🎤 | Goo Goo Dolls' John Rzeznik Recalls the big thing that stood out to him about Taylor Swift when they performed together at the Speak Now tour in 2011:
"What impressed me, because at the time she was still very young, and I expected a bunch of handlers to come and deal with me because I was a guest, but she did, just remember thinking, This woman's got her s--- together!' "
Women’s hormones drop 1000x in just 72 h after birth. It’s a literal hormonal shock. It’s the sharpest hormonal crash a body can survive. Estrogen crashes from peak pregnancy levels to near zero. Progesterone plummets over 1000%. The endocrine system rewrites itself to stop pregnancy and start lactation. All while her organs shift back, her uterus contracts, and she bleeds for weeks. All that while taking care of a newborn 24/7. God forbid she doesn’t feel like herself or is moody.
For thousands of years, babies slept with their mothers. When they cried, they were attended to. Then two men came along: Dr. Holt and John B. Watson. They said babies should be trained. That babies had to fit the assembly line schedules of their parents. "Newborns must cry to expand their lungs," they claimed. "Simply let them cry it out." And that's how the "cry it out" sleep training method was born. Watson treated babies like experiments. "Never hug or kiss your child," he wrote. "Shake hands with them in the morning." After all, mothers needed rest, to attend to their husbands and households. Watson had four children. Three attempted suicide. One succeeded. And we still follow it today. Because once you convince a mother to ignore her baby's cries, you've broken something primal.

I once dated someone I loved more than he loved me.
I realized it during a conversation about our goals, when he said I might need to give up mine for our family to work.
I thought about it. I even considered it.
And that’s when it hit me: when a woman loves a man more than he loves her, she’s willing to give up everything for him on the altar of love.
But when a man truly loves a woman more than she loves him, he would never ask her to give up everything; he meets her halfway.
I broke up with him the next month.
