Stories like this make me hope and pray that any offspring has my frame. Cause I was barely six and a half pounds at a week overdue, and I’m still a tiny lady. But my hubby is 6'5, and his little sister was over 10lbs at birth. Any baby with his size genes might kill me.

I couldn’t agree with you more, and I really think all the people trying to defend so called “good” breeders by saying all the puppies have homes lined up have not spent much or any time at all with animal rescue. My dog is a pure Australian Heeler, and I’m sure her litter was concieved on purpose. Suprise though,…

Hey now. For those of us with a skin tone one shade away from being undead, dark brown is our new black.

Now, orange on the other hand.....

To all the parents insistant that this was unavoidable because little kids are quick: I believe you. That’s why I propose the oh so simple solution of banning kids under the age of 8 from entering zoos. You don’t get to see endangered animals if you’re adamant that you can’t keep an eye on your offspring. Animals get…

Yay! I just wish my Dad was around to see how it ends. He lived in the Soviet Union for about 6 months in the 1960's, and he loved this show. (I also wish I had asked him more questions about his time there. The only thing I really remember him saying was that he was the only one who gained weight over there, since he…

According to the CDC, you’re *likely* to be protected from future infections once you’ve had the virus. Out of all the research still to be done, I would really really like for this to be confirmed, and for a way to test for antibodies in the system. I was trying to get pregnant- we’ve decided to wait to try again til…

Assholes like this make me happy to work for a company that has followed Target’s lead and does not give two shits as to who shits where.

It’s talked about to a point, but people are not very good at dealing with influential, successful, and historic figureheads having crappy moral characters. Thomas Jefferson owned and raped human beings, but still somehow managed to write an extraordinary document exemplifying freedom above all else. Gandhi was a huge…

I’m happy to report that a year later, my mother is doing much better. She still gets bouts of depression, and definitely still has a problem with using alcohol to deal with it, but progress has been made. She’s even taking her first solo vacation since grad school next month! Distance is still required in our…

There is a God!/Dreams do come true!
Take your pick based on your own leaning because HELL YES BOUT TIME.

Oh, I never meant that big breasts were automatically beautiful- just that a lot of people thought that way. I hated mine- they were saggy, and the nips pointed down, even when I was freaking 16 years old. Funnily enough, I ended up marrying my first boyfriend, and he’s the only guy to see both versions. He loves ‘em…

Good for you! I’m actually tying to concieve right now, and I’m crossing my fingers that the doctor was correct when she said I’d still be able to breastfeed. Those puppies better go back down in size though, I am NOT going to carry “Helga” and “Olga” around again!

Right!? The happiness I feel at my own body now is more than enough vindication against all the nay-sayers of yesterday.

Yeah, I was around a DD, but made worse by the fact that I’m just barely 5'0. They took a pound off of each side and damn, could I feel the difference. My back and really my shoulders (even wide straps left deep marks) thanked me for it.

It’s been 13 years now, and I still consider that surgery the best decision I ever…

Oh fuck this woman. Breast reduction is fucking surgery, it’s not easy or fun, and no one does it lightly. And 18 is a perfectly acceptable age to do it, it’s when I had mine and because of my youth, my recovery was incredibly quick.

As someone who has had this surgery, I’d also like to note that society doesn’t give…

I am so happy about this. I live in Virginia, and my next door neighbor committed a felony way back when (I don’t even like using the word “felon”; it sounds like someone who’s still guilty) and couldn’t vote in the primary. We are one month apart in age, and were raised on such opposite ends of the spectrum that…

Honest question: how do those of us that truly believe that life begins at birth talk about pregnancy in a way that doesn’t seem insensitive? Like, in a personal conversation with someone grieving the loss of a pregnancy we’d never be like “it’s just a clump of cells!”, but when discussing abortion in an online forum,…

According to the Daily Mail article linked, she had two sons by the composer Stokowski, Stan and Christopher. Christopher is the one estranged......for some really weird, vague reasons. Apparently he was engaged, his mother’s shrink got involved and....said something mean. The fiancee broke it off, he was heartbroken,…

Hope they have a small kids display to keep the little ones entertained while Mom is off intently reading in the corner. I work in a bookstore, this regularly happens, haha.

I would wear it, but I also have an extremely petite frame and a super girly look. Plus that shade is pretty flattering on redheads.
