The internet is not made up solely of Firefly fans. It’s 20% Browncoats, 20% Bronies, 10% Unwashed Greasy Gamergaters, 15% People Who Say “Actually” And/Or “To Be Fair” in comments, and 69% Porn.

Most people would rather see a bare boob then listen to a kid scream. I certainly would.

If you wait, sometimes even ten minutes, you get mastitis. Mastitis fucking sucks. Also when you have a kid their crying triggers engorgement and milk flow- which hurts if there’s not a tiny hot mouth getting the milk out. Also it hurts a mother’s soul and is extremely distressing. Nature!

It has nothing to do with babies “starving.” As a matter of fact, I’m nursing my daughter right now (at home), but I have no qualms about nursing in public. I don’t use a cover, either (I’ve tried but she hates it and I’m not going to wrestle a baby who has my nipple in her mouth). And while sure, the baby CAN wait,…

Please. Out of all the people who ran in 2016, the most Hufflepuff of them all was Lincoln Chaffee.

It’s one of those stories that alot of kids read in grade school about getting a monkey’s paw but then it curses you and ruins your life and you would think the moral is maybe stop carrying around disembodied animal parts like trophies but I think it’s actually to be happy with what you have.

Thats fine, side eye freely. My objection isn’t that everyone needs to accept veganism, it’s that arresting people for feeding their kids vegan diets without any evidence of malnourishment is unnecessary, and difficult to enforce. Insufficiently nurishing your kids is already against the law, and rightly so.

So, I’m Gwen Snyder, the woman in the article. It was a pretty awful experience and my biggest hope is to use it to make some sort of positive change at the DNC and at the Doubletree, which refused to help me. I do have a couple asks if folks want to take action:

There are plenty of omnivorous kids who eat nothing but french fries and oreos, too. Most kids are getting supplements via enriched shakes, enriched juices, enriched cereals, enriched packaged foods. Kids are picky and difficult to feed and when I used to work in an after school program, half the kids ate hot fries or…

This doesn’t surprise me.
My mom on multiple occasions reported my step father for physical abuse... when the cop showed up though he would be super cool with the cops and the cops would come over to my mom trying to “talk some sense” into her. My mom was flabbergasted and tried to show them the bruises and blood- but…

Apart from those banana eating lunatics on youtube, I’ve never encountered a condescending vegan. All vegans and vegetarians I know never discuss their diets with anyone except sometimes other vegans/vegetarians, and then it’s only to swap recipes. If anyone finds out about their diet, they are quick to assure that…

I don’t think that’s wrong. It’s not like you were guilt tripping anyone or being confrontational. You were sharing something you were happy about.

I think everyone needs to do their research on nutrition, not just vegans.

Sure, but there are also parents who feed their kids hot dogs and saltines and not much else, and it doesn't appear there are laws targeting them. I think everyone needs to do their research on nutrition, not just vegans.

I think it’s a philosophical thing. They are very different things which look superficially similar (and have similar names, obviously). Wars is a fabulist fairy tale with Space Wizards and Space Magic which is ultimately mysterious (lah lah lah Midichlorians do not exist, not listening!) and the world is cyclical, an…

“Star Trek wouldn’t have lasted without Star Wars”

Exactly, I’m staring at the lead image forever, resisting the urge to scroll down and see the answer, I finally scroll down, see it immediately in the full picture and get pissed that it wasn’t in the original picture to start with.

Not in the lead image, I can’t. :P

Wow, none of those things are things she said. Or things that Obama said. Or things that we do.
