#abortion rights are human rights

[maebymaedayidk]

I've been seeing a lot of "delete your periode tracking apps" coming up due to the recent life-ending, gut-wrenching news BUT

There IS an option. Clue is a German based tracking app and the US and NO JURISDICTION over them, which means they that can PROTECT YOUR DATA.

As someone with a shitty fucking uterus who had to spit out 500 bucks under my Canadian health care system for birth control that would finally allow me to live WITHOUT debilitating pain I know how fucking important it is to TRACK THAT SHIT.

Keep a book!! Use apps like clue that aren't based in the US!! Pen and fucking paper I don't CARE but please, uterus owners-

Birth control and the right to an abortion are basic fucking human rights and I know you are so EXHAUSTED and TERRIFIED, I am too. But please, please, please remember to take care of yourself. In all of the ways. It sucks that you have to do this but you have to adapt, you have to stay so fucking vigilant, you have to protect yourself and take care of your mind and body.

Please DO NOT neglect yourself out of fear and hopelessness because your government is neglecting you. Protect yourself, protect your body. And DO NOT STOP FIGHTING.

"I do not believe that just because you're opposed to abortion, that makes you pro-life. In fact, I think in many cases, your morality is deeply lacking if all you want is a child born but not a child fed, not a child educated, not a child housed....

That's not "pro-life." That's "pro birth.""

Somehow I’m feeling every emotion and no emotion all at once.

I am only here and thriving right now because people had access to safe and legal abortion. Like I don’t mean that in a vague, politically uplifting way, I mean I literally would not be here if my mom wasn’t able to get a safe abortion when she needed one, if other people in my family weren’t able to get a safe abortion, and I certainly would not be thriving if I did not have access to safe birth control, plan b, and abortion.

I guess the prosecutor needs to be schooled on where most early miscarriage happen. I'll give you a hint: the bathroom.

The baby was never alive. This isn't a case of a still birth. That poor woman didn't give birth to a fully form baby that might have survived birth. She miscarried a foetus. And now she's being punished for doing what women have done for millenia. I bet if she had been white, the authorities would have left her alone. Soon, women will be jailed for murder after a miscarriage like they are in El Salvador.

So to all those "pro-life" morons:

23 Republican Senators & 124 Congressmen signed an amicus brief to the Supreme Court asking for a 50 state ban on mifepristone, a drug safer than tylenol that is standard treatment for abortion & miscarriages, "due to safety concerns". The brief DARES to argue that banning the life saving drug would save women from 'reproductive control'. (x) These 147 people would rather have women die of sepsis than let women control their own bodies. If your representatives are on this list, call them and tell their office you will be voting against them in the next election because they asked SCOTUS to throw the US medical drug system into chaos at the cost of American lives.

Conservatives: 12 year olds are too young to know that they're gay

Also conservatives: they are old enough to give birth

No woman can call herself free who does not control her body. No woman can call herself free until she can choose consciously whether she will or will not be a mother.

What a fucking year this week has been.

[study-coffee-chicago]

Crazy thing is how men bitch about not wanting to pay child support, but at the same time they don’t want their wife to get an abortion bc (and this a direct quote from someone I know) “the woman is carrying his seed.”

Like, just say you’re a fucking a misogynist and GTFO

Same dude also asked me what I have to be depressed about bc I’m so young and privileged

Just look how far we’ve come in 50 years!
