If there is a comment about lentils, you win bingo!

The entire triangle area is pretty moderate or left leaning. :) Raleigh is great and Durham has great food.

You guys really need some new material.

Thanks for the info, and for explaining the difference between the sensitive/dairy-free kinds and the regular formulas. Much appreciated. :)

That's one thing that worries me about breastmilk swaps, that combined with the "breast is best!" mentality, women might kill themselves to try to obtain breastmilk when the source isn't known to be safe or regulated. Right now in the U.S., breastmilk swaps are unregulated so you have pretty much no idea who the…

Well. While I wanted to say something goofy about the breast milk swap, honestly my thought is good for Alicia.

Dells is the best cheesy tourist trap ever. Hands down.

I don't think she anticipated such hypervigilance. In future, even the lightest jokes will be first run past a committee of Concerned Commenters.

"Is this going to cause a shitstorm and impact my livelihood?"

If my late father was any indicator, throwing around some N-bombs and romanticizing black servitude might make her more endearing to some of her audience.

Came down to say the same thing. I was hoping the words were twisted in some way (because I wanted to live in ignorance of PD's racism, ok?), but alas, that is not possible. I can't watch her show and think of her as a giggly grandma anymore. Nasty bigot racist for now and forever on.

... think a lot of times strong men do want an equal, but then they get that equal and they’re like, I can’t handle the equalness...

At least it wasn't a post-it?
