OMG, guys, everyone, shh. SHHHH! Shut the fuck up. Joel McHale is naked.

My “favorite” Trump moment deserves SO MUCH MORE LAUGHTER than it’s received in traditional or social media: the moment he said Hillary Clinton has been fighting ISIS “her entire adult life.”

All lifestyle choices have consequences, some medical. I’m not saying there aren’t legitimate reasons to encourage particular outcomes. And I think if we get to a point where medical professionals are communicating better with patients, relying more on actual evidence instead of, say, not “allowing” patients to

I’m all about giving more accurate information about VBACs and enabling those women who would like TOLAC/VBAC to be able to go for it (particularly in light of what ACOG has to say about it). That said, ultimately, birth is birth is birth and the particulars are, in the long run, cosmetic details. As long as an

My issue is when it takes the same pious cast as ‘natural foods’ and misses the range of experiences that childbirth can involve.

I’m not ruling it out: she is precociously verbal and loves to dance ;-)...

I’d love for this information to serve as a impetus to quell haughty douchebags from getting all huffy and pearl-clutchy about how women choose (or have) to give birth—vaginal, “natural,” c-section, VBAC, RCD, etc—pull their heads out of their asses for a second and be like “Yo, here’s a problem that’s affecting WAY

I know “Botched by Nature” in the lower righthand corner of that first gif is an ad for the next show in the lineup, but it could just as easily be a caption for this exploitative asshat.

“Don’t tell me what to say”

There is little in this world that delights me more than the bitter, unvarnished, deep-seated loathing between Bill DeBlasio and Andrew Cuomo. And so it is with giggles and glee that I imagine DeBlasio’s smug, barely contained joy as he follows this scandal.

I hear this from anyone who has ever gone to hear her speak.
