I know of someone who was named after the abortion clinic her mother decided not to use.

Because if I have to acknowledge the likelihood that my parents had sex, it’s at least better to assume it was dutiful and joyless and only happened the once.

Out in nature, the majority of estrogenic compounds come from things like agricultural byproducts, fire retardants, and industrial pollution. Oral contraceptives are an issue, but blaming them specifically for the hormone disruption going on in humans and wild animals is like blaming the final straw for the camel’s…

One of the things this writeup doesn’t touch on is that, specifically, endocrine disrupters have been linked to intersex fish; that’s something that was observed actually occurring in ecosystems in the early 2000s (actually I’m sure there are earlier documented observations, but the system I’m most familiar with, it…

Shouldn't a boy who got a girl pregnant also be exhibiting poor "discipline" by this same reasoning and also be prohibited from class?

I am mostly offended by the fact that is one of the weakest, dumbest "jokes" I have ever heard.

This is a pretty accurate summary of my reaction:

For those who don't know who Trevor Noah is, a gift from his stand up. I say Comedy Central made a good choice here.

And yet, everyone dismisses it as a cynical attempt to remain relevant.

I like Madonna's efforts to defy the All About Eve narrative generally thrust upon competing older/younger entertainers. Her collaborations with younger performers brings continuity, generosity and a kind of sympático to a process commonly depicted as ugly and cutthroat.

John Snow was asked for comment as to why the Queen declined to sit on the throne, "I know nothing", he replied.

The Queen is so well dressed you might say Wintour is coming....i'll let myself out.

I forged close and lasting relationships with the cast, producers and crew and most especially, with Dakota and Jamie.
