She's a perfect example of someone like Ben Carson who is very good as a specialist in a particular field, but thinks that means they're knowledgable across the board.

Who says she's a good specialist? Cuba Gooding Jr. Hasn't played her in a movie yet

I'm not sure what the context of that tweet was. It reads to me that Bialik is saying she doesn't agree with thesis that babies that have to be birthed by C-section should never have been conceived. What am I missing?

I never paid attention to Trump's inane soundbytes, but I guess that's the context this twitter chain is meant to be read in.

I still think Bialik sucks and I'm not trying to defend her. Was more trying to understand the context as I had to read the tweet multiple times.

It's not though, media executives have different brains from normal people. Executive logic goes like this:

Popular sitcom about smart people has actress that played smart person, there for is good fit for show for smart people. Bing bong simple.

Lmao can't wait for Oz's dirt to get uncovered. What do you think? Is he on the Epstein flight logs? Does he actively advocate for vivisection? Are they going to find out some of his branded horseshit gives people cancer? The mind boggles at the possibilities given the dirt we've seen so far.

Don't look at it as a bad thing, look at it as a prime opportunity for schadenfreude at the expense of rich people.

It's kind of her thing to be like, "I am not anti-vax. I promise. Also, I totally agree with some of their points."

She added, “The truth is, I delayed vaccinations for reasons that you don’t necessarily get to know about simply because you follow me on social media…. As of today, my children may not have had every one of the vaccinations that your children have, but my children are vaccinated.” Bialik then detailed her beliefs that children receive “way too many vaccines in this country” and that “the medical community often operate[s] from a place of fear in order to make money.” Still, she found it “very disturbing” that some people would not be vaccinated against COVID-19.

Uh no in fact this is the literal opposite of "being vaccinated" if your children have not had all the vaccines children normally get, Mayim.

I got some Dr. Oz dirt. Well, it's actually dirt on Dr. Mustafa Oz, his father.

Basically, Dr. Oz's father killed my great grandfather.

While the elder Oz was a surgeon in Delaware, he operated on my great grandfather and (according to my dad's family) totally botched it. The last time his family saw him alive, he was barely conscious and had his tongue sticking out, while the good doctor swore up and down that this was a completely normal reaction and that he'd be just fine. So everyone went home, and as soon as they got through the door they got a phone call telling them everything was very much not fine. He was dead before they could get back to the hospital. My dad's family pretty much blamed Dr. Oz's dad for not only the surgery, which at the very least didn't help him, but for giving them a false impression of his health and convincing them to leave, preventing them from being with him in his final moments.

Also, a few days before this my grandmother was with her father-in-law when Dr. Oz's dad came by the hospital room to check his charts. She asked the doctor an innocuous question about her father-in-law's treatment. He asked to speak with her in the hallway, and then got very nasty, berating her for daring to ask him a question in front of his patient. She's pretty sure her being a woman had something to do with it.

Anyway, at least Mike Richards' dad didn't kill any of my family members and yell at my grandmother for asking him a question out-of-turn.
