If you voted Republican, and you care about your country, please act rather than rationalize. Unless you cast your ballot so that South African oligarchs could steal your data, money, country, and future, tell your elected officials that you wanted something else.

NEW: Porsha Ngumezi is the fifth case we've reported on in which a woman died after not receiving a D&C or its second-trimester equivalent in time, or at all.
Her case raises questions about how abortion bans are pressuring doctors to avoid standard care even in straightforward miscarriages.

The ERA has been ratified by 38 states and met all criteria to become part of the Constitution. But it remains in procedural limbo, awaiting publication. President Biden could take final action on the ERA and secure gender equality in the Constitution. www.sacbee.com/opinion/arti...

Trump's Cabinet appointments are shocking, but part of a plan. We should be wary of shock, which excuses inaction. We have to get through the surprise and the shock to see the design and the risk.

Important to remember!
Just a reminder for everyone new to the platform, the only thing that matters here is user engagement, so when you come across a troll or a bot, the WORST thing you can do is argue. Just use the robust block feature or ignore them altogether, and eventually the void will swallow them

Listen up folks. When your partner is venting, it's so so important to let them finish and then actually ASK THEM if they want advice or comfort, chocolate or wine, a back rub or a new kitty, an all expenses paid trip to the bookstore or a solemn oath of vengeance. This is the way. Trust me.
