Yeah! It’s a new frontier with legalization in a lot of places - the tone of the convo now! Def similarities with any “adult use” product, but I’m interested in destigmatization, too (bc of its ongoing benefits we are always discovering) without promoting teen use, etc.

I decided that instead of spending my time writing tonight I am going to learn the dance break choreography from Britney's I'm a Slave 4 U and I promise it'll be just as good of use as my time

They were pregnant. Then doctors found cancer. 4 women on their rare diagnoses.

Kat Timpf's "unconventional birth announcement" revealed that she was diagnosed with breast cancer just hours before giving birth. These moms have similar stories.

I'm rewatching Vanderpump Rules from the beginning with my boyfriend (who has never seen it) and I can't fucking believe we all thought Stassi was one of the villains back then????
