Oh, man. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I guess. I HATE Taylor Swift’s face, her mouth in particular.

I think of the criticism of non-intersectional feminism, that it’s just white supremacy. And I’d make a parallel argument about Hef’s “civil rights activism”: if your activism isn’t intersectional—if when you’re considering the human rights of African-Americans, for instance, you don’t consider female

My BIL had the following strategy for winning Worst Cooks in America: “wait, couldn’t you just take a shit on a plate and it’s like ‘tada, gimme my money’?” I think of it and laugh every time the show is mentioned.

I don’t remember exactly what procedures she used for Saint, but she did have repro assistance. I conceived my son through IUI and I’m familiar with the difference between timed intercourse and assistance. She’s said she struggled with infertility; I’ll take her word for it.

She also struggled with infertility. There were several episodes where she visited her fertility doc, had to have sex at an appointed time (I think I remember once at a photo shoot?), had to get a particular flight to get to an HCG monitoring visit, etc.

Um, as many as her personal feelings deem? Is there some kind of judicial standard for how many kids should make a person satisfied?

She’s pregnant by Travis Scott, not Tyga (who is her niece’s half-brother’s dad). Ok, I’m gonna go die now because I know that.

No one tell The Beatles. Or Coldplay. Or Elton John. Or...

Also, the Fat Jew isn’t even his moniker—it’s the Fat Jewish. (Still a plagiarist.)

I totally disagree. If *Wendy* had said “I work hard on my body. As a woman in my 50s, my metabolism has really slowed, and being thin is important to me, so I’m proud of how it looks,” I would say, “it sounds like Wendy really likes her body. Good for her.” But in no way do I think a (supposed) decrease in body

Absolutely. And still entitled to have her body belong to her and not be policed by anyone.

Coming here to say the same thing. You know what makes a body good, acceptable, etc.? Its owner thinking it’s those things. Age, gender, and anything else have no place in the conversation.

I must be missing something. I read that Hillary excerpt 4 times and as best I can understand, the big to-do is she suggested she could help a reporter get Hamilton tickets. I’m not saying that’s not bad, I’m just saying...is that the unethical thing?

I’d rather not speak to strangers either, especially rude ones. But my son is a dream baby when he gets out of the house once per day for fresh air and a long walk and an angry skunk when he doesn’t. I might try your technique.

Thank you. ♥️

Please hang around me for one day. I have a 7-week-old, born via c-section. Literal STRANGERS on the street will ask “Was it a c-section? Or natural?” Well, person-I-don’t-know-from-Adam, I’m delighted to learn that I gave birth to my son “unnaturally.” Much obliged for that tidbit. The term you’re looking for is

No worries! The pooping discussion needs to happen—silly or not. Because it is no joke post partum. And the mesh panties, man. Those alone will be a chapter in my memoirs. Actually, my very sweet nurse literally sent me home with a stack of them that I haven’t used. Maybe I’ll make an art installation out of them.

Thanks very much. I actually try to talk about it a lot because (1) it helps me process and (2) I’m constantly hearing from others who suffered silently and felt comforted when they realized it was ok to talk about. With the pain of the loss itself, feeling isolated and ashamed is just so much more than anyone should

Thank you.

Thank you. We’re all hanging in.
