Sure, but that’s not the case with the vast majority of women who use formula. Nestle doesn’t market this stuff as a product for women who can’t breastfeed, they market it as something superior to breast milk in general.

Baby milk controversy

I have some women coworkers and a couple of years ago they were sitting in the break room lamenting how hard it was to find formula. I naively asked them why they didn’t breastfeed and they looked at me like I’d grown an extra head. It’s absolutely astonishing that after 200 million years of successful breastfeeding (which even gives us our “mammal” name), a corporation was able to convince women that no, they should be feeding their babies with shit from a can made in factory.

That monkey isn’t even wearing a summer dress.

The ICE agent’s comin’, the sun’s zoomin’ in
Meltdown expected, the wheat is growin’ thin
Engines stop runnin’, but I have no fear
'Cause ‘Murica’s drownin’ and I … I live by the river

Ok, I have some fear.

I’ll try that. Fuck you.

pestilence, genocide, fratricide, infanticide, racism, sexism, and slavery

Which one of those categories is “sending out your daughters to be raped by the crowd” in?

I think that was on the tablet Moses dropped.

I’m the product in the sense that poo is the product of the intestines.

I had to move to a Mac because of iOS development. Now I’m stuck with a Mac because the fucking thing refuses to break.

“This fucking paycheck! What am I going to do with all this money?”

I majored in Anthropology in college. I should have done Misanthropology.

ridiculous waiting times, lack of facilities etc.

This is a big part of the GOP’s strategy for maintaining power in a “democracy” despite not having the support of anywhere near a majority of the general public. Wherever possible, they ensure that voting in Democratic areas is as difficult as they can make it. In some places they’ve even made it illegal just to hand out water to people waiting in line to vote.

Remember to take your antibiotics to the end of the course, people.

I briefly went to a therapist 30 years ago. Like many people who go, I was worried that they wouldn’t think I was actually depressed and wouldn’t give me anything or do anything for me. I needn’t have worried, as the guy hadn’t listened to me for more than two minutes before he said “we need to get you on Prozac.” He had me meet with their staff psychiatrist who turned out to be a 70-year-old Cuban. This guy just rambled for an hour without ever asking me any questions; at one point he actually said “back in Cuba, we had a lot of problems with the blacks - you call them n*****s here” which was pretty eye-opening (keep in mind this was a counseling service run by the state university I was attending at the time - and this was the 1990s, not the Jim Crow era). After I got my prescription I mentioned this comment to the therapist and he just rolled his eyes. It was obvious that they kept this guy around for his ability to prescribe drugs and for no other reason.

Or as Andrew Carnegie showed, be somewhat less of a piece of shit just before you die.
