"After selling everything I owned and moving West with my soulmate, I met an amazing herbalist and chef who took me under her wing. I have begun a lifestyle of eating all organic, non GMO food, and studying/utilizing many different herbs. I eat mostly vegetarian, and as much raw food as possible. I compliment this with yoga, breathing techniques and lots of meditation. I have completely transformed and the majority of my health issues are disappearing. I learn to love myself a little more everyday and have blossomed in a way I never thought possible. I am so thankful for discovering my willpower, and for the guidance and support of my teachers and loved ones. ",

"no your ignorance is laughable. Physiology doesn't work that way. Loosing 3 pounds week after week after week, especially for 6 months straight is extremely difficult.

Your body plateaus due to this adaptation and weight loss will stall. period. ",

"If you're looking for flaws... i can give you plenty!\n\nTeeth are rotted from not taking care of myself\n\nI can be very arrogant, in fact I can almost guarantee I have a better understanding of astronomy than you. For example, Our sun is a main sequence star smack dab in the middle of its life. It's almost a million miles wide and 93 million miles from us. Light takes about 8.5 mins to reach us after spending hundreds of thousands of years suck in the sun's interior because of its incredible density. The next closest star is a brown dwarf called Proxima Centauri, at 4.3 light years away. I think 4.3. I also believe they found planets in the habitable zone. That's off top of my head. \n\nI'd kill you in computer tec- when I look at anything from a radio to a phone, I can see the guts. Four basic components. Diodes, resistors, transistors, and capacitors. Like the case is clear and I can see the flow of electrons around the board. My first CPU was a Z80 so if you're young you might be better at things like CCS than me. Or object oriented programming for that matter, i'm used to BASIC.\n\nSee? Arrogant as fuck. Also if not for autocorrect everyone would think I'm 3.\n\nHmmm. Generalized anxiety. This one turns me into a deer in headlights when I could be doing something good. I doubt myself. even simple stupid things, like ordering a pizza. Sometimes I just cant.\n\nSomethings I am sooo thick headed about!

"Lol, I meant nerd as in you quit smoking. But don’t worry, I only use insults as a defensive mechanism.\n\nThat is a good distinction between nerd and geek though!",
"Yeah, smoking screws with brain chemistry on the level of heroine. Like any addiction, its OCD and a misuse of the brain's reward system. Quitting shouldn't be done in a state of depression if it's not immediately life threatening. I wanted to make sure it wouldn't break me, and drinking is deadly for me.

You'll find they're extremely positive and will share if you're willing. but I run 3-5 miles a day, i joined a running club. I've ran til bloody, crying, and beaten. Break yourself, rebuild stronger. Stop looking for excuses to not try. I know you havent tried hard enough or you wouldnt blame your gender.",
"All good, no worries!",
"You look great man! Keep up the good work!",

I am under medical care and it has been proven that woman of a certain age are battling more than just calorie in vs calorie out. Not an excuse, it’s an explanation. I work out and watch every calorie, my husband did nothing but give up alcohol for 2 months and lost 15lbs; something that has taken me over a year to do with consistency and a trainer and a nutritionist. It is a real thing and if there were any woman my age on this thread I would get an amen. ",
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have jumped like that. Seriously that was not good of me as I believe to each their own, just be true to yourself, as only you can know if that is an excuse. Just saying 1466 miles run = 52 lbs of burnt carbon. I dont see sex in that equation. Then again I ran 10 miles in full on alcohol withdrawals (hallucinations, just short of seizures) i was so mad at myself for slipping... prob not the sharpest knife in the drawer! I barely remember it. I know I sweat this thick oily sweat... lots of it. eww",

"Not that I know where the specific Volcano in the photo is or where it is located but a couple of points from someone who lives at the feet of an active Volcano, which I snowboard on all winter and has erupted in the 5 years I have lived here.\n\n\nMany Volcanoes have a specific type of lava/gas build up an release that I'm sure a geologist could explain much clearer that tend to ensure any eruptions are a slow syrup like dribble rather than a huge explosion, as such any lava danger is minimal, and ash tends not to be a big concern either, it just kind of sent a few impressive explosions and then dribbled over for a night or two, even eruptions prior to my moving here had never been problematic.\n\nI mean sure every few hundred thousand years maybe the whole thing will level a town, explode it's own top off and throw boulders for miles, but that's the kind of 0.1% chance that anyone almost anywhere can be affected by some freak natural disaster even when not living right next to said Volcano/fault line/ocean/Aliens.\n\nThe big risk is usually water run off if the snow melts and if glaciers displace, generally speaking town planning takes this into account with certain levels of danger/safety and evacuation points, and not allowing construction in the \"red zones\" etc, as long as you are not on a bridge chances are worst case scenario you will be cut off for a few days from whatever is on the other side of said bridge or newly made river.\n\nLastly, ash, he's the funny thing, our Volcano didn't touch us with ash, a Volcano blew up some 400kms from us and the wind sent the ash cloud to our town and we had to tape our houses shut to keep the sulfer smell out in the night a few hours after the eruption, and by 2pm the next day it was still dark and a snow-fall of ash a solid inch deep covered everything.\n\nSo I guess we shouldn't build towns in all of South America, or near the wind? You see what I'm getting at right. ^_^",

"This is true with so many things in nature and it applies to financial markets.

Also, most likely a lot of these towns are old and living near a volcano had or has its benefits other than having rich soils, for example:\n\n* Some pre-columbian tribes used obsidian for their arrow and spear tips\n* Some towns began as temporary settlements or posts by conquistadors. They were known for going up the Popocatépetl to get sulphur, which they used to make gunpowder\n* The basaltic rock and tuff are both great construction materials. Basalt is heavy and dense, good for foundations and small houses. Tuff is soft and easier to manage than Basalt, it's also less dense and better heat insulator because of air particles.

"The Romans never had a word for a volcano, either before or after Pompeii. They had \"Vulcano\" before to mean \"burning island\" - the namesake of the island Vulcano, but this was a proper noun. And of course Vesuvius was not the first volcano to erupt in the Roman world. Mt Etna and Stromboli were both incredibly active (though not as violently) and well documented amongst ancient writers, yet still they had not coined a term for these geological features. Rather, they described them as island or mountains of flames, and the continuous sites of activity were often considered foundries, chimneys, or forges of the god Vulcan. Vesuvius remained a mountain in the eyes of the Romans despite its geological processes, for as far as they were concerned the processes were not a part of the mountain, but a unique act of the gods that could happen anywhere.\n\nThe etymology of the word really follows from Latin 'Vulcanus' (The God Vulcan) (2nd declension proper noun) to 'Vulcano' (Burning Island) (3rd declension proper noun derived from the former) -> Italian 'Vulcano' (Burning Mountain) (Common noun).\n\nSo, to fact check, you're right of the link to Vulcan, but they never named anything but the island Vulcano in reference to him.

With chaotic dynamic systems (like weather and financial markets), the smallest error in measurement (orders of magnitude smaller than we are capable of measuring) will result in drastically different outcomes. The [Double Pendulum](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_pendulum) is a classic example.

If you research Haitian soil, you find report after report that Haitian soil is not that good, with only about 20% as usable for farming, and they blame poor soil for Haiti's lack of food. Meanwhile, the same people report bountiful, rich soil in the neighboring country of the Dominican Republic, with up to 80% of the soil usable for farming. Keep in mind, these two countries share the same island, and have similar terrain.\n\nWhat a shame.

But the Roman's weren't ones to just adopt an idea, they made it their own.\n\nThey chose Aeneas as their founder, a demigod, and an (honorable) enemy of Greek Homeric Heroes, with the myth becoming that Rome was founded by Romulus and Remus, descendants of Aeneas, after Troy's destruction (told in the Aeneid, written by Virgil from around 30-20 BC, shortly before his death).\n\nSo, in a way, Rome not only adopted Greek tradition out of necessity (also because Greek culture was partly their culture), but also re-wrote themselves as the antithesis of Greek culture, surviving Troy to become the dominant power in the region, and conquerors of Greece.",

Always. \n\nThere is a guy that at least used to do this, or does this in the summer on Piccadilly Gardens/Market Street in Manchester, right outside Primark. It doesn't matter at what time in the day I walk past, he's always at the same stage in the process, usually poking around with some brushes. So to answer your question, yes, these dogs are made out of a mold.",
"Yup, exact same story here. Seen them in Manchester, but only ever in the 'finishing touches' stage ",
"Yeah I was in town at like 8 am once and he was already finished, since he'd have to set up quite early so that nobody really catches him. I assume that even if you're good at sand sculpting it'd still take you a couple of hours to finish, and it doesn't really make sense that you'd start a real sand scuplture at like 5-6 am.

To be honest though, I don't see why it's so unbelievable that these guys aren't using a mould - it's really isn't *that* incredible. If you practiced just making 'sand dogs', which is clearly all these guys make, you'd be able to make a damned nice 'sand dog' after a few weeks of practice. \n\nThe fact that there are a lot of 'sand dog' sculptors in different cities/countries doesn't scream 'mould' to me, it says that building a sand sculpture of a dog lying down in this particular manner is relatively simple, requires few tools or special preparation, and most importantly that this pattern attracts a reasonable degree of attention in the form of donations from passerby. It's like any formulaic street art in touristy areas - like caricaturists or those dudes who use spray paint to make weird space art/planets. \n\nEDIT: [Here is an article](http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3373121/So-MailOnline-uncovers-truth-sleeping-dogs-street-art-fad-s-not-mould-sight.html) from the daily mail supporting the theory that these guys make them from scratch.

She said the SNUZA went off seconds before the progressive alarm went off on the expensive machine. The SNUZA was on my son until he turned 1 year old. It gave piece of mind as it fails in the alarm position. We never turned it off when we changed his diapers we just placed it on his stomach or on our shirt during bath. It is essential to new parents. The HERO actually vibrates and wakes the baby if they go into an episode. Worth the investment as there is no price on knowing baby is safe and sound.",

"What an amazing opportunity to be able to fist bump the president!",

When the nurse complemented me on a job well done after the first time I bathed him, I told her it was just like washing my dog. I don't think she thought that was funny. Most of the nurses had a good sense of humor, though. Bonus for always being in good spirits and staying calm was that they didn't make us spend the night at the hospital with him before discharging him.",

They have also learned our tricks on how to tell them apart (they are identical) and now intentionally act like each other, thus fucking up the ability to use behavioral cues to pinpoint which little shithead did what. ",
"To reassure all the parents of a premie. I Was born two months premature myself, severe asthma for years. My best friend growing up was three months early. At certain point, genetics and good upbringing overtake the rough start. As a kid in high school I ended up running my first ever mile in 4 minutes and change and going on past there to be a track and cross country star. My best buddy was very competitive in soccer and also ended being a fabulous singer. \n \nIt's also pretty well documented that many premie kids struggle in grade school (Not every kid will struggle) but catch up usually by the time high schools rolls around. The way this was explained to me is that in human development we're not meant to deal with sights or sounds until 9 months. Coming out a month or two (or more) early and the brain isn't quite fully wired up and ready to go yet. But the brains pretty darn good at figuring things out, so when it gets these sudden unexpected stimuli, it starts to make new pathways. It usually manifests as some sort of attention issues that aren't treatable like everybody else. You can read more on it with a quick google search on premie brain development. \n \nIt's pretty easy to find ways to work around it but it took my parents some time to figure out! Ended up being just fine and getting an engineering degree. \n \nAnyways, I'm gonna stop here because I'm kinda drifting from the original idea. Point is, you're kids gonna alright. Maybe even more than alright! There's definitely some struggles involved and I sure spent some serious time in the hospital, but today's doctor's really do have this down. Good luck!",
"This is definitely not the original, the source being a doctor in Colombia who specializes in premature and low weight births. So this fist either belongs to the baby's doctor or their dad. They also wiggle and flail their limbs, they even have grip strength (my premature niece yanked her own feeding tube out once and was very pissed that it had to go back in), and you need to have contact with them so they can thrive. There's a pretty good chance this little dude had his hand sticking out and the doctor or dad wanted a quick photo before carefully moving him back where he needs to be or having a nurse do it. Either way, there's no ethical issue here. Babies are born premature for a multitude of reasons, many of which are out of anyone's control.",
"[u wot m8](http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/facebook/001/231/841/fb4.jpg)",
"yeah, this picture has some strangeness. I mean I immediately thought that must be a baby's fist, but then I noticed that his chest looks like an adult's so I got really confused for a minute til I realized that was a normal sized diaper in the photo",
"Daddy finger daddy finger where are you? \n\nHiding from you right now, son!",
"Baby: i'm struggling for my life here, you jackass! GTFO of nursery!",
"Why do you care?",
"My ex-24-weeker is now 33 weeks (about 2 months since birth)! She's still in the NICU at the moment but she's growing every day and we're pretty sure we'll be able to bring her home sometime next month. Best of luck to you and feel free to PM me if you ever want to swap NICU tales :) ",
"Can confirm. Mine was in the box for months, had a tumor removed at 1 year, and is now a 15 year old dickhead.",
"The parents made the kid, and by doing so they allowed any potential harm to happen to it. Unfortunately for the kid, that harm starts immediately. You don’t think this has anything to do with ethics?",
"My daughter wants a Blippi bday cake this year for her bday. ",
"Ca nt wait for the hospital we were going to use it when we were going to use it when we were going to use it when we were going to sleep unlike the monitors that go under the lamps.",
"It really is the worse. Feeling so helpless as you watch your children through a dome while you constantly watch numbers and lines on in their monitors while hearing the ding every time the o2 drops below 89. My twins were born 3 months early and we spent 4 months in the NICU, nearly 200 miles from home. Almost 2 years have passed and we've been lucky enough to not have to go back. Now I just hope they'll catch up developmentally without any issues. I look forward to the the wheels on the bus.",
"Always squeeze karma when you can.",
"I was that baby in the box, 36 years ago. August 1981, born at 26 weeks, 2lb 3oz (1040g). 6 months in the box before I was allowed home.\nOnly minor physical foot/leg muscle issues. Mentally, fuck yeah, I’m sharper than most people. BSc, MA, in a niche field.\nUs weaklings will survive and thrive. \n“Life finds a way.”\nYou’ll be fine, OP. And so will your little one. 🙂👍🏻 \n(I would link a pic of me back then, but I can’t seem to create an account with imgur...)",
"I managed to survive the toddler years, and now we are in the mid teens. Things seem to be going smoothly so I am keeping fingers crossed until we finish off grad school or win the lottery.",
"No problem, little man.",
"Ahh the NICU. My daughter was born at 27 weeks 1+lbs. She spent three months in the NICU and was released on her due date right around 4lbs. Brady’s were a common thing, pulse ox dropping was also common. She was intubated twice for a total of around 3-4 weeks. And on an NG tube for feeding for almost the whole time. Infections. Brain Hemorrhaging. Retinopathy of prematurity. The full preemie menu of complications. \n\nThose three months felt surreal. She’s now 2 going on 3 and is a perfect normal toddler. The UCLA team of clinicians are amazing and really talented. California state aid programs gave us access to free physical, speech and occupational therapy because of her preexisting condition (not our income). We took advantage of all of it and I think that helped get her on track to meet her “corrected age” milestones. Plus God. It’s truly a miracle. Looking at her medical record and what she endured from birth compared to the gorgeous little girl she is now. Science can only explain so much. She defied all odds. \n\nPreemies are amazing and inspiring tiny people. \n\nI just wish there was more housing and other assistance for parents who have babies in the NICU for extended periods of time. We’re lucky enough live in a major city with access to level 1 trauma and icu’s. We met a lot of parents who were sleeping in their cars because the hospitals overnight subsidized facilities were overcrowded and the commute home was over 2 hours in SoCal traffic. \n\nNow it’s all about Blippi, baby shark and daddy finger. ",
"People think that I'm crazy when I tell them to watch out for that. Then the blood starts running from their nose!",
"The title of that song does not sound appropriate for kids at all.",
"What are you doing talking about how smooth things are? You just jinxed yourself. Nice work!",
"Congrats on the baby",
"That baby will be legen, wait for it to sleep... ^dary. Lengendary",
"If you look at a line graph from far enough away they all flatten out.",
"My little girl just turned a month old (literally her original birth date today) after spending her first week in the NICU. I look at this picture and whimsical remember the good times when I could sleep and let the nurses come in and care for the baby in the middle of the night. ",
"You'll be out of there in no time! Stay strong, you've got this! \n\nDown the line when you look back at 3am with a crying baby in your hands you'll think back to how relaxing it was to have all of those wonderful NICU nurses helping out 24/7. ",
"Incubators aren't necessarily for immature immune systems, which is what I assume you're having an issue with. Could be for heat, moisture, or the NICU doesn't have the equipment available to move the baby out of the incubator. Skin to skin contact benefits far outweigh the dangers of a possible sickness. ",
"I've banned YouTube from my kids because I can hear their brain cells vaporizing and condensing out of their heads.",
"Great analogy!!!",
"or a Death Stranding ad",
"Our youngest turned 10 a few months ago, and she was 6 weeks early, as well. The worst part of her being in the hospital was leaving when she was ready. Not because I didn't want to take her home with us, but the other parents that we had become friends with over the three weeks she was in the NICU. There were couples there that knew they weren't ever going to be taking their child home. It broke me for a while. ",
"I'm sitting in the the NICU right now next to my boy in his incubator. Much love to you guys and congrats! ",
"and then lil johny sonofabitch falls climbing to get at it. no, you establish early on, that when no is ignored, the hammer comes out and removes the object of contention with extreme malice.",
"Ah, I see. You're against birth in general because of the inevitable pain and suffering everyone experiences, and you're commenting to either bring attention to your beliefs or just to whine about people having babies. I will not have children, I don't believe it's necessary or wise for a lot of people to have children, but I also don't shame those who are possibly dealing with a sick and/or premature baby because I'm not a garbage human being.",
"YEEEEES.\n\nWhat started with me playing Super Simple Songs playlists for him quickly devolved into a rabbit hole of garbage kids videos that I have no desire to go back to (we don't watch much tv/movies in our house anyway - just weekends if it's earned.) Ryan's Toy Reviews are what drove me off the deep end and made me cut the YT out for my kiddo. ",
"Unless the parents set out to make the kid's life bad, this is just something that happened and I see no ethical issue whatsoever. ",
"My boy was born 9 weeks early, spent 2 months in NICU. We did everything right, we were both healthy and ate right pre conception and during pregnancy. My wife got pre-eclampsia and they both almost died. Fast forward 15 years and my son is a normal, smart ass teenager. Congratulations and good luck. The hospital bit is but a minor set back. Bub will be out and kicking your ass in no time. I don't have a cool fist bump pic but my boy got pulled out (emergency C section) bum first.",
"Blippi!\n\nI put an end to the YT for my kiddo, but we always liked Blippi. He was one of the few goods ones... IMO. Totally annoying, but at least he's engaging and his videos have educational substance to them!",
"I love Blippi! It’s probably the only content on YT Kids my toddler and I can watch together. I have both Blippi albums Vol 1 and 2 and know them better than MJ’s Thriller. ",
"gross",
"I guess I'm just a glass half poison kinda guy",
"Well Im 8 months premature and im turning 24 next month... the docs were sure I was gonna die. But here i am.",
"Good luck, mine is 4 months now, spent 6 weeks in the NICU. Doordash or any food delivery service is your friend.",
"Since life without harm is impossible, there's no other way to view this as parents intentionally harming their kids. I mean, the kid is guaranteed to fall off of a bike at some point. The gamble parents take is if that's the extend of the hard, which is unlikely. Some kids have a terminal illness. You can't tell me parents won't take that risk into account when planning to have a kid.",
"I bet you're also not discussing gun laws after a mass shooting then. From your comment I think you view having kids from the perspective of the parents. You probably feel bad for the parent when someone like me calls the out for enabling this to happen. Have you for once thought about this from the perspective of the kids? Is it really so much better off lying there in the incubator instead of not being here at all? Me? I feel sorry for the kid, while you people all concern yourselves with the parents. That's a mayor bias.",
"Thanks for not aborting me ",
"/r/misleadingthumbnails",
"Have you tried that thing called parenting?",
"So your idea of parenting is deny him fun and cause an argument? I may be slightly annoyed by it but he is not harming anyone..",
"I thought it was a broken finger. :O",
"Who did you fuck for him to be your brother?",
"So you've taken steps to ensure that you will never be a parent?",
"Ended a 10 year (and otherwise perfectly fine) relationship because of it. So, yeah you could say that. I really tried to convince myself having kids wasn’t about me instead of the kid, but couldn’t. \n\nI guess once you realize what’s *really* happening, that you’re not only making a cute baby but also an elderly person with a failing body or potentially a teen dying of leukemia, and all just to give in to social and biological pressure, you just can’t ignore the ethical problems anymore. At least I couldn’t.",
"Glad to hear it.",
"Ah yes, because this is exactly comparable to a psychotic white dude with a couple of guns shooting at a crowd of people because his feelings got hurt.\n\n\nConsidering my niece is an 8 year old who was born at 32 weeks, I do actually think about what the kids go through all the time, because that's what I had to do for 12 days while she was in a neonatal unit gaining 10 oz. But thanks for the assumptions. I'm gonna go.",
"> Ah yes, because this is exactly comparable to a psychotic white dude with a couple of guns shooting at a crowd of people because his feelings got hurt.\n\nYou *know* my comparison was about the timing, not the subject.\n\n> Considering my niece is an 8 year old who was born at 32 weeks, I do actually think about what the kids go through all the time, because that's what I had to do for 12 days while she was in a neonatal unit gaining 10 oz. But thanks for the assumptions. I'm gonna go.\n\nSo were your conclusions a: I wouldn't allow a small defenseless child to ever be in that situation, or b: let's gamble with someone else's life?",
"I just added one to my Amazon list because of you. I'm currently 31 weeks but have gone into preterm labor twice since 28 weeks and I will most likely have a NICU baby. I feel like it's going to be 100x harder and more worrisome bringing home a preemie than a full term baby so the extra peace of mind sounds amazing",
"Hang in there! Get some rest and just know the doctor and nurses know what they are doing! That first night get some rest and let the nurses watch baby you need the rest and they are better equipt to handle any issues that may arise. Good luck ",
"I'm all for fun! I just dont think you should call your own son a \"Dick head\" and \"wish you could put him back\" is all.",
"Ah you don't understand sarcasm without a /s ",
"This is my brother’s and his son’s. Unlucky, this little one, my nephew passed away days after taking this photo. Sad. "

"It's legal in The Netherlands as well (well, on the beach it is) and I remember vividly that pretty much every other woman on the beach was topless in the 90's and early 2000's. However that changed somehow during the last 10/15 years and it's making me sad. :(",
"So titty bars are all rape houses?\n\n\n",
"Staring ≠ rape\n\n...or does it now? I've lost track.\n\nPoint is, legal or not, most women aren't comfortable going topless because they would get gawked at constantly, and probably worse.",

"3 things:\n\n1) That's from 2010. \n\n2) It was a sample of areas with the highest infection rates in the US. \n> More than 8,000 [men] were tested by CDC workers in the 21 American cities **with the highest infection rates**. \n\nTherefore, actual rates would be lower than in those areas.\n\n3) Canada =/= USA.\n\nDon't spread lies.\n\nEdit: 4th thing, from the actual [CDC report](https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm5937a2.htm?s_cid=mm5937a2_w):\n> Finally, these findings are limited to men who frequented MSM-identified venues (most of which were bars [45%] and dance clubs [22%]) during the survey period in 21 MSAs with high AIDS prevalence; **the results are not representative of all MSM. A lower HIV prevalence (11.8%) has been reported among MSM in the general U.S. population (8).**",
"In the vast majority of places, yes. \nIt's a cycle. We don't see exposed boobs outside of pornography very often, so they're taboo. The taboo makes them illegal. Being illegal means we don't see exposed boobs outside of pornography very often, so they're taboo.",

"Granted.\n\nBut [this site](https://www.statcan.gc.ca/eng/dai/smr08/2015/smr08_203_2015#a3) says that maybe 3.0% of Canadians identify as gay or bi, as of 2015.\n\nOntario's population was 12.2 million in 2006. Sooo...let's ballpark and say that we had 380,000 gays in Ontario.\n\nNow, [this study](http://www.health.gov.on.ca/en/public/programs/hivaids/charact_epidemic.aspx) says that there were 22,707 **reported** cases of HIV in Ontario, in the gay/bisexual community.\n\nWhich means in Ontario you're looking at 6% who **know** they've got HIV/AIDS. From the first study I mentioned, about half of all cases are undiagnosed.\n\nSo it's pretty fair to estimate there may be as many as 12% of those free-swinging dicks, as being addled with HIV/AIDS.\n\nDefinitely not 20%, but 12% is still pretty goddamned scary.\n\n",

"I don't know if it's technically legal but I saw quite a few bare chests at South Beach, Miami Beach in the early nineties.",
"True, I will always stare at a titty. Even if it's a forbidden titty or even a fucked up looking titty. You just never see them out in the wild often, so you kind of want to see how they mingle in the wild. It's not entirely my fault, I'm sure women will look too, I mean who doesn't love boobs... Raise your hand.",
"Personally, I hate this argument (not the cold part, obviously). It's self defeatist attitude because mildly dressed as sexism. People are going to stare, no matter what and that's not a crime, nor is it even a bad thing. A guy wandering around top less at a beach is common place and they get stared at to some degree. Girls going topless are going to get stared at just as well, to a different degree. Difference is mainly what's common place. You can't desensitized society that breasts are not sexualized if women stop making them out to be sexual objects by insisting on hiding them all the time. It's a catch 22.\n\nYou want people to ignore when your boobs hang out, just let them hang out. Get over the fact that people will stare, because until it's common place, people will continue. People stare when someone heavy is running, or when people act stupid. It's when it becomes common place they people stop staring as much. Don't let someone looking stop you from doing something.\n\nJust my thought. I'm sure people will bring some kind of hate. ",

"From Ontario here: It is my understanding that female toplessness is only allowed above a certain temperature (when it's really hot). Some parts of the province are ridiculously humid in summer which can easily cause heat stroke and that the woman who started this complained that she should be able to cool off in the same manner as any man.\n\nSource: I was college student at the time that this all went down.",
"Same in Austin TX!",
"Did you say something?",
"Not in all of Canada. It is still illegal in some provinces, although someone with the time, money, and thick skin to go to court could almost certainly change that. \n\n\nSource: Live in Alberta rn, would go topless way more often in summer if there was no possibility of police harassment. ",

"Whoa whoa whoa, it’s not “no dude in the world” it’s “nobody in the world”. Fuck outta here with sexism ",
"In Canada the criminal code functions on a federal level and not provincial. If you aren’t committing a crime in one province you aren’t committing a crime in any other. ",

"> I usually see a few out and about at the pride parades.\n\n\nnice ones? or tiny mosquitoe bite ones ? or big meaty saggy one on large women? ",
"Yup, usually places where it's common no-one cares that much. It's like you don't care about your partner being nude if they'd be it all the time (maybe at home). But in bed (or similar context) that'd be a totally different thing.",

I would too and I'm not gonna apologize for it. It's really bad when you act on your impulses in a sexually physical way. But a quick glance should be not demonized to the degree that it is. \n\nI raise you a glass of the best imaginary beer. Cheers. ",

"And men as well.",
"Not only legal, it's encouraged.",
"It’s one of the only ways to keep the body from being over sexualized. When you see nudity in daily life and people just being themselves it leaves you with a healthy and balanced view and not just a sexualized view of life.

"Thin waists and wide hips are a huge turn on. A literal silhouette of the female body is sexually attractive. That's not to detract from the movement, and I think it's great to try and normalize toplessness in a non-sexual way in the same way I believe women should be able to breastfeed in public without shame. Baby's got to eat, and that is the literal purpose of the boobs. There's nothing shameful about the human body, and I believe the faster we move away from it as a taboo the healthier of a culture we can be. \n \nNudity ≠ Sexuality. No reason to conflate the two, yet we do all the time because of taboo.",
"I definitely think calling our culture repressive is a bit excessive in this case. I mean it's legal, women have all the rights men do, and we nearly had a women president. Granted, there are things that can be improved, but I wouldn't come close to calling it repressive. Also, people get shit no matter what they do by the vocal minority. If you are a liberal you are a snowflake/libtard. If you are a conservative you are a racist/homophobe. And so many more examples. But there true truth is that most people don't give a shit as they are too busy with their own lives to care that much",
"However, it is illegal for both men and women to *drive* topless, due to a case where a bad accident happened as a result of two topless women driving a jeep on the highway and distracting others.\n\nOr maybe the second part is a joke or something, but the first part is true for sure. ",

"It's not so much of a get over it, as it's understanding of why it happens. As I said, it's a catch 22. Women want the freedom to go top less without being 'harassed', but until it happens common place so people just glance over it, that's not going to stop. Woman also need to realize that staring is not a crime, no one can stop anyone from looking.\n\nIf a fat person wants to get better, they have start exercising and that generally means going where people can stare at you. If woman want to go top less, that means going places where people are going to stare. Just how it goes.\n\nIt's not a get over it, just have an understanding of the situation. ",

I can see why they'd be angry about not being able to use a freedom they've been legally granted because they fear being further harassed.\n\nLet them complain, it's a real issue for them and it's good for them to vent.\n\n",
"TIL: stating facts is nonsensical",
"That's a beta mind set if I've ever seen one. Men are harassed just as much as women, but it's only sexist if a man does it.\n\nHarrassment is wrong. But looking is not Harrassment. There is nothing in the world that says someone cannot look at something. Asking to buy someone a drink, is not harassment. A man existing is not harassment. You belittle the issues when you make everything harassment, and that perpetuates the problem. When everything is harassment, nothing is. ",

"I mean. If it's actual harassment then that's a problem. But so many women are getting offended and claiming Harrassment at the stupid things. Verbally assaulting someone is harassment, touching inappropriately is, but just looking? Nope. ",

"This is so beautiful ",
"*fall aboard",
"It is, but some knucklehead reversed the image.",
"The image has been reversed for some reason. [Here is what it should look like](https://i.imgur.com/A70hhiB.jpg) This is the Conway Scenic Railroad in Crawford Notch, New Hampshire crossing the Willey Brook Bridge. The mountain behind it is Mount Willard. When this route was opened in the 1870s (without the use of dynamite), it was considered an engineering marvel. [Here is what it looked like in the 1880s](https://i.imgur.com/BwGetpi.jpg). At one time there was a section house right about where that pine tree stands. It was a place where railarod workers could rest and get something to eat. After her husband was killed in a rail accident in 1913, the railroad let Hattie Evans and her four small children live there for as long as they wanted. [Here is a photo of the house](https://i.imgur.com/tLcXqUC.jpg). In the morning, she would line up the children by the tracks spaced out at intervals so the conductor could scoop them up to take them to school without stopping the train on the steep grade.",

"It's not a loop. It does an out and back from Conway to Crawford Notch. That route is called the \"Notch Train\". Depending on the type of ticket you purchase, you could end up in [coach](https://i.imgur.com/CqW1Bz0.jpg), [first-class](https://i.imgur.com/qv4eqRU.jpg), or in [the dome](https://i.imgur.com/PiQho3O.jpg). There is also a [dining car](https://i.imgur.com/oZkNg4c.jpg).",

As the wedding commercialisation boom happened, everyone was looking to profit, so we be looking at much higher prices on everything. \n\nThere are many other variables that change the cost of a wedding dress in the modern era\n\n the $40 dress of yesteryear could well be a $8,000 dress of today \n\nAmazing how we let ourselves pay such a high price for things these days",

I’m not saying I plan to spend that much on a dress when I get married, but oftentimes you really are paying for the craftsmanship— and they don’t typically need to be altered because it’s basically made to order to your measurements.",

"*Everything* wedding-related is insanely expensive.\n\nI used to work for a company that made costume jewelry 10 years ago and they were very heavily into the bridal market. Our cheapest items were the dangle earrings we made by hand. A pair of plated headpins, a pair of plated posts or clips with a single rhinestone set in them, a couple of colored glass pearls, and a couple of seed beads. Those materials cost, at most, $1.50. Now labor does have to factor into it, but it took seriously a minute to make a pair like that, and I was making a ridiculously low amount of money there.\n\nThey insisted on *wholesaling* those earrings for $15.50. Retail goes for at minimum twice that, up to 4-5x depending on certain factors like time of year etc. Those cheap ass earrings can theoretically set you back nearly $80. And this was a decade ago, I'm sure it's gone up a bit too.\n\nIt's all just fucking crazy, and why I would never want a wedding. That whole industry is such a scam.

This was 11 years ago now and I found out only within the last couple that it cost $10,000. They spent the money on that because the food cost almost nothing because the bride’s father and Uncle co-owned the butcher that catered it. 5 courses on insanely good food.

The cheaper product that wares out faster and can't be repaired will result in buying more regularly. There are no longer good quality affordable items for a lot of stuff. \n\nWedding dresses don't really fall into this as they're only used once (or once in decades). However it's still a massive pain as anyone who wants a good tailored one is forced to go high end, which is then exaggerated further by the massive inflation of wedding expenses in general thanks to marketing.",

"The ventilation hole saved you from a nearly fatal case of athletes foot? ",
"I’ve worked at UPS for the last year and a half. I love the job and the pace and recently I moved within the company. When I first started here I was wearing a different type of boots but they were KEEN brand. On my first week there I had a ~80 pound wooden box fall off a conveyor and land on my toe/top of my foot and only felt the actual weight. No pain or anything. After that I decided to never wear tennis shoes inside. \n\n\nI recently moved to what is known as “shift” in my company. I move giant containers that weigh about 3000+ pounds and don’t really like to stop. [This](https://i.imgur.com/IExlQmz.jpg) is a picture of what I do (not actually me). We move these containers and have to lock them next to some conveyors so they can be unloaded. [These] (https://i.imgur.com/gULEz5z.jpg) are what the locks and conveyors look like. While I was doing this, I stepped on a roller on the floor, lost my balance and my boot got sandwiched between a ~3000 pound container and a lock that was bolted to the floor. For a second I thought I was screwed and I would have to go to the hospital but when I pushed the container away I just had a bruise and I could actually walk (with a bit of a limp but oh well). My boot took most of the damage and did it’s job perfectly. While it did get some tears in it, I can still absolutely use it for a few more months. [This](https://imgur.com/a/tN6Br/) is the damage it did to my boot and to my foot. Thanks to KEEN I didn’t have to go to the hospital to get a cast and instead have to go boot shopping in the next few months. Sorry if this isn’t the right place but I don’t know where else to share))",
"Nice hiking boots have never let me down, but maybe you should think about getting some steel-toed boots. I'm not a big fan of them, but that might serve you well if that ever happens again.",
"That's why they require safety boots. Duh.",
"That’s actually what I have and likely why my foot isn’t worse",
"we're upvoting pictures of shoes with no context today i see...",
