i was taken advantage of by a man who held enough leverage over my whole family that i was terrified to protest.
i didn’t want any of this.
i can’t afford to be pregnant. i can’t afford to have a child. i can’t afford any of this.
my only option for terminating is finding a way to go to jackson, mississippi for four days to visit the only clinic in mississippi. my life is over if i dont.
i work hard at a terrible, dangerous job, literally putting my life on the line at work. i saved money for the procedure itself since i found out, but i can’t afford a trip to jackson…..i just cant. i have to pay for lodging, a bus ticket, transportation…. mississippi only allows first trimester abortions..im already at 13 weeks and time isn’t on my side.
if someone was pregnant during thanos’ snap and they died would their baby just like flop on the ground or is an unborn baby not considered its own person in this situation
finally some good philosophical scenarios on this website
Likewise, could an unborn baby suddenly disappear in the snap? What would that leave behind - would the placenta still be attached? Or given when people disappeared, their clothes went too, could it be considered that the unborn baby is wearing its mother?
When my boyfriend says “wig” in front of the cashier at Michaels while we’re buying Christmas ornaments and I know our cover is blown as a gay couple and he just outed himself as a bottom
You were two men buying Christmas ornaments in a craft store. There was never a cover believed that you were a couple of straight bros
I was at the store today looking at lemonade and this old guy comes up to me, and initially I was expecting him to be a creep, but then he was like
“You look like someone who would appreciate this. Why do cows have hooves and not feet?” and I didn’t know, so he said “Because they lack toes (lactose)”
And I couldn’t help but laugh, and so he’s like “Hey if I can make someone laugh it’s worth it. What do you call a bear with no teeth?” and I slapped his arm and was like “A gummy bear!”
Then he asked “Why did the cowboy go to the petstore to buy a doxon terrier?” so I said I didn’t know and he was like “He wanted to get a long lil doggie.”
I told him I was gonna go home and tell my dad these jokes cuz he likes this kinda stuff, so before he left he started pulling out his wallet and was like “Hold on, I’m going to show you my pride and joy. I never get to and I show it off every chance I get.”
I assumed it was going to be his grandkids or something, but then he hands me this piece of paper that was cut out of an add for some kind of soda and it just says “Pride and Joy” on it.
The dude was super funny, so that was a good high light of my day. When we said goodbye I glanced down and saw he was holding a bottle of straight vodka.
I think I just met Grunkle Stan.
Hey we don’t live anywhere near each other but a few weeks ago I had a VERY similar experience??? An old guy came into my work place, thought he was gonna be a creep, but he just started telling me jokes (different ones than yours, but I can’t remember them) and then SHOWED ME HIS PRIDE AND JOY. I THOUGHT IT WAS GONNA BE A DOG (work at a pet store). Like is there just some national old man club where they make plans to go brighten people’s days???
doctors performing c sections during births without informed consent
eugenics via sterilization requirements for trans people to change documentation
eugenics via forced/nonconsenting sterilization of disabled people
eugenics via forced/nonconsenting sterilization of people of color
eugenics via selective abortion of disabled fetuses (fetuses with Down syndrome especially) (these are abortions sought by people who WANT to be pregnant–but only with non-disabled children, when there’s absolutely no guarantee that a non-disabled child won’t become disabled)
if your reproductive rights activism doesn’t incorporate ALL OF THE ABOVE, i want no part of it.
