    This was an interesting comment that's opened my mind a little, so thanks for that.

    How about: "conscripts can only be sourced from those who voted yes"?

    I agree with your point, but I'm struggling with your numbers... Is it $9,000.00/hr or $900,000/HR?

    Editting myself to add: either is a horrific amount for one man to earn

    I'd be interested to know why they thought the "door" wall gap (in the right external wall) had a lintel, that seems like work and cost for no reward.

    I got an oral b toothbrush (primary selling point for me, was the pressure sensor that alerts you if you're pressing too hard against your teeth, I think I paid around €150 for it back then), well over 8 years ago, and it's still going strong. The battery still easily holds a week's charge too, which is great for holidays

    I mean, he looks strong, but look how hard he's having to work to hold up his phone... I can do that with one hand while on the loo and barely even have to flex!

    I've found that some games can still play after you've cut them off from the internet (in app settings from the phones general settings) but will no longer be able to display ads (and I assume microtransactions also won't work then). Which might make some of the options you've currently ruled out work for you?

  • Hello dads, I'll be a dad myself shortly, and it's entirely planned, we discussed the idea and then worked towards making it happen. My wife is over the moon and loving the whole process and I'm struggling to see it as a positive change. All I'm seeing is more bills and tasks. I want to be excited and enthusiastic during the pregnancy (and of course afterwards) but I'm struggling to see this as a positive change for our next - at least - 5 years. It's causing some stress between my wife and I, when really I'd much prefer we were bonding now in preparation for the stress our relationship is going to need to endure after the baby arrives. I guess this is partly just venting, I feel like anyone I know that I might say this to, would think I'm a bad person considering it was entirely planned and now I'm not feeling it after its too late to undo, but if anyone has some ideas on how I can focus more on the positives (I do see them... watching their personality growing, seeing the world from their fresh perspective, a sense of investment in the future, etc. I just struggle to focus on them) of this and less on the incoming bills and sleepless night and relationship stress, so my wife and I can bond, it'd mean a lot to me. I'm also concerned that I'm seeing the baby as a problem instead of a... Source of joy? and that this might mean I don't really have a natural parental instinct, so I won't love it like I should, but instead see it as a series of chores and costs and problems.

    Hello everyone, This is my first post here, and I just want to share a small achievement. I find often that if I drank alcohol yesterday I'm much more likely to drink it again today, and yesterday for the first day in around 2 weeks I had no alcohol, this is making it much easier to have none today. Anyway, that's all, and it's not a big deal I just wanted to share it.
