As a breastfeeding, babywearing, co-sleeping, cloth-diapering, homemade baby-food making mom who has had two natural childbirths, I feel that Hathor the Cow Goddess is batshit fuck*ng looney.

I am all about letting people make their own decisions about what to do with their bodies and their kids, but that means being OK with the fact that some women choose epidurals and formula. It means not only being OK with it, but SUPPORTING my fellow moms in whatever choices they make, because heaven knows that being a parent is hard enough without other people throwing guilt all over you every time you have to make a decision.

Sure, breastfeeding is "natural" and it's what a woman's body is built for. It seems like it should be easy, since it was the sole source of nutrition for babies for most of human history. But historically, many babies have died of malnutrition because their mothers couldn't produce enough milk, or because they were premature and couldn't latch properly, or any number of other problems that interfere with nursing. You know what's "natural?" Having eleven children and watching half of them die because you can't feed them all.

Let's see Hathor the Cow Goddess defend that.

Dying in childbirth, too. As well as dying of infections instead of taking antibiotics. Etc.

Really, nature sucks. There is a good reason we invented civilization.

I think she addresses those mothers as lazy and/or selgiraffe.

Did they try massage?  The baby thought bubble suggested massage.

That filter just keeps getting better for me.

Can you spot the continuity error?

I'm afraid I don't know what's going on at all really.  Perhaps you would endeavor to explain.

[Chump Change]

Her head exploded.

The continuity error is that, despite this comic, Jack Chick never converted to Scientology.

The whole thing's a disjointed mess.  That was like trying to watch Lost while stoned.

[KeithHernandez]

See all of popular culture makes more since if you are stoned though.

I can understand just sitting around eating chips and watching the biggest loser stoned (not that I do that), but the people who aren't? whats up with that?

[greenkoolayd]

im not interested in trying hallucinogens, but i always thought it would be interesting to drop acid and watch that lame live action 'masters of the universe' with dolph lundgren as heman.

[littlefallsmets]

Is it because on Eternia, they don't say goodbye, they say good journey?

Because every parting is an opportunity to meet again someday?

And then Courtney Cox violates all the laws of causality as we were taught them by Back to the Future by saving her parents' lives?

i fixed my own typo.  whew.
