I recently watched a video on how to combat climate change and the number one way to do it was to have one less child than you planned on. It’s really resonated with me because my husband and I are currently contemplating having a third. I don’t know if we should, but that thought process is currently at odds with my…

She does appeal to everyone. At her concerts, you see everyone from evangelicals to drag queens.

I had a missed miscarriage with my first pregnancy and went through my OB for the D&C (or abortion) at the hospital that they work with. Talk to your OB about this issue, because you don’t want to need an abortion and die because they won’t provide it. I had spotting late in another pregnancy and made my husband drive…

He may be a good actor, but I’ve heard—on very good authority—that he’s a domestic abuser. So...there’s that.

I fucking hate Amy. I hated Amy when I read the book when I was a kid, and I still can’t stand her. Amy sucks.

I LOVED this book so much. I remember, in 4th or 5th grade, we had to select book passages to act out with friends as a class project and I picked this book. Now I have to revisit it. Thanks!

I had this conversation with my daughters’ school librarian—I read adult books as a tween and teen, and missed a lot of the symbolism and other more adult themes. I remember reading It when I was 12. When I spoke to our librarian, she said that while I could comprehend the words and follow the story, adult books are…

A key aspect to the Baby Boxes in Finland’s success was also the home visits to post-partum moms and long maternity and paternity leaves. While some places in the US are trying the boxes, the result will not likely improve infant mortality rates because it’s just the box, not the program/actual aid. Until we make…

Ok—zombie dragon is terrifying and can chomp people easily, but I have a question: what else can it do? I can’t imagine something that can be destroyed by fire can breathe fire, so will it breathe...ice fire? Or will it just be terrifying and big and really hard to kill (by anything other than dragonfire and…

Fun fact: when I first met my husband and he mentioned “r kid Sarah” I thought he had a child. Turns out, it’s just a Mancunian term for a sibling/cousin/relative.

Yes! I completely agree. Invite Ann or Milo or Richard or Tomi to your campus and then—just don’t show up. Or, if you do show up, stand silently with your back to the speaker. Don’t protest. It’s just playing into our stereotypes on how we’re special snowflakes who preach about tolerance but refuse to listen to the…

My husband—who didn’t grow up with L&O—watched a few episodes of Grace & Frankie and said he didn’t find Sam Waterston believable as a lawyer.

She wasn’t exactly upset when she would leave Choate for long weekends to do fashion shows in Milan...as a freshman.

Those are dress-up clothes for little kids, though. There aren’t a ton of options.

I just really want to know how that barrette stays in. My 20-month-old gleefully pulls them out and then runs around like a sheepdog.

It’s absolutely because of a lack of maternity leave. There are so many complications involved postpartum, and your first doctor’s appointment isn’t until you’re six weeks after you’ve had the baby. If we had federally mandated maternity leave, it would absolutely save lives.

As someone who has a heart issue, having c sections ensured I wouldn’t die. So the high percentage of c/s may not be it.

No! They’re still buddies! Tom Hanks produced the From the Earth to the Moon series a few years ago and hired Peter Scolari to narrate. Bosom buddies indeed.
