You know, the sad thing is if they gave that to an established country artist, it would soar to the top of the charts in no time. It's actually not a terrible song. I'm no country fan, but my country-loving family members would eat that shit up with a spoon.

He's great again. But yeah, I can see why moms can upset, really, but logic has to enter into it too.

I just got Little Puddle vaccinated for the first time (2 month checkup) a few days ago. I can see why it's scary - he howled when he got the shots and spent most of the night being uncomfortable/fussy/crying. I barely slept that night worrying that he might have an allergic reaction to the vaccines.

Seconded! Lindy West is my new fave.

As a fat lady, I HATE pants. I have a small ass/hips/thighs and carry my weight in my belly. And there just are not structured pants that fit! I wear dresses almost all of the time.

Very true. My husband is on the big side AND very tall (6' 6") and finding clothes is a little bit of a nightmare - I mean, clothes that aren't $45 for a shittily-constructed t-shirt.

Oops, fair enough.

A cylon rebellion is just around the corner at this rate.

I really hate traditional engagement rings. Mr. Water and I ended up both getting engagement rings, both under $100, and his was a titanium one with some cool angles that we both loved, and mine was a thing with tiny, lab-created rubies. I'm really not into the diamond solitaire thing because FUCK I'm bored as hell of…

That's about as good as it gets! Dang. :) And yeah, everyone deserves good sex ed and access to every contraceptive option.

"RESULTS After 13 cycles, 1.8 per 100 women of the cohort experienced an unintended pregnancy; 9.2 per 100 women dropped out because of dissatisfaction with the method; the pregnancy rate was 0.6 per 100 women and per 13 cycles when there was no unprotected intercourse in the fertile time."

I also think people tend to set up these discussions about fast food as being about eating a hamburger vs. eating a salad, when in reality there are ways to prepare a hamburger that are not totally lacking in nutrition.

I'm pinpointing that because it's patently false. NFP with temping/cervical mucus checks can work for all sorts of cycle lengths once you temp for a few cycles. So yeah, NFP does take more work, especially when you're not familiar with your cycle, but it's not impossible for someone who doesn't have regular,…

And it's also predicated on having a regular or predictable cycle - which more and more women are not having.

Sperm can survive up to 5 days in the fallopian tubes. However, sperm requires fertile vaginal mucus to make the jump from the vagina up into the cervix (it acts like a ladder of sorts), and that only shows up for 2-3 days out of the month, right before and during ovulation. It has a distinct look/texture so it's…

Yes, thank you. The rhythm method really IS crap, but NFP/FAM are actually effective and based on science.

FAM is NOT the same as Rhythm Method. Rhythm Method is based on guessing, whereas FAM is based on good science.

She looks precious. I hope you hear back soon.

Congrats. From what I've seen on here, you're such nice dude and you so deserve it.

Oh god, one of my cats does this too. WHY.
