Update - roomie was hospitalized last night. They originally thought he could come home today with the Hospital at Home program but any exertion leaves him unable to breathe. Mask up and get your vaccines ASAP, this is a bad one.

The epidemiologist told me “I’m so tired of this shit,” so I asked her if she meant Covid or measles or Ebola or plague or the headline “Sexually transmitted diarrhea is on the rise — and it’s morphing into a drug-resistant superbug,” and in response: she sighed heavily.

If Lauren Boebert's district here in Colorado can vote for a reproductive health amendment that permits abortion without it being tied to fetal viability, then any red district can—and you will never change my mind. We don't have to settle for crumbs. I wrote about it here.

Missouri’s Abortion Rights Amendment Fell Into the Fetal Viability Trap. Let’s Talk About It.
The viability standard failed us under <em>Roe v. Wade</em>. It doesn’t have to be the future of reproductive freedom—just ask Colorado.

It’s more than an insult it seems to me a profound violation of personhood. Just because someone is dead doesn’t mean we get to prop their likeness up to perform labor for us. The dead deserve better from us.

This month's @motherjones.com cover is astounding. Reposted with alt text:
Cover of the September-October issue of Mother Jones Magazine: a white background with the words "50 years of fearless journalism" in black print, centered above the name/logo of the magazine in large Bright Red. Below that in black, the words "the southern strategy — jim crow was dead and buried. Then came the Roberts court."

And then, framing those words, there are two sets of robes: to the left, the simple black robes of the Judicial Branch of the United States Government, as a Supreme Court Justice might wear; to the right, the white robes and hood of the KKK.

A white person's hand with cuff of business suit and shirt visible, reaches into the scene from the right, poised to grab the Klan robes.
