@abortionfundOH 100%! I was so surprised that in my abortion doula training, disability didn't really come up at all!

Which is why you should donate to @Abortion_Squad to make sure the r/abortion subreddit is good and useful for people trying to get an abortion! https://t.co/dtfURDDYlW
Just found out that Taylor & Francis has sold access to all @routledgebooks data to Microsoft to train their AI. This includes my publications. I get no payment for using my research labour, never mind the bigger problems of this energy-intensive extractivism...

Today is the 2 year anniversary of the Dobbs decision that upended abortion access in the US and created a public health crisis we are still very much in the thick of. Since 6/24/22 we have pushed out over $7M in direct service dollars for appointments & wrap around support.
Today marks 2 years since Roe v Wade was overturned. We have been pretty busy running r/abortion!

"I could hardly find any online info that wasn’t extremely biased or a Christian service in disguise. People on reddit can be extremely harsh, which is not what you need when you’re going through an unplanned pregnancy. Luckily I found this sub & really only found support."
Today's SCOTUS ruling doesn't change the fact that it's really challenging to get an abortion, whether via pills or procedure. **48,458 individuals** read 471,587 pages on r/abortion from June 1-12. We need your financial support to keep providing this free 24/7/365 service.
