Excited to see NatGeo Kids in the image (though not mentioned in the text)—my kid's aunt just got her a year's subscription as a gift (what a great idea!) and she loves it. Middlesex U (UK) has a wonderful line of science toys— I just got her the Robot Duck. She gets to assemble her very own silly-walking robot!…

I had never heard of this movie (why? why??) and now I've looked it up and now I'm totally going to go watch it.

Cookies for all!

My kid's a Brownie and I'm just revving up to be a Co Leader. Girl Scouts rock!

"I'm a top minority employer."-So did he, like, win a contest or something?

An older cousin of mine did that to another cousin's baby one time—and the baby peed all over her face. While she was cooing and oohing and aahing over him.

So wait, all youguise talking of sales, etc., if everyone buys off clearance and sales racks WHO IS BUYING THE NEW CLOTHES FULL PRICE?

Lord, yes, that's what I thought of immediately too. Not just wages, they're also fucking people around over damages to be paid over worker deaths/disabilities.

PS: Awesome nick, btw. Are you a Gaiman fan? :-)

Sigh. I feel you. But then Gap's one of the companies that's fucking over factory workers in Bangladesh and elsewhere.

I'm glad you said that. I was just thinking the same thing. (There was a brouhaha a few years ago about a French museum 'borrowing' antiquities from a country in Asia, and the French were all Alors! But we the good peoples! and the 'natives' were all. Yeah, but you take stuff and don't give 'em back, so, no. Also,…

I know why he doesn't. Because those people NOTICE.

The poster who wept, in her subsequent comments, seemed less annoyed and more understanding of others' positions than you are. I guess, she's a generous person.

No, you said the OPs original comment was sad for you to read. And you continued to iterate the point that is her response to HER abortion was sad, gross, etc. etc. As if your feelings have any bearing on what she should feel. You think you're being reasonable; you're not.

No, what you're saying is that there is one prescribed way of responding to abortion. That other ways of responding aren't 'right'.

That is hilarious. Now I have a visual of Robin Williams in that bodysuit thing with tiny plastic balls stuffed in there. For some reason, all these balls are blue and green.

" I think I felt guiltier about not feeling guilty since that's, apparently, how I was supposed to feel."

Difference between rape and abortion:

"These are facts I can deal with."

I'm so sorry, though, that this is a decision that continues to have such an impact on you. I hope you feel better; what more can an internet stranger say? Hugs to you.
