In 2020 I thought we’d have a long-term vaccine for 2-3 major Covid variants by 2025. Masks would be commonplace. What’s actually happening is why my brain feels broken.

How many times and in how many ways does America have to pronounce itself as what it is before people finally admit it to themselves?

I guess it’s worth pointing out that Peru had an electoral college system until 1896 and it replaced it because, by 19th century standards, people considered it betrayed popular will. Just pointing this out for no reason…

NEW: Multiple safety-net abortion clinics are weeks away from shuttering, with one telling me it could close by the end of the year. Even if Harris wins, more people could be denied abortions in short order.
“Roevember” won’t save these clinics

Abortion laws with gestational limits and other restrictions are based on the idea that we need policing to keep "the wrong people" from "misusing" abortion services. That is some patriarchal bullshit. The path to true health and safety requires decriminalizing abortion.

"We have an incredible opportunity in the ashes of Roe v. Wade to build the thing that our community needs."

[Mother Jones @MotherJones]

If Harris becomes president, killing Dobbs is not the only way she could protect repro rights in the US.

Roe was “the ultimate floor, and not the ceiling, of what we need for making abortion affordable and accessible for all who need it." https://t.co/EpIhrhFTEt

Don’t go into OBGYN if you’re not willing to do abortions for your patients

What opinion about Pregnancy would put you in this position.

Thanks for your integrity and care, Susan.

“Frazier’s story highlights how law enforcement will use any tool at their disposal to criminalize people for pregnancy loss."-@ifwhenhow's Farah Diaz-Tello

People going through pregnancy loss deserve compassion, not cops.

Allowing limits on the legal right to abortion normalizes anti-abortion sentiments. Why are we doing the devil’s work for them?

“To be an ‘ally’ in someone else’s struggle is to suggest our lives are unchanged by what happens in that struggle—that it doesn’t matter if things change. Solidarity is a much more meaningful and helpful rubric for understanding social change.” @dnbrgr

@DA_Osorio @atrupar We do need a better handle, but at this point it is like changing your shoes as the ship is sinking.

@DA_Osorio @atrupar Yes!

[Global Justice Center @GlobalJusticeC]

There's a reason why the World Health Organization has come out against all gestational limits on abortion care.

They restrict essential healthcare, and the impact falls disproportionately on the most vulnerable.

[RHAvote @RHAVote]

Forcing people under the age of 18 to be pregnant against their will is truly depraved.

[RHAvote @RHAVote]

As @JessicaValenti says, abortion bans are designed to kill. So WHY are we compromising with these people?? Decriminalizing abortion completely is the floor. And it's what we urgently need to dig ourselves out of this nightmare.
