Colorado ran an extremely successful pilot program that significantly reduce unwanted pregnancies and abortions, and save millions in programs like Medicaid, SNAP, housing programs, etc. Here are the facts on the program: (Source for all info at the end of the thread)

I am losing my mind for tonight. Is there a booth this year? @esmailcorp @samesmail Oh, and I made a thing.

@tify330 Anyone comparing the two is not arguing in good faith, and should not be engaged with.

These arm gestures are not the same so stop playing in our face. -Kamala raises her arm while talking -He hits his chest and salutes 2x

@Jis4Justice13 Fuck cancer. Donating blood or platelets can be a tangible way to help cancer patients in their fight!

LeeLee is reunited with her Mikey❤️ Please everyone keep Mike and the Rinder family in your prayers🙏

@emeraldeyes8915 Very sad news, indeed, but look at the courage he showed with his life. Look at the love and happiness he got to experience outside of the church. And look at his legacy of truth telling and fighting against evil. Very sad that the world lost a man of such integrity.

I’m sad. Sad that Mike Rinder regretted not seeing the end of the CoS. Sad that he’s gone. Sad that he won’t see his disconnected children, or see his son grow up. I’m just sad.

@LeahRemini I was listening to his book (again) when I saw the news. I’m heartbroken. It feels like Mike was a friend, even though I never met him. I left a cult (YWAM) and so I understood so much of what you guys talked about. Love and hugs, Leah. I’m proud of you both.

On Sunday, we lost a giant, and I lost a man who was more than a friend—he was my family. It’s impossible to imagine the last 13 years of my life without Mike Rinder. He was my anchor, my trusted partner, and my closest confidant. The thought of moving forward without him feels unbearable. When I left Scientology, Mike was one of the first people I turned to. From that moment, he became my lifeline. Together, we embarked on an incredible journey that included The Aftermath and our podcast, Fair Game. But Mike was so much more than my partner in this fight—he was my brother, my father, my best friend… in every way that mattered. Mike saved my life and the life of my daughter. He stood by me through battles that felt insurmountable, giving me strength when I had none left. I owe him a debt I could never repay. I haven’t yet come to terms with the reality that I can’t call him, text him, or hear his voice anymore. I am shattered in ways I never thought possible, overwhelmed by the weight of this loss. I have cried endlessly and can’t seem to move from my bed since coming home from being with him and his grieving family. I’ll have so much more to say about Mike and the legacy he leaves behind—words that will attempt to honor his immeasurable contribution to this world, to my life, and to the lives of countless others. But for now, I want to honor his memory by fulfilling one of his last wishes: encouraging support for his son Jack’s college fund. In his post-Scientology life, Mike was a man transformed. He worked tirelessly to right the wrongs of his past and beyond. He owed no one anything. Mike was offered a lot of money to stay silent about Scientology’s criminal activities, and he refused and did the work. There was not one call that Mike didn’t take, not one person Mike didn’t try to help, despite the many heartbreaks he endured from those who needed him. Mike also became an incredible husband and an attentive, loving father to Jack and his stepson Shane. One of the many heartbreaks Mike suffered was the absence of his older children, Taryn and Benjamin, who disconnected from him due to Scientology’s cruel policies after he courageously escaped its abuse. Mike adored Jack, who is just 12 years old. He was consumed with knowing he wouldn’t be there to see Jack grow into adulthood. If you’re able, I hope you’ll join me in contributing to Jack’s college fund, ensuring that Mike’s dreams for his son can still come true. Click Here To Contribute: bit.ly/40945pE Please keep Mike’s brave and devoted wife, Christie, their son Jack, and Mike’s stepson Shane in your thoughts and prayers. They’ve lost a husband and father whose love knew no bounds, and I’ve lost someone whose presence in my life was irreplaceable. My Mikey, I will miss you every day, and I just don’t know how to do it without you.

Sad to hear of Mike Rinder’s passing. I was listening to his book again when I saw the news. The world has been changed and many people will avoid that cult bc of his work against it. #DavidMiscavigeBeatsPeople #ScientologyIsACult #WheresShelly #MikeRinderRIP

@lynseymoggers @marriedtooyoung @InternetH0F I think the whole thing is fake. If not, that dude needs to grow a pair and put the phone down and deal with his Mom instead of filming. But it reeks of being a skit to me!!

@marriedtooyoung @InternetH0F Though I do think this grandma is very pushy, I do wonder if the other grandmother is allowed to visit.

Mother in law won't take no for an answer trying to hold newborn only 2 days after birth😬

@marriedtooyoung @comfysarah @InternetH0F Oh, you’ve made it ABUNDANTLY clear why they don’t want you around. Even if you can’t see it, we all can! And if you don’t change your demanding, selfish attitude they’re going to go full no contact right quick. Have fun with that!

@comfysarah @InternetH0F You have no idea and GFY

@DSmithXIII @Dialectiks So the next logic step is murder. Got it.

This video was posted around two weeks ago. That’s insane.

@qb_cathy @hashjenni This is like Christians telling gay people they’re going to hell. A. None of you business and B. Yeah the gay community already knows what you think. Mind your business.

@hashjenni Why do you need to tell them, don't you think they already know??

How do you POLITELY tell someone they're overweight???

@hashjenni A. Why do you feel the need to do so and B. Do you really believe they don’t know? I can’t imagine a scenario where it’s my responsibility to comment on someone’s body.

@dwoverdrive The ladies do it, too. It's really alarming how many people don't wash their hands after using the bathroom. Meanwhile, I'm the weirdo who washes my hands before AND after I use the restroom. I'm not touching my bits with dirty hands!

I see Norovirus is trending. Wash your fucking hands. Dude, the number of dudes I see leave public restrooms without washing their hands is fucking CRAZY

@boztik_ZA @joebidensplug Seems to be glitching in general. I keep getting notifications that people replied to me, but when I click on the new message it isn't there. Just reddit being glitchy, per usual.

@joebidensplug whats up with Reddit my posts wont go through

Got banned on Reddit again 🦅🦅🦅

@mikebolen @maseweb Do you genuinely think you’re the first person to stumble on this? There’s literally a name for it, bro. 🙄 Make sure you book two one way tickets, not a round trip fare, bc if you no show for the second flight, they’ll cancel the rest of your trip.

@maseweb Do well known the airline allows you to save 60%+ on flight cost 🙄

This is wild. Trying to buy a plane ticket from the West Coast to Saint Louis, Missouri. All direct flights start at $564. But if I book a flight to Atlanta with a layover in STL the flight is $198. Why would you not just do a carry-on and get off the plane in STL? I am!

Hey, @XcelEnergyCO. Are there plans to cut power in Boulder county tomorrow due to the expected winds? Trying to plan ahead.

@StreamOnMax @WhitneyCummings I’m sorry but it’s absolutely unwatchable garbage. I tried. I had low expectations- REALLY low. I cannot fathom how this made it to air. It’s so unwatchable.

Are you the ultimate Friends fan? The new Max Original 4-Part Game Show #FastFriends, hosted by @WhitneyCummings, premieres December 19 on Max.

I’m sorry, but the #FastFriends gameshow on Max is absolutely unwatchable trash. Who green lit this? How did it make it to air? It’s so, so bad. It’s second only to the Willy’s Chocolate Experience disaster in Glasgow as the stupidest shit I’ve seen in 2024.

@ronsterd89 Yes. Whatever you believe about childless weddings, and people certainly have feelings about that issue, it’s categorically rude to show up to a wedding with someone who wasn’t invited.

Is it rude to bring kids to a “no kid” wedding if you couldn’t find a babysitter?

@yashar He didn’t write that, lol.
