President Obama’s “health care for all” law was officially called the “Affordable Care Act” but has been nicknamed Obamacare in honor of its champion.

But then how are they going to be able to make friends if they can’t pay for them?

Why not make this suspension permanent, and, in fact, universal to all sororities and fraternities? Between hazing deaths, extreme and fatal inebriation; sexual violence; racial discrimination; and widespread misogyny, these houses have proved their recklessness and irresponsibility, manifold.

So, wait. She killed three husbands/BFs and attempted to kill another, *plus* three other husbands died as well? Damn, she’s a serial killer.

Indeed! It might be appropriate for preschool teachers.

I think the stuff is sort of cute, in an I would never actually wear it but it seems good for people who are always positive and like impromptu dance parties. I couldn’t imagine wearing that many bright colors at once.

I wish someone would write an article about the new wave MLMs that target mom. Every mom I know now sells something (LulaRoe, Scentsy, Norwex, Pampered Chef), the shit just goes on and on.

this is the one crucial piece of info that is somehow always missing from any article about LulaRoe and its shadiness/inherent pyrmaid scheme setup. HOW DOES ANYONE THINK THESE CLOTHES ARE ATTRACTIVE? I call it the “i don’t want my husband to find me remotely fuckable anymore” look. really, does anyone think this shit

Holy cow, are we making an issue out of this? I saw the Beyond Stranger Things episode myself and Sadie was embarrassed, but not traumatized. If you get a job in Hollywood you eventually have to pretend to kiss people you don’t love in real life. It’s how acting works. Quit grasping at straws just because you’re

For a lot of poor women (in Texas specifically as I know how that system works) pregnancy Medicaid is the only time in their lives that they have health insurance. They aren’t healthy in general and particularly noteworthy is the lack of dental care which I feel gets overlooked in terms of general health and in

This is SO important. The risks of an unhealthy person in pregancy are astronomical to both the fetus and the parent. An OB I dated ages ago was completely flabbergasted by the number of pregnant women with preventable health conditions that ultimately wound up hospitalized or worse due to risky pregnancies.

I suspect a LARGE portion. I am not denying that there aren’t people with legitimate chronic pain issues. There totally are. But SOME of those people with “chronic pain issues” are people whose bodies have stopped producing its own pain killers in favor of narcotics. And it’s super convenient to think of yourself as

I’m not doubting her, but I’ve worked in the business of crafting legal statements on behalf of clients and this is probably one. It doesn’t diminish the fact that the sentiments are her own.

I doubt she wrote the statement (I wish I didn’t see shit this way) but I hope it aligns with her feelings — immigrants are thoughtful people and young women are thoughtful people who deserve personal agency and control over their bodies no matter what. Even if they were thoughtless pigs, they’d deserve to control

If anything sincere comes out about Obama or Carter I’m fucking done.

While the younger Bush’s political morality is certainly questionable, he always came across as personally sincere; I wouldn’t expect him to be a groper.

I don’t find it to be misogynistic. The women have most of the power in their relationships. The men are portrayed as fumbling, nervous geeks, desperate for validation.

“If you believe that feminism is transformative, that its goal is to dismantle the patriarchy, then Bialik’s feminism is the weakest iteration imaginable.”

You know, I asked my Jewish friends about this one once.. they laughed themselves silly at the thought that anyone would believe such things. Its kind of like the rumor people have that Catholics aren’t suppose to have sex unless it is to have children. In both cases, at best, it represents a fundamental
