Yesterday the Supreme Court debated whether or not states can deny women life-saving care. Today, Yahoo thinks the importance of that news is on par with a "Masked Singer reveal." If you're wondering how the dehumanization of women becomes normalized, this is it
A lot of Democrats get flummoxed when Republicans start talking about abortions later in pregnancy. Not @JessicaValenti. I hope politicians and everyone will listen to her explain how these abortions actually make one of the most powerful cases against Dobbs.

Young people are just about the only thing giving me hope these days

I don't know how to raise my daughter in a country where the Supreme Court is debating how many organs are ok for women to lose before providing healthcare
"a lot of people are dying in a lot of places", so you might as well doubt the sincerity of people who happen to care about any of them in particular, of course.
@carrie_moley A lot of people are dying in a lot of places. I don't recall colleges cancelling classes because of Bosnia or Rwanda.
Gotta admire the message disciple of these student activists; gotta roll your eyes at the cynicism of a writer who went in there to trap them and was offended that they had the gall to not fall for it.
I have always wanted to be a mother. I have always wanted to have kids. Because of these laws and because of this court— I have shelved those dreams indefinitely.
I don't know how to raise my daughter in a country where the Supreme Court is debating how many organs are ok for women to lose before providing healthcare
@JessicaValenti I could be wrong! God knows it happens often.
The @USSupremeCourt is hearing the arguments for Moyle vs. U.S. right now at this live stream. So much is at stake! Patients with pregnant complications are being air-lifted out of Idaho because doctors face prosecution for providing the necessary care. supremecourt.gov/oral_arguments…
Reminder: Fetuses can't consent to health care. Under EMTALA, the patient is the pregnant person. Not their "unborn child." Pass it on.
I honestly can't believe that part of my job now is to say things like "fetuses can't consent to healthcare." And "fetuses don't need lawyers because they can't sign retainer agreements"
Mass graves of slaughtered Palestinians, including kids. Yet the media is far more focused on the protests against the Israeli onslaught which caused these mass graves in the first place. The world is upside down

The racist harassment of Muslim students by members of Columbia’s faculty is unprofessional, unethical, and morally abhorrent. But as with so many other incidents of adult and administrative malfeasance, the solidarity these students show their classmates has been heroic.
During Jummah (Friday prayer) this afternoon, Columbia University students formed a human shield with blankets to provide privacy to those students participating in prayer after a video showing students praying on the lawn began circulating on social media 📸
Then every two years there's the equally pathetic follow-up piece about how all these miserable people get together for dinner parties where they talk about how it's not fair that people don't like them just because they're insufferable (and how that's also a national crisis)
"In my youth I considered myself a progressive but now I've grown old & find myself surrounded by young people who are more progressive than me & who criticize me. This is a national crisis." -- every version of this piece is more pathetic than the last but they just keep coming

Eric Adams not only revived police units that were disbanded in 2020 for their disproportionate abuse against Black and brown New Yorkers, he revived stop and frisk. Since he became mayor, 97% of all stops and searches have been on Black and Latino New Yorkers.
Wouldn't be shocked if this was quietly happening a lot. My group of girlfriends was going to meet up for a long weekend in Austin this year but moved it to a different state because two of will be pregnant at the time. expressnews.com/news/texas/art…
