If you're having kids you gotta get tdap as part of prenatal care; I think they make you get it if you haven't had it in 5 years if you're the one carrying the child, 10 if you're the other parent.

No box and fake receipt because I cheaped out but they fit and are comfy. The shop is now empty but I don't know if that is because they got raided or are caught in the current set of China lockdowns. This is the store https://www.aliexpress.com/store/4990449

Hello thread, hasnt post in a long time.

I got these tiny metal plates to go with magnetic bars I have all over my room.



On Amazon you can only buy the big black ones you put on your phones. They are too big. These small ones I use shoegoo to glue it on small objects. You probably can use e6000 glue too.





Search "metal plate magnetic 20mm" on ali, you know the sales link get removed all the time.

Oh yeah if you want the strongest small magnet tab in your car, get this

I've had two of these bicycle phone mounts, but they've both gotten destroyed by vandalism, so this time, I got this type, that has a quick-release strap, so that I can take the mount as well as the phone with me when I leave the bike somewhere.

It's great! I bought one for my parents, and between our two households, we use it on all kinds of poo poo. But yes, mostly toothpaste and expensive medicated ointments. Perfect for when your kid says he's out of toothpaste and you know there's plenty left in the tube. Ali sells plastic ones, too, but those looked like they'd break in no time.

I had posted here before about these slipper-sandals:


(many more styles available at the link above)

I bought them in May 2020 and wore the hell out of them all spring and summer (and into fall) since, and they still looked good as new. I liked them so much, I bought a second pair six months later just to have a backup. Yesterday one of the four straps on the right sandal slipped out from between the two layers of sole holding it in place. I'd say two years is a pretty good lifespan for an Ali product in reasonably heavy rotation (and I'm just going to Shoe Goo this thing back into place). Highly recommended. I ordered a half-size up from my usual and they fit like a dream.

For toothpaste, this style works fine:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001770766905.html

We’ve got a couple similar to that, and a couple of stainless steel ones like this: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/10000060508618.html
and they work pretty well. Even allow for standing the tube on end of it’s not too tall. Mine are from Amazon, but same difference. You can also by just the windup key, which is still a lot better than squeezing or rolling up without.

The big thing I always look for is hinge detail and those look like a basic plastic hinge with just a screw.

I've bought a lot of aliexpress cycling glasses and the quality is super variable. The only constant is that the ones for £2-4 each are universally terrible and the ones that are £10-15 vary between janky and almost as good as the real thing. I bought two pairs of EVZero fakes at the same time from two different shops, one was missing an inlaid oakley logo on one side and the hinge barely functioned, the other pair is still going strong some 5 years later. Bought a pair of fake 100% glasses that could pass as real Came with all the proper packaging too: branded hardcase, holographic cardboard outer case, tons of accessories. It was pretty impressive.

I've bought both £2 and £15 Jawbreaker clones and the difference in quality between them is huge, the cheap ones are basically just a piece of plastic moulded roughly into the right shape. The costlier ones are multipart construction, overmoulded rubber grips and far better quality lenses. They also come with a bunch of replacements: Mirror, polarised, clear, low light etc.
