The farther we move from the time when women commonly died of botched back-alley abortions, the more people may think making abortion illegal wouldn’t be so bad.

How dare a candidate for the highest office in the land really focus on winning!

Look, I’m getting real sick of you women folk saying this every damn time that a man makes the smallest mention of a woman being bossy, or trying too hard, or needing to smile more. /s

Yeah sentences like this one just leap out at me. Oh no, she’s focused on doing the best job she can? What an awful trait.

Silicon Valley “big think” checklist:

I would also, happily, donate to the bourbon fund for the lady in the story. Because fucking hell life sucks so hard sometimes.

I didn’t see this right away and I called Dr. Hern’s office to ask how I could donate money directly to the practice. I had a fifteen-minute conversation with Dr. Hern himself. In addition to being a hero, he is a very humble and cool guy.
