She’s not asking for permission or advice or suggestions. She’s pointing out an unfortunate irony with this plan.

The governor asked that the president hold off to on coming, because they don’t want police shifted from the emergency assisting to helping deal with a presidential visit. Nice try though!

You’re saying she doesn’t care about votes. Her campaign does lots of work with various communities, with small groups, she has worked her ass off for people in various contexts over the years - I don’t get how that’s not caring about voters and votes.

And by the way every time you guys say “coronation” you're shitting all over my vote and the votes of millions of americans, mostly women and POC.

Look on her website under issues. She IS progressive. On some issues moreso than Bernie (because she prioritizes while he pays lip service); on others they just have different ways of getting to a similar goal (hers being more effective, in opinion of many). He lost so he doesn’t get to pick the platform (current…

I feel like Gen X we get more nostalgic for 80s.

Nobody is that tough until they have to be, you know? (I pray you never have to learn how true this is.)

I haven’t been in the dating world for a long time, and actually my time in it was very brief because I ended up being a serial monogamist. But yeah - I remember being like NO, REALLY! I didn’t want to be in the “thankful” position. Why should I?

There is no such thing as a “family” restaurant. What are people talking about??? What the fuck is a family restaurant??? Yes there are some places that are super fancy and elegant blah de blah don’t bring a baby there, but the NORMAL restaurant is one where people can go whether they are old or young or in between.…

Your honesty is appreciated. It also makes me wonder - not sarcastically - if the problem is that people aren’t exposed to babies ENOUGH. Because I don’t get how people can get to a point that they *expect* and hope for a quiet baby-free zone all the time? The human race, it’s all ages, and all that.

No. It’s not. It’s brunch. It’s food that’s both breakfast-y and lunch, and whether you go for the coffee or the wine/mimosa is up to you. People of all ages attend.

I live in a super family-filled neighborhood and all the restaurants serve alcohol. And they all have high chairs. And yes there are babies at brunch. It’s a freaking mid-day meal, not a strip club!!! I don’t even get where people are coming from on this at all. Bars, I get that there’s a discussion to be had. Brunch?…

I never understand this “family restaurant” argument. We do not need restaurants that are specific to “families.” We all come from families. We all have relatives. There is no reason to only dine with them in certain establishments. Maybe it’s because I live in a city but I don’t even know what the fuck a family…

I can’t take everyone saying this over and over. Both parents work so they have a part time nanny. You know to be with the kid while they work??! And Someone cleans twice a month. You think that means they’re being fed grapes or something??? WhT are all you people talking about??

“should I let my baby sleep 12 hours?” is a very different question from “should I try to force my baby to sleep for 12 hours by ignoring their cries for 12 hours at a time?”

I don’t know Tracy, come on. I mean I *DO* get the whole thing that you’ve got to play the hand you’re dealt and parent the kid you’ve got, and that sometimes that leads us to do things differently from how we pictured it when we were being hypothetical or philosophical about it. But not caring for an 8 week old for…

oh and the latest is that we actually shouldn't have been falling down the fat-is-evil rabbit hole, so I'm not buying the not-low-fat —> heart disease

Eh, this was the same stuff I was saying in my 20s. But then at some point I realized on the other hand, milk is actually the only substance on earth whose actual purpose is to be food, and it's also a super easy way to get in some calories, protein (and fat, if it's not skim), plus it can make things pretty…

what you just wrote is disturbing and ignorant on so many levels.

I miss the old Zach.
