I had to explain to an atheist who didn’t believe in abortions after the first trimester that amniocentesis and most testing will not have results until the second trimester and sometimes into the third. He was pro testing, but just couldn’t get the idea that amnio and similar tests are a first trimester thing. He did…

But the important question is who are the 12%? Most Americans don’t vote, and politicians, particularly on the national stage, are most likely acting based on numbers/research of potential voters. Low turnout means that what the population as a whole thinks doesn’t mean much to a politician in need of votes.

FIXED.

The problem is that it’s a low-priority issue for most potential voters, even if they say they’re pro-choice in some fashion (as most do). That means that it comes down to how politicians get pressured in their primaries, and the anti-choice fanatics have been much better at making sure that opposition to abortion…

I wonder if she got the idea from that domestic violence commercial where the woman calls 911 and pretends to order a pizza.

but please shhhhhhhhhhhh for at least until the end of Avenger’s theater run.

Well, there’s a big, fat wake-up call to anyone who doesn’t believe rape is a tool of war or that access to and control over one’s own reproductive care (including abortion) is a human right.

Omg we all need to go for drinks. I'm so glad I'm not alone haha.

I feel like I’m worried about annoying people or being demanding, so I try to act like I’m really breezy and cool. But, like you said, there are things that I want and that doesn’t make me a bad person!

But is it still okay to preferentially seek out white guys with dreadlocks hanging around behind the Gap when you’re trying to score some weed?

The ACLU makes an app called mobile justice so you can record police encounters and immediately send to the ACLU if they come at you all crazy. It also has info on your rights and how to deal with police. Download it! Police the police!

The thing I’m most outraged by is that she MISSED A PIECE!!! IS THIS NOT INCLUDED IN HAIRSTYLING 101???

“Fuck that, are you kidding me?” <—————— YES. THANK YOU. My exact response when I got engaged and started researched pricing for all of the venues I had put on a mental “consider for when we get engaged” list. At the end of the day I realized that the kind of bride I wanted to be was a MARRIED bride. That’s it. That…
