I don’t have data to support this, but my assumption is that oxycodone in both its immediate-release tablet form (Roxicodone) and its extended-release tablet form (OxyContin) are kept because of cancer and hospice patients. I do know that hospice patiients get oxyxodone as an oral solution when they are near the end…

You are right to feel that way.. the current state of things around here is not encouraging whatsoever, and in fact, feels more like the Worst Nightmare From Hell in All Eternity.

Thanks. With all the regressive shit going on, especially the new GOP move for a 6-week abortion ban, it feels like there just aren’t’ enough voices. I’ve been signing a lot of petitions from Daily Kos, and I have been frequently calling and writing all of my reps (state government, too) and I feel like it’s…

The cost of treatment is punitive and is in and of itself an effective deterrent for seeking treatment. The fact that it is court-ordered and still that high is disgusting and the opposite of a solution.

As a white person who was addicted to crack for 3 years, I concur.

Something something sanctity of life something something...

I would pay good money for that opportunity. Lucky duck.

Make men prove that they need Viagra only for procreation and also have a 48 hour waiting period; be forced to have an ultrasound shoved up their anus and get permission from their wife (they of course must be married); and of course his employer can object for “moral reasons” covering Viagra..

A friend had an anencephalic fetus which she needed to terminate. It was tragic. And necessary.

I hope you’re right. As a pregnant woman, this makes me fucking irate. Leave women the fuck alone. This is a very personal thing.

Indeed, I was being hyperbolically sarcastic. But please tell me what you saw in my comment history would lead you to believe I would actually advocate for that. I fought for abortion rights in Nova Scotia in the early 90s, and would do so again in a second.

Just another reminder that they don’t take mental heath seriously. >:(

The good news is that because this isn’t a budget bill, it’s subject to the legislative filibuster.

Republican assholes, hi. Since you seem to care about abortion so so so so so much, and believe that all women who don’t want to get pregnant, but get pregnant anyway, are all “sluts”, here’s how you stop them. MAKE IT ILLEGAL FOR MEN TO EJACULATE unless both man and woman are trying to make a baby. Since you guys are…

Screw your fucking heartbeat. Mice have heartbeats and they’re cuter and more sentient than your 6-week-old parasitic shrimp and you can legally kill them if they invade your space. Hearts are not what make humans special. This bill is bullshit as far as science, logic, and morality are concerned. It’s simply evil.

So physical, but not psychological, danger counts? Because as a bipolar person who knows without a doubt that another pregnancy and subsequent bout of postpartum depression would kill me, fuck all those guys. Just...fuck this.

Six weeks?! That’s MURDER, Y’ALLS! I demand a six second abortion law. If you can get an abortion within six seconds of conception, happy babykilling to you. If not, TOO BAD. Signed, Women-loving Republicans of ‘Murica.

I say the Dems take this up a notch next time they are in power and ban divorce, pre-marital sex, viagra and force men to wear chastity belts.

What unnerves me most, is that at one point in my life I thought things like this would never happen. Under this administration I don’t have any sense of comfort that unconstitutional directives will not take place.

Susan Collins, don’t fail us now.
