I got lucky and my toddler was potty trained by his second birthday, but I had planned on three years between them for that very reason. And also because I wanted my older son to be a little more independent and capable of being on his own for a bit, since babies are such attention whores.

Yeah, real-talk time: I'm 35 weeks pregnant with my second and I feel a lot of affection for him already, but I kind of just don't want him to ever come out...ever. Or rather, maybe he could come out and then we could just slingshot ahead to age two, when the sleep schedule and teething bullshit are all figured out.

I don't know...she doesn't really connect with Aurora until she's a teenager. I was actually quite pleased with the fact that it was more of a mentoring relationship between an older and younger woman, rather than a woman and a baby, and that Maleficent changes when she realizes that her curse is merely perpetuating

Dude needs to check his Valyrian privilege.

"Are they suggesting teenage girls marry 40 year old successful businessmen or something?"

Jesus FUCKING CHRIST. Every day I become more and more convinced that people on the right are physically incapable of grasping nuance and context. Because OMG! Did you know that the rate of drownings rises during the summer—and so does the rate of girls wearing shorts?! Clearly, the ONLY LOGICAL CONCLUSION IS THAT

Over this:

Oh fuck off with your oversimplifications.

Has no prior record and has led an otherwise productive life.

You're adorable. Keep up the good work, champ!

Again...which can be said of ANYONE who wants something they can't have and lashes out violently to get it. It's called entitlement, and it's actually not a mental illness.

Wuh-oh, here come the condescending pet names. Why don't you start turning down the gas lights while you're at it?

So what you're saying is you've completely missed the point...

Reading the edits made me mad at first, and then it was just hilarious when every edit became "because MISANDRY!!" Like, no attempt to contextually weave it in so people wouldn't notice. Nope—they just went full on "Hulk smash!"

You do realize that you could apply this exact same explanation to virtually EVERY act of violence against ANYONE, right? A person who doesn't get their way and lashes out violently= mental illness all around?

I'm so glad those good guys with guns are always there on the scene to take down the bad guys with guns. Oh—what's that? This guy was subdued with...pepper spray? And Elliot Rodger shot himself?...

All of it. All of it just...

Well that explains it. "Insufficient parenting" (translation: SHITTY MCSHITTER MOMS!) coupled with little girls' natural proclivities for nastiness and small-mindedness is responsible here. I mean, the crime wasn't committed by a white man with a gun, so it's not like we can blame mental illness...

I feel like trying to get one on would be like playing that Cat's Cradle game... I would definitely have the crotch on my hip and a bunch of strings wedged in my vag for sure.
