Can we also talk about her marvelous owl blouse that looks very comfortable and I want it?

Her blouse is amazing and I want it.

which he uses once/twice max, then complains it “doesn’t work”

Oh God ALL OF THIS. My 45-year-old husband decided he needs a skin care regimen (better late than never *shrug*), so I buy $$$$ stuff, which he uses once/twice max, then complains it “doesn’t work” but that I “look so much younger than me” (we’re the same age). Honey, I have been reliably slathering shit on my skin…

I have INJURED myself taking off my sports bra by punching myself in the mouth as I struggled with a form-fitting garment designed to basically never come off once it gets sweaty. Name one thing men routinely wear that can cause injuries. And I didn’t even get into blisters from high heels, that thing when a pencil…

My dad, a white guy, repeatedly lost his shit when anyone interrupted him in a conversation. Keep in mind this guy interrupted everyone else, unilaterally ended topics of conversation if he doesn’t like what’s being said, and accused me of “talking back” when he can’t defend his arguments. (He once spanked me for…

I see your point about “ideal victims” and agree with it. One additional thing about miscarriages, however, is that there’s a dead embryo in your body that needs to come out. And, as the article notes, if your body doesn’t automatically flush it out, you must do one of two things - take the misoprostil, or get a D&C.…

Right? Transfer that to any other situation. Bookstore employee who sells law books goes to the court and starts dictating what laws should be invoked. Imagine a vegetarian cashier at a grocery store refusing to sell meat because they think the meat industry is immoral and the customer should eat more vegetables…

I agree on all points here - but #2 is an especially good point. I honestly don’t understand what gives pharmacists the authority to refuse a doctor’s orders for their patient. Barring any drug interactions or whatever that the doctor may have missed, it would seem fairly cut-and-dried that the pharmacist’s role at a…

This is absolute bullshit. These people get off on this kind of power. I'm so sick of people who can't see past their own rinkly shrunken dick that see their views as everyones views. I've seen far too much of this shit lately and it's not something that I have to deal with.

People who think their feelings are more important that providing healthcare to a person should not work in healthcare in any capacity.

The reasons for wanting a legally prescribed medication should not matter. Yes, this situation is particularly tragic because the woman wanted a child and the fetus died and she needed to abort. BUT....how about a situation involving a woman who doesn’t want to have a child and needs to abort a viable fetus? The…

Fuck that guy, fuck Walgreens, and fuck the law making it ok.

with you on this. (as a disabled person.)

No, she Betty

so he swapped his seat for one toward the back

I’ve seen it. And, I think the movie falls into the same trap that The Village Voice piece did.

Because they, like Brandon’s rapists/murderers, saw his genitalia as an essential part of his being.

I’m guessing it was because they didn’t think Brandon Teena was a man; they thought he was a woman dressing as a man. Like Minkowitz wrote, “...a belief of the early Nineties: that trans meant (solely) ‘surgically altering your body to align with your gender identity.’”
