Guitar Workshop by any chance...?

Wasn’t it used to preserve evidence on his clothing?

Absolutely. No matter what way you shake it out, if it was a wanted pregnancy it’s a really shitty situation. (And even if it wasn’t a wanted pregnancy, feelings can be complicated.) I honestly don’t feel like there’s a right or wrong way to go about announcing one’s pregnancy, I just feel like we need to shake up…

So taking this conversation in a weird, probably-more-serious-than-you-were-ever-thinking turn, but I’ve long ago accepted my lot in life as a total (good-natured) buzzkill...

I *may* have started crying when they discussed that in the film. And, just maybe, I’m tearing up thinking about it now.

Aww. I have a soft spot for Elmo...

You’re nicer than I: I told my kids Dinosaur Train wasn’t on anymore because Don ALONE drove me up the fucking wall.

Yep. My 2nd child was delivered by a CNM: she was amazing. But the unfortunate discounting of midwifery (which can be great) has obscured what it can be and opened up anyone to call themselves a “midwife.”

Birth TRAUMA is absolutely real and can happen during any kind of birth. BirthRAPE is so intentionally inflammatory that I can’t help but think of it as propaganda.

Please tell me you know I’m not serious about hymen inspections...

As someone who is (essentially) a mommy blogger for a living: yes. Or, rather, those “somebodies” are a vocal and awful minority. Most of us don’t actually give a shit about most of it. But sanctimommys are awful and everywhere.

The one who delivered my daughter was one of them! Incidentally, she isn’t among the circle of midwives who tosses around the term “birth rape.”

GODDAMNIT I AM NEVER GOING TO BE ABLE TO HAVE NICE THINGS!

The blended root beer floats from Sonic have changed my life.

Sonic milkshakes are ballin’.

Honestly, any Dr. Who reference was entirely coincidental. I was going for another Jurassic Park line
