The number of people who I see REMOVING THEIR MASK TO SNEEZE...

Okay, but can we talk about how so many sets these days come with 3/4 teaspoon instead of 1/2 tablespoon? It’s so annoying. I can easily measure 3/4 of a teaspoon using the 1/2 and 1/4, and I rarely need 3/4 of a teaspoon, but I use 1/2 tablespoon way more often. So far, all the narrow spoons I’ve seen don’t have 1/2

Hate watching is still watching. 

My mom told me that if I was too embarrassed to buy condoms, then I wasn’t mature enough to be having sex. It was actually pretty effective. 

There’s usually a person or department who’s whole job is collection development. They pick what books the library needs. My library doesn’t even accept donations- the volunteer Friends group takes them to sort- they decide what can be resold in the used book store, what can be given away at events, and what gets

“People who get people pregnant”?

I see many comments where people suggest that men are obligated to get vasectomies for a variety of reasons- so yes, it absolutely needs to be said that vasectomies need to be voluntary. Reproductive coercion is never okay, and I’ve gotten flamed on the internet for taking that stand a few times.

“Birth control should always be an option available to pregnant people”

As soon as the third attending hopped in the car, I knew it was gonna have a bad outcome. 

What’s been wild is there have been several shark jumping moments, with ghost sex way up there, but each time they’ve managed to turn it around and keep on going.

Look, they cannot end this show until the mystery VIPatient is actually Bono. 

Wilson is doing a lot of appearances on the spinoff, Station 19. It won't be hard for her to slide over to that one full time once Grey's ends. 

I think that she meant in addition to her talking to North, she thought it might sink in better if Mason also shared his experience. It’s not weird to ask an older kid to set an example and share things since a kid is more likely to listen to their cousin than their mom. 

This is why I do not do commission work, or sell anything I make. I knit for myself, and if I choose to take on a gift project, it’s because I want to knit the thing. There’s this woman who keeps seeing my shawl at work and asking if I’d sell it or make another one to sell, and that’s a hard no. I wish she’d stop

Yes, but see, companies want vaccinated employees because it's better for the bottom line and the OSHA mandate is a convenient scapegoat. The average person doesn't know it's being litigated, they just blame Biden instead of their boss, which is exactly how the bosses want it. 

Oh, yes, I hate when people do the “oh poor dear” thing for me or for my kid. Yup, the thing sometimes sucks, but we are living our lives and he’s okay.

I am so sorry your parents behaved like that. Thank you for sharing this perspective. I hope we don’t make our son feel this way, and I do try to be very aware of my language around him. 

Yup. Thank you for perfectly articulating WHY everyone bringing the son into it felt so awful. Pratt didn’t say anything about his son, he used a damn cliche. 

Oh, the son will see it. And I just want to point out that Pratt may be a dick, but he wasn’t the one who turned this into a story about their son. 

I honestly think it might have been even more benign than that. I think he forgot his son wasn’t “healthy”.
