Absolutely. Friend of mine had an abortion when much younger. The older family member she went to (she was too afraid to go to her mom) helped her find a safe place to have her procedure, but they shamed and guilted the hell out of her. Later she told me she felt no regret, but felt hugely guilty because she didn't…

To you. Not to everyone. That's the point being made here.

Where's that gif from? It's awesome!

And then, then I discovered snow pea leaf. I am a serial greens abandoner.

Chard! After I discovered chard, I never went back to spinach!

I know, right? Hahaha, when the explanation just makes it worse.

Oh man, I used to love this (mostly, I now realize, because it had Robin Williams in it and MATILDA!), so I thought I would rewatch it with KidBeast. Holy potatoes, that was one effed up movie. I diverted KidBeast and turned it off about twenty minutes into it because it was all kinds of weird and it took me that long…

Yep. This is what I learned when I very briefly worked in a lifestyle glossy.

Where's them eggs?

Nope. This just proves you don't know what Affirmative Action means.

So then how do you claim your actions are not hurtful?

Why is it that racist people seem to think Affirmative Action is only about race?

You're a horrible person. You're like giving us all nightmare foreverz. FOREVERZ.

Umm. am I the only one whose eyebrows went up a notch at her stated goal of sexing a professor, what?

Oh, thank you so much for taking the time to respond. I'll have to make a chart for sure!!

I adore raisins. Okay, so here's a raisin story for you, my child's fellow raisin hater.

Dude. That's what I'm calling any grain I don't like from now on: Sperm skeletons.

Haha, you know I used to worry about when KidBeast would be older and would be able to figure tricks like that out. But now that we're there, it doesn't matter because KidBeast adores sushi and loves trying out new things.

That's kind of what I do with my kid—I began assigning KidBeast chores, but I kept forgetting to followup/make sure they're actually getting done. So now I just call on KidBeast to help out with whatever I need help with, mostly cooking, but sometimes with laundry, cleaning, etc.

Okay, advice. I grew up with chores. I assign chores to my kid. But if she forgets (and so do I), what should I be doing then? (I'm terrible at follow-up which is why I'm asking. What works?)
