A thread of all my explanations of why y’all need to stop blaming RBG for not retiring so I can stop having the exact same conversation every time SCOTUS acts like 3 frat bros in a trench coat /1

This is exactly what this law was designed for. And everyone knows it.

More on the Cobb teacher suspended for reading “My Shadow is Purple” to her 5th grade gifted class. OPINION: The ‘divisive concepts’ law was never meant for this. #gapol https://t.co/sNa1iqfSbs

Since Roe was overturned, mothers in states with abortion bans are 3x more likely to die. Significant maternal morbidity is seen without appropriate medical intervention: we are risking maternal lives and their future family.

I wrote about the first anniversary of Dobbs, which in just twelve months has already unleashed grotesque moral absurdities and unspeakable loss beyond what I think we can comprehend. https://t.co/GDkMcyqsCZ

Yep, we lost all our peaches and plums this year. And all the berries are about 2 weeks ahead of where they should be. We're getting big harvests already when they should be just barely starting.

[Nate Bear @NateB_Panic]

The US state of Georgia is known as the "peach state" for its large production of the fruit. But this year few people will eat a peach from Georgia. Up to 95% of the state's crop has been killed by the warmest winter on record

Me eating my front yard peaches, plums, blueberries and strawberries that I share with all the neighbors because they aren't weird assholes like this dude

[Nick Huber @sweatystartup]

Thank god for HOA rules.

People wanting to grow veggies in their front yards, leaving trees untrimmed, not getting weed control treatments.

Parking dumb shit like trailers, boats and RVs in driveways. Doing work on cars in driveway.

I’ll never live in a neighborhood without the rules.

Trying to learn how to braid my kid's hair by watching video tutorials and now my algo is super fucked up sending me evangelical/tradwife content 🤮

[Whole Woman's Health @WholeWomans]

“pro-choice” is an outdated term when the choice to have an abortion has been taken away for so many people

[Rev. Rachael Whaley Pate, MDiv @RMWhaley]

I didn't sleep through the night for a literal decade and doctors said I had "anxiety" when actually I had a massive fucking tumor that was thyroid cancer. So yeah.

[Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones]

I'll also say this, allowing Moms for Liberty to frame this as a "parents rights" issue is akin to when segregationists were allowed to frame opposition to desegregation as parents rights. Black parents exist. Parents of LGBTQ children exist. White parents who oppose this exist.

[Jessica Valenti @JessicaValenti]

I’ve been warning about this over the last few weeks - after Dems ceded anything beyond restoring Roe, anti-choicers moved the goalposts

[Jessica Valenti @JessicaValenti]

I am doing my best not to absolutely lose my shit, but how in the fuck do you publish a profile of the leader of Students for Life and not once mention that they want to make birth control illegal?

Ummm no it did not. It preserved the status quo which is far from broad access NYT GET IT TOGETHER MY SISTER IN CHRIST

[Shannon Watts @shannonrwatts]

NEW: Gun deaths among kids in the U.S. increased 50% between 2019 and 2021, per @PewResearch. During the same period, gun sales increased as Donald Trump and the gun industry preyed on COVID fears to sell guns.

When do the guns start making us safer? https://t.co/AhGp2SDKYF

[Chris Tackett (aka See It Name It Fight It) @cjtackett]

They tell us “we don’t want these books in school libraries” and “people can get them at public libraries”

Then it’s “we don’t want them in public libraries” and “people can get them at book stores”

Now they are going after the book stores
