There are a lot of emotional and moral and ethical arguments to be made, which I’m not really interested in making. But from a purely financial standpoint, it’s cheaper for everyone if we support abortions, birth control and proper education than it is to support unprepared mother & child for years. Not much logical…

I’d love to see hear you opinions on lung cancer (from smoking or work place asbestos exposure), preventable heart attacks, broken limbs, or any of the other “irresponsible with X action and are complaining about it.”

I so agree - you know it’s always the women demanding sex in any relationship. plus women are paid more at their jobs than men, and it’s always those poor men who are responsible for buying those expensive birth control pills and remembering to take them. And men usually get stuck with the breast feeding and raising…

My best friend almost died due to complications from a d&c. She had excellent health insurance and fwiw they wanted the child. I cannot imagine being persuaded to carry a child to term with the HOPE that the baby you’ve likely formed an attachment over gestation finds a loving home. The fact that child birth is still…

Came here expecting a comment from someone who wants a means test before people can f*ck, did not leave disappointed.

Just your daily reminder that the party that hates paying for poor people insists that people have unwanted children. Because Murrica.

I used to work as an administrator at a health care center in the 80s, just after the Hyde amendment was enacted. I still remember watching women’s faces drop in incomprehension and fear when I told them their Medicaid wouldn’t pay for abortion. Fuck these people.

Ugh, this just makes me feel ill. I wish I was wealthy enough to pay for abortions for anyone that needs one. No one should ever find themselves in Brittany’s position.

“See, you can make it work. You struggle through it.”

He’s joking. It’s supposed to be arch.

Case in Point:

Laurie Penny’s articles about Milo should be required reading:

I thought he was dunzo because of the pedophilia scandal?

I’ve never loved Larry Wilmore more in that moment.

Milo confuses wanting to be heard with having something to say.

ARE YOU ME

I put away 20% of my income into savings per year and I’m still like ‘it’s not ennnnouuuuughhhh’.

Whenever I read stories like this in the world, I wonder how on earth people my age or younger can just go and willy nilly drop $2000 on something like this. Our household income is twice the median and anything over $200 is a ‘is this ok? Can we do this?’ type of purchase. I always wonder what these people do for a…

like, this was my rent, which I just spent on this thing that’s not happening.
