Torrie Edwards, Ph.D.

i’ve never gotten here before

NC Republicans just passed an #abortionban based on gaslighting, disinformation, and willful ignorance of actual medicine. If #NorthCarolina goes like so many other states that overreached on #abortion, I expect the GOP will come to regret it next election year. #ncpol #ncga

Pedro Pascal as Easter Eggs. A thread.

@heyschmade This is his greatest portrait yet

What are the best (worst) examples of DARVO you’ve ever seen? (Personally, or in public life). I need some more really good examples for something I’m working on.
