Yeah, that should be everyone’s first question- 10K to the principal or interest?

Why do all the articles about this use photos of the women who sing the song rather than the men who are bringing the lawsuit?

Yes. In states where abortion is a crime, medical professionals are claiming that this falls under mandated reporting laws.

I saw a tiktok claiming that a therapist only has to report if someone is currently at risk for being harmed by their patient, not past crimes committed by their patient, unless they think the patient will commit another crime. That may only be in certain states, (or completely untrue!), but perhaps all medical

This! It was weird to me that people felt the need to “take a side” in this. It’s not a game, celebrities could have just sat this one out- especially since it’s not as if people were asking *checks notes*, Elle Fanning to make a statement on this topic. 

I totally agree with her. The one-off social issue episodes feel awkward, so I hope they maintain them more as full storylines. They did a whole half season arc on PTSD after the shooting episode and that was done so well. They really showed how it affected each character differently and for a different amount of

Okay, but that was a GREAT episode of ER. 

Yeah, I know of a couple Damiens with various spellings and have never seen The Omen, so this one was an odd inclusion in this list for me. 

Thank you!

I feel like a simple solution here is a special celebrity airline. “Stars in the Sky”. It makes routine trips and famous people can ride with other famous people and their entourages. Schedule all those celebrity appearances around the flight schedule. Honestly, thanks to zoom I feel like there could be WAY more video

The anti-abortion solution to extra embryos has previously been a thing called a “compassionate transfer”. They transfer the embryos at a time in the person’s cycle where they are unlikely to take. The idea is that if it’s “meant to be”, the embryos will implant anyways and they will get pregnant. So they’ve never had

So, to preface, I disagree with this mindset. But I know what their bullshit “logic” is.

The guidance even specifically named methotrexate—a medication that can be used to treat ectopic pregnancies, which occur when an egg implants in the uterus,

I live in Texas. Democracy will survive if I don’t vote for Biden. Winning Texas has never been part of the DNC’s strategy. Now, state races down ballot I absolutely will vote blue, but my presidential vote has literally never counted in a general election in this state, so it’s not like it’s much of a threat for me

The day he got the nomination, I groaned and said, “fine, but I’m not voting for him twice.”
He hasn’t done anything yet to convince me otherwise.

But my point is that if Plan B is going to work, you don’t have a “released egg”. Plan B is supposed to stop it from releasing.

It also takes days to actually become pregnant after sex. Sperm are viable for up to 5 days (usually less), eggs for 24 hours. The mechanism of plan B is to try to delay ovulation until the sperm are no longer viable. It doesn’t do much if you’ve already ovulated. (Although, the good news is that eggs are only viable

I wasn’t warned about gestational hypertension until I was experiencing it. At 38 weeks I had a high BP and I was sent to the ER for monitoring. They tested for pre-eclampsia, watched me for a bit and sent me home. At 39 weeks I again had high BP, so my doctor scheduled an induction. She showed me a chart of all my BP

I mean, you saw what happened when Scalia died while Obama was still in office. They waited 11 months to replace him. You think if Ginsburg had retired they wouldn’t have done the same thing? 

Ooh, also don’t cross diagonally to get to the entrance of the store when you’re walking.
