Heroes. I’m so glad there are women like them pushing back against the bullshit. “Women aren’t physiologically able to run 26 miles.” Yeah that’s so true. As long as assheads keep saying shit like that, “medical mysteries” will keep happening though.

Haha his neurological thesis gave you a headache THANKS DAD. But yeah there was a pretty in-depth article in the NYT a while back about it — I’m typically suspicious of medical study reporting but this had multiple studies and sources so it seemed legit. I’m at a startup now with no health insurance, so I have to…

Everything that's mass marketed as a health product seems to be suspended in a high fructose corn syrup sludge or gummy or smoothie or something, usually without enough of the active ingredient to be effective. ITS NOT GONNA UNDO THAT QUARTER POUNDER JENNY.

That's sound medicine right there. :)

I dunno. I have pretty flawless dumpouts when I take my expensive probiotics. I also read they help with depression because some neurotransmitters are produced in the gut. But that's as far as my knowledge takes me. Empirically speaking they work for me! When it's in the budget. Don't bother with the yogurt though.…

And so much salt and pepper back hair. So much.

Patton O is hilarious in this piece. They make a great team! Sam’s voice is desperately needed— I wholeheartedly appreciate it when John Oliver or Jessica Jones or whoever calls this stuff out, but we need a woman (MORE THAN ONE PLEASE??!!) at the helm of a program that can focus on these issues like Sam. The humor…

Oh yeah, the looks of pity at family reunions...so fun. I’m not married and gave up on dating bc it wasn’t enriching my life and the men I dated were narcissistic babies, so I always get the well meaning set up offers. I can’t imagine the baby harassment you must get as a 20something with a husband. Somehow these…

Absolutely. My parents are actually pretty consistent with their beliefs/actions which is awesome but unfortunately being exploited here. But the bigger issue is obviously as you said, misleading and bullying women into such a profound commitment and then dropping them is the most unchristian bullshit I can imagine.…

Yeah, what about the women who support themselves and make difficult decisions by weighing all consequences including quality of life for any potential child?? It’s hard enough to get by in this world if you’re not born rich. Why do I feel like I’m viewed as a sad failure because I don’t want or have kids? There are…

Thank you :) omg the Mountain Dew thing...IF ONLY! I feel like that would do our gene pool some good.

Yeah (btw apologies for the family overshare) in this case sister is milking the mindset that if you choose to have a baby you're a saint. She's lucky my parents were dying to have a grandchild and are willing to raise it/pay her way.

This is playing out in my family right now. My sociopath sister gets knocked up (after an abortion a couple months earlier) and decides to have the kid with a narcissist maybe closeted gay man, and my baptist parents fall all over themselves to pave the way for her parasitic lifestyle wherein they raise the kid and…

“My uncle raped me, then I had the baby. As soon as I put it in a bucket with sunflowers I was like Thank God for my incest rape baby.”

I'm sorry for our whole family.

I think she and her clan believe that all babbies are #blessings that allow a woman to fulfill her earthly purpose. It's a cooing lil consolation prize from Jesus.

Heidi Cruz is my mom? No, she has enough troubles.
