@user54907 Where are said documented cases? I'd like to take a look at those.

@prochoicewoman7 @lydiataydavis You must never leave your echo chamber. People have late 3rd trimester abortions due to change of mind. There’s literally documented cases of this. Just keep avoiding. It only shows how weak your convictions are 😘

Not your DNA, Not your body. Not your body, Not your choice. This shouldn’t be controversial.

@PolarBearsOink @allie__voss There are quite a few that can't and quite a few that can - again, those that can't are typically controlled substances or additionally those that require temperature control. And especially now, there are whole businesses like HERS that prescribe medications entirely online.

@TheNamesErica @allie__voss There’s actually quite a few medications that can’t be prescribed through a virtual visit or phone call. And many medications can’t be prescribed to individuals calling from a state in which the provider isn’t licensed. These kinds of guardrails aren’t unusual.

Btw this is about making you show up in person to say “Yes I would like an abortion pill please” so your boyfriend doesn’t slip it into your smoothie For some reason she thinks this is a bad thing

@NoFoolinTulin @TheLaurenChen I don't really think that the instructions are even for you Chaz, even though they are incredibly simple.

@TheNamesErica @TheLaurenChen Erhem... "Overly" complicated as in more complicated than it needs to be, not as in I can't figure it out.

Women release 1 egg a month. Men produce 1,500 sperm cells every second. Birth control pills are for women because of biology, not sexism.

@NoFoolinTulin @TheLaurenChen If you think this is complicated, my guy...yikes 😬

@TheLaurenChen I saw a "female condom" in a store the other day and as expected the directions were overly complicated. People already fuck up regular condoms enough. Oh well. I'm not against there being more babies. It's Mother's Day later this month after all.

@Genevie44927299 @canering @allie__voss The medications themselves are not illegal medications. So that comparison does not apply. Any medication that is not a controlled substance can be sent in the mail.

@canering @allie__voss I'm cool with that. Even if we weren't talking about the murder of innocent babies, and were talking instead about something like . . . marijuana: You don't get to order by mail things that are legal in a different state but illegal in yours.

@beccadi @gayhoebby @92prcntrswiftie She has a tendency to go flat, especially before she really started singing in her lower registers. Her vocal strength is in those lower registers, imo. I'm glad she's honed in on that.

@gayhoebby @92prcntrswiftie It wasn’t that pitchy. Her voice was more shaky back then and she’s worked pretty hard and it’s gotten a lot stronger. This performance isn’t even that shaky compared to others.

Taylor Swift is a deceptively skilled vocalist. Many professionals comprehend and more may realize now after listening to those on American Idol perform her songs. Her control and storytelling while prioritizing musicality over vocal gymnastics is exceptional.

@mokmuud What?

@TheNamesErica @bloochris6 Ironic after your previous posts.

This is stupid. Just add the damn numbers or memorize it. What are we even doing?

👋 Support your local library!!! 😊❤️

Wanna get my tubes tied because the US is shit and tbh it would probably be nice to not have to take birth control for like 30 straight years of my life lmao but I've never had surgery before so it makes me REAL NERVOUS

@bloochris6 Yikes. That's a pretty rude way of talking to a complete stranger. I hope that you don't talk to people face to face like that. It seems counterintuitive because to you, simple math is intuitive. For children still learning, it is not. This is how it is taught to be intuitive.

@TheNamesErica I said “it seems counterintuitive” not “it’s different so it’s wrong” and you started making this a right wing conspiracy theory bro please go outside we’re talking about math you weirdo.

Mifepristone is a safe and effective form of abortion medication. This ruling will put women and the providers they rely on at risk.  New York will continue to hold the line and protect reproductive freedom from these attacks.

@bloochris6 It's part of a larger pattern being pushed by right wingers. It's unfortunate to see more people outside of that sphere buying into it. There's nothing wrong with finding new ways of teaching foundational concepts. It's a bias to think that just because it's different, it's wrong

@TheNamesErica @mathillustrated @Goodday2919 Woah this is a crazy reach man I just think a lot of the new teaching methods schools use are stupid, as someone who went through school and has a 13 year age gap with a younger sibling watching them do simple tasks through convoluted and stunting ways makes me cringe

@bloochris6 @mathillustrated @Goodday2919 Because they are still learning. They don't have that automatic processing because they are still learning foundational skills. This is homework that is teaching those concepts. You don't remember what it was like to not know what adding is and even what numbers mean.

@TheNamesErica @mathillustrated @Goodday2919 How do you understand numbers if you can’t see that 8+9 is the same as 10+7 without having to be explicitly taught that by a teacher? That’s my point. Now that same child will have to be explicitly taught everything and won’t ever come to conclusions on their own making math hard

@mathillustrated @bloochris6 @Goodday2919 It's all playing into the social push to foster distrust in public schools so that more people either homeschool or choose religious private schools that are easier to indoctrinate and ultimately make us even more stupid and complicit. It's unfortunate to see.

@TheNamesErica @bloochris6 @Goodday2919 Right. This page comes after even more basic stuff that adults sometimes remember as obvious. Definitely even more basic stuff explicitly modeled earlier in the year

@LianaKinzie That doesn't help with any other numbers besides 9. This is meant to teach a skill that can be used more broadly instead of just memorizing that trick with "9".

@travisakers 9 + anything I just subtracted one from the second number. Wouldn't that be easier

@bloochris6 @mathillustrated @Goodday2919 Explain how a child is supposed to "actually understand numbers" without being "explicitly taught" about them and how they work first? I feel like y'all forget that we have to teach children literally everything.

@mathillustrated @Goodday2919 @travisakers Idk man I feel like if you actually understand numbers this shouldn’t even need to be explicitly taught and would stop kids from thinking and coming to conclusions on their own

@PaulNjeule @heisam001 @q_yhup I mean, no one needs to "justify" surgeries that they choose to do on their own body. But I was just sharing information 🤷🏼‍♀️

@TheNamesErica @heisam001 @q_yhup Dude had every condition that justifies more surgeries. Very convenient.

These was way more than just Vitiligo. Y’all need to start saying the truth at this point tho, most of Michael Jackson’s cosmetic surgeries were not required for vitiligo, we have to somewhat agree at some point that he took advantage of the situation and did more surgeries than he should have actually done. He had an image he wanted to portray and he got it. Vitiligo affects skin pigment, not facial structure, It doesn’t require nose jobs, chin reshaping, possible cheek and facial contour work or major facial surgery. These are aesthetic choices, not medical treatment for vitiligo. The only explanation for this decision is possibly his desire to refine his appearance due to pressure from fame and personal insecurities. There possibly was a need to maintain a consistent look of his choice while his skin condition progressed.

@heisam001 @q_yhup From what I've seen, he got 2 purely cosmetic surgeries to his nose very early on and complications from Lupus forced more reconstructive fixes because of the autoimmune reaction to the work from the first 2 surgeries. So yes, that can happen.

@q_yhup Lupus does not require cosmetic surgeries like nose reshaping or facial contouring and other multiple surgeries he did. 💯✌🏽

@butterfly3wrote @heisam001 I don't think he straightened his hair - he started wearing hair pieces and wigs after his scalp got burned doing that Pepsi commercial. It caused a lot of damage and hair loss. I think that's when that change started.

@heisam001 I just find it weird that they say oh it’s just his skin disorder yet at the same time he straightened his hair and got stuff done to his face to give him white features. If all that white skin is just makeup, why wouldn’t he just use black makeup to keep his normal skin color?
