My husband loved this ad so, so much. He gleefully shared it on his FB feed. I must actively suppress this knowledge to stay in love with him.

My four-year-old has just started obsessing over death (her sister did, too, at about the same age). She said "it breaks my heart!" last night when she realized her balloon animal was deflating- and it led to a full sob session about how much she'll miss her big sister when she dies. I guess I didn't cry because I've…

Oldest daughter saw daddy in his undies and said "daddy has a poopy diaper." Yes, it is important!

I just love Brad Pitt's performance in this role. Hard to imagine anyone else nailing that "manic/vulnerable/scary" combo.

My rates are quite reasonable, though I draw the line at politicians. :)

I would just lie and say it was a "water birth." Technically true.

They are in the silent movies where they've always been, asshole.

I feel as though it's related to Death Panels.

You know the activists that project images onto buildings at night? I want SO much to know how to project words into the façade of the Hobby Lobby near me. Maybe something simple, like "FUCK YOU", but something funny would be even better, like a giant ominous uterus with a "KEEP OUT" slash through it.

Well, that's what uppity wimminfolk get for wanting to work outside the home, you know.

But Supply Side Jesus is a Job Creator!

Don't discount the time you give your child, even if it's not on the playground. My best memories with my girls (so far) are conversations we have at night, between bedtime stories and "eyes closed". I know they'll remember them, too (if not the conversations, at least the closeness and snuggles).

Or maybe 65 is old enough to have paid over forty-something years of FICA tax (and Social Security retirement's not until 72), but I'm sure you know best.

Pro-tip: it is always an unpopular position to suggest there's a "best" time in someone's life to do anything. Because

I'd love to take this course, but I keep getting an error message when I try to register. I'll keep trying, but if you know, could you tell me how much it costs?

So true. Ugh.

"Sidequel"? That's a new one to me! But I get it. I'm interested enough to see it, for sure, but I don't think I can watch "Mad Max" again. My tolerance for depressing nihilism, however packed with badassery, is not what it used to be. Plus, the last time I saw it on TV it had been dubbed with American accents, which…

Holy shit, he and Sigourney Weaver and that scene in YOLD... *getting the vapors*

Mel was first (1985), Mark second (1986).
