I don't know who needs to hear this, but eating dandelion greens and daily pennyroyal oil rubs are a great combo to bring a period on if you're late, and don't want to be.

Breaking: Texas is banning abortions as early as six weeks, before many women know they are pregnant.

It is one of nation’s strictest abortion measures. Gov. Greg Abbott signed the bill into law today. It takes effect in September. https://t.co/X9Y5zQ2onw

Worth remembering tonight:

1) state crimes can’t be pardoned by a president in DC
2) in Georgia, even the GOP governor lacks the power to pardon

Oh and just for fun:

3) trials are televised in Georgia

A fundamental principle of street safety is u keep different modes (by mass/speed/potential for harm) separated by real barriers and/or space. Putting cyclists in the center of a street without serious protection is not innovative, it's incompetent.

What's truly preventing climate action? It's not them, or me, or you: it’s much bigger than that. It's the companies who hold the balance of power & wealth in this world. As @MaryHeglar says so powerfully, (source: https://t.co/e1MDOIAyQM)

THANK YOU, @POTUS! I’ve been fighting to take the decision to prosecute military rape out of the chain of command for over a decade, and today, @POTUS will sign the executive order doing just that. We have more work to do, but this is monumental. https://t.co/Z5Lb2HgsiI

NYPD hates when you or I use encrypted messaging apps. But NYPD will soon encrypt all of their radios, preventing media from listening to their transmissions, which have been public for years. Six precincts in Brooklyn have already encrypted their radios. https://t.co/zQ0Kt7Ax1m

Yikes. That's some scary stuff.

[Al Jazeera English @AJEnglish]

Heavy rain from Typhoon Doksuri has triggered landslides and flooding in China’s Fujian Province.

Rescuers are now looking for residents trapped in submerged houses, while authorities assess the colossal clean-up operation ⤵️

Pregnant US citizens, fear not! I paid almost nothing for my two out-of-hospital births, attended by midwives. So can you! You'll have to skip the epidural, but believe you me, it's worth it.

One consequence of the scarcity of female orthopedic surgeons?

Women who do enter the profession have startlingly high breast cancer rates, likely in part because many lead shields for doctors don’t cover the edge of the breast. https://t.co/uj3fHzhbSe
