They named the child. They knew what was coming. The child was alive outside the womb briefly. While an abortion, this was a (necessary) loss of life and a loss for them. This still was their child.

While you personally might not *share* photos like these, it is not that unusual to have photographers document these occasions. Photos can help the family grieve, process, and remember. Having the “ceremony” of a photographer can feel like it’s giving gravity and respect to the life of the child and the significance…

I would say ultra Orthodox is worse. The below is behind a paywall, but the headline tells the story.

The Robin Daggers reference I was hoping for. Now I can get back to my friday.

Cool Girl is back, and she has an update for the 2020s.

It will only add fuel to the fire that her husband should resign or be impeached.

Sir, this is a Wendy’s......

These folks are scared by a little chalk on a public sidewalk, and peaceful protestors outside their homes? They should spend an hour inside an abortion clinic and see what staff and patients go through at the hands of aggressive, angry, virulent mobs of pro-forced-birth crazies.

When coming back from a movie at the mall, the late Mr Reyes and I would walk past the Abercrombie & Fitch and say our usual thing:
