I find that if I think of ththisus movie as a child’s fairy tale instead of a SciFi film, I enjoy it sooooo much more.

Isreal did stuff like that to immigrants. Didn't even clearly inform them they were being implanted with birth control.

In their mindset, children and the suffering they bring are the endgame. Either live your life according to their unreasonable views or suffer. They literally want sex to have as many terrible consequences as possible so that, in their minds, people will be forced to live in heterosexual married couples with mother…

Hundreds of medical professionals from America have treated Ebola patients in Africa. Precisely 3 have contracted the disease. Zero have transmitted it to others. Face facts: what she is attempting to do isn't revolutionary, it's been the status quo for over a year. Do try to separate your SciFi fear of Ebola from the…

The common cold disrupts your sleep. Moving to a new apartment causes a lot of stress and distraction. A sick relative will make it hard to focus at work. The point is, on any given day the pregnant woman isn't likely the most distracted or sleep deprived person in any given office. We shouldn't pretend she is.

I thought it was many people writing under a collective pseudonym... It really is just one man?

Something like 10% of the US adult population is on antidepressants, which don't mix well with alcohol. My SSRI makes my anxiety manageable, but makes even a glass of wine impossible. I know that's not the only medicine or medical condition that makes drinking more difficult than it's worth. See also pregnancy and…

Psh. In their world ghosts are a verifiable natural phenomenon. Totally scientists.

Dengue fever has come to Japan this year. Let's test these theories.

I don't think my school's showers even worked.

Probably meant bulimia because her cat probably yakked on the carpet.

My grandmother held it against me for years that kid me talked about inheriting her tea cup collection when she died. :(

I tried and was denied because my uterus was too small. I wish like none other I could get an IUD. The Planned Parenthood nurse told me to come back after a pregnancy to try again. Defeat the purpose much?

When birth is treated with greater WTF disregard for reality than death. Sure. A great many genre works feature fantastical death. People are killed by lasers, vampires, magic, and revived by zombie viruses, nanites, and what have you. But, many also feature natural death. Buffy the Vampire Slayer's mom dies of…

Air pollution HAS been linked to insulin resistance (Science Daily) which alters how the body handles the calories it consumes. Environmental contamination is a safe bet as a top cause of obesity. There was a doctor who did a TED talk about how the diabetes epidemic could be perceived backwards. People with metabolic…

Sorry, I meant synthol not saline. The dudes who inject synthol into their muscles get insta-bulk. Google image search synthol. It's the muscle man image over substance trifecta. Calf/butt implants, steroids, and synthol. Even lypo girls have to diet to maintain. And, really, lypo/stomach staples/lap band surgery are…

The dudes who inject saline into their muscles, the dudes who get calf implants, the dudes who do steroids all point otherwise.

Chiming in on the teacher thing. I probably will never end up with children of my own, but when my elementary school students ask why I reply that I already have about 500 students/children. No need for more.

They whispered secrets to the kids at the beginning of the film. Who's to say they didn't give the kids all the info they needed to survive? This one is just a case of not enough info to draw a conclusion.

Exactly. My sister is a nurse in a maternity ward and that's the way most doulas and midwives behave and function in the hospital. Patient advocates. The hate in this thread is bizarre and unfounded.
