There are laws preventing someone from jacking up the prices of necessary items during emergencies. But I think the law of supply and demand is the only thing stopping you from selling a baseball hat for $20,000.
I originally posted this on the other site back when I took the picture, and it resulted in a lot of confused comments, especially from Americans, eventually getting removed by overzealous mods. Either way, I promise you that this date does not exist, and has never existed.
If one was indistinguishable from the other: taste, scent, texture, temperature, etc. You can’t tell apart the real thing from your choice, but you know 100% what you are eating....
Hospital was having all kinds of problems today but the c section went smooth, the parade of family visiting is done, mom and baby are down for the count. Very happy to be scrunched up on this uncomfortable ass hospital chair
I feel this. My wife was mostly on bed rest toward the end of her second pregnancy. We also have a toddler. I was basically taking care of our toddler, our two dogs, and the upkeep/cleaning of our house all on my own. Plus working a full time, very stressful job that pays most of our bills. The stress was real. And I was exhausted.
Keep your head up. But just know that after a C-section your wife won’t be able to do any heavy lifting, driving, and other things for at least 6 weeks afterward. If you have family or friends that you are able to reach out to, it could be good to do so. I don’t necessarily mean having people hang around your house all day. No one wants that. But maybe people can drop off some hot meals for you? Deliver groceries to you? Simple things that can save you a lot of time.
At the end of the day, and as much as your wife needs the help, remember to take some time for yourself. I found myself getting unreasonably frustrated at times, and I internalized that a lot. We can’t be good fathers and husbands if we are drowning.
Keep reaching out here if you need to vent or need advice!
I got my first cease and desist letter. AMA
Is it illegal to charge insane prices for things?
Is there a law preventing me from for example selling a baseball hat for $20,000?
My local coffee shop has a no birds sign on the door. It is placed at eye height for walking birds. (lemmy.world)
Lets start a new Lemmy holiday tradition. What's a song you've been digging lately?
Not necessarily your favorite, but something you recently discovered or rediscovered.
