I will say from personal experience that there is a profound psychological impact when a mother cannot produce enough breastmilk and has to supplement with or completely switch to formula.



But that Cambodian breast milk is premo.

Oh shit, I just repped Cav with something meant for someone else entirely and that's probably gonna be one of the strangest reps he's ever received in his boards existence.

Ugh...hate this for you. Happened to me about 10 years ago at work when someone with a big mouth thought they were doing me a favor by letting it slip to me when all it did was make me doubt my worth, etc.

I couldn't use it as leverage without burning the source who gave it to me either. Just a shitty situation all around.
 
i'm way pro-sharing compensation in theory

but in practice I can't shake my upbringing that it's impolite to talk about money an
 
You all tried the breast milk right?

We also had the stocked freezer and my wife just loved going into the little room at work and pumping. We also had a lot of pump and dumps toward the end of the one year periods when my wife started really partaking in the alcohol again.
 
All this talk of breast milk makes me think of Borat's interview of Bob Barr

 
Breastfeeding didn't work for either one of my kids and she really fucking tried. She pumped for a while but there wasn't enough and it's really physically taxing.

Formula was essential to our kids staying alive. I have no issues with anyone using it. I'm glad it exists.

DDD, In the US right now I don't think there is a lot of misinformation about breastfeeding vs formula. It may exist with Nestle's marketing in other countries, but as Timmy said breastfeeding is actively pushed hard by the mommy industrial complex.

I saw the salary of two people in an adjacent organization - both at the same level and similar experience and doing essentially the same job. One was making $50k more than the other. I was astounded. And, as an outside observer, I would have rated the one making less as better at the job...

Good question. I wouldn't consider it a hymn so much as a southern gospel or Appalachian song. Same with I'll Fly Away.

Regardless, both are great songs.
 
So here in Denver it's going to be 88 degrees today and we're under a winter weather watch tomorrow with 3-10" of snow expected in the metro area. What. The. Fuck.
 
there was a dude at the church I grew up in that had a hymn in the baptist hymnal

he was a child molester (one of two known at my church) and was pushed out of the congregation

wonder if the hymn is still in there

There are quite a few hymns that are totally reasonable sounding whose meaning would greatly change given the context of your second sentence. Lot of “sweet baby Jesus love” etc in the Christmas season hymns.

on the list of "things I know are supposedly bad but how bad is it really?" is re-using a bottled water bottle

like, I don't even know what BPA is and why isn't it such a big deal until I try to reuse the bottle?

Don't let it sit in the sun! That's when I hear the BPA leeches out

Finally, the origin story we have been waiting for. “How Mako’s mom broke bad.”
