The look on every obgyn’s face when they hear their patient’s absolutely necessary medications were stopped “because they’re pregnant” #obgyntwitter

I always thought that helping your kid "build immunity" was vaccinating and letting them play in dirt. I'm just learning it actually means let your kid get repeatedly infected with pathogens until they have a heart attack at soccer practice. Whoops, sorry I got that wrong kids

Wow so weird that, in the future, every patient presenting to the ED with an ectopic pregnancy will also have a new diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis that urgently needs methotrexate

Vaginas, etc was actually the second choice name for our clinic and tbh, je regrette

Glaucomflecken general hospital welcomes a new faculty member

I had the pleasure of working with John while on the gyne oncology service … incredible nurse, wonderful human! Will be very much missed but also so deserving of an amazing retirement 😊

[Dr. Glaucomflecken @DGlaucomflecken]

I have an important announcement

[Megan K. Stack @Megankstack]

“Bush could never credibly claim to be waging war on behalf of oppressed women. The US had already shown itself willing to ‘fight for women’s rights where we have enemy status and be silent about women’s rights where we are friendly.’”

New from me.

By the power granted to me by obstetrics, I hereby give medical clearance for all necessary dental procedures to all pregnant patients in all locations for all time.

There. Just print this tweet & take it to the office.

Finally found a moment to see #ShangChi & @SimuLiu you were incredible! Can’t wait for whatever comes next! Better believe I am telling everyone I know that I not only once cheered for you in Asian Idol but also saw LX4 perform back in the day 😉 #UTSneverends

If you think being forced to wear a mask is bad, imagine being forced to have a baby.

The @thenation ran Justice Sotomayor’s full dissent as its own piece and you should read every urgent word of it: https://t.co/jLMJ2fjZft

Obviously this is advice for people outside of Texas because in Texas there’s now a bounty on our fucking heads for even sharing this information which is why I’m not posting it for Texans and you should definitely not consider this advice for Texans

[Jessica Valenti @JessicaValenti]

If you're feeling scared and furious about Texas, look to the activists there for what you can do to help.

Give to an abortion fund, follow Texas feminists, understand that they know better than anyone what pregnant people in the state need right now
