The @abortioncare.bsky.social meeting was bittersweet for me since it will be my last as a board member. I joined board in 2018 & they were one of the first orgs to believe in me/my work. If you have video of me singing Duran Duran Rio you can’t embarrass me. I’ll never repent anything in my life 🤷🏿‍♀️

Thank you @carlbergstrom.com for this work. There are some parts of science you can’t avoid. I HATED learning statistics via math equations AND once I moved to statistical packages I was grateful I could reason through what to do. If your brain works, use it or lose it 🤷🏿‍♀️

We live in a time of deep epistemic crisis, and everything we have depended on to make meaning and certify consensus reality is either suspect or in peril. It didn't have to be this way, and it doesn't have to stay this way.
