Yeah, it is really unfortunate. The way I looked at is was, this guy didn’t just get sick of her. They were married 50+ years and at an advanced age where death is fairly imminent. If anyone could surmise that she was in enough pain that death would be better, it was probably him. What an awful burden he will have to…

I have Huntington’s disease. Pretty similar to Parkinson’s, same symptoms diff cause really. Early onset, such fun, wooo! Anyways. Prior to “obamacare” I was basically facing down death because I wasn’t eligible for any insurance. Since obamacare I’m still dying obv, but I get medication now so it’s not as…

I mean yeah, so long as you don’t get pregnant in 60% of this country. Or you’re black. Or poor. Or here under less than legal circumstances. Or you’re sick...

Am I the only who thinks this is especially weird considering News/Media outlets like this often value looks just as much, if not more, than one’s resume? But I imagine it’s extremely intimidating to work with a woman who is both intelligent, confident, and attractive, which is why they felt a need to knock her down a…

If she’s only 25 she must have smoked a ton of cigarettes in the past decade. You can see it in her skin. It’s a shame she even feels she has to lie. I think the younger generations care less about age and more about how crazy hot she is.

There is a variety of things we do to our children we shouldn’t because instead of seeing ourselves as teachers we’ve been taught we’re overlords. No one ever stops to think, if I circumcise my son I am literally cutting off a piece of his body (usually for vanity!). No one says, if I raise my child vegetarian or…

I think this is a the grass is always greener moment, because I have DD’s and after breastfeeding they just don’t have shape at all anymore so I wishhhh they were smaller. I’m also bummed.

Well if you ever get married and then divorced you will have a nice house and a considerable estate out of the deal?

As a former tattoo artist I’m using this as an example of why you should never get a baby’s face tattooed on you. Babies look like absolutely nothing. They’re little round blank canvases that are only minorly distinct from one another. It will look exactly like 400 million other babies. Get a footprint, or a…

An adult human would be in advanced decomposition after 8 weeks. I can’t even fathom what an infant would look like but christ it would smell.

I don’t see how. If you received a call right now and were told your boss molested his daughter would you quit your job? Probably not. In an ideal world you could and would, but in real life you would most likely be like “well that’s awful but why should it affect MY career?” Why should she miss out on something she…

I thought the whole idea of feminism is to support our sisters in what they do. A Woody Allen movie is a powerful career move for an extremely talented actress. Why can’t she consider herself, and only herself, in her decision? She’s one of the few actresses I know of that have been like yeah, fuck what people think,…

A hospital can always turn you away if your condition isn’t live threatening, you aren’t in active labor, or if they’re objecting on religious grounds. All the hospitals in my area are religiously owned and run and I was turned away for having a horrible reaction to birth control. It was the implant. I honestly…

Most hospitals will turn you away while having a miscarriage if you’re under x amount of weeks. Usually 12, but I have seen up to 20. If you come in and they diagnose you as having a miscarriage they send you home. Tell you to call your doctor when it’s complete so you can be examined or refer you to one. I was told…

Because we look at drug addicts like these as disgusting criminals who abuse their bodies and never consider that happy healthy people who have received support, care, and a good education, rarely end up like this. So we assume these people did this to themselves and deserve punishment. But most well rounded people…

The truth is the remains won’t be buried unless some kind, generous funeral director comes forward and offers. It will be collected by a medical facility and disposed of the way all medical waste is. This woman likely won’t receive the counseling she needs either. It sounds as if she miscarried under the influence,…

I would imagine it was the drugs. Guilt. Etc. It sounds as if this woman had no support or care. I just still don’t understand turning her away when any average person could have seen she was in distress. My best friend was miscarrying and her doc told her to bring the sample in or just flush it. She went to the…

I am actually angry because after a week you could’ve started to face septic shock and also most doctors will offer you a D&C if it’s still going on after a few days or you don’t want to deal with bringing the sample in. Which while I don’t consider them people they’re not exactly mushy blobs either and most women…

My doc wouldn’t even confirm until she believed I was at least 9 weeks, so I came in for my appointment when they told me and they were annoyed that it turned out I was only 8ish weeks.

Nooooo they’re so tiny it would’ve decomposed in 8 weeks. I posted a photo above. They’re not people like, but they’re pretty distinctly pre-human.
