Doctors Are Now Saying That Menstrual Cramps Can Be as Painful as Having a Heart Attack

Finally people are starting to listen to what women have been saying all along.

And in other news, water is wet

[onlyblackgirl]

Not like women have been telling y'all this since the beginning of time or anything.

[frenchswissborder]

I mean, yeah, at one point three years ago I was curled up in a fetal position literally screaming/crying/gasping for breath on my bed in my dorm room, so my response to this headline is basically, “No shit.”

[phiralovesloki]

No wonder women are so likely to ignore heart disease/attack symptoms. If something isn’t as bad as my cramps, I figure it can’t be that bad.

[akiameokami]

THAT LAST COMMENT

[thatsyawholethanghuh-deactivate]

!!!!!

[blackmagecat]

No seriously. There aren’t enough people who understand how important that last comment is. I lost my right kidney four years ago because of “if something isn’t as bad as my cramps, I figure it can’t be that bad.”

My. Fucking. Kidney.

Don’t force people with periods to internalize and silence themselves when they have cramps!

[kyidyl]

Can confirm “can’t be that bad because period”.  I had a kidney stone and it took me like 2-3 days to realize it wasn’t my period because it basically felt like that.  Pain is normal for women (and other people with a uterus), it’s part of being a woman, and so we’re much less likely to know when the pain we’re having is bad because we deal with so much of it some much more often than men do.  Pain is not always a “something is wrong” indicator for us.  

[flyonthewallmedstudent]

jesus. I never thought of it that way.

[homotology]

Every woman rebloging this

[fractiousrvt]

My mom said that her cramps were equivalent to when she was 7cm dilated during labor.

My cramps have always been significantly worse than my mom’s. I compare all other pains I have to my period cramps and because most pain doesn’t have me on the floor crying and vomiting I tend to ignore it.

I almost ignored my appendicitis because the pain from that couldn’t hold a candle to my cramps.

Who wants to guess how many bags of peaches are in my dad’s freezer?

[autumngracy]

The answer is:

Too fucking many

This is gonna make … a lot of jam …….

[autumngracy]

So, I managed to fit all but one big bowl of peaches into the two stock pots …

[autumngracy]

An hour and a half later, here they are simmering away …

How long is it gonna take to reduce them to jam, you ask?? Fuck if I know at this size lmao

[autumngracy]

In case you were wondering, it is, in fact, longer than 5 hours, as I am still stirring this jam over the oven :) :) :)

Oh and also there was another large bowl of peaches in the other fridge that I did not see until later, so I did not in fact fit ALL the peaches into the stock pots

On a brighter note, the whole house smells like a Victorian Christmas dinner

[autumngracy]

Hello again friends, it is currently REAL JAMMING TIME and I have been in stirring hell for seven hours

Went through two whole containers of pectin and a bunch of cornstarch already and things are looking just PEACHY

[autumngracy]

So, uh, the first stock pot alone yielded 272 ounces, so I … may have accidentally made about 68 8oz jars of jam …… and I only had 36 jars …

Guess I’m going back to the store tomorrow … and going to have to join the local farmers market to sell them …

Anyway, TEN CONTINUOUS HOURS OF WORK LATER, here I am at around 3am sealing my first batch of jars … (entire other stock pot of jam lurks ominously in the background)

God, it’s like when you overestimate how much pasta you’re gonna end up with, only 300% worse

[autumngracy]

So I woke up today after sleeping like a log to fibd my dad had already gone back to the store (which is like 30 min away) and gotten me more jars because he saw that I needed them

As you can see one of those pachages is the wrong size jar (4oz) so we’ll see if I can fit all the jam into these suckers (plus the two 8oz ones I had leftover)

My dad also put all the jars of jam in the fridge, although since they were all properly sealed (aw yeah) was totally unnecessary lol

He said he accidentally dropped one on the way to the fridge but I checked and it amazingly A) didn’t break, and B) remained properly sealed, so hats off to Ball corp, and also me I guess

[autumngracy]

Update: WE BE JAMMIN’

Spices I used for this recipe:

-Cinnamon

-Nutmeg

-Ginger

-Allspice

-Vanilla Extract

The combination worked out very well!

Gotta can the rest of it after I eat tho :P

[autumngracy]

So, I FINALLY managed to can all the jam, except for like … 6 oz of it, so I made shortbread cookies to use that with ;)

Altogether I did end up with 72 jars of jam, 12 of which are the 4oz size though. What the fuck am I gonna do with all this jam, jesus christ

Anyway, thanks for coming to my jam-filled TED talk guys, take care

[maximumgayce]

send me some jam op

That was a wild goddamn ride

god this was worth the read

[geekandmisandry]

My boyfriend just woke up, mostly still asleep and told me “don’t worry, it’s getting better” in a heavy, American accent, which is unusual for an Australian man.

“Why are you American?” I asked, to which I got:

“Sorry, it’s getting better” in a stereotypical posh English accent.

“Why are you English?” I asked, amused.

“What is he normally?” He managed to ask.

“He? You’re not anyone else, you’re you.”

“Ugh, me” was the last thing he said, in a right proper Aussie accent before he fell back into proper sleep.

[neverblogidly]

Bitch just thwarted a ghost possession by judging his accents

[wideopenhighway]

My boyfriend would be gettin’ hit with the baseball bat beside our bed if he ever woke up and said, “What is he normally?” about himself.

[geekandmisandry]

Then you would NOT have liked the time he pointed to a corner of our room while he was sleeping and said “they share a dimension with Earth and they take cats to eat them”.

[tharook]

I absolutely do not like that.

’90s Teenagers in Their Bedrooms, Adrienne Salinger 

In 1995, artist Adrienne Salinger wanted to depict the authentic lives of young people in ‘90s America — a contrast to the perfect Beverly Hills 90210 types portrayed in the media. She photographed teens in the most intimate space of all: their bedrooms.
