@phreedomjawnal My polling place is so inefficient, EVERY time and it drives the anal systems thinker in me to the brink of insanity...

Mind you… I stood in line for 10 mins this morning because the poll workers didn’t know how to work the equipment…

No matter what happens this week, Southerners will still desperately need abortion funds to access abortion. Period.
If abortion is a political priority for you, show it by donating to and supporting your local abortion funds.

Every few months, some ER doctor goes viral for saying you need to take it very seriously when a male patient says his wife made him come in, and I'm infuriated that women are considered reliable ONLY when they're saying a man needs care, but not when she needs care herself. 🙃

What does it mean to have a democracy if women feel like they need to lie to their husbands about their vote? Or that women would not be encouraged to vote their conscience just like everyone else — even if their vote is different from anyone else in their household?

@AmeriKraut Exactly nothing makes any sense any more.

the fact that i have to question whether this is a real ectopic pregnancy or her lying to prevent others from aborting those pregnancies. that's how cultish everything has gotten.

Helen Mirren says she feels “sad” that Kurt Cobain is no longer alive because he never got the chance to experience GPS and its “magical” functionality. “I always say, it’s so sad that Kurt Cobain died when he did, because he never saw GPS,” Mirren said. “GPS is the most wonderful thing, to watch my little blue spot walking down the street. I just find it completely magical and unbelievable.” Read more here: variety.com/2024/music/new…

At Abortion, Every Day right now:
In the last weeks before the election, Republicans have revived their case against mifepristone. They want to ban mailing the medication (essentially passing a back-door ban), revoke access for minors entirely & more.
This is a BIG DEAL.

Unironically suggesting that you should have a robot babysit your kids is wild...

Good thread from a while ago about how solidarity and dock workers can change the world
United Farm Workers@UFWupdates
Student activists followed that grape harvest, all the way to the docks in Oakland. The longshoremen heard out the story of the grape workers and refused to load the grapes. Ten thousand tons of grapes rotted on the docks. (Companies that DID load them learned about boycotts.)

The pearl clutching about “looting” during a natural disaster is so cruel and nonsensical. Most of that food is getting thrown out. Half that shit will bring ruined. In a society that wasn’t morally bankrupt it would be legal esp since insurance will cover the loss for corps

I’m heartbroken that my friend @Tinu is no longer with us. She gave so much of herself and cared about the disability community deeply
I learned about this from an instagram post from her account
