Now I’m wondering if there’s a ton of wrestlers and hockey players walking around with CTE. (Yes, I know about Chris Benoit, but if concussions are worse than football there must be more than a handful...)

It makes sense, but I suspect this rule will mainly be used to force women politicians to bear the slime and vitriol of twitter’s basement dwellers.

I think I’d be more embarrassed by forgetting to put out the salt and pepper shakers than I would be by having a guest grab them and season whatever I’m serving. To me it’s just part of setting the table.

If you own a wine cellar, the answer to all tipping questions should be YES.

Yeah, this is definitely more “woman murders son and commits suicide.” Heck, add “possibly” in there if you want to allow for some horrible accident.

Except for, well, being male. The representation percentage there is seriously skewed.

Wait, has an author ever ACTUALLY gotten in legal trouble over similarities to a fanfic of their work? Marion Zimmer Bradley May have said it happened to her, but she was also a truly messed up pedophilic abuser, sooooo her word is a wee bit suspect.

It’s not as bad as I made that sound - we have family members a couple states away who visit a few times a year, so we basically get out for ‘round about every other Marvel movies, so there’s that!

I’ve got two kids and all my friends have kids, so I’m not exactly clueless here. What ages you can care for depend on your personality and what sort of disability you have. All the joints in my body went into full revolt for months (due to a crazy viral reaction) when my second kid was around one year old. It…

As someone who struggled mightily with postpartum mindfuck bullshit, I am actually VERY GLAD this movie was spoiled for me. (Wasn’t spoiled here, it was on a parenting group warning fellow moms to beware.) I can’t imagine how I would feel if I moved hell and highwater to get a babysitter (which I have never had) to…

I don’t really understand why more health insurance CEOs aren’t shot by grief stricken family members.

I don’t blame the jail much on this one (even though I’m a co-sleeping parent!) It’s completely awful, but Back To Sleep experts rule to medical roost right now, and just one suspicious SIDS death would probably be enough to get the whole program shut down.

Taking care of a newborn and taking care of a toddler are vastly different undertakings. I can imagine someone who couldn’t take care of a fresh baby but could handle a kid once they’re sleeping more at night, weaned, needing less frequent changing, etc.

Yeah, the books are pretty damn progressive. Abortion is 100% the woman’s choice, racists are bad, women are full characters with their own agendas (and face no shame from the writer for sleeping around just as much as Geralt), people can’t be judged by whether they’re a vampire or an elf or etc, economic oppression,…

If it’s over a couple dollars, I say “that looks like a birthday or Christmas present, let’s take a picture and put it on your list.” Hand child phone, they take a bunch of pictures, done.

You want to figure out how the fetus died? It was 20 weeks and not at a hospital. No fetus is surviving that, even if it was “alive” when it was delivered.

Obviously people get yelled at for completely naked pictures of boys - I believe the duchess’s point was that if she were a three year old boy without a shirt, no one would blink an eye.

I hate the Trumps as much as anyone, but maybe we could all just avoid sexualizing a toddler and ignore goofy family videos. Poor girl is in for a lifetime of body shame being a female in America, let the poor kid be a little no-shame kid for five minutes.

I know there’s not going to be LEGAL repurcussions for attempted murder with the police, but what about social repurcussions? It seems like the people reporting obviously innocent POCs never, ever get named in the news articles about them. Sometimes there’s even quotes by them but never their names. Some instances are…

Someone bring this service to Boston, our pizza is horrible and the delivery time wouldn’t be that unrealistic to boot.

And if you have to ask, yeah, I’d rather eat mildly reheated NY pizza than Boston pizza any day....
