  • They dropped these in my mother in law's suburban neighborhood. In her back yard. With no warning. My dog found and ate one, so it had me googling what the hell my dog had just eaten and wondering if she was going to die. Luckily we didn't have any toddlers playing in the back yard.

  • US women are being jailed for having miscarriages -BBC 2021
  • They arrested an addict whose drug use may have led to a miscarriage, or who may have just had a miscarriage completely unrelated to the drug use, or a mixture of multiple issues.

    There is no difference between this and obesity, alcohol, smoking, or poor diet. Obesity has a voluntary aspect to it, and increases your chances of miscarriage. Eating non-nutritious foods, micro plastics, not taking prenatal vitamins can all contribute to miscarriage. Getting into a car accident while voluntarily driving while pregnant, staying with a violent husband who beats you while pregnant... I mean where do you draw the line at making the pregnant woman 100% responsible for anything that happens while she is pregnant?

  • Frozen embryos are “children,” according to Alabama’s Supreme Court
  • Even before this I would get really pissed when people casually said "It will happen when the time is right. God has a plan, though it isn't one we understand." In Alabama I was recently at the dentist, getting my teeth cleaned to the tune of religious music, hearing the hygienist say this bullshit to me.

  • Frozen embryos are “children,” according to Alabama’s Supreme Court
  • No the religious zealots here do not. School coaches require prayer before practices and games, same sex couples get banned from prom, kids at school get tricked into going to fun after school events that turn out to actually be evangelism stunts. A lot of applications to educational programs, gymnastics programs, and jobs ask about "leadership" which is code for experience as a church deacon or active evangelist.

  • I called all the local PCPs today. One entire hospital system doesn't accept my insurance (Cigna) due to price negotiations. All the others don't have new patient appointments until December. So I guess in about 11 months, I can find out if I'm healthy!

  • Goodbye Non-KISS Appliances
  • I was astounded at how many refrigerators were described as junk when reading about the different new options available. Repairmen on YouTube were like "Avoid Samsung, Whirlpool, Frigidaire, LG, Midea, ..." Listing almost every brand.

  • Oklahoma Senate candidate: Parents who use IVF are “waging an assault against God”
  • I think you are blowing these findings out of proportion. Having a baby in any way comes with a degree of these health risks, and IVF babies are a bit higher. Doesn't mean no one should have IVF babies, just as it doesn't mean no one should have naturally conceived babies. Everything in life comes with risks.
