These ads in my news feed are killing me...no Tumblr I don't fucking want to see ads for fucking Viagra for "him" when my very existence and privacy as a woman are now on the fucking GOP gerrymandered religious extremist SCOTUS chopping block! And why did you start posting them right now FFS!
Furthermore stop putting those manscaping ads in my feed when I keep asking you to hide them! I don't want to hear about "balls" every damn time I come on this hellsite!
And please fix the damn code at the bottom of your ads, its bigger than everything else in my news feed and it looks stupid! Don't you ever look at this stuff or check your work?!
I'm so sorry, not sorry. I'm so fucking triggered by this crap now. if they overturn Roe vs. Wade they are coming for everything else too. There will be blood.

Senate Majority Leader Schumer's Statement on Supreme Court's Bad Decisions
New York, N.Y. – Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) released this statement on the Supreme Court decision in Students for Fair Admissions v. President and Fellows of Harvard College and Students for Fair Admissions, Inc. v. University of North Carolina:
The Supreme Court ruling has put a giant roadblock in our country’s march toward racial justice. The consequences of this decision will be felt immediately and across the country, as students of color will face an admission cycle next year with fewer opportunities to attend the same colleges and universities than their parents and older siblings. These negative consequences could continue for generations, as the historic harms of exclusion and discrimination in education and society are exacerbated.
The Court’s misguided decision reminds us how far we still have to go to ensure that all Americans are treated equally. Nevertheless, we will not be daunted or deterred by this decision and we reaffirm our commitment to fighting for equal educational opportunities for all.

Writing some reflections by the light of the trashcan fire that is our world:
So I was talking with my therapist about how scary the world is and how angry I am as I feel helpless to stop the powers trying to turn my country into Gilead
The world is a trashcan fire
It’s always been a trashcan fire
Later in the session the Rodney King assault and the OJ Simpson trial came up and my therapist was saying how it was such a scary time, watching as no one was held accountable 
‘Such a scary time’
I took strange comfort in that statement
Because it shows life goes on
I feel guilty for saying so because I’m not one of the oppressed
I live in a sanctuary state
For many life ends
But love and joy will still live on
We briefly talked about Derry Girls
How it showed how the best and worst moments of your life can coincide
How we’re all living through something
We’re dancing at the talent show while people in our town search wreckage for survivors of a bombing
We’re dancing
Dance will live on
Persian father dancing at his daughters grave, having promised to dance at her wedding
And
My patient eagerly following me in the Y.M.C.A this morning
My patient in a mental hospital
‘It must be so sad’ and ‘It must be so hard to work in a mental hospital’
Sometimes it is, most of the time it’s not
Sometimes it give me this bit of beauty
This bit of comfort, of hope
I forgot to do it today, but most times I give him his medication I remind him how far he’s come in managing his diabetes
From insulin injections multiple times a day to just glucophage 
My coworker walked in with a smile on her face and a bounce in her step, easier day and holiday pay, and the the Lizzo x AristoCats video I showed her
SCOTUS terrifies as they rule more discrimination and oppression legal
They rule businesses can discriminate against queer people
And we keep on breathing through memes about not serving straights
We keep on breathing 
We’re still here - a lyric in a song I heard about an earthquake - a video I saw at the end of a terrible time living with my biological father - a time I got through
We keep on breathing
We have always been here
“That’s just the way of the world, it never ends till it ends then you start again” (depressing)
“That’s just the way of the world, it never ends till it ends then you start again” 
(Queers living on and fighting)

I wake to a ukulele ‘apology’ by an Internet personality we all tried to forget. Try not to breath in smoke air on my way to my boring corporate job, where I get an email a boring corporate email about the latest SCOTUS change. Just another day in 2023

This is based on the fact that the Supreme Court has recently made the world feel like it’s on fire, especially given it’s recent climate change ruling among everything else (like abortion rights)

Extremist GOP anti-abortion policies in red states are ironically making it difficult for women to give birth in such places.
Hospitals are increasingly closing down their obstetrics units because it’s becoming harder to find doctors who would want to work in areas where they could be prosecuted for providing women’s healthcare.
Brooke Macumber planned to have her fourth child in the same small hospital where two of her older children were born — the same place her husband had been delivered decades earlier.
[ ... ]
Bonner General Health in rural Sandpoint, Idaho, was shuttering its obstetrics unit after almost 75 years. Now, the closest hospital able to deliver her baby is more than an hour’s drive from her home.
[ ... ]
Access to obstetric services has been on the decline for years in rural areas, with at least 89 obstetrics units in rural U.S. hospitals closing their doors between 2015 and 2019, according to the American Hospital Association. More than half of rural counties — home to 2.2 million women of childbearing age — are now maternity-care deserts.
Some obstetricians say the problem has been exacerbated by the recent passage of laws criminalizing abortion, which can make recruiting and retaining physicians all the more difficult.
You can blame the overwhelmingly Republican Idaho legislature for the end of obstetrics at Bonner General Health. 
In a news release announcing the decision on Friday, Bonner General Health officials cited a shortage of pediatricians and decreasing number of deliveries. The release also pointed to the “legal and political climate” in a state where trigger laws banned nearly all abortions after the fall of the constitutional right to an abortion.
“Highly respected, talented physicians are leaving,” it said. “Recruiting replacements will be extraordinarily difficult. In addition, the Idaho Legislature continues to introduce and pass bills that criminalize physicians for medical care nationally recognized as the standard of care.
”Idaho has some of the strictest abortion laws in the nation. A trigger law passed in 2020, which the state Supreme Court allowed to take effect last summer, criminalizes the procedure in almost all cases, with possible defenses if a doctor determines it necessary to save the life of a pregnant woman or if the pregnant woman has reported rape or incest to law enforcement. A medical provider who violates the law can face felony charges punishable by two to five years in prison, along with suspension or revocation of their medical license.
Far right Republicans pretend that they are are pro-family. At the behest of extreme fundamentalist Christians they would turn women into little more than baby-making machines. But their laws may be making women reconsider having children because medical care for them is becoming more scarce in rural red states. 
The Idaho Republican Party platform — adopted in the summer of 2022, weeks after the U.S. Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision that allowed states to ban abortion — goes further. It declares that “abortion is murder from the moment of fertilization” and calls for its prevention “regardless of the circumstances of conception, including persons conceived in rape and incest.” The platform says the party supports criminalizing all abortions within the state.
Republicans legislators in red states are more interested in revoking three centuries of social progress which then results in serious healthcare issues for their constituents.
The loss of labor and delivery services in rural hospitals can be dangerous. An absence of obstetric care is significantly associated with increased preterm births and more births in facilities that lack staffs trained in labor and delivery, according to a 2018 study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. Some patients who have problems in pregnancy walk into centers without obstetrics departments, leaving emergency-medicine doctors to handle issues that may be beyond their expertise.
Gustafson said she fears that Idaho’s maternal death total — which more than doubled from 2019 to 2020, the most recent year for which data is available — will rise with one fewer unit of doctors trained in labor and delivery.
The US already had the highest maternal mortality rate in the industrialized world. The GOP is working to get that rate even higher.
These Republican restrictions on abortion are the products of GOP state legislatures. People tend to pay little attention to state government until it’s too late.
The very first step in ending GOP control is to find out who is representing you in the chambers of your legislature. This site can help with that.
Find Your Legislators Look your legislators up by address or use your current location.
Once you know who represents you, get active in electing Democrats and defeating fundamentalist anti-woman Republicans.
EDIT: Idaho Republicans are too busy bringing back firing squads to care about obstetric services for constituents. 
Idaho lawmakers approve bill that would allow execution by firing squad

Critical Rage Theory:
Pro-gun, Pro-life.
Ahahahahahahahaha! You ‘murricans are soooo funny!
“We don’t like murder unless it involves a trigger.”
“If abortion used ammunition, we might like it more.”
“Retro-active abortion is the only kind we support.”

I know this has been said by far more articulate people countless times before, but I’m angry as hell and will say it again until it’s cemented in all of our minds:
Far-right Christian Fundamentalists have effectively monopolized the narrative of how we talk about abortion rights in this country by framing the discourse as an ontological problem of “when life begins”— but as far as the STATE is concerned, that question is irrelevant. The state cannot and will not tell us when life begins the same way that they cannot tell us the purpose of the universe or the nature of consciousness. They’re big questions that philosophers have been batting around for centuries without conclusion, and they will keep doing that, I’m sure.
The right wants us to believe that an ontological problem is the question at hand, and that it’s what this ruling addresses (i.e. framing it as a “win for life!”) but IT IS NOT.
This is a question of state enforced pregnancy. And the ONLY relevant question is: should the state be able to force someone to carry a pregnancy to term? And: under what conditions can the state force someone to carry a pregnancy to term? It is a question of bodily autonomy.
We know this, but even when we talk about it with other pro-abortion people, we can still fall into dangerous territory if we discuss the issues at hand within the propagandistic framework of an intentionally bad-faith narrative.
