Cherkis points out, too, that Fowley always denied sexually abusing The Runaways, quoted in a 2013 band biography as saying, “They can talk about it until the cows come home but, in my mind, I didn’t make love to anybody in the Runaways nor did they make love to me.” And that may be right, in that “love” is no one’s…

I kinda agree with Michael Douglas #oldsoul but it’s not new is it? I always thought actors overseas (especially from the UK) did better because they tended to go through more rigorous training on stage. I remember seeing a lot of Brit actors at the West End when they’re not in Hollywood doing big budget films, and…

Obvs, a diaphragm with holes shouldn’t be used, but I remember reading in (I think) “Our Bodies, Ourselves,” that a diaphragm should be thought of as “a plate that holds the important contraceptive, the spermicide, in place over the cervix.” The book also advised to check your diaphragm for holes after each use. I was…

Okay I was excited about this until I got the the “for prescription” part. What is this shit? Why would this need a prescription? I’m in the pill but it would be novel and nice to be able to just buy my BC at the store and not at the pharmacy. :\

ETA: I was thinking this would be nice to use as a secondary form instead…

See, that’s a dumb analogy because getting your laptop stolen doesn’t (or okay, very infrequently) give you PTSD which can make it impossible to come forward at the time of the incident.

So you don't think planning reproductive health decisions should include your own doctor? But no one should choose to work with a midwife? I commend you for your consistent principles.

Or because it’s on A FREAKING POLO FIELD IN PALM SPRINGS. It’s about as desert as a Hollywood set with middling food service.

Wait, are you a woman??? Does your gyno seriously only talk to you during the exam? You need a new doctor if that’s the case, that’s crazy. I’ve never not had a consult to go along with my exam, even if it’s just discussing how my birth control is affecting me. I mean I would assume if you’re of childbearing age you…

You’re missing the point entirely, and I think at this point you’re doing it on purpose. She never said he was a bad doctor. She said he was clinical and indifferent to her. I’m saying he’s a bad doctor, because I think that treating a woman in labor the same way you would treat a cow about to deliver a calf is bad…

I’ve had doctors with terrible bedside manner- ones that don’t even look at you when they’re not examining you. You know what I ended up with? Pneumonia in the worst case and long-undiagnosed conditions (anemia and thyroid issues) in the lesser ones.

Actually, that’s got to be pretty close to the definition of poor bedside manner. Only attending to the specific health needs and ignoring the patient is a shitty approach, and one that is likely to lead to the doctor missing something.

“The gall”? Yeah, I think she has every right to judge his bedside manner. And being called “indifferent” isn’t an insult so much as an observation. She saw he was clinical, so what?

A person can be an excellent doctor with terrible bedside manner. You don’t just go to a doctor on the day the baby’s coming out, you know.

I was SO into boho circa 2005-2009 and I'm so fucking over it I could spit. I hate this.

“Coachella & Versace”

Get a passport, you provincial.

European tour for me. Oktoberfest and Deutschland at the top of that list.

Waterloo, for the 200th anniversary of the battle. What? Dangit.

Or get fired. How about they fire her. I like the firing her option.
