Yes, the hyper-precaution around pregnancy goes hand-in-hand with the culture of personal responsibility of pregnancy outcomes. We know to do x/y/z and avoid p/q/r when pregnant, so any miscarriage or stillbirth or abnormality must be your fault. It’s the same old victim-blaming “what did you do to cause this?”…

It’s also insane to me how many otherwise intelligent, reasonable women are worried the vaccine will mess up their cycles and don’t bother doing enough research to realise that’s a risk with ANY vaccine, not just the covid shot, and so fucking what? It’s not a big deal. Your cycle goes out of whack once and then gets…

It’s fairly common for White women married to Black men to feel overly comfortable disrespecting other Black folk, especially when they’re convinced that this marriage is “proof” that they’re not racist. (And if said Black husbands/boyfriends are themselves antiBlack, they’re not going to call out bad behavior because…

Have you ever stopped to ask yourself why you believe that feeding people or entertaining people, both of which are labor, are not worthy of real compensation? Have you possibly subscribed to the theory that women are there to feed people, so it’s not labor but something they owe you? Maybe you have swallowed the idea…

Mmm, I might’ve fully agreed with you if I didn’t know Yaya DaCosta existed somewhere in that Hollywood universe.

I love Jackie Aina – I think she’s beautiful, smart, and talented, and I’ve commented here many times when people ask about beauty gurus and Youtubers to follow. But this outfit ... it doesn’t do it for me. (Though it might just be this photo. On her Instagram it was a really cute little Barbie moment, but here it…

Fuck ‘em and blacklist them from any sort of healthcare job.

Like no time before, the years of the Trump presidency gave us a really good understanding of the degree to which American society was filled with horrible, deeply selfish people. The pandemic upped the stakes and showed just how much worse it really is.

What’s sadder?

The fact that anyone could get upset about a comedian’s divorce in this day and age, with the sheer amount of actual things to be upset about, is crazy to me.

Excuse me but how exactly am I meant to derive happiness from my existence if not via attaching my feelings to the actions of rich people I don’t know?

Re: John Mulaney

And then they can pair her up with Alice, than Sophie, than Tess. It’s a game of Musical Gigi.

Yeah, that doesn’t sound like a problem to me either. If I was looking for a partner, these would be among the things I’d look for too (that and smart, kind, and smells good).

Funny, not into social media, and likes nature is something incel wants?

Isn’t her stance that she’s “vaccine-hesitant” and a low-vaccine family? Essentially just anti-vaxx dogwhistles, the basic equivalent of “just asking questions” while continuing to promote the conspiracy theories.

She’s an antivaxxer though. So, no.

Really? No mention that she’s using her neuroscience degree to push snake oil caffeine pills to unlock your brain power, or has had a bad history of anti-vaxx sentiments?

The best thing for me about Rosie O’Donnell as Carrie is that she felt more like a real (queer) person than most of the current cast (and most of the cast of the original series). Which sometimes made it seem like she was on a different show from her scene partners—one that isn’t a glamorous soap opera—but that didn’t…
