This story had me reliving all the doctor who told me that it was normal to have irregular cycles and not to worry. It wasn't until we started trying to have kids that I learned the importance of my period as a vital sign, something I wish I had known in my 20s

Devastating news about polygon today. So sorry for the whole staff, but also for us readers. No other gaming site has quite the same depth, fun and funkiness of polygon kotaku.com/polygon-sold...
