entering my Noho Hank phase with the most stylish and gorgeous old friends on the planet...Ialso want to thank God for my profound and inborn lactose tolerance, which serves me so well as I approach my 40s and can still put away milkshakes of profound size and depth

Hopefully some sort of catastrophic event will wipe out the entire internet and teen aged Rocco will never see what his "other mother" was up to online while he was a baby.

Maybe by then he and LaLa will be far away from Joe. Living under new names.

Funnily enough there’s a self-described lesbian couple I can think of with a similar problem, although in their case they brought the extra woman with them. She’s a bit of a buzzkill with a buzz cut, but quite handy for babysitting.
 
Joe currently wears gaudy and unnecessary clothes for much the same reason they did, Mal.

Alas, Berkeley, you do me wrong
To cast me off discourteously
