I’ve spelt my name wrong before. You just stare at it blankly, wondering how in 20+ years of writing or typing it out every day, your brain betrayed you like this.

I always enjoy the irony of the anti-abortion community using SCIENCE to push the answer to “when does life begin?” to the cellular level but the idea of evolution is just something that science cannot answer to their satisfaction.

Women are already being prosecuted in this country for having miscarriages.  They will absolutely go to prison for seeking out abortions.

I really don’t think it will be a question of if so much as when. The only thing that will save it is stare decisis, and SCOTUS only cares about once in a blue moon.

I was just talking about Roe and the recent SCOTUS shenanigans with a coworker this morning. I said, “I guarantee you Roe will be challenged within the next few years.” My coworker didn’t think the Republicans would actually go *that* far and try to strike down Roe.

What if Roe v. Wade falls? Will conservative single-issue abortion voters, satisfied with their hard-fought victory from their decades-long battle emerge from the miasma and suddenly be able to appreciate the pro-life policies of liberals and turn on the Republicans? No, they will come for birth control next, and then…

So what’s the correct reaction when, several years from now, dipshit pro-life women in red states find themselves in Savita Halappanavar’s position, about to leave their first 2 kids without a mother because kid #3 miscarries and will get septic, but she can’t get an abortion because ‘heartbeat’? Because I want to be…

Because I hate getting stuck behind the people that are in row 5 but stop the whole line because they are:
1. Putting their bag in the overhead
2. Turning to put their travel companion’s bag in the overhead
3. Taking off their jacket
4. Putting their jacket in the overhead
5. Realizing that their book/tablet/phone/whatever…

Like many white people from the rural south raised by Republicans, I primarily align with Democratic Socialist policies and positions. I’m 33 years old. I remember 1998 – the lynching year, Matthew Shepherd and James Byrd, Jr. Columbine happened during my Freshman year of high school. How safe are today’s children…

“She said, ‘You are responsible for protecting the talent, protecting the brand,’” one of the people aware of the meeting said. “She said, ‘You are responsible as the producers. You have to protect the talent and the brand.’”

Interesting how when the establishment talks about party unity, they mean “fall in line with us,” and never the other way around.

I think the point is, you don’t lose you sanity. Also, who considers the flight the fun part of the vacation?

Most airlines in the US have a minimum age of 12 for unaccompanied minors now. Some Japanese airlines it’s 5yo.

When I flying unaccompanied wit was like an extra $50 but then again they lost me when my connecting plane was cancelled without telling my mom when I was like 8yo so I just slept on the luggage carousel.. My…

“Accident implies there’s nobody to blame.”

I read this as “How expensive would it be for a minor to travel alone under the airplane in a crate?”

This smells bad. All of it does. Of course this briar motherfucker committed a hate crime, but everyone else is guilty of it, too. Maxine is right. Fight them with confrontation. I’ve been a bitch before when dealing with these people- I’ve been shy and bashful, not wanting to disturb my work relationships. If they’re…

I have no idea what’s going on anymore. I haven’t given up, and never will, but this shit is really weird.

How about some good news?
