Correct. I had good experiences with Deva brand (unrelated to the haircare) but most multivitamins are going to get most of what you need. Also, what good is any medicine if you just throw it back up. Better to get 50% of what you need that none of it. 

I’d love to hear more about this. 

Delicious when infused in vodka or turned into marmalade. There’s a belief that the latter helps bring on labor, but it just made my toast absolutely delicious.

Where are they playing the national anthem at the opera?

As someone who went through fertility treatments, I can say that they can be so wholly overwhelming (physically and emotionally) that just keeping everything in your life moving, let alone plan the little logistics for the next 18 years. Also, there is so much that just comes up and you can’t or don’t know how to plan…

I’m sorry your mom is being this way. If you think you don’t want kids, that’s your answer right there. My parents had planned on not having kids but my mom got pregnant and they decided to give it a go. Growing up, I knew my parents treated parenting differently than many of my peers. My relationship with one parent…

A PBA kicking out one of their own? That’s a first. 

Damn, your schedule sounds awesome. 

Patriarchy. After teenage girls, mothers are the most readily mocked for liking something or having something associated with them. 

Honestly, me too. If you’re going to do it, it can be nice to have something that is interesting to look at and let’s you just fill things in. Sure, I could probably put together something like this on my own, but I honestly would never get around to it. 

Yup. I’ve often found myself wondering how different my life would be if I’d had scheduling skills (and a sertraline scrip) in college. People assumed I’d do great at it because I’d balanced so much in high school, except that all the scheduling was determined by other people and was so back to back that I never had…

Yup. I’ve never had wine come out of my nose before. Don’t recommend it but the tweet was worth it. 

But it was all pornography’s fault! /s

I used to think the hippie parents in the town where I grew up were the worst. They named their kids things like Rainbow and Dreamcatcher. However, at least they meant it sincerely -they wanted their kids to be colorful dreamers- instead of just throwing together a letter salad to be special.

Wow this woman is a walking parody of Karen-ness. I really thought this was going to be a satire piece and the picture was a stock photo.

Skippy has been doing this since at least 2003. My grandmother was a sample lady and occasionally sent me care packages of stuff from her demos and this was once of them.

The other kids’ names are Kova, Jaka, Radley and Onyx. They have a serious naming problem. 

When I saw those pictures, my first thought was that I would sooner sit under a cold shower than enter that packed mass of wet people. So gross. Then, I realized it was recent and wondered how sick they were all going to get. As it turns out...very. They’re having more hospital admissions with COVID than at any time…

If he was nonverbal, she could have explained it away with any number of things.

My husband works in an open office in an area where rents are super high. They’re pretty good about creating spaces to have quiet meetings, conversations, etc, so they could probably make the distancing thing work by removing all the open space. Instead, they’ve already said that anyone who wants to work remotely…
