@Coach_Melendez@TheAverageP609 Right? I wasn't around (as an adult) in the 80s, but what a wonderful turn from the literal death sentence hiv+ used to be. It's absolutely heartwarming.
@Cally__Cat@terrycrews Cally, he's not a life coach. He's talking about what he found to be important in his own life, and what he wants to pass on to his kids. Based on his experience, that means a positive, emotionally present male figure, alongside a mother figure which he isn't.
It's not a fight.
@TheBestBaloon @CalderRobinson That's the part of the antivax argument that gets me: our grandparents didn't have vaccines, and we're all here!!
Well, my grandparents would be happy if every 1/4 kids reached adulthood, and I don't like those odds!!
a story - in 1979 my mom's best friend's 8-month-old fetus died in utero. She was told she would have to wait until she was ready to deliver to remove the dead fetus from her womb. It was only after two weeks of making her wait, when she almost died, that they finally induced. 1/
@borithan@mellowist @ItsDanSheehan - it's a ghost?

People managed to hear, "lesbian couples are less-than and shouldn't raise kids also I hate puppies and sunshine."
@RevBobMIB @YasmineGalenorn @ChuckWendig But less powerful than the prepenultimate, which will steal the accent whenever it can.
(Sorry. I get *so few* opportunities to whip out Smythe humor on Greek grammar.)
@magic_mattyc@rickygervais 1. We only shave in bubble baths and then immediately go shopping in sundresses. Can't stomp on someone's head with a sandal in soft morning light, duh.
2. We already pay a tax on our razors, we've suffered enough.
@PolitikMasFina I'm 9 weeks pregnant. I'm *dying* to launch a #carryittoterm campaign. Find me 1 Republican senator willing to take hcg till it makes him nauseous, and then match me vomit for vomit, for missed work days, etc. Then of course get sliced&sewn balls to anus. Then talk abt pro-life.
