I'm ovulating so this is the worst thing to ever happen to me

So pregnancy isn't a disability, yet we're required to apply for short term disability insurance in order to get paid during maternity leave? This really makes sense, America.

Come on, USA, it's about time you earned the term first world country and implemented several weeks of maternity leave before and at least half a year after someone gives birth. Paid maternity leave, of course. It might even help with abortion rates, because people are more inclined to have a baby, when they know they…

You go, Peggy Young! But I'm side-eyeing the name "Triniti" pretty hard.

I don't understand the appeal of Harry Styles AT ALL. But maybe it's just me. I also never got the appeal of Mick Jagger or Steven Tyler, and I don't just mean decrepit Jagger, I mean 1960s Jagger. They all have a similar icky not hot factor.

I feel kinda bad for Jesus for having to hear her go on about it for hours.

Because the NYT has a hard time understanding women as complex human beings with multiple interests.

The horror! Next week: Childless people who've ALREADY PICKED OUT NAMES FOR THEIR UNBORN!!!

It's possible to love someone deeply, and yet not want to put up with their (most likely unchanging, if addiction related) bullshit for all eternity.

helping turn him into an actual fucking human being

So, this is pretty trivial compared to some of the other posts this evening, but hey, it's Saturday night. It is sooo frustrating to be stuck in the greys when so many obvious troll posts are immediately in the black. Now I know that I may not always add anything of true value to the topic at hand but damn, at least…

I don't even want to be with this dude, I just feel sort of... used?

Nooooooo.... shhhhhh baby. Have some Newman. Take a load off.

My husband is at a football game right now, and I was thinking about decorating while he's out. He thinks we need to wait until the day after Thanksgiving to decorate, but it's not like he's going to undecorate the house if the decorations automagically appear while he's out.

I was going to write a sad post about how much of my life is a fail whale but I've eaten entirely too much Chinese food to do so.

I'm going to nominate the addition of Bukowski to that list.

My boyfriend is a libertarian who thinks Ayn Rand had some nifty ideas. I am a far left progressive liberal who hates Ayn Rand with a deep, deep passion. He likes to send me articles about Rand's outspoken support of abortion rights. I like to apply her philosophies to all areas of his life. For example, he rescued a…

I went on a date that I kneeeeew was going to be bad (I was 19 and didn't have the fortitude to tell people to fuck off that I have now.) Sure enough, this guy told me about his theory that every baby should be paternity tested at birth so no man accidentally supported a kid that wasn't his. What kind of 19 year old…
