We’re giving the southwest chicken a try tonight! It looks delicious! We added a lil bell pepper/onion bc we love them veggies in this house.

Ohhh my goodness! Please tell me how you end up liking it! Be sure to season it generously- I find the original recipe is just a little lacking in that area!

What is OTC birth control and what does the approval mean? 0:

On the ground level, this means that now there is an infinitely more accessible, and less invasive, means of obtaining hormonal birth control for AFaB's in the US!

The BC that was approved is a generic of the mini-pill and simply uses only Progestin. It is the easiest one to manage. It is expected to be in stores in early 2024 - so, soon!!! We all benefit greatly from this in a lot of ways.

This is a very positive move during a time where reproductive rights are actively under fire. The FDA is giving the OK for anyone of reproductive age to obtain, which is huge, because teenagers can keep themselves safe without interference, or even test it out to see if it is the right option for them before seeking expensive medical advice. Historically, the risk of unintended pregnancies goes down dramatically when Hormonal BC is widely available.

My dad grilled me and judged me hard when I asked my mom about birth control around age 12/13. It made me feel disgusting, like I was doing something wrong, and I cried when he sternly asked if I was planning on having sex. I was seeking the pill because I had been experiencing menorrhagia since the age of 9, lol. I know that my experience is not universal, but there are more people out there who have absolutely been shamed for seeking hormonal BC, or even, shamed out of obtaining hormonal BC by their family. Doctors also have the capacity to inappropriately practice bias against allowing patients to obtain birth control, like when I faced heavy resistance from my first OB/GYN.

I am excited to see a brighter future for young people seeking reproductive care early enough in life to understand it, and take steps to use these tools to mitigate a diverse array of health and safety risks that often arise for them. Birth Control can prevent and manage a lot more conditions than just an unwanted pregnancy, after all!

Happy birthday!

@savior-of-the-dreaming-dragons OUGH THANK YOU!!!!!!

casey's pride is def damaged by asking mikey for a hug .. but it's worth it

imagine you need to get away from the house and your responsibilities for a hot second and there's this bus driver/tour guide you meet and he invites you on a one-time big sightseeing trip (what the bus driver is telling himself. don't worry about that). and at first you think it's like a date and he's into you but this dries up maybe half a day in when the sightseeing goes wrong and he starts angsting about his dead girlfriend. anyway the trip gets extended and he's still the worst most disappointing tour guide in the world so you do the emotional equivalent of poking at him with a stick and asking what the hell is wrong with him. bus driver relents and reveals that his whole family is dead and he's been trying to avoid thinking about it by being a bus driver. you listen to him as he talks about how nice his town was before it exploded and you suddenly realize that the bus driver is furiously grieving/homesick/depressed and you're like the only thing stopping him from driving off a cliff and into the sea. especially bc the next day you run into the mafia and the bus driver starts screaming at them to kill him. then he hugs an electric fence. and then he tells you to take the bus keys and leave him and screams at the mafia to kill him again. and like this is so obviously horrific but what can you do besides stay with him on more sightseeing trips and hope you're doing enough to keep him alive. bc one of the responsibilities you ducked from was your job of saving people and this stupid fucking bus driver is a person in need of saving so bad. even if he starts shutting down when he manages to catch that you're directly onto how unstable he is. anyway, on an unrelated note, ten and martha from hit tv show doctor who,

All of Young Justice has a running joke where they address each other with the softest, mushiest terms of endearment (and totally mean them as well) and it stuns the fuck out of the Batfam that Tim, the guy who wouldn't talk to anyone for a day after calling Bruce 'dad' out loud, is so willing to proclaim Anita his soulmate and call Bart the love of his life whenever he introduces him to anyone

DonnaMarthaRose underrated trio imo. Donna (37) looking at Rose (21) talking about getting married and settling down and Martha (23) talking about starting her 80 work week promptly is like "I need to take you two to the club right fucking now for your own health"

I can't lie, the thought of Tintin living long enough to experience the absolute insanity that was the 80's-90's (in regards to fashion and pop culture) absolutely tickles me. I can't decide if he'd love or hate Indiana Jones but I bet he would have THOUGHTS.

tintin has a bad habit of talking in the cinema

All of my Out of Touch Turts-day for easy comparison 💕

Dani and her Friends and the Hero Phantom who looks away

Dani smiled at her friend Waylon as both were imprisoned.

"Have no fear! My template will get us out!"

Croc:" You know we are in Arkham, right?"

Dani: " No fear... Wait, it started. Be careful."

The walls of Arkham Cell started to glow green as it started to go like a horror movie. Dani just pulled Waylon with her to the portal.

Waylon looked before were a massive werewolf and young men.

"Template, I knew you would save me!"

Danny just gave me one look: "You are grounded."

Dani: " Stupid Hero Template, won't do any fun! Come Waylon. I want to show you my room and then your new room!"

Waylon:" A Hero..." Dani: "Yeah, he is a hero, but I am well me. And he would never get angry at me!" Waylon said to himself, " It's not often a hero would save their villain's child. So it's kind of nice for her."

Danny looked at Wulf and said, " Thanks again. Make sure both are okay. I will have to talk with Batman about this."

Danny already had the excuse why he broke into Arkham.

Batman knows how Danny is feeling so no hard feelings. Just make sure he doesn't do criminal stuff
