I had thirty people at my baby shower for two hours and I thought I was going to die. I can’t imagine a wedding WEEKEND, complete with a goddamn ferris wheel and god only knows how many guests. Lawd.

“the terms of Katie’s divorce from Tom Cruise, which required that she not publicly date anyone else for five years following their split, which happened in 2012.”

But Tom could and did date publicly and often.

What if you get Ricky and Lucy beds?

My dog has never once woken my exhausted ass up out of a dead sleep by “accidentally” rubbing his morning wood on my back in a selfish attempt to get laid.

It’s been 6 years since I was in a relationship, and it’s been 12 years since my divorce...the memory of how frequently they ALL try that shit still pisses me off.…

I’m very apprehensive about this. I was a huge fan of Artemis Fowl when I was a Kid. I’ll be very pissed off if Disney messes them up. The main reason I loved them is because I’m Irish and the Fowl books were the first YA books to introduce a new modern updated take on Irish traditional folklore and mythology. Eoin…

ironically that was the original hook that britney spears wrote. 

When people stop being scared of a disease, that’s when they stop protecting themselves against it, and that’s when it comes back again. Ever since PrEP we’ve seen people doing the “yay! I don’t need to ever wear condoms again!” dance, right before they cause a local outbreak of syphilis or gonorrhea.

With my second pregnancy, my OB had moved to an office near the University of MN campus, which is also the home to Minneapolis’ large Somali population.

I post this and link the CDC’s vaccination website everytime people might question whether vaccines are a good idea.

I think part of the problem is that vaccination has been too successful. When I was a kid there was still a lot of institutional and firsthand memory of what even the relatively mild “childhood” diseases were really like, and vaccines to prevent them were properly celebrated as a way that science makes our lives…

Vote, people. Vote early. Vote consistently. Vote even when you don’t have strong happy feelings about the stuff you’re voting on. Because the other side does that, and they’re gonna keep at it, and the only way we can keep them from gaining (more) power is at the ballot box.

I was diagnosed with Stage 3 ovarian cancer in my twenties, and the only reason I was is that I went to the gynecologist for the first time (yes, I know; please, everyone, learn from my fail) and when she was doing the pelvic exam, she noticed my uterus seemed unusually large. I wound up having surgery, as they…

It’s pretty clear he hasn’t and won’t.

“Well, sure, kids die from measles, but hey! Better dead than autistic. Plus, kids only get the measles if you weren’t feeding them exclusively on alkaline water and organic vegetables. That’s just SCIENCE!”

He seems surprised that “there is so much hate and negativity toward [him].” I wonder if it has anything to do with him paying someone to murder the mother of his child?

I’ve been doing some family genealogy for the past few years. Two of my great-great grandparents were deaf (married to each other), and while my great-great grandfather was born deaf, my great-great grandmother lost her hearing when she was two. From measles. Given the climate right now, it infuriated me to see that…
