Reproductive rights activists are alarmed over a pledge by acting AG Todd Blanche to institute nationwide abortion restrictions. “Abortion bans do not stop abortion. What they do is they kill and harm the people who need them,” says Amy Littlefield, The Nation's abortion access correspondent.

Personally don't recommend these. As the article notes, these properties are typically achieved through PFAS, which can shed carcinogens in your home (which you then inhale) or come out in the wash (polluting waterways for decades). Will try to do a thread on how to treat stains in the wash.

Contrary to public perception a huge % of pregnant teenagers in the 1990s were impregnated by adult men. The younger they were, the larger the average age gap between mother and father was. Fixing teen pregnancy was in part a clampdown on statutory rape. That's what conservatives want to reverse.

It really wasn't enough though, because in many men, their desires to act however they want with no consequences outweighs the principles they were supposed to be learning and molding themselves around. Revolutionaries just aren't really revolutionary if they can't first revolutionize themselves.

This is one of the strangest aspects of AI discourse to me. This article *twice* asserts that anyone who claims they don’t use AI tools is lying. Which feels like … such weird projection?

Mastery of banal style is losing its usefulness - but language is more powerful than ever. It's up to the writer to do what machines can't
Thu 2 Apr 2026 08.00 EDT

There seem to be two options facing writers. The first is not to use AI at all, or to pretend not to use it. The other is to automate their writing practice.
The first is retrograde and fearful. The second forgets that art is a human practice, made by people for people. As becomes obvious when you actually try to use AI to make art, this is a false binary. Already a few paths through the slop are emerging.

The fact that machines can generate meaning in the first place is an existential curiosity. But for writers, and for young writers in particular, Al has a more practical significance. A recent survey found that 86% of college

students use AI regularly, which means that 14% are lying to survey-takers. The
ordinary business of quotidian language - writing student essays, emails, memos, all the granular sentence-by-sentence work that once trained writers in their craft - is dissolving. Mastery of style, the laborious gift of the skilled writer, is being automated.

There's a lot of conservative politics rooted in the fundamental idea that accommodations of difference are "special treatment" at constant risk of being poached by the "undeserving", and that suffering is both an inevitable fact of life and virtuous. It's a contemptible social rot.

The animating force at the heart of US conservatism currently is incandescent rage at the mere idea of women's autonomy and independence. An image of a smiling woman who looks insufficiently deferential for their tastes riles them up enough to tear up the social contract.

The picture from

tbh the stark reality is that for nonbinary gender existence to gain much stronger mass traction among the public, it's basically imperative that people also 'allow the body to be nonbinary' i.e. question sexing of the body itself. there's basically no way binary sex & nonbinary gender can coexist
