healthcare capitalism taken to it’s logical conclusion gets so fucking dark.

OK, I’ve been waiting all day for Jezebel to recognize that March 15th is only important because it’s Notorious RBG’s Birthday! Why oh why, do we get posts about The Bachelor, Kim K., and Mama June, but nothing about RBG?

The look(s) Charlize is giving that photog, though...if they could kill, dude would be a pile of ash. I bet if one of her hands were free, she’d whoop his ass.

Your euphemisms are nauseating. If you can’t even say the words period or menstruation you should not be commenting on an article about tampons. Yes, that time of the month where women bleed out of their vagina because their uterine lining is shedding.

Class warfare.

do not lump midwife assisted homebirths in with unassisted homebirths—they are totally different. I had a midwife-assisted homebirth and had the years of her experience and advanced medical training as well as all of her emergency equipment in my bedroom for the event. Freebirthers have none of those things. My kids

If you can find Butter, watch that. It's a small movie about butter sculpting and small town/state politics. It's pretty funny and she's great as an ambitious wife.

I don’t want to be pedantic, but this isn’t what the court said. The court refused to issue and injunction that would have allowed Kesha to record with other labels while the case works through the courts.

The point in my life where I feel so old I have absolutely no idea who this is someone change my bedpan please.

The Court is NOT on Dr. Luke’s “side.” The Judge merely applied the law to the facts. As an attorney one of the hardest things to deal with are bad facts. They are what they are and we do our best to construe them most favorably to our clients but ultimately Judges have no discretion to choose a “side” they like. It’s

The whole idea of “tips” that can help save your marriage is kind of fucked up. No tip can save a bad marriage, and no good marriage requires tips to save it.

I did not like the last episode of the X-Files, and I see Kumail didn’t either. I appreciate that tweet!

Banks are divorced from reality.

Here is my take on it. There are two kinds of “cheaters” — actual people who seek to cheat and deceive, and then people who are struggling with monogamy by living in a monogamy-dominant culture, and not knowing how to enter and communicate about wanting a non-monogamous relationship.

Not “ew.” A small study, but one that can be expanded to see if there are real benefits.

It’s believed that the bacteria from the vaginal canal are the important missing ingredient that C-section babies don’t get. Those bacteria are specific to the mother (it would probably be a bad idea to jam any old vaginal bacteria from a stranger onto your baby) and they are possibly affected by pregnancy and

Actually Jezebel you are kind of full of shit. This is a technique that comes out of more than a “boutique study.” NYU researchers have published and have been highlighted in more than one news source for the results of swabbing C-section born children in order to create the microbiome, e.g. gut flora, who diversity

Sounds like you have a lot of anger in you. Maybe you should just let it go.

If you don’t eat yer meat how can you have any money?!! You can’t have any money if you don’t eat yer meat!
