I’ve only ever messed up an actual screen once (stupid like wrap around screen so the case was not sufficient). I buy extremely cheap cases and screen protectors, and they always work.

I’m clumsy, but also I guess thoughtless. I’m constantly bending over to pick up my kid and it just tumbles out of my pockets. Idk. The screen protectors last between one week and 6 months. Usually a couple of months, but then the cracks/chips are so little I just take ages to replace it, so I’m only buying one like twice a year. You can get 3 for under 10 bucks so it’s basically worth the cost to not have to be precious about your phone all the time.

A parent shouldn’t be letting their single digit aged child have unsupervised access to the Internet. Agreed that they shouldn’t be publicizing it, but this idea that parents should be letting their kids have secrets when they’re so little is one way dangerous adults take advantage of kids.

You don’t get to decide the destination of your teleportation

It could be that the O OP had the tiny kitchen photo first like their sister texted them 'look wtf is on this old game box" and then they just Googled the second larger photo of a game box for context

Oh boy I originally read this as that we needed to pick one of your listed hills and get behind it, and I liked the concept

That’s not a great take.

Children are people, don’t make them wear diapers! They can pee anywhere they want!

Children are people! Don’t limit their screen time! If you just give them plenty of toys, they will be capable of limiting their own screen time!

Children are people! They are resilient! Let them watch R-rated films and have unfettered access to the Internet!

No one is talking about putting a leash on an eight year old. We’re talking about letting a 14 month old get to experience the privilege of walking in a public place rather than being trapped on Mom’s hip or in a stroller.

Yeah, I’m a normie, I’m tech literate adjacent-adjacent, by which I mean I’m here on lemmy rather than Facebook, but no. Me and my peers are not pressing ctrl anything. I don’t even know what gui means. Something user interface? I’m not proud to be this dumb, but I’m pretty sure most “regular” people are in this boat with me. I was the third most tech literate person in my entire office last year with a bunch of millennials simply because I was willing to Google things.

I mean the fascination is with money. People are looking for ways to pay their rent.

Thank you for the response

That’s all wonderful advice. I’m trying to make scrambled eggs. It’s one of the baby’s favorite foods. Any advice there?

I’m glad I am reading your comments. I am that kitchen novice. And so is my husband. We’ve been trying to move away from Teflon since we had a baby, and are struggling to make stainless steel worth the extra time it takes to clean. I’ve been feeling very frustrated that despite trying to do the heat it up and use oil thing, it’s still awful, and I figured either we’re dumb and bad or everyone online is just lying. We just went back to Teflon, because people online say it should be perfectly non stick and then also that you can only clean the stainless steel with a soft cloth. It’s hell.

Pretty sure that’s the point, that the family isn’t allowed to withdraw consent due to the insane “abortion” laws. This is so far past abortion. America is disgusting and grotesque.

Yes, when I was lucky enough that I could survive on part time income, my four day work week was glorious. I used Mondays to just rest. I could actually enjoy my weekends AND be productive because I wasn’t trying to also rest in prep for the coming week.

And The 2K is gone pretty quick purely from adding the baby to your insurance. Boo.
