When I was 12 my dad figured it was time to have the sex talk. He took my older brother and me out on the boat. We went around the river for a while and then my dad killed the engine in a secluded part of the coast. I don’t recall everything he said but from what I remember he said something like this:
Him: If you could get free milk whenever you wanted it, why would you buy a cow?
Me: …
Him: It wouldn’t really make sense, right?
Me: I guess not.
Him: Don’t drink milk from a bunch of different cows. Because if someone’s giving you free milk, they probably gave it to a lot of people before you, and it’s important to have your own cow.
Me: What about steaks?
Him: What?
Me: Well, if I was getting free milk, I might still buy a cow if I wanted steak.
Him: … that’s not funny Daniel. Let’s go.
I think the takeaway is that women are cows who are to be bought and sold with commitment. I think my point is a good one though.
Parents with disabilities shouldn’t be discriminated against, but all too often, they are.
According to talkpoverty.org, disabled parents are more likely to lose custody of their children during a divorce than non-disabled parents. In 37 states, parents can have their custodial rights revoked solely because they’re disabled. Child welfare services remove children of disabled parents at higher than average rates, and disabled people also face discrimination when adopting and fostering children.
The vast majority of parents with disabilities are capable of providing a safe, loving home for their children. Families shouldn’t be separated because of these discriminatory practices that are based on outdated, ableist definitions of parental fitness.
Here I am up at 3am, searching for myself. Searching for a meaning, a purpose. Who I am, who people say I am, who my parents think I am, who I’m meant to be, who I should be.
Having flunked out of college was one thing, but this was another. She had dreaded telling her family the news: that they had wasted their money, that she had wasted her time. She just wasn’t cut out for college. They weren’t angry, in fact, she was surprised, at the time, how happy they seemed.
“We’ll get our little girl back!” her mother had exclaimed, hugging her close.
She didn’t realize what that would entail at the time, but now, back in her childhood bedroom clad in only a tiny party dress, her diaper completely on public display, she knew this was her fate. Her mother had transformed her back to infancy, re-raising her from square one, diaper days.
Her family looked on as she squatted childishly in the corner, facing her teddy bears, unable to believe that they wouldn’t even let her use the bathroom anymore. She had to go right in her diapers, grunting on the floor as the mess slipped out of her and into her Pampers.
As the adults continued to talk, half-paying attention to the pathetic display on the floor, she knew that this wasn’t even the worst part to come. Soon, she’d be on display on the changing table pad, legs spread in the air as her mommy wiped the brown clumps off of her while idly chatting with her guests.
Her face burned with embarrassment at the thought as her diaper expanded and sagged heavily.

Did you know oak trees are both male and female and belong in the family Quercus (“queercus”) ;) And that they help their offspring by sharing nutrients and fungi?
