Yeah I’m not 100% sure how I feel about this. I think it’s just a poorly done parody. Maybe seeing the character in the film will push it into offensive territory but I don’t think it’s there yet. I really don’t think Cumberbatch would have done the movie if the character was offensive. He (or his people) seems smart…

that money would solve all my problems. like. all my student debt gone, pay off my parents mortgage. hire a caretaker for mom.... sigh.

I don’t care what KK does one way or the other, but wouldn’t it be a brilliant PR move for her to get Kanye to donate 1 million dollars to mothers living below the poverty line who get no paid maternity leave as a “push present”?

he needs to resign. This is embarrassing. The Left is better than this.

Thank you for mentioning this. His half-remembered history is as dangerous as it is stupid.

oh, he’s pissed:

Foreign national is a funny way to spell American Citizen.

I hope George Takei punches him in the face, and if he cant do it for any reason (like he is too busy with the show he created based off his experiences) I volunteer to do it for him

Ah! I'm honestly horrified reading that. This is why we need legal access to health care! Young women under extreme levels of stress and fear do dumb, horrible things to their bodies.

Vitamin C can actually be very helpful in starting your period.

My mother had an abortion before Roe v. Wade. She met a skeezy doctor in a hotel room that she paid for. He put her under for the procedure and she woke up alone in a bed soaked in her own blood. When I think that my mother, an accomplished careerwoman and OG social justice warrior could have died, young, alone,…

Other herbs are Dong Quai, and if you’re using vitamin C, make sure it doesn’t have rosehips in it, since that will have the opposite effect of what you’re going for.

Except for Hitler! ;)

I remember girls in college having all kinds of tips and tricks to “induce your period” (i.e. early abortion) if they thought they may have been pregnant. I never knew anyone to be actually confirmed pregnant aborting their pregnancies, but I remember girls taking a week’s worth of birth control pills, a shit ton of…

That’s about the size of it. Abortions won’t stop just because clinics close. They will just become incredibly unsafe, and women will die or be maimed as they attempt to terminate these unwanted pregnancies. The well-to-do will always be able to get their D&Cs, but the poor and desperate are the ones who will suffer.

When Roe vs Wade led to the legalization of abortion, I remember my mom - a relatively apolitical woman - practically weeping with joy. She’d had me very young, and I’m sure she toyed with the idea of abortion - but it was illegal and dangerous. How dangerous? As a high school student, she’d driven a girlfriend across…

This really goes to show that you’re either pro-choice, or you’re pro-illegal/unsafe abortion. I read that somewhere (possibly from another Jezebel commenter) and it has stuck with me ever since.

Any ideas on what lipstick shade JLaw is wearing? She looks so gorgeous!
