But wouldn’t you rather they had left the previous version alone as its own thing, and continued to make it, so you didn’t have to choose between two other options, neither of which is the original one you actually want?

This has been part of the Republican playbook since Lee Atwater, and Trump’s specifically, since forever — accuse your opponent of that which you’re guilty of.

Considering the Senate has CONFIRMED Judges on the federal bench for saying much worse about Obama or the Clintons, I think this is a massive overreaction and another example of the right wing media “gaming the ref”.

Fuck. You.

I can’t be the only one who’s hoping that the army of milkshake protesters that went after Nigel Farage will attack Trump or at least his motorcade, right...?

This just reinforces the belief, amongst themselves and the most deranged of their followers, that they’re the Royal Family of the United States.

Judges shouldn’t conduct themselves in an undignified manner? Kavanaugh was a raving lunatic during his confirmation and still got confirmed. What Judge Kwan said was not only mild in comparison, but it was all true. 

I gave up on Charmin (which used to be the best, by far), when they decided to come out with “too soft” and “too stiff” versions of their toilet paper that had been perfect for decades, marketing the old middle version as “Charmin Basic”.

Not Utah, but a judge can get confirmed doing something like that

But don’t worry[,] there is a tax cut for the wealthy so if you make over $500,000 you’re getting a tax cut.

Uh, it’s toilet paper made with 100% recycled paper. Toilet paper isn’t recyclable.

Is it soft and thick like charmin? What's the ply situation here? 

Why not just buy bulk sandpaper and be done with it?

My advice to you (and you’ll get a lot of advice these next 9 months) is to trust your gut and find an OB you trust. Or if you’re low risk consider a certified midwife. If you get a red flag from them at any point in your pregnancy, find another practitioner! I had so many red flags that I ignored out of convenience…

I had a medically necessary episiotomy (baby A wasn’t progressing after hours of pushing, and was showing signs of starting to inhale, baby B’s heart rate was dropping, I wasn’t tearing naturally, doctor became concerned for both babies, and I narrowly avoided an emergency C-section). I honestly dont know how many…

My birth was on the traumatic side, BUT I always remind myself that women have been doing this for millions of years. And when the baby came, and shit got tough, I reminded myself that she won’t be doing whatever she’s doing currently at 16. None of my friends with kids really shared their experiences with me before I…

I chose my doctor because he’s in his late 30s and studied very recently, and he did residency at the same hospital my father in law was a PA at. He didn’t do episiotomies and would only perform a c section if I agreed or I or the baby was in medical distress. In the end, he was only present for the last 15 minutes…

I’m just 7 weeks prego and already fucking terrified. I have my first OB next week and you can bet my ass this conversation is coming up.

That reaction to cute things, especially babies, is actually really common! It’s a bona fide scientific phenomenon; here’s some info if you’re curious^.^

Those eyes though...
