Also, did you know that the leading cause of death for pregnant people is not a medical diagnosis? It’s homicide. Most often at the hands of a current/former partner and with a gun (link below). If this government truly cared about maternal health we would regulate guns, not abortion access.

I matched with someone on a dating app today who asked me if I’ve been reading anything good lately and I said well I just started a book on the history of AIPAC and the impact of the pro-Israel lobby on electoral politics and they unmatched, so. Yeah. Doing great

I feel like there’s still hope for humanity because I was just in Kroger and there was a shelf stocker robot gliding down the aisle and me and this other girl were just looking at the robot and looking at each other and looking at the robot and then we both said “I don’t like it” at the same time

Part of the problem is that if you were to have the proper reaction to even 10% of this it would leave you unable to function normally. If nothing else you end up repressing stuff just because fully experiencing it is impossible to do all at once.
