Yeah, I had a bunch of eggs that got cracked from a dropped carton or something. Made a couple of quiches and froze one. Still great when reheated later on.

The more reasonable christians out there who still believe that aren’t dramatic enough for the headlines.

As someone who has two living IVF babies, 8 frozen embryos remaining, and is also Christian, this line struck a particularly strong chord:

“Nobody understands more that an embryo is not a child, than the person yearning for that embryo to be a child.”

Yeah, I watched this a few days ago and also came away thinking it was one of the better episodes I’ve seen.

Have a 9 month old and am also concerned. At least I am on maternity leave until September and so he’s not in daycare yet.

I work in construction and when I was younger and single I did a couple years ago a remote work site; two weeks on and one week off rotations. We all stayed in the company provided camp while there. Definitely formed some strong friendships with my coworkers while there and made/saved a ton of money. It was an interesting experience.

I was a field engineer but jobs in the trades are always in high demand pretty much everywhere.

I make butter chicken from sometimes but if I’m doing a “too lazy to cook” version it’s with jarred sauce and leftover rotisserie chicken.

I also heard that one floating around the engineering school I attended.

I work in construction and I don’t know that I agree. They’re digging a tunnel for a road, not mining, and earthworks crews generally consistent of equipment operators and labourers.

My dad has a gun licence (Canadian) and interestingly, he mentioned there was a place in the application where your spouse (and/or former spouse) must sign off on your application too. I can see how that might hinder a few violent exes.

I mean, if you’re breastfeeding they do get like that sometimes, but the placement of the boobs so far apart is what weirds me out

All radiation (x-rays included), radio waves, and visible light are on the EM spectrum. It’s just the wavelength that differentiates them.

The hormones really carry you through. Lol. And at least it’s relatively short with a positive end goal.

I often just cook the beans in a slow cooker on low overnight. No soaking necessary.

Yeah, I know little of IT (as I’m a mech engineer, in construction) but find the story telling to be so good it’s one of my favorite podcasts.

Yeah, this is probably the highest educated genre by necessity.

I hear you. I spent most of fmy social time as a teenager in those new-fangled chat rooms in the mid-late nineties and I don’t think I ever really learned to socialize properly in person. Lol. That said, I don’t find the newness of this platform too daunting. I was one of the people who left Digg back in the day too.

I do miss my May 2023 baby bumps group now that I’m on maternity leave and have a lot of down time feeding the little one though. It’s not like it’s easy for me to leave the house with a toddler and a newborn even if I was to join a real life parenting social group.
