Don’t get me wrong, I’m a garbage person, but “you don’t want to disappoint your fans” is about as gross as it gets.

Worse, it replicates a dynamic commonly found in abusive relationships.

Tubal Litigation lolol

The Repeal the 8th campaign quite nearly broke my family apart. I’ve cousins (sisters) who are foursquare opposed on the issue. I’m from & live in the States; I lived in Ireland for several of my teen years, so I watch Irish news/politics quite closely. I was surprised & quite pleased that the vote went the way it did.

Okay, so, here’s the thing: I get it. If your core, central belief on which you base your entire life holds that any kind of interference with a pregnancy is equivalent to murder, these policies make sense. What’s some suffering/discomfort compared to the literal life of another being and, potentially, your immortal…

At about 3 weeks pregnant (I always knew very early), I had horrendous abdominal pain. I couldn’t even stand. I was in bed, sweating, and couldn’t move. When I was sent to a (Catholic) hospital, the nurse who did my intake asked me basic questions: name, age, previous pregnancies, religion... when I mentioned I’m…

And the people that push it!!

This is just another reason why the US needs nationalized, single payer, healthcare. Churches shouldn’t be running hostpitals unless those hospitals are regulated the same as any other hospital and have to offer all of the same services, regardless of religious beliefes, to all patients.  This is pure bullshit.

Fuck religion!!!

So, in this anthology scenario, Tom becomes a sort of jealous god, deciding who is truly ‘special,’ and the donor recipient has until Christmas to prove they are worthy. If not, Tom’s ghost kills them, and his heart passes, like a holiday fruitcake, to someone new. Got it. I’d watch.

Not to mention that Guiliana Rancic was part of the E! crew who regularly tore apart people’s looks and mean-girl snarked all over the place. I think that makes her fair game. But I remember an interview where she covered her daily routine/eating habits and it was seriously disordered eating to the point that it…

I understand where you’re coming from (that all body shaming is icky and problematic — ideally there should be none of it) but in this case, it’s obstensibly why Guiliana was able to do so well at E! and in front of the camera. She looks and plays the part. You think she would have gotten this same job if she wasn’t…

You’re talking about the woman who pitched the idea for Bridalplasty, a reality show so twisted that even E! passed on it.

Sorry but she looked like the crypt keeper years before getting cancer, she even talked about how her doctor was trying to get her to gain weight so she could get pregnant and I read some piece on her about her daily workout and meal routines and all signs pointed to eating disorder. And like I said, this was long…

I think that if either one of them is the nominee, they need to pick a VP that is considerably younger, and preferably a POC not from New England.  Like Julian Castro or Andrew Gillum.

Hey Blackoak!

Tbh, I think his age and recent heart attack does raise fair concerns about whether he can really sustain a grueling campaign and presidency. If he was 10 years younger and had not had a heart attack I would be a little more confident in his ability to go the long haul.

(Psst! Haven’t you got the message? We’re all pretending Bernie Sanders isn’t even in contention anymore! Don’t bring up his name! Pass it on!)

It’s the same ridiculous tone policing that white men have been doing for eons. And note that Bernie Sanders literally yells (which I’m absolutely fine with btw) and he is rarely taken to task for it. Warren is even tempered in comparison, but that doesn’t stop the tone policing.

When I saw the article I thought to myself, “Damn right she’s angry and she’s not the only one.”
