I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it a thousand times: The treatment for an ectopic pregnancy, a septic uterus, or a miscarriage that your body won’t release is abortion. If you can’t get those abortions, you die. You. Die.

1,367 days ago Lisa MacLeod froze the services waitlist for autistic kids, throwing families into a mental health crisis.
While the kids keep on waiting, she’s got the luxury of taking a long mental health break, that’s pretty rich.

I said to my wife "Do you think anyone will commit suicide because they could not get an abortion?"
She instantly replied "yes."
Then she added "there will be all those boyfriends and husbands that murder them because they couldn't get one too" and that shook my fucking world.

The Catholic Church will not baptize a stillborn child, so, I guess they too believe life starts at birth.

Dear America,
Please remember that if all votes had counted equally in 2016, Trump would never have become President and he wouldn't have been able to fill the US Supreme Court with extras from The Handmaid's Tale.
The electoral college is going to get women killed.

This part. Stop calling our leaders “The Taliban” and understand that they are Christian Fundamentalists who want to bend this nation in the image of a violent, heteronormative patriarchy where no one has rights but them. Period.

So, to sum up the Supreme Court’s week: life begins at conception and ends in a mass shooting.

Make no mistake. I heard from a Christian family member; they are gunning for theocratic rule. Every hard earned right is on the chopping block. They told me my queer relatives are a “sin.” These religious fanatics must be stopped. This is a war for the truest sense of America.
The Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade decision might be a “blaring red alert” for same-sex marriage and contraception rights
“I would honestly be lying if I said I weren't afraid that it could all go away.”

Forced birth in a country with:
—No universal healthcare
—No universal childcare
—No paid family & medical leave
—One of the highest rates of maternal mortality among rich nations
This isn't about "life." It's about control.

If ending abortion was popular among the American people, Supreme Count justices wouldn't lie about their position during their confirmation hearings.

A reminder that one of Doug Ford's newly-reelected MPPs said this in 2019:
"...we pledge to fight to make abortion unthinkable in our lifetime."
Canadians, we must not be smug and think this cannot happen here too.

Protesters show up outside SCOTUS homes & suddenly Congress gives them high priced security. A 70 year old black poll worker in Georgia gets death threats from MAGA Trumpers and she's on the run for 2 months and the FBI basically says figure it out. This is why people are angry

Stop saying “religious” when you mean “evangelical Christianity”. Stop lumping all religions into one bucket when you talk about religious harm from one specific institution from one specific branch of Christianity. Call it out. Name it.

If you voted for Trump because he's not a politician, then I hope your next colonoscopy is done by a plumber.

“Freedom” is thrown around by populists like there’s some dial they’d just turn up. If freedom were measurable in units, it would be on a scale like Freedom House. Canada has a score of 98%. Not much room left on that dial. If you think 🇨🇦 is not free, you’ve been duped. #cdnpoli
