How is this a science meme?

I think the concept is that other people are innately empathetic. Doesn't really work these days, not sure if it ever did.

Depending on the cause:

Massage neck/stretch (if you have been at a computer/desk/reading for a while)

Drink water (2 glasses) and eat a snack with complex carbs and protein (if you aren't great at eating healthy regularly or drinking enough regularly)

Go for a walk or do cardio and get fresh air (sometimes your body gets angry you haven't moved enough. Also causes mood issues in some cases)

Take a nap (have you gotten enough sleep? Lack of sleep causes a pile of issues)

Have tea (caffeine and hydration help sometimes)

How are you emotionally? Sometimes having strong emotions can be draining and you need extra sleep and sometimes need to do cardio to use cortisol in a healthy way. Working through the emotions is also very important; figure out why you are feeling the way you are, what (if anything) can you do to respond to the situation (responding to others, altering where you are in relation to the problem, directly addressing the problem). Keeping and processing some (high energy or negative) emotions can cause you to have headaches. Cardio helps drain the energy otherwise spent experiencing the emotions for extended periods of time so you can process them faster.

Sure, I was guessing the numbers

50% don't like it, 10% don't care, 40% support it. The part that supports it is good at gerrymandering.

I got this during COVID after I started taking supplements (needed iron, vitamin d, b12), and biking. The second day when the nutrients took effect and I biked for a while, I ate some whole grains and took a poop any everything was wonderful. I stretched, slept well, everything. Take care of your body and it takes care of you (how it should be anyway, bodies may vary).

Seems like that were a single day late and it shouldn't significantly affect the delivery date. I couldn't worry about it until the 26th. They might have had a rough day in the shipping warehouse.

Everyone gets the same time now

I haven't seen any studies showing the birth rate is actually falling below previously recorded levels globally. I have seen the rate of births have slowed from an annual significant increase in population to an annual lesser increase in population. Still increasing population, but the rate at which we are increasing has slowed.

Thank you so much! This so so very thorough, I appreciate your insight!

I'll stick to pockets then, it seems like they might be a bit better if I'm just looking into a single type to deal with. We have an older washer but it seems pretty effective. Most recommended wash regimes are rinse, wash with detergent, rinse again, so I hope that's enough.

I've only looked at ones with snaps, a few different brands but to me they all look the same (online only). There's different fabrics that go against the skin based on brand but I don't know enough to know if one is better than another.

I don't know if leg gussets are really better or just seem like they should be better. More expensive brands have them, the one you suggested does, Nora's Nursery does too, but as far as I can tell that's the main difference between higher and lower end brands.

When you say per child, did they not hold up past a single child? Did you wash and dry them in machines? I've heard heat (drier specifically) can decrease the life of the waterproofing. Did you find you preferred the pocket or one piece better? What were your pros/cons? What made you decide on that brand? Did you try any other brands, and if so how did they compare?
