Nooo I’m sorry!

I’m so sorry you’re dealing with that. Having to lose dad AND feel pressured to take care of mom must be so, so difficult.

They do, but they aren’t close to them (geographically or emotionally). My dad has three sisters who are all extremely conservative and religious (polar opposites of him), though well-intentioned most of the time. My mom has a brother who lives far away and prefers to do his own thing.

ALSO MY DAD

I’m an only child, and I never wanted a sibling. Looking back, I can see that my parents were able to give me a more comfortable life than their income generally would allow for a family because I was the only child they had to look out for. I was not spoiled with things, though maybe I was a little spoiled with love.…

but surely there was some kind of lubricant included?!

I feel the same way! I’d much rather be overdressed than underdressed. Plus fancy is fun.

I’ve found it’s a huge hassle to use my married name socially without it being my legal name, mostly because people constantly write checks to married name. I’d rather get all the paper work out of the way once rather than deal with the confusion the rest of my life. The only reason i haven’t yet is because we both…

I’ve known people who have split their names between the kids, like the boys get dad’s name, girls get mom’s (or a less gendered approach, like just trading off). Or, one of you could concede and have your last name be a middle.

I actually didn’t want a bridal shower because I didn’t think we needed more than what we asked for on our wedding registry (plus, sexism). But my aunts reeeally wanted to throw me one, and people brought gifts anyway and it was a fantastic time.

Oh fuck off, why are you so irritated by someone’s life? That’s what social media is for. I’m currently pregnant after two miscarriages so I’m pretty fucking excited about sharing my weekly bump photo. Haters to the left.

I was thinking the blood diaper might be a good earth friendly solution to accompany my Diva, since I am still afraid to wear it without a pantyliner. SOMETIMES I PUT IN WRONG. I haven’t for a very long time, but still...

Oh my god I never noticed. I knew they had 31 flavors, but...

Louis said he just cast the actor and didn’t think about the race because he didn’t want it to be a deciding factor. His kids look 100% white. The subject isn’t even addressed on the show.

Yeah! I like you :)

Mars, the Roman god of war and agricultural guardian, was male. He was a stereotypically male archetype, specifically given attributes that the Romans (and most cultures before and since) considered masculine.
In terms of the name itself, it possibly comes from Latin “mas,” or “male.”
The Mars symbol is used…

Wait, is the girl Mars? I guess that’s cool in a genderbendy way.

Alien friends AND god friends. It’s really a win-win situation.

Achilles is a pretty badass name!
