For sure the phrase is used that way. But it doesn’t make sense in the context she used it, which is saying that if she had to promote herself via instagram then she wouldn’t do it. She allegedly does not do it now. (Her sister basically does it for her/makes her do it...how nice that she gets to have he her cake and…

Yes, the “er” is part of the phrase because it compares older people to younger people (or your younger self), implying that generally, younger people are stupider than older people. The phrase is about comparison. I stand by that whether Giselle said it or not. I would still have the same interpretation if anyone…

The “er” at the end of wise inherently implies she is comparing herself to someone else. She is saying she is wiser than the young models today. Which, ok fine. But the whole point of the phrase it to imply that young people do stupid stuff that you would not do when you are older, so she is calling them stupid or…

This is my beef with Gisele. She always manages to be an asshole, even when the core of what she is saying isn’t that bad. I get the notion that you would not want to have the career and added social media pressure that these younger models have. But then you have to add the “older and wiser” comment, like they are…

It would be nice if these articles included some information on trustworthy places to donate or ways that a person sitting behind a computer, many states away can help. I feel overwhelmed when I read these stories and would like to have a way to help, rather than just sitting here as a horrified gaper.

That’s amazing that you were able to do that for someone. It’s truly beyond selfless. As I said, intellectually I get it. But postpartum, nursing my baby, with hormones coursing through my body, watching these two men treat their surrogate so shittily - like she was just a microwave that they could press stop on and…

That’s the fake tan for the stage. But the blonde hair really sets off the orange of the tan.

No, that’s not what I said at all.

I agree. The way surrogacy was portrayed on the show was so bad it actually made me question whether it was a good thing for people. It probably did not help that I had recently given birth myself and could not imagine handing over my baby. I would get overwhelmingly emotional when I thought about a baby not being…

Eh...I had the same question (*insert shrug emoji here*). I think it is relevant because it sort of sheds light on his lie or confusion. If they had sex, maybe he did not know she had p-in-v sex before him and actually thought he was her first? (Still an a-hole for talking about it, but maybe not a deliberately lying…

No one will see this b/c I am gray here, but Charlie’s Soap Laundry Spray is AMAZING. It gets out breastmilk, poop stains, dirt...it even got coconut oil out of my couch (pumping hazard). Seriously this stuff is so good. And it is super “clean.” (I think it is a 1 or a 0 in ThinkDirty). I also love their Oxygen…

It’s interesting that this is seems to correlate with the rise in social media and the prevalence of the internet.

Anyone have any good ways to help a toddler stop getting motion sickness (i.e. puking her guts out) in a rear-facing car seat?

For some reason the Danica Patrick cameo made me literally laugh out loud. I don’t know why... she just seemed like she walked on the the wrong set from a Go Daddy commercial or something.

Wait, what’s wrong with flashcards? My one year old old loves them! She likes to point to each one and I tell her what the thing on the card is. She is also likes to find her favorite ones (e.g. “can you find the bears?” and she does.) It’s not like we stay inside all day grilling her on flash cards, but they are…

The Doona carseat stroller might be a good answer for you (while you have an infant at least).

We just took a vacation with one car seat and did this for our ride to the airport. We ordered an XL, installed the seat, and went to the airport. I left a nice tip. The driver did not complain and does not appear to have rated me poorly, so I think it was ok?

you PUSHED for 24 hours? Or were in labor for 24 hours?

I did pelvic floor PT to help with specific pain I was having (both during pregnancy and post-partum), but I would not have done it just ‘cuz. I did do a lot of pelvic floor and squat work to help keep my core strong, prevent/mitigate diastasis recti, and help position my pelvis and open it up. I think it helped. But,…
