Just look up the photograph of Gerri Santoro and read her story. That is what they want to bring us back to. If I had it all to do over again, I’d go to med school, become a gynecological surgeon, and perform abortions. In my next life, maybe. This is a service that women NEED.

That’s about the size of it. Abortions won’t stop just because clinics close. They will just become incredibly unsafe, and women will die or be maimed as they attempt to terminate these unwanted pregnancies. The well-to-do will always be able to get their D&Cs, but the poor and desperate are the ones who will suffer.

When Roe vs Wade led to the legalization of abortion, I remember my mom - a relatively apolitical woman - practically weeping with joy. She’d had me very young, and I’m sure she toyed with the idea of abortion - but it was illegal and dangerous. How dangerous? As a high school student, she’d driven a girlfriend across…

“Look, making them illegal doesn’t mean people who want them won’t just get them illegally.” -guns or abortions?

This really goes to show that you’re either pro-choice, or you’re pro-illegal/unsafe abortion. I read that somewhere (possibly from another Jezebel commenter) and it has stuck with me ever since.

And again, if you want to help keep abortion safe and legal in Texas:

Agreed. It’s really important for moments like this, when a huge celebrity can be a human being, with all of the complex emotions the rest of us have. She wisely used her platform to share the sentiment with her audience and make some big statements without preaching. This was a good 12 minutes, and I sobbed the whole…

She didn’t call any of the victims “rebel hearts”, so I’m calling this a win. This is Madonna, though, so yeah. Tomorrow, the teeter-totter may swing down again.

This was heart felt and genuine. <3

I have my ups and downs when it comes to Madonna. This is a big up.

WHAT! i already liked you for smart input on beauty products, this is blowing my mind.

RESPECT.

Ba ha ha. YES I DO. And it makes noises and the head-mounted blaster canons light up! Toys R Us doesn’t seem to have that one anymore — it was around a hundred bucks or so there — but there’s ONE on Amazon for a whopping $350. :( However...ToysRUs does now have a much smaller (around 10”) REMOTE CONTROL ONE THAT…

You should post this on every depressing story because this just made my day.

Wait. Hold the phone. Stop. Do you have an imperial AT-AT in your living room? I ALREADY THOUGHT YOU WERE SUPER COOL NOW YOU’RE BLOWING MY MIND.

My parrot, who is valiantly trying to learn to whistle this tune, heartily approves.

Drinking Stone Delicious IPA, which was delicious last night when I was a bit stoned, but not feeling it tonight. Thinking of going to the corner liquor store for some Sauvignon Blanc.

oh wow thats really cool and yeah they do make bank! I really liked the few ER clincals I had, and was leaning towards getting into that area. We shall see though, I sitll have a little while!

I suspect he was an abandoned or lost pet because he was always so friendly from day one. We are heavily invested in numerous cinnamon-smelling natural anti-catpiss formulations. He’s a sweetheart with some bad habits. We don’t give a fuck. Trap-neuter-release- (adopt when you’re down to the last one). That’s my…

What a beauty. I am so sorry for your loss. You gave Kiki a great home and all of the love in the world, and she will always be a part of you.
