The scary thing is that it really seems to be the case that having a kid changes your brain, at least for most people. People who weren't sure they wanted kids become completely different people who are absolutely obsessed with their kids.

That's probably a good thing from an evolutionary point of view, but it's freakish to see it happen. It's also sometimes a tragedy when it doesn't happen and someone who was ambivalent about having kids is not thrilled with having a kid when it happens.

People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
  7. If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement
