What I recall about the childbirth classes I attended (pregnant friend's husband threw his back out, so I went to help with the hauling-the-pregnant-lady-up part) was the placenta. For some reason, I actually gave it a thought for probably the first time ever, and I really shouldn't have done that. It now freaks me out.
Bar maid! Bring me stronger ale! And some plump, succulent babies to eat!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
(Yes, my first thought was "Penises?")
Me too. I guess there could be other stuff, but penises, yup, in common.
They had plastinated placenta at the Bodyworks exhibit (I've since learnt that 4 other kravvers were at it either on the same day as Burrell and I, or the day before). They're much bigger than I was thinking. Thick.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, what's the answer?
Can we write letters of support for sara's award??

Suddenly I feel the urge to write letters of support for penises (both gay and straight men should continue to have them (in quantities desired), I feel). But I can't get that mixed up with the "sara is awardalicious" ones.

Yeah, my second thought was, "pretty much anything not pertaining to which gender they're attracted to," but penises was the first place I went. Apparently the specific thing to which they're referring is unrealistic body image. Still. Oy.

What is even happening?

Me too. I guess there could be other stuff, but penises, yup, in common.Was also my thought, so I did not click the link. Did they also both have torsos and stuff in common. What was the point of the article, Emily?

Good call.
But I can't get that mixed up with the "sara is awardalicious" ones.
Better call.

Me too, but I watched the Billy Connolly episode of The Daily Show last night, and Jon was talking about wrapping one around his neck.
