I’m sure it’s not her name, but I’m going with Aunt Lydia.

FMLA only applies to businesses with 50 or more permanent employees, so if this is a smaller business they do not have to follow FMLA policies. It’s yet another problem with US family leave practices.

As people said before this whole began, this kind of laws will cost lives. Abortions will still happen, but WAY RISKIER outside of clinics.
Women won’t go to doctors because they will be afraid, doctors won’t do certain procedures because they will be afraid.
If complications are...and there are a lot that can happen,…

I really wish people would take the “A-word” out of the discussion and phrase it as a medical issue: do you really want the government to have the ability to prosecute you based on safe medical care you can choose to receive from your licensed doctor?

Correct. I am finally, hopefully, fingers crossed pregnant. On calling my OB for the first scan, let them know I am 0 weeks and 1 day pregnant.

The Florida supreme court could drop a ruling at any moment that would prevent me from getting life-saving care should I need it; so I need every single day in that legally…

This is the only REASONABLE outcome. The prosecutor only went after her because she was Black. The nurse who reported her should not only be prosecuted, she should lose her license permanently. She has a complete lack of ethics as well as sympathy.

This isn’t from her book. It’s from a book about the Oscars. 

This is just a guess because there’s absolutely no information out there that could make me come up with this answer, but I’m going to speculate that somebody wrote a book about the Oscar experience, and as an Oscar winner, Sally Field was interviewed about it and talked about her Oscar experience. Again, this is just…

I stock up on snacks and pantry items from our local Asian market to give as last-minute gifts. Most of my friends and family are either too intimidated or too busy to shop the Asian markets, so I like curating my time-tested favorite products for them to try. (EVERYONE *I’d guess* loves those 3-in-1 packets of…

This is the type of reporting that you just cannot find anywhere else. I find this information so invaluable, the possible loss of this site sparked severe depression. Welcome back, excellent reporting, Kylie. Thank you all for adding so much to the lives of the nameless women of this country.

Take the coding classes anyway. Use it as an opportunity to network and start talking to women in tech. We need more people to talk about the STEM career drop off for women.

“would a bunch of 18th-century white guys agree with it or not?”

what you’re describing is a well known aspect of American legal realism; namely, that judges decide how they will judge on a given case before exploring historical analogs or other sorts of legal documentation. the judges then pick and choose those historical cases that support their interpretation of the current case…

I think you have to look to George to be the leader of that group.  Kawhi is too timid and the other two are as self-centered a pair as you’ll find in the league.

emotionally raw, tempestuous falling-out of this former dynamic duo which has spent the last decade dominating the league together.

Having watch Harden play consecutive nights last year against the Celtics, I believe he has talent but saw long spans of time where he basically cried about his poor performance to anyone sympathetic. A guy who goes that cold for entire games isn’t worth the hassle long-term.

This is very much a trojan horse bill. As a victim of one, take note that whenever a bill’s name sounds too good to be true, it likely is - and actually with nefarious intent. I recommend contacting your senator if they’re backing this bill, especially when you realized that many congress people DON’T READ OR READ…

I ate here a few days ago too and I’m sorry about your friend. I think about those cast iron pans and hope you are doing okay.

Love the title of this article!
