This makes sense. I knew I was very high risk for postpartum depression so when I read these studies promoting the benefits of encapsulating the placenta I was all on board. It was pretty disappointing when I still got hit with a very severe case of PPD. So one less thing to blame my body for failing at. Woohoo!

Not all of us “third world” people do that shit.

I am a fucking hippie. I freely acknowledge this undisputed fact. I homebirthed. Loved it. I buried all four of my placentas in the yard and planted a fucking tree on top of them. I breastfed way past my kids being able to have full conversations about how and when they would like to nurse. I coslept. I made my own…

It’s the same place where Paleo calories go.

Yeah, considering the placenta basically gets delivered into a glorified trash bag attached under your bum, there is no way I would put that in my mouth.

As a “Third World” (TM) inhabitant I can tell you, only hippies do that. And I mean middle class hippies.

This is kind of a relief to me- my midwife insisted I take my placenta home and drink it in a smoothie the next day. I took it home, put it in the fridge, and could not bring myself to even look at it.

I have a bunch of friends who are cis women, and I’m friends with quite a few other trans women too. For me personally, unless I’m really emotionally frazzled or having some severe bodily/gender dysphoria on a given day, I find it comforting and meaningful - like ondiac said in their post - to be around other women…

We all did, TEC, we all did. :)

Feeding bears isn’t cute; it’s stupid and dangerous. When bears get complacent around humans, and/or come to view humans as a food source, humans (and bears) often end up dead. Plus, this bear is behind barbed wire, sitting up and performing for food. That’s incredibly sad, and doesn’t make me feel like squee’ing.

Dear idiots: please never, never do this. It’s always super adorable when a grizzly that has been habituated by tourists attacks and kills a local. Sincerely: locals who live, hike, bike and run in grizzly populated areas.

After game press conferences are ridiculous. Riley could have thrown a full on tantrum and it still would have made for better TV. These sports “journalists” need to get over themselves.

Isn’t it interesting that some sports journalist object to having to “deal” with Riley Curry, but they have no problem conducting post-game interviews with perpetrators of domestic violence, animal abusers, accused rapists and murders, not to mention cheating steroid users. Wow, people. Get your priorities straight.

Why do I have a funny feeling the same journos irritated by a child at a press conference have also muttered something about how the Black community needs more positive fatherly role models and has asked a professional female athlete how she balances work and motherhood and where is her kid right now.

Well this is literally my new favorite meme. I LOVE HER. She is so sassy and adorable.

Damn TE— you got in on my Britney thing quicker than I did. You win.

Babies gonna baby.

WELL SAID ALISHA. A+ CURRY FAM

ugh last night at dinner my bf’s older sister was complaining about riley. she said something along the lines of, “ugh who brings their kid to a press conference? don’t do that, that’s stupid.” i was like ughhhh who cares! why take those stupid press conferences super seriously!! it’s not like she was being rude or…

RILEY CURRY MEME AND GIF PARTY!!!!!
