In news that I expect will thrill my comedy-loving colleagues, comedy cop show Brooklyn Nine-Nine has been rescued…
I know fashion rules have changed or whatever but I still will not, under any circumstance, wear white shoes after labor day because of Kathleen Turner.
The babadook is a great movie I never need to watch again. Along with goodnight mommy. Omg so so so stressful!
Deep in our nation’s capital, Mike Pence and his mother/wife/partner in God’s warm light, Karen, are standing in…
Those are the worst. I had one in between my two sons, after also having a miscarriage before my first. When you’re actively trying and you get that + only to find out you aren’t pregnant anymore is quite the mind fuck. Good luck!!
If you were trying, I’m sorry for your loss :[
I had the same thing happen.
I saw Goodnight Movie at the SIFF when I was about 5 months pregnant hoping for a good supernatural horror movie. Nope. Fuck that movie. I was not prepared for that shit.
Sigh...I know, I know, but I love the play and I was curious. There were some good performances, but of course he Tyler Perryfied it by adding some weird, unnecessary “down-low” storyline (with AIDS as the punishment, of course) and had the same character who told a nice story about losing her virginity be the one…
I think people would be shocked at how many women are “pregnant” before the body rejects the cells extremely early on - like you said, before some people even realize they’re pregnant. My husband and I are actively trying to conceive, and just last month I got a couple strongly positive at-home tests a few days before…
I was really pissed off at Tyler Perry’s movie version of “For Colored Girls...” when they had this present-day storyline where a young woman had a friggin illegal abortion in someone’s goddamn house, and I think she paid like $200 for it. For an illegal abortion, in, like 2012 (or whatever year it was), done by a…
Many spontaneous abortions aka miscarriages go unrecognised if they occur before women know they are pregnant, typically in the first 4-5 weeks before ultrasound can pick up the pregnancy. Nature can do this without damage to your body or soul as the pro-lifers would like us to believe. If you had no reason to get a…
The weirdest depiction of abortion I’ve ever seen was in a crime movie from the 60s. A teenage girl had an abortion on a kitchen table. The camera only showed various objects on the table (knitting needles and something that looked like salad tonges), everything else was off-screen. That somehow left the girl brain-dam…
I think this also just shows how very uninformed people, in general, are in regards to the whole female anatomy, and the menstrual/pregnancy processes.
I just saw it last night!
Additions:
Spoiler for a thirty-eight-year-old movie: Friday the 13th needs to be on here. I would actually bump Psycho off the list for it. Also, Dark Water should be on there. I happened to watch the original version on the first anniversary of my mom’s death. Totally accidental timing. Do not recommend that combo.
Everyone go see Tully.
I flash back on her incredible delivery of that response to Joan’s compliment of her hair all the time: “Thank you. It’s genetic and unattainable.”
