I just had to endure reading a FB post populated 90% by male game developers, and started by one of the more "famous" ones, arguing about whether women who don't BF till age 1 FAIL AS PARENTS (caps not added for emphasis).
I am so stabby right now I don't even know how, where, and whom to stab.
Please hold me.
(FTR my actual IRL game developer friends who are also fathers were arguing with him that he was stupid and wrong -- thank god)
Well of course if you have the disposable income and flexibility of a high-profile dev career (and a dick) it seems like BFing is easy, especially when you're getting your nips chewed to rubber by a toddler.
I wonder how many mothers working the night shift at Burger King after her 2 other jobs he knows.
She insists she's BFing until the baby is 2, longer if the baby wants it.
She's a "super crunchy, non-vax, give birth in my bathtub, "The Business of Being Born" is my favorite movie on Netflix, breastfeed until my tits fall off and/or my kid is in college" type.
And I'm also starting to think she enjoys being a smug bitch about how she's the best mother on the fucking planet, even while her bun is still baking.

I would just like to point out that my kid passed the "stranger test" with flying colors at the library (lawww-bweeee) this afternoon. I didn't put him up to the test, but he wandered into it on his own.
My weaned-at-10-months, slept-in-his-own-room-from-2-months, CIO, daycare kid.
Fuss, BabyDubs has those shoes. I love them. They go with his seersucker shorts and navy blue polo with anchors on it. Yep, I dress my son like we own a yacht on occasion. What of it?
I almost had a use for this non-vax bitch once. She was going to give me a can of free formula that her OB gave her at the first appointment. (Tangent: why can't I ever get the dr. that gives out free formula?) She said something along the lines of "I'll NEVAAAAARRRRR feedy baby this POISON. Zomg can't believe they even gaaaaaave it to me!!!!!1!eleventy!!!"
So I said, "I'll take it off your hands." But then we got to make the big whole milk switch and fuck formula.
