We have to be stop this high road shit. Strong liberal values with no morals is the way to play. Imma hide behind a door in the White House and hit them with a frying pan...repeatedly...until they stop moving. The cartoonish nature of the assasination will make me feel better about the violence.
I have had prenatal services provided by PP. That was that first place I heard my son’s heartbeat. I’m sure it varies from clinic to clinic but I did have to drive over 40 minutes away to a clinic different from one that did my pregnancy test. I was fourtunate enough to start a job soon after that before the second…
We booked hotels for them for the time being and we have someone from our community (she’s done a lot of work with refugee resettlement) with them to make sure their needs are met. There’s going to be a meeting today to figure out what our next step is. The mosque has a zakat (charity) fund that can keep them going…
Fucking heartbreaking. Is there anyone way we can support them while they’re stuck in Istanbul?
Reminds me of this!
I know this is not entertainment news but the three Syrian families our mosque sponsored will not be coming to America as a result of the ban. They sold all their belongings, went through two years of grueling interviews and background checks and were at the airport in Istanbul Ataturk airport with their luggage and…
I was drugged in college and the last thing I remember is my friend screaming at the guys following us to leave us alone before totally blacking out. After two beers. The photos from the night are not things I remember doing. Being fully clothed and speaking coherent sentences doesn’t mean she wasn’t drugged.
PP doesn’t offer prenatal services for many reasons. The one I work at (which does not have abortion services) has a nurse practitioner. The nurse practitioner has to have a supervising doctor who practices within a certain amount of miles of the center. This is not easy to find since we live are such a conservative…
It depends on the clinic, but no, prenatal services aren’t a big part of Planned Parenthood’s mission. That’s mostly because in most states, low-income pregnant women automatically qualify for Medicaid or similar options, even pre-ACA. For example, at the Planned Parenthood clinic I used to volunteer with, we didn’t…
I was an unwanted child. My teenage mother put my twin and I up for adoption. She was sent away to a home for “unwed mothers”. It was totally against her will. She wanted an abortion and was told she would go to “hell” if she did so.
I refuse to call them anti-choice. They are FORCED BIRTH and nothing more. A group who claims life is so sacred they vote against literally every life saving measure for living human beings. WIC that could help millions of toddlers? Fuck ‘em says the GOP. Affordable healthcare? Fuck ‘em. Head Start programs that shows…
I have a somewhat irrational dislike for Lea Michele...
As weird as it sounds, I’d like my kid to have fun, be confident and able to enjoy something that increases intimacy and rapport with a person he loves. Shame should not be part of it.
It never happens at a time that’s convenient and when you’re emotionally prepared. Mine asked me loudly and piercingly while we were on a city bus at rush hour. The entire bus went silent so they could hear my answer. I used no metaphors and told him straight up that men put their penis into a woman’s vagina, and…
When my nephew was 4, he asked his mother, my sister, why her boobies were getting so big and if the baby was there too. We still laugh about this and he’s 19 now.
It’s pretty common for the age (I’m a former daycare teacher and I worked with that age for many, many years), but usually preschoolers are satisfied with the simple answers (“mommy and daddy put it in together” as you said) at that age.
LOL YR FUCKING DAD. To be clear, in the anecdote above, I first glanced at my husband (standing right next to me) and said, “Honey”? And he walked out of the room. Must be a male instinct?
I hate to be this way but i really wish Thandie could say that my penis was beautiful.. She has never gotten the due she deserves as an actress and a beauty.
