As a Kansas Citian, whose city increasingly feels like an island oasis surrounded by the intellectual and moral desert that is rural Kansas and Missouri, McCaskill is a welcome voice of sanity and rationalism. We can’t afford to lose her. Here’s hoping for a speedy and lasting recovery so she can continue to serve her…

Right? I mean, why would his mom & step mom lie for him? Obvi the random teenage girl with zero connections just wants to be podcast famous.

Don, Jen, the known serial killer in the area, even Jay though that seems much less likely. Seems more he was somehow involved and encouraged to point his finger at Adnan. Adnan is definitely not the only suspect. Just the only suspect the detectives bothered investigating.

After listening to the Undisclosed podcast, I am much less convinced that he’s guilty. I mean he still could be for all I know, but the prosecutors and detectives did so many shady things that weren’t even revealed in Serial.

Dr. Alison Edelman of Oregon Health & Science University told KOIN she supports the new law, but points out some providers are afraid that women may not come in for preventative check-ups since they are able to get birth control at a pharmacy.

That is the information I was looking for. This is absolutely amazing, but I wish it were being offered on a sliding scale.

I know we’re going to hear from people saying that hormonal birth control carries health risks and shouldn’t be given out lightly, but I’d assume the health questionnaire might let the pharmacist use his/her judgement in prescribing if there is a mitigating health issue?

And how expensive will they be, compared with the $0 copay that people are supposed to have under the ACA? I mean, this is great for people without health insurance. Health check-ups are still very important, as was stated, and I want to know how they determine which birth control pill to give to a patient, or if it’s…

Twelve year olds can’t consent.
