And they definitely don’t give a fuck about abortion as sin once it’s somebody THEY care about.

They’d like us all to submit to reproductive tyranny, k? Like as if it’s so hard, geez.

I’m also fucking sick of this being framed as a MORAL issue when it’s CLEARLY A MEDICAL ISSUE. Comprehensive women’s health and all that.

Unlimited sexual access and punishment for being a temptation.

Because it isn’t a moral issue, it is only to a bunch of fucking morons being manipulated into thinking this wedge issue is important. They don’t even know why, because they certainly don’t care about the well being of the kids or the mother after birth.

This was my first thought on this. Like...Guys, are you even LISTENING TO YOURSELVES.

I was thinking the same thing. They need to be careful of what they wish for, because there are pro forced birth states that require doctors to lie to patients seeking abortion and tell them all sorts of things that are not based in science like making abortion seem more dangerous than it is. If a state can’t force a…

This is what I was thinking. The SC may be anti-abortion rights, but it would still be a stretch for them so say that CPC’s have MORE freedom of speech rights then actual clinics.
Then again I’m applying basic logic to an issue where it’s most lacking, so who knows. :-/

I just dont see the need for abortion, its common knowledge that that the female body has ways to shut down pregnancy from happening if they dont want pregnancy.

I was wondering if this could backfire spectacularly, and I’m glad to see it could.

Fun fact, Slate has an article up on the lawsuit which indicates that a) the verdict is likely to go against California on free-speech grounds (Kennedy would be a swing vote and tends to side on free-speech for cases like this) but b) this would also provide a standard of free-speech ruling (i.e. that a state can’t…

The picture accompanying this article is of a center in the Bronx that is literally right across the street from the Planned Parenthood where I work. We don’t have a sign, and they intentionally use this signage to trick patients trying to get to PP, especially patients who may not be fluent in English.

This is so fucked up.

Nah, I can to a degree. Sometimes we hide the ugliest parts of ourselves from those closest to us. That being said I’m thinking she heard the whispers and chalked it up to gossip. Probably never bothered asking Louis outright for fear of his answer. Which is pretty much the same thing as knowing. Willful ignorance is…

Because he’s still seen as a draw even though his critical performances are rotten these days and the box office dropping like a stone. That’s aside from being a shitty human being.

I’ve been in and out of crippling depression this year. I’m waiting for my customary holiday season blues to show up. :/

I’m just emotionally exhausted and need to share. We have family members living with us, one of whom is dying. The spouse is driving me nuts; granted, they* are probably being driven nuts by watching their spouse die. I love them. I get it. They need someone to talk to, but I can’t always be that person. They’ve taken…

I know what you mean about people downplaying depression. Sometimes I feel, even at my lowest moments, that it really ISN’T that bad, that I just need to “get a grip.” I was told that by an immediate family member a few weeks ago. It feels damaging as fuck.

Realized recently that I very probably have been depressed for a good portion of this year! Which seems to be one of those things I can really only recognize in hindsight. I think, on the whole, there’s just been too much going on for my brain to handle, on top of working so hard at getting better at managing my…

I got into medical school!!! But when I went for interview, I saw the tv was on in the lobby while they were giving us a tour and it was turned to fox news ((the school is in a southern state). As someone who was raised and currently lives in NYC, I feel like it might be hard for me to adjust to my new environment.
