I wish the narrative reflected “people who couldn’t get coverage before, got coverage through ACA, until everyone realized bottom line will always be what companies care about most and they’d rather these people die”

Ahhhh Rio. “We’re not a corrupt, crime-filled city, how dare you insinuate that!

Now give us your passport for saying so.”

I mean, there’s always the option of removing the largest unnecessary cost which is, you know, profits? You know, all that money that goes to the owners of the private insurance companies that could, I don’t know? provide actual health care instead. That seems like a pretty simple cut to make.

The more I learn about pregnancy and childbirth from friends who have gone through it, the less appealing it sounds. There’s so much I never knew, like the post-birth bleeding and the impossibility of sleep and how fucked up your vagina can get. My husband and I are talking about trying to have a baby in a year or so,…

No, what it means is that we as a country aren’t serious about having a healthy population. It’s business as usual with profits over people — which is fine as long as we’re not complete hypocrite about it.

Why the fuck is health care an INDUSTRY in the first place??? I know, America, capitalism, profits etc. but wtf!!! No way to reconcile care and the best interests of a human being with the bottom line. Ffs.

If only there was model the US could work off of that would allow affordable health care for all that would not be subject to the whims of the marketplace and private corporations bottom lines. But alas, who can conceive of such a thing.....

I still like that movie though. Even if the plot is dumb.

This information negates the entire plot of Cool Runnings

Who is D’Agostino the wife of? I need to know this immediately.

I’m approaching 28 and definitely feel like a kid with boobs and a shitton of student loan debt about 90% of the time. The other 10% of the time I’m watching “professionals” do and say the stupidest things and thinking, “Shit, I underestimate myself. I could run circles around this dope.”

I’m 31 now, and I remember having a conversation with a college friend when we were both 25. She was like, “do you remember being a kid and thinking that 25 was SO OLD, and that you would DEFINITELY have all your shit together by then? Like, 100% solid career track, white picket fence house, dog, husband, etc.”

Those are all on Joe’s playlist, which you can easily hear blasting from the bitchin’ system in his Trans Am due to his liberal use of the t-top in summer.

The problem with your solution is that that’s not how the mental calculus goes for us women. It’s not: “Am I willing to punch this guy in the face even if it means he punches me in response?” Yeah, OK, I’ll go for it. I can take a punch. Except that’s not how it works.

Anyone that could find that Chloe Grace Moretz photo hypocritical.....you're ridiculous, you're stupid, you're bizarre. Like, what? Those things, they are not the same.

“Topless” usually refers to breasts. We’re seeing what anyone would see if she wore a halter top, in fact there could be a strap under her hair as far as we know. No secondary sexual characteristics are being displayed in the above photo, and I’m pretty sure that’s the important distinction here.

This doesn’t even count as a “nudie.” Besides, who cares?

I would say it starts in grade school. You know, when a boy is mean to a girl, and everyone says she can’t be upset about it because he’s only doing it “because he likes her”. So she should be flattered.

I would say it is more just something that comes up in society. I know a lot of businesses would require either evidence or an unbiased 3rd party such as a supervisor to personally witness and attest to it. It works the same way for guys and girls (at my work I need to have a female peer with me if I am talking with a…
