Yup. You can induce lactation. I’m on a surrogate journey, so looked into it. I had a baby girl 5 years ago, she couldn’t latch at all so I pumped for months. I would like to breastfeed if I can.

I didn’t realize she had placenta accreta! One of my best friends had the same thing with her last pregnancy and the doctors ended up just doing an (early) C-section and hysterectomy at the same time. Luckily, everyone was fine, but that’s such a scary situation.

Have you tried peeing on it?

This. I mean, it’s basically a tech-ified version of the rhythm method, and we know how well that’s worked out for Catholics around the world.

I can’t believe they cited this as actual birth control. My app that I used four years ago warned that ovulation dates were an estimate and not to count on them absolutely. I was on a new bc and took my pill a few hours later and spotted. So I used my app’s calendar to use back up during the unsafe dates. Turned out…

Well duh, everyone knows (or should know) that tracking your fertility, even with an app, is an unreliable method of birth control. Back in the 1980s this was called the rhythm method. There was a joke, “What do you call people who use the rythym method?” “Parents.”

I love her and her sweater. I also love JANE Fonda.

I keep staring at the sweater and thinking, “How luxurious...”

Sharon Stone is a gift we don’t deserve. That cozy sweater, on the other hand, is a gift I do deserve.

I wonder what it would be like to be rich and famous but had to deprive yourself in order to be so thin? Not saying this model necessarily, but just in general. I know they have other worldly pleasures to enjoy but I think a good meal with friends is one of the most enjoyable things in life, and I’m not fat.

That’s also really bad photoshopping.

There are many healthy, naturally skinny models. No question, Victoria.

Bouts of unemployment or underemployment is only fair.

I have no interest or intention of rehabbing men. Like the spoiled children they’ve behaved as, they can sit down and think about what they’ve done for a while. Bouts of unemployment or underemployment is only fair. I can’t number the opportunities I’ve lost for speaking up or fighting back.

Um. Yeah.  We have to work at least twice as hard to get half as far (more so if we’re women of color). We have to “set the boundaries” at work or on a date. We have to be the ones to risk our jobs to report misconduct or harassment or failure to pay us equally — and sometimes we have to leave our jobs when the man…

Do you really need to ask if the obese looking man who wears baggy suits to hide his massive girth is really in “excellent health”? He tries to hide his obesity, but there’s a ton of pictures of him in his golf attire. That is not the shape a man of “excellent health” has, no matter the age. Then you throw in the fact…

Translation: “We didn’t think there were going to be any black kids in our school.”

I can’t count the number of times I’ve innocently shown up to a sex party and it turned out to be a business meeting. I feel Musk’s pain. :(

Have you ever listened to Musk give a speech or interview? Him thinking a sex party was just a business social and leaving before the boning makes far more sense to me then him seeing he white fur floor and going, “hold my beer, I need to grab a bunny suit out of the frunk.”

Well, my kids’ school has some explaining to do about last Easter!
