Remember, there are 23 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds more in each day. Now go fish those birth control pills out of the trash.

I hear what you are saying, but I am also old enough to remember when "motherhood is a job" was a mind-blowingly radical thing to say. Post-WWII American society so sanitized and romanticized mothers that "being a mom" translated to "sitting around gossiping with the gals, drinking coffee — or something stronger — and…

Oh god, can we just not? Please? Because this only ever ends one way. The people with kids will turn into instant sanctimommies, all like "If you aren't a parent you will never understannnnddddddd!!!!!" and the people without kids will be all like "Why can't I apply for maternity leave when I get a new kitten, cats…

Well obviously the time of year babies are born affects them. Haven't of y'all read the horoscope in your local paper?

We were in the same boat. I remember asking the geneticist, 'can you tell how severe it would be?' and she was like, 'nope.' I asked about the kids mainstreamed into 'regular' classes at school and she was very frank: 'they're the exceptions.' Luckily, we ended up not having to make any choices (kid was fine), but…

"I have been told by numerous guys that by the time I'm 30, that's it, I no longer have any dating value, and if I want to get married, I will need to just "take what I can get."

I now understand what religious people are talking about when they call something an "abomination."

I have no kids nor any desire to have them but finding work that allows me to be at home, ever, is still a priority for me. It's a struggle to find something that's actually in my field, that allows me time for some semblance of a life, and that pays well enough to live on. Right now I've got one and two, and I'm…

Believe it or not, if you venture out of Williamsburg, Greenpoint, and Park Slope, there's a whole borough full of ethnic enclaves and normal people just living their lives. South Brooklyn (where I live), Brownsville/East New York, Flatbush, Midwood, Flatlands/Marine Park... not an artisan cupcake shop or locavore…

My friend just looked over at this and exclaimed 'white baby problems.'

If you use lemon juice to get rid of a stain on your furniture, you can then rub the area with fish to get rid of the lemon smell.

Sounds about right - let me pretend I care about what is best for women and children, but then go ahead do exactly the opposite.

I have many thoughts about this, but it comes back to one: What the fuck is so expensive?

IMO, the profit motive is fine for batteries, restaurants, hats, and dish detergent. It is NOT good for health care, prisons, or education.

Why is no one talking about the role of government tuition grants and easy loans as they relate to skyrocketing tuition? Why do you think colleges are so brazen in raising tuition? Because there's so much easy money out there to pay for it. Tuitions go up, so the government gives out more financial aid, so tuition…

Republicans (and some Democrats, I am sure) want us in six-figure, everlasting debt so we have no choice but to work for their CEO friends for whatever low wages they'll offer us. And we won't put up a fight because we need said low-paying job so we can make our student loan payments.

The cost of tuition increases because of availability of student debt which continues because of the increasing cost of tuition, which continues due to the availability of student debt which gets re-authorized to help students pay for the rising cost of tuition, which goes up because of the availability of students…

Are you sure it's not Kristen Dunst's used car?

Can we have a quick convo about how everyone has swept the repeal of section 5 of the VRA under the rug? Like NC is putting back poll taxes as we speak and no one cares. THEY ARE TAKING MY RIGHTS AWAY. Ugh. Whatever I'm old enough and black enough to know that unless it directly affects white people no one cares.…

This is all I can come up with
