That was an absolutely fascinating rabbit whole. Thank you so much for explaining!!!

Thank you. I can't find the words to express how much I admire you for doing the work you do despite the hate. I'm sorry we live in a world where the work you do inspires such vile sentiment, but I'm grateful for people like you making the world less horrible.

My husband is a stay-at-home, homeschooling dad with LOTS of parenting experience, thanks to fostering for over 10 years and having six permanent kids between the ages of 11 and 31. We call it momsplaining when some other homeschool mom with only 1-2 kids tries to tell him how to parent our infant foster son.

ducks don't belong in weedwhackers, burlap isn't a typical material for power tools

almost made me laugh loud enough to wake the baby!

Where the hell did the "L" come from?????

Circumcision is still done to over 50% of the boys born in the US.

Thank you for making space in meetings. Thank you for all of it, but especially that.

It's difficult to have faith in your own voice when it's consistently drowned out - especially in those subtle ways it happens in meetings.

Early in my career, I worked with a man who would consistently refer back to a woman who had been interrupted. He always made it seem organic and I don't think most of the men even realized it was happening. But the women noticed the pattern. I know I'm not the only woman who learned to be more comfortable advocating for myself, thanks to him.

Beautiful! I love how the lipstick sets off the pink in the frames without being matchy-matchy!!

Where did you go?

The first time he loses his temper and screams how stupid you are is shocking. And then he apologizes and love-bombs and you write it off as a one-time bad day, confident it won't happen again. The next time when he screams how useless you are, the love bomb and apology are accompanied with a perfectly calm and logical (and apologetic) explanation of how you made him lose his cool and if you just wouldn't X, he wouldn't get so mad..... Eventually when he screams and calls you names, you are the one apologizing and begging forgiveness.....

By the time he actually hits you, you are already convinced that you are the problem and if you just wouldn't make him so mad, he wouldn't lose his cool - and you're so worthless and useless and bad at life that you are lucky he wants you at all and no one else would even give you the time a day......

Probably Etsy.

Greek vinaigrette woke Hmmm, maybe not?

Wake, pray, transfer, I think. The day they transfer the "embryo" into the uterus is a big, hopeful day.

Except that was the first person they laid off.

I'm not sure why you're expending so much energy arguing about some stupid internet superstition. Let the people have hope!

My question also.
