"But no one’s even dreaming of a day when 'women' would be the default," @aubreyhirsch.bsky.social says. "Which is why one of my favorite acts of resistance is to say... 'Oh, I'm sorry, you're talking about men's soccer?'"

My 11 year old spent a solid decade as the youngest before I had my third kid, and now complains loudly about being a middle child. As someone whose sisters are 15 months older and 18 months younger than I am, I feel strongly that this is stolen middle child valor!

I wrote about the history, politics, and persistence of giving babies their fathers' last names. And in doing this research, I've concluded that all last names are bad actually!

Guys, Lindsay Graham won’t see your mean tweets, but your friends who are sniveling, war-hungry, hate-filled, ass-kissing fear mongers with all the empathy of an empty leg warmer will.

The bad news is that republicans are going to weekend-at-Bernie’s Mitch McConnell til August 3rd to avoid a special election. The good news is that this means Mitch will die on my actual birthday, thus fulfilling the prophecy from one of my favorite tweets. 🎂

This is a friendly reminder that any time you enter a doctor's office, ER, or urgent care, the "consent to treat" form you sign without reading permits them to test your blood or urine for pregnancy without your knowledge. If you do not want to be tested for pregnancy, you have to tell them up front

I live in constant fear that someone will write a takedown accusing me of generating all my art with AI and include a bunch of examples like "this isn't how knees work!" and I'll have to be like, "I don't use AI, I'm just not very good at drawing still!" and it will be very embarassing for all of us

Friends, this is a long shot, but my childhood best friend is looking for her brother. His name is Joey Robertson. He is 46 years old. He was last seen 8 weeks ago in Cleveland Heights OH. He has ties to rehab centers in Warren OH If you have any friends in those areas, would you share this photo?
