I’m just going to drop this in the middle of the firestorm of comments, because you are lucky enough to live in the UK:

Finally some good news of the day, Muad’dib is back.

“What if Commander Riker were a 90s tv mom?”

That’s EXACTLY how it works.

That’s how the children of the super wealthy are taught how wealth is generated in this new Gilded Age.

I’ve passed kidney stones without meds, I’ve had a Humvee blow up and turn my right leg into fourty pounds of flank steak, and I’ve had ten guage needles rammed in my eyelids. You put me in a locked room playing Phish for an hour and you’ve broken me, I’ll tell you what you want to know!!! JUST MAKE IT STOP!!!

“We’ve done Coachella, EDC, Ultra, everything.”
Even when I was 20, this statement would make me want to punch that person.

South Korea and the US have a pretty good handle on surveillance over the north, and they’ve dealt with the threat of war for decades that I can see how SK wouldn’t go to like DEFCON 1 unless there were massive troop buildups and such.

i was drunk on saturday and some girl was complaining that she was gonna die alone and that her ovaries are dying (she’s 24, i am almost 31) and i yelled “ONE, don’t come at an older woman and worry about not being able to produce children and TWO the president you voted for is gonna get us all fuckin nuked by tuesday…

RIGHT??? When my friend was HELLA pregnant you could see her belly move in a few spots and I was like, “That is some Chestburster shit.”

he is kind of super religious too (which fine, be religious but keep it to yourself please) and then the whole thing with the cat.

I third all of this! I am repulsed by the thought of all of this and just the mechanics of a human baby living within like I am a parasite hotel. The actual science mechanics behind the whole thing freak me out in ways I cannot begin to describe. *shudder* I once told someone who asked why I didn’t have or want kids…

I was the same way growing up as an only! All my cousins on one side of the family were at least 7 years older so everyone treated me and spoke to me like a small adult growing up. I was always around older humans. My friends with kids now say I do the same thing that I grew up with and say it’s fascinating to watch…

“Frankly, you should have to have a reason for having kids, not have a reason for not having them.”

 Being socially awkward isn’t the worst thing a person can be! And I’ve noticed that people who accuse others of it don’t always have great social skills themselves. They’re often loud, pushy and obnoxious. What’s perceived as socially awkward is sometimes just having the manners to remain calm, waiting your turn to…

Are you me? That’s the same thing I say all the time. I have NEVER liked children, even when I was one. I was the only kid in a family full of adults—literally. So it was just me and grownups and I learned very quickly that listening to adult conversation is much more interesting than trying to talk with a child who…

I am a longtime single(it’s just worked out that way), childless, fierce woman who has found a way through hard work, lots of education, sacrifice, luck and self-advocacy in a male dominated field, to slowly work my way out of relative poverty into a successful career that is meaningful to me and culturally important.…

This is because the moment you say you don’t want kids, everyone exclaims, “But don’t you love babies! Babies are so cute! Children will make you a real human being! I never loved until I had a child! Your decision is very bad because kids are so great!”

I don’t hate kids, I just don’t enjoy their company.

It may not be the Death Star just yet, but we took down a Super Star Destroyer.
