Love is definitely not enough when it comes to parenting. It isn't fair but there it is.

We don't always get to have the things we want for our futures. That isn't exclusive to people with disabilities.

Um...so I am seeing this lengthy response to you with my handle on it that I most definitely did not write. I just wrote a two sentence response. No idea what manner of Kinja glitch this is but I just wanted to mention while I figure out how to get my name off it

Feeding a baby and keeping it clean are like the very bare minimum you need to care for a baby though. And she couldn't do even that much.

I'm inclined to agree. This is a win for Sara but it puts Dana in a pretty difficult position for the rest of her life. Although I strongly question allowing a Mennonite family to foster.

I would take driving in LA over public transportation any day. Yeah, there's traffic, but at least you're in a personal space bubble. New Yorkers have no concept of personal space.

Exactly. I mean, it's bad enough to be depressed, you want me to get fat and have no sex drive too? And the nausea, headaches, disturbed sleep, fuzziness, mood swings. Like, better the devil I know.

I wouldn't mind! I love that genre and I've beta read for my talented writer friends before.

Who the fuck even is Charlotte Rampling?

Wait, so men raised in a religion that treats women like walking sex objects doesn't treat them humanely during sex? Well I'm surprised...

I miss this about LA. New Englanders don't understand how I can hate their humid, buggy summers and I'm like, it doesn't have to be this gross.

Oh, wah. I'm getting off your lawn now because your lawn is boring.

Just last week some doctor was in the news for ejaculating on his unconscious patients. People who need medical care are vulnerable and seeking medical care necessitates a certain degree of surrendering your bodily autonomy. It's kind of a heap of insult upon injury, especially when your doctor does little to earn…

I call my car Razor Cola 💀

This makes me think of Mad Max Fury Road, when the War Boys say “fang it!”

I'm not sure they can do anything to punish him that's worse than what he's already been through.

Huh. I am hooked but the first season didn't interest me at all. I'm not as into the true crime aspect I guess.
