i absolutely do not agree with recording strangers in public and allowing the internet to doxx them and ruin their lives. that being said, i do find the CEO/HR lady cheating drama very funny, because i am a bad person. two things can be true

My favorite part of this interview was when Varney asks Dr. Oz if 11 million people will lose their health insurance, and Oz says no, because "the numbers are often offered by economists who look at numbers." He then adds, "This is really a psychology question." OK!

For the past year, I've been talking to dancers fighting for better workplace protections for pregnancy and parenting. It's a fight experts say is "unprecedented" due to long-standing cultural and structural challenges within ballet. And it's being led by artists themselves.

Out now for ELLE:

How Ballet Is Fighting for Dancer Pregnancy Rights

“We’re told we should do it ‘for the love of the art form,’ but we still have bills to pay and families to raise.”
