Yeah, I agree on the eating for example versus smoking for sure. Unfortunately her situation is less than ideal (bad partner—he has four other kids, different mothers, and I met him a few weeks ago—a total, unapologetic misogynistic who believes women exist to cook and clean for him) and I think maybe the pot is…

Lololol @ Freeophile. Thank you for your support in this trying time. :)

It wasn't uncommon in the past, but (at least in France) it directly contributed to high infant mortality as well as child deaths (often from lack of nutrition—milk cut with additives, for example—or from poor care from inexperienced wet nurses).

Can I be freed?! I'll take a "eh she's okay but not quite favorite but better than trolls" status.

Well, if the Daily Mail reported it, it has to be true! ;)

From what I recall, she said that she was advised that since not smoking anymore would be too stressful for her and thus the fetus, it would be best to continue smoking. She's not a huge stoner, but yeah, we're talking a joint or two a day. As I said in another comment, my friend is really opinionated, so I declined…

That is adorable. This is all I've got:

I don't know—my friend had a birth at a birthing center and by all accounts had great care, but I've been and am really suspicious of the MJ use. She's very, very opinionated though, so I declined to say anything for fear of unleashing her wrath...hope the little guy doesn't experience any negative effects from her…

A friend of mine smoked daily throughout her pregnancy and is smoking daily now that she's breastfeeding. I'm not sure I think it's the best choice, but she claims that her midwife told her it was okay. :-\

I totally agree—and unabashedly love it. I need to rewatch, because despite the bad CGI and silly monsters that feature, it's a wonderful show. The ending?! Such a good interpretation of the lore.

And I'm sure it's cold and lonely down there in Ma's basement. It's all relative, Dwayne.

A personal "source" of mine told me that Jennifer Lawrence is straight up dating Chris Martin. Can anyone confirm? Or explain to me WTF this is happening? I can only imagine that Lawrence makes Martin sing all of "Parachutes" to her and forgets he's washed up/a father...'cos otherwise, what?

Lol, k.

Merlin is the only Medieval fiction anyone needs.

To be fair, the books are nowhere near as misogynistic as the show is. But agreed, it's a fantasy—it's not medieval.

Nope, sorry, a show taking place during the 16th century (aka the Renaissance) has nothing to do with the Middle Ages, generous or not generous!

This.

I mean, yeah, I guess, though I still don't think that justifies this terrible song and it's even worse message (her booty is all that matters? Those without booties need not apply? The terrible affected voice she's singing in?). I find her shtick really insincere and another example of disingenuous marketing. YMMV.
