So the very thing reproductive rights advocates had been sounding the alarm about.

@sturmovikdragon @constans Who likes paying ever higher prices for groceries compared to when self checkout wasn’t an option, but being expected to be their own cashier? It’s not like stores are passing on the cost savings from cutting employees to the customer.

@Ed_Realist I don’t know why this is a stretch for so many people, but guess what? There are many different ways mental illness and psychosis can present. There isn’t just one way to be psychotic, and they’re not all disorganized. Someone can be completely deluded and still plan things.

@berlin_darling @MoreOrLessAMess @we_get_there @lifesaparty36 @83Turnerb @LDBlondePod You clearly are not a mental health clinician, you do not know what you’re talking about. If someone is psychotic, they are operating ina distorted reality. Sit all the way down.

@celestialbe1ng Or….she was a patient with severe psychiatric symptoms and each step along the way, her providers tried evidence-based treatment options and unfortunately, she did not respond to them as hoped. No medication, of any type, works as intended for everyone.

Antipsychiatrists will do anything to manipulate the argument. This horrific tweet takes real evidence and then omits very important details.

Funny how you can track a thirteen year old child across state lines when she's needing an abortion, but not for the adult who raped her.

Because god forgive we infringe on HIS rights.

Men treat their wives and girlfriends like this and then blame feminism for making them lonely.

@Aristotle7777 Every woman I know would have loved to meet the right guy and have kids in their 20s. However, the majority of available men had no interest in commitment. We’re talking like for every guy who was a gentleman, there were 10-15 who only wanted one night stands or a f**kbuddy.

Men talk about the friend zone a lot but something that doesn't get talked about is the pain you feel as a woman when you realized you didn't have a friend...you had a man pretending to care for you so he could sleep with you.

THE AMOUNT OF MEN ASKING ❝WHAT IF SHE GETS HER PERIOD AND STARTS A WAR❞ ABOUT A 60 YEAR OLD WOMAN IS A PRIME EXAMPLE OF WHY MEN NEED TO STAY OUT OF OUR REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS

I am sharing this comment from one of my posts because it distills so much of what I have been thinking, so eloquently:

“I personally have pretty progressive views, but the moderates are the only ones who have ever done anything for me. I wouldn't have health insurance if it weren't for Obama and Pelosi. And Biden made it cheaper (Although Trump reversed that). Being able to get legislation passed matters.”

If you think that most rape victims immediately go to the police, you know nothing about rape, victims, or the police. And that ignorance is a choice but so is using it to publicly mock & discredit rape victims. And that reveals a personal investment that women should note.

[Sarah Longwell @SarahLongwell25]

Graham Platner was accused of rape and every Democrat tossed him overboard.

Donald Trump was accused of rape multiple times and sexual assault and harassment many more times. Also the whole matter of trying to overturn an election.

Republicans nominated him a second time.

turns out they could breathe in masks the whole time they just needed the underlying condition to be white supremacy

They made Jimmy Carter sell his peanut farm

70 years ago, people like this were raging about having to let black students into their whites-only schools. 125 years ago, they were raging about the Irish and the Italians being permitted to live here. 175 years ago, they were running riot in Kansas to make it a slave state.

Just got off the phone with my college roommate.

His daughter was diagnosed with leukemia in January.

He has insurance. Good insurance. The kind you feel safe having.

7 months later:
Savings: wiped out. 401k: cashed early. Penalties and all. House: refinanced to cover the gaps insurance decided weren’t their problem.

He told me he’s not the same person anymore.

Said watching your child fight for her life while simultaneously fighting an insurance company over coverage codes does something to you that doesn’t go away.

They did everything right.
Two incomes. No debt. Responsible their whole lives.

One diagnosis undid all of it in 7 months.

And somewhere a health insurance CEO is getting a $30 million bonus this quarter.

I don’t know how people defend this system with a straight face.

I really don’t.

Clarence Thomas argued the 14th Amendment was written narrowly for former enslaved people and doesn't apply broadly today. Using that same logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets and doesn't apply to AR-15's, but somehow, he's never made that argument.
