“I will never understand what is fierce, funny or feminist in creating a show that basically says the original actresses are too old to do a job they did 12 years ago.”

Holly Marie Combs just sounds bitter every time she brings up the show and honestly it’s tarnishing the original show for me. Let these girls live, they’re repping for young WOC. Charmed was great and it’s exciting it’s being rebooted for a new generation.
Oh for the love of god.
I will offend legions when I say-You missed nothing.
It’s weird, but this is a perennial issue with reboots. Fans of the original (and I guess actors in the original) always view the reboot as some kind of replacement (or even a desecration) of the original. This is true even if the original is still around and even if the original cast doesn’t have any interest in…
Meh... I’m looking forward to this? I never watched the original (BtVS forever!) and I enjoy women-centric entertainment by preference. If it is mostly non-problematic and fun I’ll be happy. Tho there is never that expectation.
Oh, that’s just brain distressingly horrible!!!! And to subject women to it in order to ensure “natural birth” without their consent???? Just disgustingly appalling!
I think my pelvis fused reading that. Jesus screaming Christ.
Searched this; read enough to understand. Medicine has some fucked up priorities, sometimes.
I shouldn’t have clicked, but I did. Childless at 35 is suddenly looking better than it did.
Every day I learn new and more horrifying facts - symphisiotomy? There is no God.
I think it’s more likely that they didn’t keep proper track of to whose custody they were paroling children. The story doesn’t confirm that any individual children were handed over to human traffickers, but the fact that HHS doesn’t know where the children are or if the people who took custody of them were actually…
A documentary from the PBS program “Frontline” said that the federal government has actually released some of the minors to human traffickers. As Sen. Portman told Frontline, “We’ve got these kids. They’re here. They’re living on our soil. And for us to just, you know, assume someone else is going to take care of them…
And here in Ireland the exit polls put the Abortion Referendum passing with roughly 68% of the vote in favour of repealing our 8th Amendment which essentially outlawed abortion while also putting the lives of women at risk seeing as even cancer treatments would be denied to a woman if she happened to be pregnant.
It’s…
The RTÉ exit poll has just been announced and it’s almost the same: 69.4% Yes with a 1.6% margin of error. I think we might have actually done this!! My feet are killing me from canvassing, my ears are ringing from the stuff that was shouted at me, my eyes are tired from crying, but I hope to sleep very well tomorrow…
Fuuuuuck yes Ireland you beauts!!!
I get choked up every time I see a picture of Savita Halappanavar. Her death was so horrific and so fucking pointless. I hope this brings her family some kind of closure.
Should add....still worried we should be wary of this and all polls.
Still shook.
