Heh, honestly I’ve already done that so much that the only pro-birthers left on my list are family. The rest have long since defriended me.

I’ve already decided to take a social media break if it goes badly. I’d either be angrily ranting and raving, or starting some serious FB feuds with anyone who disagrees.

Just what I need to hear a month to the day from turning 32. :-/

I work retail in a large shopping center right outside of DC, and I totally have several hidey holes/ escape routes already planned in the event of a live shooter. It’s sad, but I’ve been slightly on edge and anxious for a while now.

Off to work! :-/

I’m in the same situation as you, and we’ve decided to wait until fall officially arrives (Sept. 20th, or there about) to really start trying. Our logic is that is hasn’t spread as far north as we are *yet*, and it seems to be a one and done type virus- once you’ve had it, you have future immunity. So we’re wearing…

This whole shitshow makes me sick to my stomach, and has shades of the PP shooting all over the place. Conservatives are soooo sad, but not enough to own up to how they’ve been treating gay folks for decades, or how their violent rhetoric around abortion rights contributed to that shooting. Nothing will change,…

People who don’t understand the Southern Strategy and the result it had of effectively switching the demographics of the two political parties are in my top five pet peeves. Right next to people who drive in the left lane without passing, and those who don’t leash their dogs.

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.
