Me (cis f) and my soulmate (mtf) are having our son on Friday and we just finished her second lactation consultation today. She's been on a protocol of hormones that essentially mimics pregnancy and can trigger lactation it's looking like she's starting to produce a milky like substance which she got swabbed today during the appointment. Her breast development has also sky rocketed since the new protocol and she's really happy with that. She's just been glowing and I can see her confidence increasing which makes me so happy for her. If all is well she will be able to eventually feed our baby (we will both be breastfeeding).

The lactation consultant seems really hopeful and excited because there aren't many cases of situations like ours. There have been studies about trans women breastfeeding but what makes our situation a little different is that our baby is my fiancées biological son. I feel like in a way my fiancée will be able to help other trans women in the sense of providing the lactation consultant with this experience and further knowledge on MTF breastfeeding. Her lactation consultant has dealt with lesbian couples before, but not a lesbian cis/trans couple.

On top of that, my fiancée is so excited to be a mother and I know she's going to be amazing at it, I can't wait to see her hold and love our son and I'm so excited to start this new chapter with her. I love her so much.

It's over Ukroids

David Hogg is being a pig, according to Democratic National Committee insiders who are already slinging mud at the new party vice chairman.

Barely two weeks into his tenure, Hogg has been leveraging DNC contact lists to blast out messages soliciting donations to his own political action committee — from which he draws more than $100,000 in compensation a year, according to Federal Election Commission records.

...

Hogg co-founded "Leaders We Deserve" in August 2023 with the stated goal of electing young progressives to Congress and state legislatures across the country. It also provided him a six-figure income job right out of college.

Since the PAC was founded, Hogg has pocketed more than $175,000, records show, with more than $20,000 in salary payments coming in December alone, the most recent month for which public data is available.

Documents show that not only did the “Leaders we Deserve” PAC pay David Hogg $16,351.39 in May, he is also on the permanent payroll.

THIS MEANS HIS PAYMENT WAS NOT a donation. He represents the PAC with every single statement, post and speech he gives.

Canadian here. Not sure if this is PreperIntel worthy but just reporting something I've honestly never seen in my life. Canadians woke up today feeling super patriotic. And super pissed. Not that we aren't usually patriotic but we aren't a bunch of flag wavers. It's more a quiet patriotism we keep to ourselves. And we are generally a polite and reserved bunch in general.

Not today. Holy... the mood in Canada is ... PISSED.

Most of the anger is aimed at your current head of state but also at your country as a whole. Not so much individual Americans. You will be perfectly safe traveling through Canada or visiting. But there is outright anger directed at any product with a "Made in the USA" flag. Every store in Canada is going around with maple leaf stickers marking the "Made in Canada" products. Consumer boycotts are springing up organically across the country. The talk is really sort of ... ugly.

I get the sense there has been significant damage done to the US Brand in Canada. And I don't think it's confined to Canada. I have friends in the UK who say the same. They are also just frankly pissed beyond all reason. I expect it's the same across Europe.

Hopefully it dies down. It's absolutely non-productive and unCanadian. America and Canada have been ride or die BFF's for a century or more. I live in Arizona 1/2 time and I love LOVE it here. I have yet to personally meet an American I didn't genuinely like. You are good people. You do not deserve any of this.

Unless of course you voted for this. In which case... hope you get everything you voted for and then some.

Someone ping more !hockey !chuds !burgers

Me and my partner are both plus size. We were having s*x doggy position and he slipped out and immediately try to go back in but went into my butt instead.

This is the second time within a month that the same incident has happened. First time I cried so much because it hurt and he comforted me. This time it hurt still as much but I didn't cry because I'm more mad than sad.

I'm mad because I've always told him that I never want to do anal it's not something for me and he brought up doing anal for the longest time until I told him I'd have to break up if this was a deal breaker because it's never happening and he let it go.

Now that this has happened twice so close together I feel as if it's been done on purpose. Only because we've always done doggy and when he slips he repositions himself gently back in he never just tries to immediately go back in.

He apologized and said "I'm sorry. It's my fault I've gained weight and my belly is more round so I couldn't see and didn't realize"

So am I to believe his belly blocked him and he was just into it that's why he didn't position himself gently back or was this done on purpose? He didn't stay in long only because I let out a scream and told him to get off. It just feels so close together to have the same thing happen twice when in our 2 year relationship this has never happened before.

JUST WANTED TO ADD: Thank you I just felt like I was overthinking this. Once I brushed it off as accidental but twice within a month is too much. He is currently snoring while I'm here with a bit of soreness, nothing compared to the first time it happened but still. This happening twice now… I don't want to think he did it on purpose but this is looking like it was. I'm not sure how to proceed if we didn't have a baby together I'd say it's over. But me being a sahm me leaving over this it just can't happen overnight.

I think I'll just refrain from s*x with him for a while. He's not an aggressive or mean person but this incident just has me needing to take a step back from being intimate.
