As France goes forward, we continue to go backwards. 🤷‍♂️
Today, French lawmakers unanimously approved a bill exonerating women punished for abortion before it was legalized in 1975.
This "is an act of justice toward those thousands of lives shattered by unjust laws," said Aurore Bergé, minister-delegate for gender equality.
France exonerates women convicted over abortions before legalisation
Between 1870 and 1975, more than 11,660 people were convicted for performing or seeking an abortion, according to official estimates.

Four years, over a million Russian casualties, and yet Russia occupies far less Ukrainian land than it did one month into its full-scale invasion, when it had only tens of thousands of casualties.

This failure will be studied in military academies for the next decades

Feels to me like the last quote here is more devastating and incriminating than even the birthday book and the photos and the rest.

My favorite tyrant joke: a man comes every day and peers at the front page of the newspaper without buying it.

The newspaper vendor says, "what are you looking for?"
"An obituary."
"Obituaries aren't on the front page."
"This one will be."

How right Rob Reiner was/is. Another force of good leaves our world whilst the most evil remain to continue deliberately destroying everything around us. It’s infuriating and devastating.

Ahmed al Ahmed, a Lebanese Muslim who owns a Sydney fruit shop, risked his life to disarm one of the Bondi Beach shooters.

His courage gives me hope amidst the horror and darkness. Muslims and Jews are not enemies. Our futures, in the Middle East and beyond, are intrinsically bound.

A true hero.

I spoke in Indiana days before the Republicans refused Trump’s gerrymandered map. Everyone I talked to said the Rs weren’t going to pass the map.

Know why?

He threatened them. Even Republicans are tired of that shit. You’re going to see more of it too. Mark it. The fever is breaking.
