Geldof wasn't exactly a saint in this regard. Tiger came with a sizeable inheritance. Geldof cut her off from the rest of her family, which is not in my opinion the act of someone who cares for a child.

I lost 60 pounds a few years ago and my boobs actually got bigger. They shrank at first, then grew.

You really cannot tell what someone weighs based on what they look like, or even comparing it to how you look. I know a woman who is about my same height, but when she weighed 15 pounds less than I did, she was still much larger physically. I was 195 and a size 14, she was 180 and a size 20.

Exactly! Why is this so hard for people to get?

They needed a trans sex worker specifically for the plot in the episode in which she first appeared. The whole point was that she was a trans woman who was also a sex worker. But she was also very attractive and saucy and positive and lovable.

In some cases yes, and in some cases no.

In the 80s, the GLBT community that I knew (in Texas!) was not so hung up on everyone having a definite gender identity. There was, and is, a lot of overlap between drag queens, cross dressers, and trans women. Self-identification was considered more important than conforming with the modern "norms" of the trans…

This may be totally foreign to your experience, but there was a time when many trans women did go into sex work, because they were otherwise unemployable. Likewise, though it is becoming fashionable for parents to accept their trans children, it wasn't always the case. Children who were trans frequently were (and in…

What makes it a conflict of interest? She has already been paid, she's not shilling for the film. And furthermore, her post is a direct contradiction of Kat's claim that Leto didn't consult trans women.

"Since when do we hand out awards for people just doing their jobs?"

LOL. If noticing a Kinja notification in the upper corner makes me a "sad person", then so are most people on the internet. But nice try!

The last book was clearly not for twelve year olds. The first one was, but the audience was intended to grow up with Harry. As Harry got older, the themes grew more mature.

Hi again pseudo-nurse. There are actually several compounds in wheat that are known to cause inflammation, gluten being only one of them. Another is WGA.

"If Miley hadn't been a child star first, her antics would not be upsetting to us at all."

Since I'm not writing a research paper, but merely relating my own personal experience, I don't have to show you any research. You've already proven that you are either not a nurse, or are a really sorry excuse for one.

Some evidence has suggested that WGA is to blame. I noticed that whole wheat products made things worse than refined ("white") wheat.

Pa was unable or unwilling to commit to any one profession or place of living. He was always looking for something for nothing, which was why he went west and staked a claim in the first place (and eventually he succeeded: he stayed on his claim near DeSmet long enough to get a free farm, and promptly sold it.)…

Hi nurse. I don't have celiac disease and in fact my symptoms are not those most celiacs have. I do have hypothyroid disease, and reactive hypoglycemia, and EDS, I was diagnosed with CFS and FMS.

There is some misinformation in this article. For example, the blood test for celiac is known to give false negatives: the "gold standard" is an intestinal biopsy, which is invasive, and it will only work if the person is eating gluten at the time.

Not all, but many. Basically, the "land bridge" theory presupposes that ancient ancestors of native people were unable to make boats, and had only the simplest ideas and tools. It assumes that our ancient ancestors ad no imagination, no technology, no sense of daring or exploration. We think that's stupid and racist.
