An equivalence that does not bear out for baby formula.

Whoever wants to feed their baby breast milk or formula, do what you want. There’s enough anxiety in raising a child, we should be aware of when we might be increasing it in others for no good reason. GP could’ve supplemented their baby’s diet with formula while his wife was gone and everyone would’ve been fine.

Yes we absolutely should encourage bonding and normalize public breastfeeding. But cut out the other breastfeeding nonsense.

The evidence is not at all overwhelming, and flies in the face of a couple of generations of formula fed people who turned out fine.

All anyone does by repeating that line is make people feel bad when they can’t or don’t want to breastfeed. Especially women.

Imagine what my conversationally advanced 4 year old would be capable of if only I didn’t use that darn noise machine all the time!

Idiocracy?

What is inherently valuable about any one of those examples?

This probably explains the TurboTax ad I saw on YouTube today where the only word spoken was “free,” over and over again.

A Silicon Valley company in what way? Its inflated valuation? HQ is in NYC and they don’t have a real tech offering.

Neither the sentiment nor the difficulty of the problem matters. Big A gets a cut of a sale whether or not the reviews or products are genuine so they won’t do more than the bare minimum to deal with it, until their tide starts to change.

Go on…

I write, eat, hold a pool cue, golf club, and rifle left-handed but play guitar and hockey right-handed (among other things). Most of my life, my vocabulary defined either “left-handed” or “right-handed” people, where I’d consider you and I left-handed but with right-handed adaptations. (“A lefty living in a right-handed world”) But maybe “mixed handed” is a more accurate term.
