Are you fucking kidding me?

You’ve obviously not spent much time in East Texas.

I don’t buy that someone just doesn’t know how babies are made after kid #2. Having babies makes some people feel worthwhile and distracts them from their own shitty lives. It’s completely selfish. I come from a poor community too. These girls aren’t braindead. They know sex makes babies. They want to take on the…

It is honestly baffling that they thought it would work. It shows how incredibly disconnected they actually were from the political sphere before taking an official job at the fucking White House. Their resort to a bribe (federal funding for ending abortions), and their belief that such a bribe might actually produce…

I didn’t say it was the only metric, but how good could things have been if they didn’t even make a decade. They wouldn’t be divorcing if they’d had nine good years. They probably had maybe four, five good years if they’re divorcing already with a young kid. My guy and I have been together going on 13 years and we’re…

I love Kacey Musgraves SO MUCH. I was never a country music fan, mostly because my emotionally-abusive stepmother and shitty enabling father are, and the genre was tied up with their reactionary, religious bullshit in a way that made it impossible to enjoy, even if baby-bi Marillenbaum was cool with all the gender…

I’m sure this is especially beneficial to the fetus, whose well-being the right always so staunchly protects.

You’re absolutely right. Women and moms in particular try to pretend we have everything together even if we’re barely scraping by. This only serves to perpetuate those stereotypes and make those who can’t pretend feel like failures.

Eh, she’ll be fine, after he inevitably cheats on her after mooching for a while, she’ll go crying back to daddy who’ll pay off her divorce bills, and she’ll move to the next awful decision, while leaving her kid to be raised by the babysitter.

And mommy’s original nose.

The baby has his mother’s eyes and his father’s neck tattoos

I don’t get this attitude of don’t take the kid out until they leave the table clean. I supervise my kids so they are not majorly disruptive to other customers - this is the criteria where you should not take the kids out (except maybe to a pizza place or fast food). Beyond this, if they make a mess I clean up the big…

Thank you. This is a great piece.

“We, uh, sent them to a farm upstate where they can run around with their friends!”

Well actually, test scores vis-à-vis the rest of the world have not gone up

As someone who went through the ivf process, it’s not just the money for ivf, it’s the money for the meds, time off work, rearranging your entire life because NOTHING ELSE MATTERS when going through fertility treatment ADDED to the fact that whatever is in that freezer might be your best/only shot at parenthood. I…

I do really like that it’s an ongoing series, not just something happening for one day. Because my first thought before I got to that point was “featuring these 15 people is great, but it hardly makes a dent in the number of women who’ve been overlooked”. But it sounds like they’ve recognized that

Black or charcoal suits for men...females should wear yellow, gold, magenta, cyan, but avoid red, blue or purple.”

Does it matter if she did?
