Baffling. He has a sweet 'stache and everything!

I get the impression that american culture just...does not value kids. Parents can’t get normal parental leave (we have one year of paid maternal leave after birth), spanking is still normal and common thing in a pretty big art of population, the working hours don’t offer any real time for real, constant bonding, day…

This is so important. Even knowing why a child is acting a certain way at certain stages can create so much more empathy and patience. Your two year old is not screaming “no!” to annoy the shit out of you, make you late, and piss you off. They are learning that they are a separate person from you who has their own…

You know, it’s readily available in every library, on the internet, from the doctor- so many places. But people have to be willing to listen and learn and that’s a problem. My brother is literally parenting with a early childhood educator and tells her she is wrong, and too soft, and tosses all info she prints off for…

This, but honestly it’s gotta be more than just pamphlets.  Parenting is SO. HARD.  And it gets primal.  It’s incredibly difficult to parent differently than you were parented.  Even if you were parented well, the stress of work and money and taking care of another human being who lacks the capacity to take care of…

I wish - mine doesn’t. I get some paperwork on when my babies moved to “solids” and how to ween and things like that - but nothing on discipline.

We need to start arming parents with the tools to raise children. Doesn’t matter if you are a young parent or an old parent - lots of people just don’t have a fucking clue on what to do when your kid is acting up.

Saying as the game is too plodding to watch any more, I’m less concerned about the players, and more about the rules. 

NBC’s apology is in the same spirit of the guys who said they were sorry for not having enough lifeboats on the Titanic the day after it sank.

It’s NBC—the network that only recently discovered Megyn Kelly was and is irredeemably racist. And who will be paying her tens of millions of dollars to leave.

“See, liberals are the true fascists! They are against free speech!”

“After further review we recognize the insensitive nature of the ad and have decided to cease airing it across our properties as soon as possible.”

On the bright side at least it wasn’t the NFL’s yearly game from Mexico City. 

The official pitching him the ball at the end is the cherry on top. He’ll probably get fined by Goodell for not having a surlier reaction.

A football coach’s sense of humor should be graded on a curve, anyway

I just love how every single coach hired from the Patriots only seems to have learned only the wrong things from coaching under Belichick.

The Dolphins’ coach had some fun today:

If this is Fords U625 vehicle, as a supplier who has worked on it, I can say with certainty, the average person is not going to notice a difference between what is pictured here, and the version that will hit the showroom floors.

OK, this settles it. Lincoln just needs to be the American Land Rover. Just give up sedans and go all-in on SUVs. It’s their strength. Ford doesn’t have a sedan platform worthy of a luxury car anyway. They do, however, have a new Bronco coming out that may look good in these clothes.

I hate how nice this looks and I hate how I kinda want one.
