In news that has abruptly answered every question regarding the psychosis exhibited by presidential hopeful, Robert F. Kennedy: A worm lived rent-free in his brain for a time. Then, after missing no meals, it died there.

For the last week, The Idea Of You discourse has kept the girlies in a vice grip. As it happens, a startling number of people seem to relish a May December romance that begins at Coachella, and I think that’s just swell. However, the only meet-cute at that bonafide brand activation in the desert that I care about was that of Real Housewife of New Jersey Teresa Giudice and Taylor Swift. Real ones will remember that the former's husband, Louie Ruelas, posted this photo on Instagram in April, writing... Читать дальше...

One year ago, a Texas woman was killed by her partner—who had a prior record of domestic violence—for getting an abortion. Before that, in the summer of 2022, a Missouri man was sentenced to life in prison for murdering his wife in 2019; before she went missing, she’d searched on her cell phone, “What to do if your husband is upset you are pregnant.” Homicide, often by an intimate partner, is the leading cause of death for pregnant people, and abusive situations are likely to escalate when someone becomes pregnant.

As security walks over to escort her out, Plaume says "Sorry about that" while Swisher responds, "It's OK, it's happened at every... Читать дальше...

Survivors, doctors, and advocates traveled to Baton Rouge, Louisiana on Tuesday to lay bare their wounds and beg legislators to add a rape and incest exception for children under 17 to the state’s near-total abortion ban.

Another week, another Republican state lawmaker caught proudly saying something disgusting—this time, though, the lawmaker killed two birds with one stone and was gross about both abortion and child marriage all in the same breath. In a video shared last week that’s since picked up steam, New Hampshire state Rep. Jess Edwards said that a bill to ban marriage for individuals under 18 would increase the demand for abortion. (??) "If we continually restrict the freedom of marriage as a legitimate social option... Читать дальше...

In the fall of 2022, Gisele Bündchen and Mr. Gisele Bündchen (Tom Brady) announced their separation and divorce. Brady then spent that Christmas miserable and alone, while she cozied up with her hot jiu-jitsu teacher, who, as of February, she's now officially dating. Fast forward to Sunday when Netflix hosted The Roast of Tom Brady—which, agreeing to a roast of yourself might be the most egotistical thing a man can do second to hosting a podcast. Unsurprisingly,  his divorce took center stage. For Bündchen... Читать дальше...
