I will never understand why people aren’t throwing money at @Abortion_Squad, which is a crucial backstop for abortion misinformation online, and frankly, pics up a lot of slack from bigger and better-funded orgs.

Support them here: https://t.co/NHoIWJNNnr

Reminder: Association does not equal causality.

>85% of U.S. opioid overdose deaths are in white people. If you wouldn’t say being white is a risk factor for fentanyl overdose then being Black isn’t a risk factor for pregnancy related deaths.

BALTIMORE—“At least four people were shot on the campus of Morgan State University on Tuesday night in what police were describing as an active shooter event.”

A gun-sick nation.

To those sending images & recollections of mid-20th century nuclear families as some sentimental & nostalgic ideal: that was a big aberration, highest marriage rates in history of nation! Also entirely engineered thanks to... government handouts to white people!

[Utah Abortion Fund @UTabortionfund]

so how much money do we think went into developing a chatbot that recommends patients drive across all of nevada (6 hours) instead of to a clinic in a neighboring state (1.5 hours).

@GoleenSamari Yay! Congrats!

Psst: “Auntie Networks” do more harm than good & you should ditch them.

@Abortion_Squad runs the abortion subreddit (r/abortion) which helps folks get ACCURATE information, but they can’t do it without you. Donate here+ make it recurring if you’re able: https://t.co/KSBmVaXLid

New pub on how people think about their fertility and abortion w/ Suzanne Bell @UshmaU.

➡️We need to be clearer about the distinctions ppl make between fears of not achieving their reproductive aspirations vs. infertility from abortion (not a thing).

Thanks to great co-authors @MarissaKVelarde @rlcalla and other colleagues from @fhi360research @WitsHealthFac @UNC_Global @UNCOBGYN

Haven't yet had a chance to share our new paper on SRH self-care perspectives from South Africa and Zambia. Importantly, we report some of the first thoughts on IUD self-removal among providers in LMICs. https://t.co/q1zmzwHgMz

[Alice Cartwright @cartwrightalice]

There's still a lot of work to do to make self-care family planning methods and other SRH tests and supplies available to users. But people are interested!

[Triangle Abortion Access Coalition @TriangleAccess]

Through what appears to be an entirely closed door process, we have heard that the NC House and Senate have come to agreement on an abortion ban, which will be rushed through without allowing public comment.

We expect the press conference announcing these plans to come by EOD.

[Alice Cartwright @cartwrightalice]

National repro orgs are not ready to have this conversation but we all need to face this and grapple with it (and fund people who are doing it!)

[Garnet Henderson garnethenderson.com on Bluesky @garnethenderson]

In the mess of today's news I hope you'll still read my latest for @RewireNewsGroup on the critical work of @Abortion_Squad and @aBigMess.

Abortion seekers are telling us what they need—ESPECIALLY in moments like this—on Reddit. How can we better listen?

@garnethenderson My thoughts exactly.
