If they truly believed that a fetus was a human being entitled to rights, A) They wouldn't support rape and incest exceptions, and B) They would support punishing women who have abortions just like any other murderer.

As I was reading these and shaking my head in alternating horror and amusement, I realized that oddly enough, I had a pretty good story to add here. It was surprising to me, because I recall my wedding as being beautiful — I had a wonderful time and it is one of the best memories I have.

I was too young to drink, but the food was the product of a collective hundred+ years of cooking experience. My Aunts Mal, Marianne, Rose, Dee, and Nettie could cook. Their marinara, their meatballs, their macaroni dishes were straight from Italy to my Grandmother to them.

It's because he's doing homage and she's the real genuine deal. People want their flyover country tales filtered through NPR first. Actual small town folks are hopelessly uncool.

We've always used the proper terms with our kiddo (I'm a biologist, I'm not going to call it a wee-wee or a hoo-haa or whatever). She was then told by other kids she was saying "bad words." Her teacher started to tell her not to say those and she proudly said "My mommy says those are the right words and not to use…

If you're trapped by payday loans or considering attempting settlement because you can't afford to pay off your debt, consider bankruptcy. It's a relatively quick process that can eliminate most debts and in the long run your credit may be rebuilt faster than by continuing to struggle with paying debts you can't…

I love that you include Roseanne in this mix. People don't put her in the same category with other great TV moms, but SHE was out there busting her ass in any demeaning job she could get, sometimes two at a time, to make ends meet. Living in a town that didn't offer their kids a lot of options, but clearly loved them…

I mentioned some of this on another article recently. And this is really more of a full scale pregnancy horror, story, but here goes. So, it took me 3 years to get pregnant with my son. That included the indignity of a plethora of infertility tests and treatments. I ended up getting pregnant while we were on a short…

They once referred to him as our new "hobby."

"As a 43 year old guy your goods are rotting, too."

Bah, I met my BF when he was 27 and I was 33 and chronically unattached (god I met some losers in my time), I totally didn't give a shit anymore and thought I was just having fun - 6 years later and we have the baby, the house, the partnership blah blah blah. It's been a blast :)

I've been playing the dating game a long time, and if a woman doesn't respond to me immediately I don't freak out. I wait, and then send another message the next day, usually in the vein of "Hello!" or "Good morning/afternoon!" and if they don't respond for a couple days then I move on. No big deal.

Safe. Sane. CONSENSUAL.

And by movie you mean a six-hour epic that chronicles their lives, love, and struggles in America's changing landscape, right? Because I need that like now.

If you want me to start listing the ways our state and federal governments treat our citizens like crap, we're going to be here a long fucking time, dude.

What a sad situation. I feel about being a gamer the same way I feel about being an American, incredibly proud and equally ashamed.

Because our country hates women and the idea of someone "getting away" with something, even if the thing they are "getting away" with is manufacturing and caring for a tiny human.

I don't think you're an anomaly. My dad has has received millions of dollars of state of the art cancer treatments and surgeries over the last 13 years, something that we would never have been able to afford in the U.S. He finds it a great comfort to sit in that waiting room at his world-class cancer treatment center…

Jezebelles and Jezebeaux, this is Sleep Sheep. Sleep Sheep is a plush toy that can be velcro'ed to your baby's crib, and when you press one of four buttons on the back, it plays as many white noise options. Our favorite is "Ocean."
