Just wanted to ask my followers / visitors for something... the recent discovery that the supreme court plans to overturn Roe v Wade has shocked my fiancee and I.
I beg everyone to look for ways to connect with local reproductive health support groups that help people access abortions and birth control as they prepare to do so against the law, support abortion rights activists as much as you're able, and to fight this rising fascism any way you can. Anti-abortion legislators have made it clear they're targeting gay marriage, interracial marriage, and unsegregated schools next, so even if you don't feel it affects you now, sooner or later it will, and it'll be far too late by then.
Voting is such a small part of the problem - the people who get elected need to have their feet held to the fire to actually fight for our freedoms.

The fact that literally no one else seems to be pointing this out around here is an expose.
Bless you, Jimbo.
I will die on this hill.
That being said pestering these politicians and too-powerful court is the best thing to do.
