I've shared this with others over the years:

I had a miscarriage in 2010. I had zero say over my own body & nearly bled to death over a cluster of cells w/a heartbeat in a Catholic-run hospital. It was disgusting how the nurses & doctors treated the situation.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Forced birth in a country with:

—No universal healthcare
—No universal childcare
—No paid family & medical leave
—One of the highest rates of maternal mortality among rich nations

This isn't about "life." It's about control.

[Yuko @YukoGrrl]

Forcing women to "see if the miscarriage will resolve itself naturally" while the decaying tissue is killing her should not be ok. But this is considered abortion.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Forced pregnancy is a crime against humanity.

[The Associated Press @AP]

“This is becoming more and more dangerous.” Across Europe, authorities have installed security screening devices made by a Chinese company with deep ties to China’s military and the highest levels of the ruling Communist Party.

Just so we’re clear:
monoclonal antibody treatment costs about $1200-2000.
The vaccine costs $40.

@eliowa Is your landline phone in the kitchen but with a really long cord so you can sit in the closet to make private calls?

@hocking_jeff Just be sure to randomly remember this at 2AM 8 years from now.

@eliowa I got my 2nd shot a week ago. I didn't have any symptoms. I was a bit tired after the first shot so I took a nap. It was all pretty anti-climatic.

More than 4 Americans died due to incompetence at the highest level. Did it have to occur in a place that most Americans cannot find on a map or can we haul Trump in for 18 hours of questioning? #ImpeachTrumpNow

“It was Americans attacking the seat of democracy.”

Considering how much damage Trump has managed to do in the last week, I don't think we can afford to give him two more weeks. #ImpeachTrumpNow

White privilege is violently storming the US Capitol and just...being sent home.
