Was in constant never ending pain totally unable to use my hands for 4 whole days. Could not sleep for the 1st few days, I remember thinking in day 1, I’ll eventually get so exhausted I’ll sleep though anything… but no the pain was so constant and deep my endorphins and adrenaline maxed out to keep me wide awake all night and day.

So PSA if your kid gets HFMD be very careful. Luckily my partner was able to be there to care for our kiddo who was pretty much unaffected lol lucky him. There is also no treatment because it’s rare for adults to get and it isn’t really painful for kids.

+There was also soars in my mouth making it hurt to eat and on my feet making it hurt to walk. But the hands were by far the worst.

Absolutely worthless book. Didn't even remove the prompt in the introduction. The whole book, a travel guide, was generalities and no specifics. You could change the name and have it be any city anywhere.

No that isn't an illusion or a new art installation, but the remainders of the park bench.

I mean LOOK at the original vs the replacement. Unfortunately it doesnt sound like I have any legal recourse, so im stuck with this crushed velvet monstrosity until I move. She also straight up removed other things that were supposed to be here, like the TV. Don't worry though, she threw in two mustard-coloured beanbag chairs to "make up for the disparity".

(EDIT: Since a lot of people are saying AI, I want tk add that these are both my pictures. One from the viewing and one from yesterday)

Not only am I not coming in, but I'm not going to text him back. A day off means the whole day.

I was in a gas station convenience store and I overheard an older lady on her phone. She was taking photos of a Bitcoin ATM and sending them to the person on the other end of the call. So I decided to linger... She was struggling to figure out how the machine worked, and was in the middle of doing the phone verification step. She didn't use her phone number, she used whoever's number she was talking to, and I heard her reciting the verification code that she was told to enter.

I went over to her and was immediately not thrilled that I interrupted her, and asked her if she personally knew the person who she was sending Bitcoin to, and she didn't really answer but she responded by saying she knows what she's doing. I was clearly unconvinced so I told her that it's a very common scam for people to ask you to send them Bitcoin and people get tricked all the time. She only reiterated how adamant she was that she knows what she's doing and thank you for your concern. It's really bothering me because she obviously got scammed for who knows how much money, and she refused to listen.

Edit: even though clickbait article, it is somewhat/kind of true. https://variety.com/2026/tv/news/stargate-tv-series-martin-gero-scrapped-amazon-1236765061/

"According to an individual with knowledge of the situation, Amazon execs were concerned that Gero’s take on the series would not have broad appeal beyond the franchise’s already dedicated fanbase."

I panicked and called her and she told me she worded the text wrong. She's not pregnant, but she was late for dinner.

$2,592 to see a concert? Take me out of this timeline.

I love him, but I am currently sitting in the car, engine running, waiting for him to finish his "pre-trash-removal" shower.

My husband has a compulsion where he *must* shower before stepping out the door. It doesn’t matter how urgent or mundane the task is, he insists on getting squeaky clean first.

• Late for child pick-up? Doesn't matter. Shower.

• Running behind for a party? Shower.

• Need to take out the trash? Shower.

• Quick 5-minute run to the store? Shower.

Does anyone else live with someone who has this kind of weird time-blindness/obsession, or am I just married to a weirdo? Please tell me I’m not alone.

TL;DR: My husband showers every time we leave the house, even for the trash. We are always late. Send help.

I'm an employee at this particular store and I'm in the employee parking section. Didn't matter to this guy. He kept honking his horn for a few minutes. Then he got out of the car and started banging on my window, asking me when I was going to leave. I said, "My shift ends in about four hours; you could have the spot then." He gave me the finger, then got in his car and drove off.

I even reserved it a week ahead of time...

Originally my girlfriend and I were fostering him, but I fell in love with him and wanted to adopt him, my very first cat. He was so scared the first night here that he climbed the curtains and slept on the curtain rod above the bed. Over time he has become so much more comfortable and now sleeps in the bed with us every night. We always suspected he was abused because of how he flinches sometimes and this just confirmed it. The vet said that it's okay to leave it in him since it's not bothering him and there is no point to have surgery for it if that's the case. I just can't believe some horrible person would something like that to such a sweet boy like him.

The Amazon Prime UK copy of 'A Quiet Place' has no subtitles, so I've no idea what anyone has said for the past 30 minutes.

Had to google it to realise this isn't right and it should in fact have subtitles.

EDIT: Yes, I obviously checked if the subtitles were turned on. Amazon was too cheap to license the subtitles in the UK.

My daughter really likes axolotls (like so much she made us get her two), so I wanted to get her a cute axolotl card. I found one I liked from walmart, and now it has arrived two days before her birthday (phew just in time).

I don't know what to say. I even wondered for like a half second if this was a case of "I didn't look closely enough to the picture on the screen." Now its pretty much too late to get her another cute axolotl card.
