Kids are just gonna suck on that straight from the tube and skip dipping veggies in it

Yes! This! I have always felt as though boob-molded armor would be way more uncomfortable than helpful. 

Unpopular opinion: I liked her wedge boots. 😂

Not sure I love the boob armor here, but the aesthetics of this image are gorgeous.  I love the way the crazy background is reflected onto the gleaming metal armor.

Today I bribed my daughter to get in the car to go to preschool by giving her a paper clip. Her favorite outdoor toy is a tie between an old bucket and our rain gutter. Good for whoever profits off these tours for finding a way to syphon money from people who have too much of it, but children will play with absolutely …

Why do rich people have such awful hair and makeup? If I were rich, I’d be flying Jonathan Van Ness in to do my hair and getting skin treatments every week

One of my friends paid 249 bucks to sit in a private jet for 30 minutes, changed outfits a couple times, and snapped enough different photos so that all of his followers will think he is a regular private jet Traveler.

I just think it’s funny that she was actually at the beach (a fun place to be), pretending to be at a music festival in the Inland Empire (the 9th circle of hell).

That’s gonna be a no from me dog.

I happily explain to me teen daughters the massive delightful freedom of being over 30--a magical passage of years that allows you to literally not care about what is in style or what others thing. :D I’m actually commenting way more than I thought I would giving the article made me roll my eyes and thing “who had…

You think mom style assumptions are bad wait til you’re old. Don’t have long hair it drags your face down,don’t wear bright colors,don’t wear patterns,don’t wear heels or loud makeup or anything that shows your decolletage or your arms or your legs. No glitter make-up,no funky hair colors, no fun anything at all.…

Honestly, I’ve opted out of Mothers’ Day. We make sure to call our moms (who live far away), and wish them a happy Mothers’ Day. But for myself? Fuck it. Really and truly, fuck it. I had a few years where my husband would ask, “What do you want to do for Mother’s Day?” And my response was, “Uh . . . Not have to plan…

“It wasn’t until we met people that actually enjoyed their kids and parenting that we decided to take the plunge.”

I’m really happy to hear that. I’m GenX and I’ve chosen to not have kids b/c, as a woman who cares about her career and also loves volunteering, hobbies, travel, and some lazy time too, I looked at women around me in my 20s who were having kids and it looked like they weren’t loving it. They were exhausted, starting…

I’m pretty stoked about it. I don’t know any dad with kids younger than high school who isn’t doing what we would’ve thought was fantastic by dad standards a decade ago. I will admit that this fear shaped my own choices: my career pays well and requires a lot, and I’m not great at balance, so I thought that having…

Progress is happening, I agree. Every father I know in the 35-50 age range is a true partner. Well, I can think of one who isn’t, but he sucks in general. It’s night and day from the distant dads of my childhood. And it’s not just spending time with kids - it’s  taking on the emotional labor and sharing the tedium of…

I am in a weird world where a large of my friends are women/men/couples where women are equal partners or the breadwinner. The professional world is changing a lot - esp. at the entry end, because of the attitudes of Gen X and Millennials to hours logged in the office, remote work, email, etc. as well as the public…

Medicare 4 All (Dogs)!

I agree with the sentiment of what you’re saying but let’s also give the principal a bit of slack. The reasons for her choice aren’t really covered in the NYT article (I see that they sought comment from her but high school principals don’t have flacks, so let's not be surprised if she didn't respond immediately).

Brava.   As my high functioning son says, the world used to try to convert gay people.  Now they’re accepted.  Why not autistics?
