In 24 hours, Elon Musk banned accounts he said he never would, made up new rules to justify it, threatened legal action against a 20-year-old, pontificated on how doxing is banned on the platform, and then immediately doxed a man.

Just checking in. I'm stoned for the first time in a year in a studio in London's equivalent of the Bromuda Triangle. There's a club outside my window repeating the refrain of Beautiful Girls by Sean Kingston.
Love teaching Hassan new things about septa like how when a pot hole gets big enough they reroute the whole bus line to avoid it instead of the city just.... Fixing the pothole. Beautiful.
Abortion as interventional healthcare is already steeped in judgement and fraught with trauma even with these protections. Abortion as a defense against a mental health crisis isn't taken seriously. This measure will make it impossible to navigate exceptions without costing lives
Many of the most recent abortion bans have exceptions that only apply in a medical โemergencyโ that threatens a patientโs life. Fearing lawsuits or criminal prosecution, doctors and hospitals have tended to interpret these exceptions as excluding situations like this one:
The point is religious proclamations steeped in racist and mysognistic agendas have no place in healthcare and this will kill female bodied people. Also they should figure out how to not administer methotrexate via ass injections cause that shits demeaning.
Not to mention the fact that i felt like I had to argue to end my pregnancy made it all that more traumatic. None of this is to say I did not deeply mourn what for me was a life lost.
To be clear, abortion wasn't presented as a treatment plan until I exhibited obvious distress over the idea of going through a pregnancy with an unidentified mass. The resident had to consult with their attending before even presenting the option.
I had an abortion this year that saved my life. I was told I could wait and see if my tube would rupture, and if it didn't- try to survive a pregnancy with an ovarian mass. I took the option that guaranteed me going home to the baby I had already birthed into the world.
The fact that "wait and see if your fallopian tube will rupture which could mean you bleeding out internally if you don't get to emergency surgery in time to save a fetus that is likely not viable" was a legitimate treatment option, let alone the FIRST option, is WILD AND CRUEL.

Checking in to say that pregnancy and motherhood has only affirmed how pro choice I am. It was and is the hardest thing and I had the luxury of choosing this for myself. Forced birth is an atrocity.
Parenting a toddler is just wondering where he found the Cheerio that's in his mouth and not really wanting to know the answer. At least it's a cheerio this time.
