@tanylake Just had my first at 38! And one of my best friends her first at 39. Try not to let that talk scare you (easier said than done I realize). Sending you good vibes!
Why are people afraid to die if they don’t have kids?
Like you’re dead…how will you know.
A painful, prolonged death I get being afraid of…but why a fear of dying in general?
I’ve avoided tweeting about the white supremacist massacre so not to dishonor the dead in anyway. But I keep obsessing over the constant drumbeat of the last year abt the dangers of CRT when the literal violent danger of the white supremacy CRT exposes has been downplayed/denied.
Love hearing about ‘the sanctity of life’ from the same people who have spent the last two years arguing that killing grandma is a small price to pay for being able to sit in an Applebee’s.
Pre-Roe, I was 8 yrs old. I came home from school to find my Mom lying in a puddle of blood. She was weak & asked me to call a neighbor. She was miscarrying, but the embryo would not abort. For 48 hours, she bled while doctors transfused blood, waiting. Abortions were illegal.
A guy my age was telling me how happy he was that his wife just gave birth to their fourth child then was like “sorry, don’t mean to brag” and it’s like, oh no worries, your life literally sounds terrible to me
