Losing Millihelen is the Deepest Cut of all.

I STILL GET TO HANG OUT WITH JANE AND JANE GETS TO ABSORB MY ADORATION SO TRULY THERE ARE NO LOSERS.

This news is trash. This blog is not.

It’s becoming less of a joke for me and more of a thing I’d seriously consider.

Am I the only woman who doesn’t care about the concept of a spiritual, natural, drug-free, skin-to-skin and breastfeeding-within-the-first-three-seconds-they’re-born type of childbirth? I’m just not interested in having the perfect experience. It’s probably going to be awful no matter what, and optimum bonding and

This is a really good point. The doula I’m leaning toward using also gives birthing classes and her first goal, both as a teacher and doula, is to prepare women and couple’s to be psychologically okay with birthing plans not going perfectly. That’s actually a lot of what drew me to her, especially since any doula is

I like the idea of midwife care and birthing centers in theory. But certain risks you mention are present in every single delivery, whether first baby or not, and I just don’t see how this is a choice that I would ever be comfortable for myself or, say, my daughter.

You are certainly BERNIN’!!

That’s what irks me about Bernie’s constant claims that he’s a DS - the nationalization of privately owned resources and means of production is a CORE objective of socialism. The difference is that democratic socialists want the revolution to gradually happen while the radicals want it immediately done.

uh oh....

If I am not mistaken, in socialism don’t the people own the means of production? the workers. Communism is the government. Plus Bernie is not a pure socialist a la William Morris and Co.

Well, just sit back and feel good about the fact that he’s not going to get the nomination. Think about all the schedenfreude you’re going to feel the day after all the votes were counted!

No. No way is that coincidence. I bet he just, like, rides the el all day, all around chicago, posting missed connections as soon as the train doors close.

Sanders ain’t a democratic socialist. He’s a social democrat. Let’s just say sociologists and economists suck at naming things.

Well, he’s a democratic socialist, and they have some divergent ideas from regular socialists.

The problem is that Sanders and/or the media insist on calling it ‘democratic socialism’ which 1) doesn’t exist anywhere in the world and 2) isn’t what Sanders is advocating for anyway:

Or you’re unclear on the definition of “Democratic Socialism.”
