In her new book KILLERS OF ROE Amy Littlefield wrote that it’s sometimes hardest of all to talk to people who you *almost* agree with and boy am I feeling that rn! Hire me to help your org understand and unravel abortion stigma at the individual, community, and societal level 🩷

My toddler just said β€œI want to go mommy’s book tour” as I was leaving and I am so proud but also I will never be leaving the city limits again.

Ok so my take is that David Harbour playing a character that is objectively humiliating (and also dies) right after the Lily Allen album is great PR strategy that he simply doesn’t deserve. Whoever is responsible for this, please use your talents for good instead!

My point is: resist that. Seek out the work of journalists, activists, and thinkers like @garnethenderson.com @susanrinkunas.com @kylietcheung.bsky.social @amylittlefield.bsky.social @gretchensisson.bsky.social @beccareatucker.bsky.social @renee.bsky.social @tinavasquez.bsky.social + so many others

I think it goes to show just how much this sort of reporting gets buried by *tHe AlGoRiThMs,* and when I think too hard about that, I want to walk into the sea.

When this story published, I did the thing where you send it out to people who might be interested. A man I consider smart and well read observed that abortion as a subject in journalism has β€œfallen off the radar a bit,” and I can’t stop thinking about that comment.

If you haven’t already, consider leaving a real review wherever you leave reviews so people know it’s a safe resource 🩷

Y’all this person *came back* to update their review to insult me some more lmao. They are so upset about compassion! Imagine living like this! Also: it is in fact possible to be a working professional in multiple disciplines. I believe it makes my work stronger.

Book Club is the best modern ensemble cast rom com and it’s not even close.

I just am really glad I don’t have 9 kids!

Is there a greater high than getting a second Yahtzee with sixes? (No).

This is insaneΒ β€”Β DHS apparently went so far in their lie that Columbia University President Claire Shipman says the agents apparently brought faux flyers of a "missing child" so they could force themselves inside a campus residency to detain a college student.

Hi, does anyone here know what resources are available specifically for survivors who have abortions? I’d like to add them to my resource list. TY!

I support and respect trans Kansans. This is so awful.

β€œI don’t want to be pregnant” is a complete sentence.

So despite the ICE abduction this morning, Columbia didn’t take any steps to cancel classes or move them remote. No idea how noncitizen community members are supposed to feel safe showing up to study or work today.

It is absolutely disgusting, morally depraved behavior for ANY doctor to β€œmedically clear” ANYONE for deportation. This isn’t difficult to understand.

Does anyone else relate to the feeling of wanting to crawl into a live TV commercial - particularly the living rooms - and just exist there in a liminal state, like some kind of sensory deprivation tank?
