Apropos of this: if you’ve never read Philip Roth’s “The Plot Against America,” there’s a DC tour guide, Mr Taylor, who for me is one of the most indelible and quietly heroic characters in modern literature.

An underappreciated part of the two abortion pill cases filed last week: they target not just mifepristone, but also *misoprostol.* That's the second drug in a typical regimen, but it's effective on its own. Louisiana says the cases would prevent mailing "back-up drugs" @autonomynews.co

Ahh, unlucky mate. Turns out trans healthcare is still the scientifically and morally correct thing to do. I assume you'll be apologising now? Not sure why you thought the last 5 years would be different to the nearly 100 before that but ok
Some prick from Twitter exactly 5 years ago saying "I do hope in five years when this has been consigned to the rubbish heap that your apology to the legions of mutilated 20somethings will be fulsome and abject, Katy. You're going to have a LOT of explaining to do."
