This breaks my fucking heart. Let’s say it had taken this woman years to get pregnant. She’s finally pregnant with a much-wanted baby, and loses the pregnancy. She has to get pills to end the pregnancy and deal with the emotional fallout of that, and top of that has to EXPLAIN AND DEFEND HERSELF to this fuckwad of a…

“If God had wanted you to SEE he’d have fixed yer EYES!”

Honestly, though, I can see reason in that. Dogs sometimes bite people, even when the owners claim they’re super friendly and would never hurt a fly. A guy being scare of a dog is not totally unreasonable. A douchebag guy preventing a woman from getting medical care is unreasonable and cruel and should be a fireable…

For the ones in the back:

Note the price of the “Talking Machine”: $69.95. In 1902 that was like $2,000 today. That’s the price of a pretty nice A/V setup with a big flat-screen, an amp and some speakers. Back then it got you a very tinny voice on a 2 minute cylinder that you could play maybe 100 times before it wore out. Amazing what 116…

I once had to go get the morning after pill (thanks ambien sex...) anyways. We were in south Florida and when I went into the cvs to get it, the VERY kind female pharmacist went into the back to see if she could could find me the cheaper pill. Didn’t make me feel shitty and tried to save me a few bucks A+ employee. I…

Someone needs to start a pharmacy that is marketed around never hassling women about their prescriptions. Forget Walgreens, CVS, Meijer, etc., go to Jenny’s and you’ll never get any argument about your birth control, morning after, misoprostol, or anything else. I’m a guy and I’d get all my prescriptions filled there!…

You’re probably right that condoms will be next. Saw something yesterday (or maybe it was this morning) that birthrate in US is significantly down. Given that we’ve had such a population explosion for decades, it’s good to see the birthrate being down. But, the religious right will have a fit about this and any…

I always say this is part of the reason Uber got so big. For years, blacks, men especially, have had hard times flagging down taxis. They either blatantly pass you buy or act like they don’t want to drive to your neighborhood. And Uber comes along, the transaction is nearly seamless, so for me personally, I’ve never…

“I’m sorry, I’m not going to refill your glaucoma meds because I believe that life should be LIVED, not just seen”

This is ridiculous. If pharmacists don’t want to fill prescriptions, they need to find a different job. What’s next, refusing to sell condoms because it’s immoral to stop the sperm from fertilizing the egg? You might think that’s absurd, but that’s not so far off.

I just read about this earlier today on The Washington Post. Didn’t know about this aspect of Sears and kind of makes their filing for bankruptcy a bit more somber. Just as sad though, is that it quickly reminded me of the times of trying to educate some ppl who seem to have the mindset that blacks suddenly became…

What a good article. I didn’t know a lot of that history.

That was a terrifically illuminating article & interview. :)

I clicked on this article thinking, “Eh, I guess I will read this.” But it was truly fascinating.

The story of Julius Rosenwald is essential to understanding why US white supremacists have an equal hatred of Jewish business.

They’re taking their lead from the crooked racist orange santorum-covered enemy of the people. With him coating our government with his frothy fecal matter, it’s no wonder that racists feel empowered to attempt to spread their own santorum on others. 

Unabated deliberate racism. In their minds they are making America great again with a roll back to the pre-civil rights era of government. Black peoples right to vote still has to be renewed due to the voting rights act every 25 years. (Why is this even a thing?) Considering this fact, is it really surprising that …

“The seniors were so resolved. They said: ‘We’re going to vote. Nobody’s going to stop us,’” Brown told the AJC. “It wasn’t the first time someone has denied them or tried to prevent them from voting.”

They're not even doing this shit with a wink anymore.  Just blatant, out in the open fuckery.
