I wrote this in 2023, but it's even more pertinent now. The herbs mentioned in it are central to my first novel (on submission now, btw, if you're an editor seeking historical fiction about abortion).

We should all be buying seeds and planting gardens. I mean that literally and metaphorically.

As a writer who spent the last two years researching ancient Native and herbal remedies, I explore how “abortion” worked before modern medicine.

Imagine going to the Supreme Court to beg them to let you starve your people.
🚨 BREAKING: The Supreme Court has granted the Trump administration’s emergency appeal to temporarily block a lower court order requiring full SNAP food aid payments during the shutdown, allowing Trump to continue with partial payments instead.

You know what would make cancelled flights easier to handle? Releasing the Epstein files so folks have something to read while they’re stuck at the airport.

Please let this happen.
I think a thing we'll learn tonight is that people fucking hate what is going on and they will straight ticket vote against anyone involved in starving people while pillaging the country and kidnapping their neighbors. I don't think it matters at all who that person is.

Hi, I’m God.

Jesus and I agree that starving the poor so you can build yourself golden bathrooms and golden ballrooms is evil. Anyone who does that shall burn for eternity. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Thanks,

God

Hey @govpritzker.illinois.gov, does this seem necessary? Don’t we have a court order about unnecessary force?

I have this very niche problem wherein I write speculative fiction that keeps becoming realistic fiction.

This is oligarchy. This is obscene.

While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%.

End this oligarchy.

My grandmother was a young pregnant Jewish woman alone on a train in Poland during WWII when a German soldier told her to get off at the next stop because there wouldn't be any soldiers waiting at the station. She survived because, in that moment, a soldier chose the right thing over obeying orders.

A legally brain-dead woman in GA is being kept alive artificially to serve as an incubator. The embryo was 9 wks gestation when the woman was declared brain-dead. The woman's family is drowning in medical debt against their will. Please help them. Fuck abortion bans. www.gofundme.com/f/help-adria...
