I see a lot of people in the comments agreeing that the show is transmisogynistic and comments saying trans women feel this way so I don’t want to question too much, but having watched the first few seasons I never got the impression that the joke was Fred armison in a dress. I always thought the joke was about the…

i fucking LOVED sleep no more! the play is macbeth. I was lucky enough the time i went to find lady macbeth just as the whole “out damned spot” thing happened. It was awesome.
Sleep No More is pretty cool. The play itself is nonsense but the atmosphere is unlike anything I’ve experienced before or sense. I look for other immersive plays because of the experience (And Then She Fell was also neat). Does anybody have suggestions of other immersive fun things to do?
I don’t think Mariah knows her.
OMG this made me miss Will and Grace so much. And Megan Mullaly’s boobs made me a little gayer
Now playing
What about this??? Why hasn’t anybody mentioned this?
It has been around 11 months since I watched it so I can say she’s not and I think Ellie’s confusing her with Kathy Najimy?
Wait, Rosie was in Hocus Pocus? Admittedly, it’s been a few years since I watched it, but what was her role?
I’m in the business. It’s not a competition. We should practice evidence based care, period. Often, that involves offering VBACs more than we do. Poor outcomes are due to not practicing evidence based care and not ensuring women have access to care.
More than one person has argued with me that pregnancy “isn’t that big of a health risk” any more and that “most pregnancies end up perfectly healthy” and that’s why abortion is wrong. So... Let’s assume that 99.9% of mothers and babies are fine. We’re just going to decide to not give a shit about the other 0.1% of…
So interesting! I think that using it in full awareness of how subjective it is/can be (very much like ‘natural foods’) is fine - one of my two births was quote-unquote natural until the moment that it wasn’t (it required emergency medical intervention, because Nature is a stone cold bitch sometimes and she just likes…
I’m not - sorry that wasn’t clear. I dislike the modifier ‘natural’ applied without question to a certain kind of childbirth, with its implied superiority. So I appreciated the subtle nod of the quotes, which I took as an acknowledgement that ‘natural’ is something of a subjective description.
Team midwife here too! Had both of my boys with a CNM (certified nurse midwife, 4 year RN plus a masters in midwifery). Uncomplicated pregnancy but complications with delivery number one and hemorrhaged both times. Glad I was in a hospital, but so glad I wasn’t being seen by an OB who would probably have had me have a…
YOU’RE THE BEST
I have this vision of a mobile preventive medicine team. A couple of nurses with a giant van that stops in rural areas and poor areas. Anyone can access the mobile unit for free. They check the basics: heart, lungs, the mini ECG ambulances uses, blood sugar, blood pressure. I can see that alone helping so many women…
That’s what I want to see. An increase in quality, qualified midwives. I saw one for my gynecological exams until I went to college and I loved her.
An RN midwife would greatly cut down on the cost of births for everyone, too. It reduces the immediate cost for the low-risk pregnancy, sure, but surely it must also cut down on unnecessary hospital costs and procedures due to protocol, so that more attention is spent on the high-risk patients. Then, since less…
Alberta has a midwife program whereby home birth with a midwife is free, and the midwife is a RN. It’s hard to access to the program because, obviously, the demand is overwhelming, but nevertheless it’s there, giving people more options that are still safe and lessens the overall impact on the system for low-risk…
Them, and the forced-birth douchebags what say “you can just give it up for adoption” as if pregnancy and childbirth weren’t a huge goddamn ordeal.
