They Didn’t Want to Have C-Sections. A Judge Would Decide How They Gave Birth. Two Florida women had to attend virtual court hearings while in labor to argue for their right to choose their own medical care. As their state pushes to expand some types of medical freedom, it has a...

Can you imagine having to participate in a 3hr virtual court hearing while in active labor?

It happened in "Florida, a state that has pushed to expand medical freedom for those who wish to avoid vaccines or fluoridated water, while constricting the rights of people in various stages of pregnancy."

This isn’t just about kids. It’s about women’s labor and the prison pipeline. When neurodivergent children don’t get early intervention, they are more likely to struggle with regulation and end up in the justice system. Meanwhile ABA is a women-led industry

This lil guy is very small and has no money, so you can imagine the kind of stress he's under.

My mom never tarnished my dad's name because she didn't have to. A woman doesn't have to make up things that the child will see for themselves eventually. Most fathers ruin their own relationships with their children no assistance needed.

Nearly six months behind bars. No bail. When they finally dismissed the charges they released her in North Dakota with no winter clothes & no means of getting back home to Tennessee. They upended this woman's life.

This, all of this. When you call your reps you don't need a speech prepared or even to make the best points and argument. "Hi, I'm your constituent, this is my zip code, don't vote for this, if you do I'm not voting for you." That's literally all you need.

hearing loss, esp sudden hearing loss, is considered a medical emergency. like it's a go-to-the-ER-if-there's-no-urgent-care sort of medical emergency.

this time it was much, MUCH worse.

thankfully, I knew what it was and started treatment within hours of it happening. if you ever experience sudden hearing loss it is considered a medical emergency and you must start steroids ASAP.

These times are so dramatic they are surreal & disorienting, & it's a reality warp. Many forces attempt to manipulate your perception right now, & AI disseminating false images & info is part. As a mad person, I traverse reality surreally, & I advise you to take responsibility for keeping your grip.

I found out in my late teens that when I was young, my parents split & reconciled.

They shouldn't've. I'd've been so much better off. All I ever saw was toxicity I thought was love.

Even if you can't believe you did the right thing for you (and you did!), you did the *right* thing for your kids.

if you host one of these public resources and need to shed the heat after the eye of sauron turns upon you, hmu β€” happy to work with you to take over public facing duties (or the entire project) to draw attention away from you, and also to relocate the resource to canadian infrastructure.

Jews are targeted in shuls & online.

Brown & Black people are abducted and sent to concentration camps.

Muslims are openly targeted by politicians.

Activists & journalists are targeted by the FBI.

Trans & queer people are being outlawed.

We are in this together. This is why solidarity matters.

We are all very tired of it (or at least I am), but pretending it’s gone is not going to help anyone stay healthy. Lots of us are tired of hearing about it (and honestly, we’re tired of talking about it), but we keep talking about it because we know how devastating it can be, we’ve met people whose lives are forever changed for the worse because of getting COVID-19, and lots of people who are now living with Long COVID say they wish they had known how bad it could be. So we’ll probably keep talking about it, because we want you to be healthy and happy, and even if you are tired of it (that’s fair),
we hope you take some steps to
protect yourself and others 
so you can all live long, healthy lives.

In other words, we’re know you’re tired of hearing about COVID-19. We’re tired of hearing about it too. But ignoring it does not help it to go away, so please continue to take protect your health.
