@1111aether very true... one drag always leads to another
about 10 months ago from web-

@1111aether Yes, I liked that bit particularly.
-
@laurelrusswurm women need to get to name weapons, so they can refer to the Vagina gun in manuals as a vaginal discharge ;)
-
@thistleweb Hmmm... maybe its time to start roughing out a science fiction novel...
-
Can't unread context!!!
-
It's bad enough I have a cough and the corner market shelved cough drops and tampons together, now I read this.
-
@zoowar Um. It isn't as though tampons have graphic illustrations on the packaging. Aliens would never figure it out, f'rinstance.
-
@zoowar twenty years ago a mom was breastfeeding her baby *under a blanket* in a park when some offended yo-yo threw a milkshake at her.
-
@zoowar Women are people too; our bodily functions aren't any more disgusting than yours. Does seeing toilet paper offend you too?

Sad to hear. There isn't enough breast feeding in the world. I'll bet there are more breast implants than breast feeders.
-
@zoowar Yes, and the worst is that it seems to be getting worse. How many babies get fed in public washrooms? #notmine #disgusting
-
@zoowar and not only is breastfeeding better for babies, it protects Moms from breast cancer.
-
@1111aether I learned it 20 years ago from LaLeche League; don't have specific source, but most breastfeeding facts have been discovered...
-
@1111aether ... by formula companies futile attempts to prove their expensive product is as good as breastfeeding. #BreastIsBest
-
@1111aether The more a woman breastfeeds (which is the purpose of breasts, after all) the less likely she will get cancer.
-
@1111aether Breastfeeding prevents Breast Cancer specifically; I doubt it helps with any other kinds.
-
@laurelrusswurm Also, in many poor countries, water is contaminated. Formula == infant deaths. Healthier to filter through mother.
-
@lnxwalt280 Breastmilk is amazing; it protects babies with antibodies tailored by mom's body, it's thicker in winter, thinner in summer...
-
@lnxwalt280 ... it's there when it's needed an there is always enough... unless its sabotaged. When breastfeeding stops, the supply closes
-
@lnxwalt280 The pediatrician I took my baby to kept gave me breastfeeding videos from the formula company ~ with formula samples included.
-
@laurelrusswurm It's when i always do
-
@lnxwalt280 The most heinous deed I read was Nestlé dressing sales people like nurses to push formula samples to illiterate 3rd world moms…
-
@x11r5 Or are you saying that #TinCanMama breastfeeds #TinCanJr?
-
@lnxwalt280 Using formula reduces demand and the mother's supply dries up. Then the family has to buy formula, even if it uses whole budget
-
No, you stupid bot. 11/5 = 2, remainder 1.
-
@laurelrusswurm It is immoral moves like this that are so aggravating. Corps legally required to be amoral in pursuit of profits.
-
@1111aether That I don't know. I'd check with #LaLecheLeague
-
@lnxwalt280 which is, of course, why corporations should not be "persons" ... we lack prisons to hold them
-
@1111aether no worries... I too, used to smoke 50 million cigs ... when you're ready you'll quit :)
-
@1111aether I liked the patch BTW
-
@1111aether I doubt I would have been able to quit w/o the patch; half way I had an allergic reaction, so I won't be able to use it again
-
@1111aether now its near 5 years and I know if I were ever light up again I doubt I would be able to quit again, so I don't dare
