And I justed posted about being emotionally deprived. Which suckers double, because I had a bed, clothes, food. But no toddler artwork, no children's songs, no out very small birthdays. We did Santa Claus, so yes we got a gift, but I would have preferred love and time from my parents, instead of being a burden and unwanted all the time. That messed me up. I would have loved to go that game, tickets and all. So loving!

I remember my Mum doing a really great ghost story, told in the dark while passing round e.g peeled grapes for eyeballs, a sand filled gardening glove that had been in the freezer for a hand, beads for teeth etc. Best time ever and I never realised until I was an adult that it had been done on a shoestring because we were skint at the time. Inventive thought can provide better memories than mere money and knowing you’re loved is priceless!

This made me cry! I also didn't realize until I was almost an adult that my family was "poor" because of all the amazing things my parents did to make life interesting and fun! My favorite memory is that once a year The Wizard of Oz would play on CBS. Since we didn't have capable or a vcr, this was a big deal for three little girls! My dad would move the best chair (a huge old recliner) into the middle of the room, pop popcorn in some out of date popcorn maker, and split a glass bottle of Coke three ways. Covered in blankets, snacking, watching a cool movie, and getting to stay up late was one of the greatest parts of my childhood!

The innovative line of Undercover Colors works by changing color when it comes in contact with any date rape drug. To test a drink for safety, wearers simply and discretely dip the tip of a polished fingernail into a beverage. Should the drink be spiked, the nail polish will change colors. It’s a fast and reliable way to ensure the wearer’s safety. https://projectknow.com/blog/can-this-nail-polish-really-detect-rape-drugs-in-your-drink/

Important note: this product never actually existed. At the time of these articles talking about it, they were looking for funds to develop it. They never got it to work. They eventually gave up but did instead develop a device (SipChip), similar in concept to a pregnancy test, that does work remarkably well.

I could have used this a couple of years ago. I'd just moved to a new apartment and was delighted to see that a friend of mine lived next door. She also said that her dad, who I knew and had started to trust, was staying at her place as his electricity had been cut off because he hadn't paid the bill. She invited me for a beer the next evening and I went a we chatted for a bit, she said she was tired and was going to bed as she knew her baby would be up during the night for feeding so I followed her to the bedroom and peeped at her baby and said he was so cute, gave her a hug and went into the kitchen to pick up my bag. He had poured a tiny shot glass with schnapps and I thought ok, drink that and then go home. I remember absolutely nothing until I woke up in my bed totally n*ke*. I've got epilepsy, I never sleep without a nightie. Got up, dressed and was going to the bathroom when I passed the kitchen and realised he had been here, he had smoked several cigarettes so must have been

One great aspect of "Dudes & Dubs" is how it celebrates such a wide range of wins, including accomplishments from men that are still sometimes considered taboo like taking care of their mental health and beating addiction. It’s no secret that men are expected to be less emotional than women, but the fact is that they just aren’t. A recent study from Scientific Reports followed the emotional journeys of 142 men and women over the course of 75 days, and they found that “the male participants’ emotions fluctuated just as much as the women’s did”.
While misconceptions about the emotional fragility of women are often used to portray women as weak, these stereotypes hurt all genders. Women are expected to be unable to handle their emotions, but men are expected to not show any emotions at all. This unrealistic expectation often leads men to bottle up their emotions and develop unhealthy coping mechanisms. By encouraging men to openly share how they've overcome battles with mental health issues, body image issues, addiction and more, Dudes Posting Their W's shows other men that being honest and vulnerable is something to celebrate.

This is a very sweet sentiment, but this story is not true. There are numerous technical issues with this story. There is no way they would take blood from a young child. They also would not take blood from anyone and then immediately give it to another patient, there needs to be testing and other QC measures that have to be done. Also, hospital labs are not set up or equipped for blood donation. In situations that Jim Clark is describing, they would contact the local blood bank and get the blood from them, or surrounding hospitals. Also, not having o- blood is almost unheard of as it is the universal donor, and hospitals always have a large stock of it.

Minors can have their parents approval to donate. The blood testing could've happened, just wasn't mentioned in the story. A lot could've been left out on purpose to make the story get to the point faster. From my understanding it depends on where you are, a lot of hospitals do not in fact have O- blood, specifically smaller towns or countries. With all due respect, I really think you're just speculating. But outside of everything you said I've read similar stories online, and the story could've been stolen.

Dudes Posting Their W’s also encourages men to be great fathers and husbands. Traditionally, men have always been held to lower standards than women when it comes to domestic responsibilities. Media doesn’t help either, as countless TV shows and movies portray fathers as incompetent counterparts to strict, bossy (but intelligent) mothers. According to a 2021 study from the Pew Research Center, double standards continue to persist when it comes to household responsibilities. 59% of women said that they take care of more of the chores and responsibilities in the home, and 74% of mothers surveyed said that they do more to manage their children’s schedule and activities. Similarly, Pew found in 2019 that mothers do their families' grocery shopping and meal preparation 80% of the time. While cooking dinner is not really an accomplishment a father should be patted on the back for, any encouragement that will lead men to be better husbands and fathers is a win in my book.

Why do stores throw away leftover food? If food is fine, why waste? If you don't want to give it to homeless people (not a good thing, of course), at least donate them to charity that feeds hungry people. Why throw them in the trash if the food is not spoilt? At this point, I am genuinely asking this because I cannot, for the world, figure out what harm would it cause to the owners to donate the food that they would not use anyway. Are they that cruel? Or is it something else?
Jo Jones 3 years ago
I think it was a few cases when homeless people sued companies for food poisoning , so prospect of liability stops them from donations . Shame as a good deed of trying to feed the hungry should never be preyed upon

I was an exhausted mom of 2 and 3 year old boys. I had been parenting on my own while my husband figured out his drug problems. A friend paid for my gas to travel 1,000 miles to her ranch and help out for a month & to get a break. I had driven about 500 miles and couldn't keep my eyes open any longer but I didn't have $$ for a motel. We parked at a rest stop, I rolled the windows down some, set out snacks & unbuckled the boys so they'd be more comfortable (who were sleeping). When I woke up from my nap, the boys had rolled the widows all the way down and were sitting on the window sills waving at the truckers and other rest stop visitors. I started crying because I realized anything could have happened while I slept. But here is the nice stranger part: a couple came over and told me, "Don't worry, dear. We saw you were exhausted when you pulled in so we just set up our lunch here and kept an eye on the boys so they stayed safe."
It’s also important for men to be encouraged to talk openly about their mental health and substance abuse battles because they are more likely to be silently struggling. The National Institute on Drug Abuse reports that males misuse drugs at a younger age than women and are more likely to be exposed to drugs and alcohol in their adolescence than girls. And according to a survey of people who had a history of substance abuse in their families, almost twice as many people reported that their fathers struggled with addiction, compared to the amount of people who said their mothers struggled.
These issues often stem from mental health struggles, like depression, and according to Fred Rabinowitz, a professor of psychology at the University of Redlands in California, “Male depression sometimes manifests through the ‘male code’ that says you cannot show weakness, sadness, or vulnerability.” Without feeling like they can open up, some men sadly turn to substance abuse instead. It’s great that Dudes Posting Their W’s encourages men to share their struggles to show that they’re not alone and to hopefully prove to other men struggling that they will be celebrated for taking care of their health.

Umm, why wasn't this baby in the NICU if she was this small and was stopping breathing? This story makes no sense to me. He is implying that he is a Dr since he said he delivered a baby. He is also implying that he just sat with this baby somewhere and spent 2 nights and days rubbing the baby to keep her breathing, ignoring all his other patients, not utilizing all the nurses and equipment and treatments that would be available? Yeah, not buying it. There are way to many medical inaccuracies for this to be a true story. It is a nice story, but 100% did not happen.
B Harrison 3 years ago (edited)
"She kept stopping breathing".... Hmm. Is this man really a medical professional? Not to mention since when do they allow a 450g out of NICU and to be held, especially when she is having such difficulty breathing that she's stopped multiple times? This story is fishy and smells of BS to me.

My 6 y/o was 660 grams at birth. A nicu girl near him was this size above. I always said she was the size if a breath. She was pretty much the size if a 3 week old kitten. For reference ti those who have never experienced the wonder if the nicu. His legs were the width of my pinkie finger. At 6, his normal 6 y/o index finger is about the size as mommy's pinkie finger.
Friendships between men and women are also a bit different, so sometimes men need to be more intentional about emotionally supporting one another. According to psychologist Tarra Bates-Duford, men “tend to prefer more activity-based friendships” while female friendships “tend to be more dependent on face-to-face contact, are more emotional” and include more sharing of thoughts and feelings and providing emotional support. This does not mean that the bonds between bros can’t be strong, but it does mean they are less likely to be lifting up one another and celebrating their accomplishments. Men might really appreciate a post on Dudes Posting Their W’s every once in a while, if their friends in real life aren’t as likely to openly congratulate and support them.

There are plenty of reasons why we should celebrate our accomplishments, regardless of how big or small they may be. Despite living in a fast-paced age where we’re encouraged to always be in a hurry to get to the next thing, it’s important to give our brains a moment to really appreciate our successes. Having a healthy amount of pride can even be a great way to lead us to more success in the future. As psychologist David DeSteno says in his book Emotional Success: The Power of Gratitude, Compassion, and Pride, “These feelings—gratitude, compassion, and pride—are easier to generate than the willpower and self-denial that underpin traditional approaches to self-control and grit. And while willpower is quickly depleted, prosocial emotions actually become stronger the more we use them.”

Apparently, most people even want us to share our successes. Now, don’t go too crazy; there’s a fine line between sharing and boasting, of course. But resist the temptation to keep your accomplishments to yourself, for fear of being labeled a braggart. According to studies on the topic, loved ones tend to feel insulted or patronized when people they’re close to keep their successes a secret. Even if you’re scared you might trigger a bit of jealousy, there’s nothing wrong with sharing your achievements so that you, and your loved ones, can celebrate them.

Child molestation and rape are the crimes that truly merit a three strikes law (honestly I'd say two strikes is more than enough). The offenders rarely learn anything from prison other than to not leave any witnesses in future. There are far too many sex offenders who get plea deals and slaps on the wrist again and again and again. I say first offense you get a long sentence and then lifelong monitoring. If you do it again you're just locked up for life because clearly you can't be trusted in society.

Sharing our successes also builds confidence. If we never acknowledge what we’ve accomplished, our brains tend to just ignore all subsequent achievements, and we never gain satisfaction from anything. But it’s important to combat the negativity bias that exists in our brains, which makes us more likely to dwell on our failures than our successes, by celebrating whenever we can. “When you are confident and hopeful, that improves your ability to focus naturally,” Benjamin and Sarah Cheyette said in a piece for Psychology Today. “When you feel that way, you are more likely to concentrate again on a challenging task in the future because you will feel motivated to get that feeling back.”

After my parents divorced when I was 4, I lived with my dad for the next 12 years. To this day I feel like I had the best childhood. I mean I still visited my mom on weekends and holidays, but dad still took the time to learn girl stuff like hair braiding and my little ponies. I love my "Faija". Best dad ever, for me at least. 🙂

The Cheyettes also note that there’s nothing wrong with celebrating tiny victories that take us a tiny step closer to our goals because they help us build momentum. “The momentum you gain from each small success is what will allow you to stay on course toward greater and greater achievements and successes, including achieving your big, long-term goals. Each celebration doesn’t have to be a big one. You don’t have to hire a band and blast confetti each time you do something right. Recognition of yourself and taking a moment to recognize and register how it feels to have done well is all you really need.”

I found one of them nearly stolen, the plastic half taken off the cardboard backing and the car halfway out. I brought it up to him to just hand it over. He was thankful for me showing it to him and gave it to me. It may not be worth much of any dollar amount since it has little chips in the paint and such, but I still have and cherish it.

Honestly? I understand the wife. Not everybody has the ability to raise a disabled child, especially mentally impaired one. It requires far more time, patience and money that 'normal' parenting (which is demanding itself). Also don't forget that not all cases of Down syndrome look the same. Some are practically as capable as their fully healthy peers. Some need constant care, gets agressive and are a big burden overall. Maybe she knew for sure that the newborn will be heavily impaired? Maybe the wife knew she is not mentally strong enough to deal with raising disabled kid? If she wanted to give the child up for both her and the baby's sake then I fully support her.

Not everyone can handle the mental, emotional, physical and financial aspects of taking care of a special needs child. Yes, some of those people are just being selfish, but others have their reasons that we don't know about. The mom realized this and left, which is for the best. If she did not want to raise the child and still stuck around, that sweet baby might grow up with neglect and abuse from a parent that resents it. That baby is with someone who loves it and is going to give it all the care and love it deserves, and that is more than a lot of children, special need or not, can say.

For the most part, the snakes that bite the most commonly, aren't venomous at all, or have less potent venom. The Inland Taipan, the worlds most venomous snake, only has bitten one person on record. Often, snakes will "dry bite" which is biting without injecting venom. Also, the more potent the venom, the snake might not inject as much.

A few years ago I was traveling to a conference with a bunch of colleagues. We were on a small commercial flight where they told us they were redistributing the luggage in the hold because of weight issues. Then they said to balance the weight all the men needed to sit in the back of the plane and the women in the front. That resulted in several larger-sized women trading seats with petite men which seemed to not really accomplish what they wanted. Of course, we also discovered upon landing that they hadn't ever loaded the luggage of at least 12 of us. Then couldn't locate the bags at all at the origin airport. Then 48 hours later someone from the lost baggage department of a different airline at a different airport discovered all the missing bags which had mysteriously had the check-in tags removed. And that's how I ended up shopping for professional attire with my boss and the head of HR, and why I'll never fly Air Canada again.

I've had this old, beat up chair that someone spilled paint on since I first left my parents home. I can probably count on one hand how many times I've sat in it. For some of unknown reason I've just always kept it with me. When I moved back, my mom saw the chair, sat in it and said that she'd always wondered what happened to it. Turns out that my father built it in a shop class while they were dating in highschool. My father passed away suddenly when I was 21. He was finally figuring out the whole "awesome dad" thing after struggling at it for so many years and then he was just gone. Without even knowing it, I was carrying an unknown piece of him around the country with me for the last 32 years. Thanks for the chair dad. I use it quite often now and miss you every time I do.

Except news sources tried to confirm it happened and all agencies he mentioned (along with Border Patrol/Customs) responded with saying they’ve never heard of this situation before or after it apparently happened. BTW, his real name is Bryan Shills and he hawks Bitcoin. Under his alias he mentions this post and his daughter two times in a vague sense and promotes Bitcoin 23 times, with links and graphics of why you, the everyday person, should invest. As it’s basically a pyramid scheme, his story is to tug at heartstrings and get you to buy.

It's kind of suspect that he's a cryptocoin developer and made sure to point out that his journey to find and collect his daughter was funded by Bitcoin. And that reputable news outlets didn't cover the story after he gained attention on Reddit, etc. with his thread. If true, I'm grateful a young woman is now safe from sex traffickers, but it sounds more like a ploy to drive value of digital money.

I don't know why you're getting down voted; when I Google this story I primarily get this single tweet, plus a bunch of Bitcoin publicity. I'd love to know more about this story, but it's hard so far to find out the truth.

There's a LOT more to this story that's a real rollercoaster. The good stuff: the dad only needed about $5k (Canadian) for the chemo but they raised almost $50k by the end. The bad: a lot of high profile streamers tried to jump on his bandwagon, boost themselves & use their own platforms to raise money on his "behalf" after the fact, then tried to run off with the $. The kid/dad made out fine but it was a complete sh*tshow with everything else.

@Something Jay. You automatically lose all credibility when you use the terms "butt hurt" and "snowflake". That's just a way to blame someone else for your bad behavior. That's like the mob blaming informants, when really they just don't want to get in trouble for their terrible deeds. Now, having gotten that out of the way, I think the opposite is true of the trial; it was a huge victory, because for once, we listened to the victim and exposed the abuser. And, that's really the point, to listen and not jump to conclusions, to seek the truth wherever that may lead.
Hobby Hopper 3 years ago
I've come to realize there are 2 wildly different narratives about this case. I didn't watch or read any traditional media coverage of the case, but I did watch a significant portion of the actual televised case itself, as well as YT commentary from several very knowledgeable practicing lawyers. It was very informative, and I thought the verdict was the right call. There was evidence suppressed, which had it been allowed, probably would have shifted the outcome even further in JD's favor. And yet, so many people on social media have come out saying they're sick of hearing about it, that JD was terrible toward AH, that the trial was unfair because of his celebrity status, etc. It was a real disconnect from what I witnessed. That's when I realized that traditional media was pushing a very different narrative, trying to spin the story. I feel like there was a time, in the US at least, when most media outlets took journalistic integrity very seriously. No longer.
Arnavet 3 years ago
No no. I watched the ENTIRE trial, he's not an angel but he didn't do what she claimed he did. Her story kept changing and they showed she lied. The way she abused him was freaking awful. He had some bad moments but it was NOTHING compared to that gaslighting and belittling and everything else she did.

Not insulting. This is how my husband and his brother communicate. Anyone who listens to them assume that they hate each other, but I know these two would die for each other, that they are the best of friends. It's odd but men communicate with their own language. And no, you can't be subtle, they respond better with directness.

Yes, I suppose they are but it still requires two people to lift something that weighs more than what they are permitted to lift. I'd assume they also need an idea of how to balance the bags accordingly so that nothing is crushed during travel. So between safety precautions, logistical planning, and adequate staffing to ensure these, they charge according to weight categories. That's how I always understood it.
