My heart is broken. Gavin was my brother, my partner in crime (and food) and my comic conspirator. I will see you in a bit Gavin. Tell the gang I will see them in a bit. Betty! It’s just you and me now. pic.twitter.com/se4fwh7G1G

I wanted to stay away from disturbing news, but that can’t be done.

The judge is now just as guilty as the offender! Who is he to opine on a woman trying to get on with her life?!https://t.co/xPMTLmm8wE

The PA legislature voted to advance a bill by Rep Frank Ryan, that would essentially fine women who miscarry, force them to apply for a "Fetal Death Certificate, then require a formal burial or cremation of the remains. This is where we’re at. https://t.co/qcBsQE2ZKA

This is the start of the criminalization of miscarriage.

My mom had 13 miscarriages before she had me.
This will kill women. It will discourage getting medical care and lead to septic incidents. It will lead to criminal investigations into "what did she do to cause this"
“They want to criminalize miscarriages. They want women to file a "fetal death certificate" for any & all miscarriages. And they want it to be a public document. Think about that. They want to make *public* these traumatic experiences of loss. It is the history of the GOP to

Seems as though Gigi Gaskin of @hatWRKS was at the insurrection. Stakes just got a little higher here, Stetson. How about a statement of condemnation and a promise to not do business with her? Check out this screen grab from her IG dated January 8 for a little motivation. pic.twitter.com/DKrAoCJJwO

The January 6th attack was a warning. Today, Republicans block a bi-partisan investigation so they can defend the Big Lie & appease insurrectionists. And they've pushed 400+ anti-voter bills + new laws to subvert elections at the state level. We must defend our democracy. Now.

Great post!
When I was a kid I was fascinated by the concept of a bottomless pit. I decided it was illogical after I learned a bit about geology and the earth’s core and what not. But as I continue to look for a lower limit of Republican evil I am coming back around to the bottomless pit theory.
It is affecting MAGAts and fundies to the extent they’re not vaccinated.
But it’s also disproportionately affecting black and hispanic communities because they too have lower vaccination rates.
The virus doesn’t care about schedules or politics or needs or anything.
My reaction, because I have a Bad Attitude, would be to help the latter groups in every way possible, and send thoughts and prayers to the first group.
