I tend to believe women actually do know what best when it come to their own lives. Or at least, they know better than I do. And I also don’t think selfish always. means bad.

Yes, the most important take away here is to belittle a stranger’s philosophical beliefs and make assumptions about how she views prayer. That makes sense.

Yes value judgments about what women do being ‘best’ for our families always work out great for women to glad you included that.

Yeah comments like, “she really is going through a lot to be pregnant” don’t bother me because obviously, it’s true. Value judgments such as “it’s not worth it” annoy the shit out of me.

“...which is of course common among adopted (sic) parents”

What bothers me is that somehow this situation makes otherwise liberal minded women feel the need to get all judgy about other women’s reproductive choices. BECAUSE PEOPLE JUDGING WOMEN’S REPRODUCTIVE CHOICES ALWAYS WORKS OUT SO WELL FOR US.

She won’t have to take anti-rejection drugs forever. She’ll have the uterus removed when it’s done so she doesn’t have to take the drugs. It was in an earlier article, the uterus isn’t supposed to last terribly long, just long enough to have a baby or two, then they take it out.

No, she only has to take anti-rejection drugs until she has the uterus removed, after one or two pregnancies. Let’s assume that she’s considered whether this is right for her and her family, since she’s a grown ass woman and all.

I had to have a joint repaired using “donor bone” and it skeeved me out (dead guy’s haunted skeleton is in me!) but now I can walk so I’m cool.

On a basic level we are on the same team of wanting to reduce the instances of this kind of thing happening, but I think we differ on an understanding of the causes. I do have a personal stake in this so I will admit I am biased, but I also think I have personal experience that people who haven’t dealt with mental…

I have been pregnant and given birth and yes, I think most would argue the end product is the most important thing.

Would it skeeve you if a dead woman’s heart was keeping you alive?

I don’t believe in any gods either, but if one did exist, why would genetics/injury/disease represent their choices more than outcomes in science/medicine? Both types of event are caused by largely deterministic physical processes.

Can we, like, get into the habit of not fucking publishing the pics of the assailant as the lede images and instead, I dunno, the victim? Doesn’t she deserved to be remembered more than this entitled shitbag?

He had congenital glaucoma and lost his eye. I think it’s awesome that he doesn't wear an eye patch or use a glass eye. It serves no purpose other than making complete strangers feel comfortable with the fact that he’s missing an eye and that’s ridiculous.

When I read the story of him inspiring a young kid to not wear his glass eye, I teared up pretty quick. I say no to the eye patch!

He had eye cancer when he was a kid, or something like that.

He got into an accident as a kid and developed congenital glaucoma. Doctor’s managed to save one eye. As to why he isn’t wearing an eye patch? Because he fucking owns it, in my opinion.

She already had a date. He knew this. The goal was not a date to prom. The goal was murder right from the beginning.

The fact that he used a knife really gets me. That had to be planned. So he went in thinking, "well, if she rejects me, I'll really make her pay"...wtf?
