One of my FB friends -a teenager-just liked a picture of a naked woman and man in the shower. The guy has his hand inside her. I thought that was sort of inappropriate for FB.

But as long as we are discussing body parts and not showing them, I'm good with it.

clearly I don't look at the right feeds.

I'm being a motherfucking adult in a T-shirt that says "BITE ME!"

Go you! Also, where do I get one of those shirts?

I am shocked (ok, surprised maybe) that there are people who would give you a hard time. I guess that is probably my privilege talking.

Usually its more subtle than outright hostile, but yeah people suck. I did have one (former) friend tell me outright I should adopt and never get pregnant because I didn't know what it could do to my body.

sj! So excited for you! The PG books already mentioned are the ones I had as well (What To Expect, Happiest Baby on the Block). I also kept a blog (still do, actually) and was part of a group of lesbians who were all pregnant with our first at the same time. So fun! Anyway, EXCITED!

My brain's instinctive response: Was there something in the gay water?

For me, personally, I kind of decided against it. Or, really, life did, by not putting anyone with whom I would like to procreate in my path. In my position, it does not seem like the best choice. But it was never my life's dream, either. Sometimes, it would have been nice, but, I'm 38, it would be a double freakshow now. But I'd never try to decide that for anyone else, especially if it's their burning desire versus my, say, trip to Australia I haven't made yet. (I suspect that my cervix may be incompetent, also. It might never have been possible...both mom and grandma? Not so much with the easy breeding.) But maybe there will be a kid already here who will need me for something someday

Love it. Look at all the Bitches handling their shit!! Fantastic.

Strix, man, if I could get to your birthday, I so would. I wish it were a shorter drive!

sj, woo hoo! Very exciting times, and haters? To the left. No, the far left. Nope, keep going.

OMG YOU GUYS. You know how I made an American Psycho joke about the tenants of the place we're working on? With the investment banking, and the hatchet, and the hunting knife on the counter, and the electronics, and the gun mags? Today I glanced at a piece of mail left out and idly noted that the last name was Bates. Ha ha. Then I looked up on top of the kitchen cabinet and there's an 18" action figure. I squinted, I thought I must be wrong, I looked again - motherfucking Patrick Bateman action figure. Who has one of those?!?!?! I didn't know they even made them. I assume it was a joke gift from a friend.

Zen, could I get a 7 am wake up call tomorrow? Thank you very much.

I was all excited when I saw that the dining hall had vegan mashed potatoes tonight. Then I tasted them and realized they'd been made with vanilla soy milk.

My mom's first attempt at vegan "biscuits and gravy" involved cornbread in lieu of biscuits (not bad in and of itself) -- and faux sausage gravy made with Gimme Lean and *vanilla* soy milk.

SO MUCH WRONG.

You might want to hide Chick tracts around his place.

wait, what's wrong with vanilla soy milk? Isn't vanilla a bean?

Signed, confused omnivore.
