The last article I read about this said that doctors were taking days to figure out how to handle this legally because of abortion restrictions, even though they knew it was nonviable. I have personally AmA'd out of a hospital and gone to a different one for a different health situation because I didn't trust the doctors, and it turned out to have been the exact right decision.
Women are not taken seriously by doctors, and black women are really not taken seriously, nor respected as human beings, by doctors in the US. There's a million variables to this situation that none of us know, and we shouldn't act like we know. But sure , let's just judge this woman for how she reacted to a fucking horror movie situation that should have never occurred in the first place, especially in a "free" country with all the necessary healthcare technology readily available.
So why did this happen to her when she was at home, by herself? Because doctors were afraid of the legal repercussions of performing a medically necessary procedure. That's all it comes down to. Not that hard.
At this point, anyone blaming this woman or any other woman in a similar situation as if they brought something like this on themselves, is just a misogynist looking for an outlet for their hatred of women. We all know it, but someone's got to say it.
"We believe in democracy in Texas...except when our feelings get hurt."
Salmerón added that one surprising finding was that the relatively small association between digital reading for leisure and comprehension stands regardless of the type of reading people engage in, across both social media and educational websites such as Wikipedia. “We expected that the latter would be much more positively associated with text comprehension, but our data says that is not the case.”
My daughter still has to do homework during Chanukkah every night but gets the week of Christmas off
Was just thinking about this with my college, as finals week is during Chanukkah. I don't think concessions should be made for any religion, but it's definitely a blatant sign that christians think they are more important than everyone else and that it's essentially already the state religion in the US.
thought killing a president would make Jodie Foster notice him.
I have to wonder if that's some narrative they came up with to prevent copy cats.
I know it's a conspiracy thought, but at some point I realized the government has zero actual reason to be transparent with the public. They could really just say whatever they want and none of us would ever know the difference.
I truly don't understand the college students who are paying insane tuition to be there to get a degree and they couldn't care less. I don't know if their parents are forcing them to go to college or what.
I just don't get it. I must be missing something really important about what makes her stand out as different from any other guitar-playing radio pop woman singer-songwriter since the early 2000's. Why didn't Michelle Branch get as popular? I don't dislike her, just not my taste I guess.
The whole article could have just been this:
it remains unclear how encouraging people to vote can be construed as election interference.
But one of the weirdest things is how conservatives are totally obsessed with how many people she's dated. One of the tweets in the article says she "runs through men like water." Ok? Even if it were somehow unacceptable to date multiple people throughout the whole of your twenties, god forbid, exactly what in the fuck does it have to do with "election interference."
I love how every male conservative leader can be married 5 times while paying for abortions for their girlfriends, but regular dating is where they draw the line.
I feel like I'm in the twilight zone when people talk about this issue, like people watching all of this and still defending Israel are all living on another fucking planet. Some literally 1984 "war is peace/we've always been at war with East Asia" shit.
They didn't say "any young people."
They pointed out that 18-29 year olds have historically had the lowest voter turnout of any group. It was higher in 2020 than in the previous election year, but overall, not many young people vote. Hyperbole sucks.
