I love your handle.

But, but, but....emails! Lock him up! Seriously, another GOP hypocrite? What a shocker!

It was always the woman’s fault then. “Were you wearing a miniskirt? Were you drinking? Why were you at that party? You probably thought he’d give you a part in his film....”

Fellow vegan here, and this debate just exhausts me. Like, seriously?! The stupid dairy industry gets loads of government supplementation - and *still* can’t compete, and somehow they think the problem is that they call it almond/coconut/soy/rice “milk”?! F off with that already. Consumers are making a choice that…

Sorry, I don’t buy their story at all. There have been school-aged White House kids in the past, and all of them seem to have weathered the sorrows, terror and heartbreak of moving to DC, enrolling in a high-dollar private school and living in the most famous residence in the United States just fine. Most other…

Nah, fuck her. She helped 45 spread that birther bullshit. I know people feel sorry for her because they think she didn’t sign up for this gig but she supported that asshole through the entire campaign and defended him after the sexual assault allegations came out. She’s a willing partner in all this, and she gets to…

It’s actually a terrible book to read to sick kids. It’s a book you give to people transitioning in life (graduating, etc.) because it speaks of all the wonderful choices you have and where you’ll go. Those THREE sick kids (including one too young to understand you) don’t have much choice in their lives due to their…

Wow, has Melania really never seen how most people read a book to a crowd? I mean, at least show them the pictures at some point.

for you, i will do this...but i cant promise any more than 2%.

My mil (who is a nurse practitioner) was in the room with me and kept being my white knight every time the nurse wanted to do something I didn’t. It was hilarious to me, she would just roll up on the lady and start backseat nursing.

Do you genuinely think there was no stated source for the money for free college?

Congratulations. You’ll do great. Make sure that your partner is in the room and is aware of your preferences. When my wife had our three children, I was able to act as her voice when she was in pain or confusion. As an example, my wife did not want any drugs during her first birth (that was not the case for the next…

As my wife told me after having our 2 girls (grown now), being in labor for 23 hours for the first one and an unplanned c-section for the second, looking back it was no big deal. The real scary times came at their teenage years. It was something similiar to the Exorcist.

The best decision I ever made before I had my daughter was hiring a doula. A doula is a person who helps you prepare for birth and stays with you during labor to help you advocate for yourself. Mine helped me work through a long and complicated labor and make informed decisions the whole way through. It was great to…

@CassandraSays: I had a nasty first pelvic exam too. I was young and being evaluated for a cyst. The doctor didn't explain anything and did quite a few things that hurt. I too was told "that doesn't hurt", and then after her spending about four minutes with me, it was over. I thought that I did ok, it wasn't until…

@miss.terious: everyone's labor experience is very different. I didn't enjoy mine much, but I didn't like being pregnant either. However:

@DepecheNode: I've given birth twice, and yes, my midwife and nurses attending explained everything little thing to me. I appreciated it, and it allowed me to trust them when I was more vulnerable than any other time in my life. I can't even imagine if something was going wrong, and it was clear that things weren't…

@DepecheNode: "most women know that labor involves a doctor inserting his fingers and tools in her"

@DepecheNode: Uh, yes. A doctor is supposed to explain every single action he takes. When I go in for a gyno exam, even when I know that I am going to be getting the speculum and a pap smear (as an example), my doctor tells me exactly what she's doing as she's doing it. There should be no other way of doing things. It…
