Abortion, racism, Twitter link 

A reminder that one of pro-lifers actual reasons for overturning Roe vs Wade is because they are racists and they believe it will increase the number of white babies in the US by 60%

What can I do? So many things 

So if you're thinking "what can I possibly do right now", good news, there are answers:
1) When you earn those dollars, send some of them over to abortionfunds.org/ who will get them to the places they need to go.
2) Check in with your local clinic which has, or may no longer support, reproductive services and ask what the heck they need. Type in "local women's health clinic" into Duckduckgo or similar search engine to find it.
3) Tell your congresscritter what's up fiscalnote.com/find-your-legis
4) Most important, meet up with other folks in your area interested in providing services to clinics across the country. It may be hard in your area so check in with your local DSA or Food Not Bombs group and ask who's organizing help in your area.
You have actionable things you can do! It takes time and it's always hard to start new projects, but you can do it!

Aging Irish lady chewing a cigarillo and looking at something on your phone with a shit-eating grin, I wish you a wonderful day.

It's a rare and precious thing that can touch your heart so deeply as to wet your eyes with joy, and I'm lucky and grateful that I get to have this in my life.

@srol Used to be one of the really big fandoms, some 20, 25 years ago. Honestly, after the first half dozen books the series kind of nosedives, but dang, where it's good, it's really good. And its universe is still delicious to exist in a couple hours at a time.

It's been a hard week, and it's a strange time for frivolity, but, if words like or Weyr mean something to you, then you are cordially invited to the Benden Hatching on Sunday.

Hugops to @wikidot@twitter.com. This sounds like a spicy one.

Sci-fi thought: if you actually have gravity generators, your spaceship does not require a hull.

Give the Dragonriders of Pern license to , you cowards.
