I’m 44. While it makes me a little sad that having children was never even an option to decide against, I’d rather shave my head with a cheese grater than be chasing around after a toddler when I’m pushing 50.

Biscuit, I appreciate your opinion and your delicious clouds of carbs. Thank you for both.
What a time to be alive.
My friend died of cancer in 2016, leaving behind a 14 year old daughter and 5 year old son*. When she was dying everyone tried to stay positive, but more than one person in our circle said something like “If you die, your daughter’s college essay will write itself.” She had been a college English professor and she…
I remember reading an opinion piece from a mom who decided to give full custody of her kids to her ex and her thought process behind it. It was a really long time ago, and I remember feeling like it made a lot of sense and came from a good place, something like she felt like her job was too chaotic and she just knew…
Roe does not prohibit anything; it does allow states to prohibit later abortions absent certain reasons, which even New York does under the RHA.
What you’re doing is essentially wondering what safeguards are in place to prevent a woman from aborting, late in her pregnancy, a perfectly viable fetus when there is no apparent danger to her health. The safeguard is “doctors” and that no medical doctor will perform an abortion in this case. The other safeguard is…
The procedure that would be followed would differ by provider and hospital. There’s a case in the documentary ‘After Tiller’ that exemplifies this - a french woman with a healthy 35 wk pregnancy requests an abortion and the provider refuses to do it because it’s not safe. There is a ‘point of no return’ of sorts, but…
My mate was talking about how the Raiders shouldn’t have a home stadium, they should literally be the maundering Raiders. Live in Tampa Bay but don’t want to be a Bucs fan? Why root for a team outside your home area when you can root for everyone’s away team, the Raiders.
You call this passionate? Maybe my tone isn’t coming through clearly, I don’t mean to sound worked up about this at all. I guess I can see why it’s strange, though.
Pamela Adlon is a treasure, and it’s great to see some coverage of a more nuanced nature regarding how one processes the actions of their friends and mentors.
C’mon now, the stomach pumping urban legend has always been tied to Rod Stewart hasn’t it? Amazing how that story made it around the country before the internet.
“They didn’t believe in you! No one thought you would do it and you proved ALL the haters wrong. He’s too big. He’s too old. His time is up and he’ll never reach as high as he did earlier in his career. And yet, here you are, once again, lighting up the sky. Congrats, big man.”

One of the most infuriating things in the past two years has been the way in which Democrats and even some members of the left have suddenly become pro-FBI in a disgusting “Rah-rah let’s support the Bureau” kind of way.

Yes, they need minimums because it’s already way too easy to exploit kids as performers/athletes. Giving asshole parents and national sports organizations free rein to create little gold-medal machines with tiny windows of success and then tossing them aside just creates incentives for the worst actors.
“Well, sir, you’re polling 2% and becoming a laughingstock without a chance in hell of convincing anyone else to support you, so you might as well stop paying me these enormous sums of money now.”
I don’t know what it says about me that my first reaction here was “but cream is neutral and goes with peach and gold.”
