Yeah? So this guy wants his own kid to be popped out over a bed of cabbage, then?

Sometimes I lay awake at night worrying about all the unused bootstraps out there.

Having parents coddle newborns like this by being around them too much will deprive them of important bootstraps early on in life.

Queue the requisite "Mothers are just LAZY they should pop out their BABIES then GO BACK TO WORK instead of expecting the GOVERNMENT to pay for their decision to have BABIES."

Maybe he's looking to get a little of this action:

I actually don't mind when I hear people say "What about black-on-black violence" or "What about teenage pregnancy" because it lets me know immediately that they are ignorant fuckweasels, so I no longer have to waste my time speaking to them.

Six years ago my then 3 year old son saw the Santa version of the snowman pan in the catalog and asked me to get it. I did because I was 7 months pregnant and felt guilty about this being his last Christmas without a sibling. WORST DECISION. First, the fancy ass decorations in the catalog were done with fruit…

Everybody in this life has his or her personal line that cannot be crossed. I want you to ask yourself what your line is.

A woman I work with recently told me this insane story from 20+ years ago about how she was jogging and was grabbed by someone, pulled into the brush of the park, and held at knifepoint. She had just happened to read in Ladies' Home Journal about if you ever get abducted to tell a story to your abductor. I think they…

my grandmother was decorating editor of this in the 50s— but had to quit when she got pregnant because they didn't have maternity leave (of course). We have some mock ups and sketches of different shoots she organized and spaces she designed and, while I am biased, they aren't as dated as you would imagine.

Goddamn right the '30's are an under appreciated decade for fashion! The bias cut was practically invented in the '30's. Clothes from the '30's are my vintage shopping holy grail. I have a couple of very luxe silk satin nightgowns from that era and they are probably the most sensual things that I own. The silhouette…

You know, if those goddamned trolls hadn't ruined it for everyone, I would be able to post the 1969 moon landing cross stitch/embroidery pattern from LHJ I found at an antique store this summer. It's amazing. Fucking trolls. And also fucking women's magazines for no longer having embroidery patterns.

Why you gotta hate on the hobbits, eh?

Its actually Ray Albers, apparently:

I've explained this stuff enough in the last couple days so I'll just quote a nextcity article: "After the National Housing Act of 1934, the Federal Housing Authority began a practice known as redlining, which blocked black and low-income neighborhoods from receiving FHA-backed home loans through color-coded maps.…

Philadelphia is another good example. Comcast/ Xfinity built a massive tower downtown and is working on another. You have rapidly gentrifying neighborhoods all around the city. And then just a few miles away from this development. You have just unbelievably poor and desolate areas. There are parts of the city…

And the media is complicit in this also. All the people who showed up at Ted Bundy's ranch with guns blazing were called "supporters" and the protestors in Ferguson were referred to as an "angry mob" on Saturday, 24 whole hours before any kind of looting started. Sometimes it all just seems so hopeless, and feels like…

Uppity. I think they mean uppity.

You know what? I'm straight and I don't want to sleep with most men. Break that news to them if you want to see them really stunned.
