Kathleen Stock has written an article against "abortion permissiveness". She claims abortion requires "justification" saying the state should limit "unacceptable decision-making" by women about their own bodies.
This is who anti-trans activists proclaim as the feminist thought leaders of our time.

look at him. the most indestructible little weirdo who decided to charge a raccoon and came out practically unscathed. I had to get stabbed with needles six times, so he got a rabies booster stab too even though he probably didn't need it.

ever since I got covid in 2022 I have a bout of coughing after eating more often than not. fortunately that's the only notable long-term thing I got.
(I do suspect I already had mild MCAS and it may have been slightly exacerbated, which may actually be causing the post-food cough.)

I was my partner's and his mom's ride to and from the no kings event, and I went to do some shopping in the interim. We just got home, and it's about the time I'd normally be getting out of bed or maybe drinking my "morning" coffee.
