All of these laws are severely increasing the costs of healthcare. Instead of just being able to manage the miscarriages medically we’re forcing these women into multi-day stays and surgery and life threatening risks.

Yeah sure, nothing to worry about the guy having a public psychotic break who’s already threatened violence and his currently having a raging anti-semitic blow-out.

No exceptions, no restrictions abortion access is the only way. You don’t want doctors having to prepare a legal argument, hospitals seeking an injunction for every medical case. And no provider is going to roll the dice and hope she/he can convince some wacko AG later that the procedure was medically necessary. It is…

While all of this is horrific, I can’t get over how much a six hour ambulance ride probably costs, even with good insurance.

don’t forget that Jason also waited until Olivia was on stage giving a talk to a large audience to have a process server give her custody papers (in front of everyone).

Sudeikis apparently did ask for it not to happen in front of their kids so not at school and the like, but otherwise process servers pick when to serve their papers not their clients, and purely on when they can get to whomever.

Serious question.

All I want to know is WHAT MAKES THE SALAD DRESSING SPECIAL?

I would like to know what this special salad dressing Olivia makes. I suspect it's just ranch. 

Nah, more likely that he’s worried that Charles would potentially remove the titles the pair of them rely on to make money unlike Liz.

I’m pretty sure Sudeikis did not personally serve Wilde with the papers.

Absolutely fair point, although I would still say that if the comments you’re making on the record are comments you won’t want on the record when a nonagenarian dies, whether they’re about her or not, reconsider making those comments. That is a contingency that is on its way to coming sooner rather than later!

Basic rule of thumb: If you’re going to talk on the record about someone in their 90's, you should be pretty prepared for the possibility those words will soon apply to a dead person, for better or worse.

I know people mean well and are just genuinely curious. But then they stop listening half-way through my explanation, anyway.

Yeah, if you have to spell a name weirdly to make it “different” - it isn’t different! Just give them a different name. My granddaughter’s name is Pebble. It’s a family name with a very interesting history. It’s a little odd, but easy to spell and unique enough so that she won’t have anyone else in her class with the…

I will comment on every article about weird baby names and spellings, even if I only reach one person who is considering giving their baby a “unique” name:

If you’re going to go full bonkers on your kid’s name, that’s your prerogative. If you do that, my position is this: Maybe make sure the name you choose has a “mainstream” fallback. Either make it able to be shortened into a more common name (Contessina becomes Tess, for example), or give them a common middle name.…

This. I mean, he sounds like a bit of a dick and a weirdo anti-vaxxer but he might also have a case if the comments about his Irish origin are true.

If, say, 20 of my patients claim they have a “medical reason” to abstain from the vaccine, maybe only 1 will be legitimate. That’s why we all get vaccines, to help protect that one person who really can’t get it.

He’s trying to claim discrimination based on being Irish but then brings up trying to get an exemption for the vaccine mandate (because of surgery? no wonder the exemption was denied, even his surgeons would have advised him to get the vaccine) and wanting to take a disability leave, which sounds like happened a…
