Anyone who’s ever used emergency contraception or gains peace of mind by even having it on hand owes Dr Camp a debt of gratitude. What a force.
(Also, I just learned one reason the FDA rejected it at first was that they said the name Plan B was too glib!)
Great obit—no paywall.

I had a very small win at work today, which is very good because I went to back to back concerts this week and I may just immediately go to bed when I get home. After scooping litter, because I’m not a monster.

I paid an offensive amount for this drink. I paid an egregious amount for the tickets. The drink hurts more.
Arrived PPG for Paul McCartney. Guess how much these two drinks cost. 19 oz IPA. 700ml hard seltzer.

BREAKING: We won!
Today the 3rd Circuit Court ordered the @post-gazette.com to restore our contract it illegally tore up 5 years ago. That’s our health care, PTO, right to a 40-hr. work week, short-term disability and so much more we’ve struck for 3+ years.

Stopped to get iced tea at the local place b4 an errand. Barista asked my name and said, “oh, like on friends!” Excitedly. That’s the first time that’s ever happened.

Yesterday I went to brunch with my oldest friends. We then went to friends new period house (unpainted woodwork! Servants quarters!), then Al went home to give his kid the sex talk and Sun and I went and shopped local and I bought a cool hat. I got home 5 hours later. Awesome day.

I have a rule to not give money to religious organizations for just this reason. If you need help, it shouldn’t be predicated on which sky daddy you think is the right one.
Ruthfred Lutheran in Bethel Park, PA denied a long-time member financial assistance because she hadn’t attended Mass in several years. She was bed ridden.
So many churches take more than they give.

There is a lady on TikTok who is doing a social experiment: she is calling houses of worship and asking if they could help her get formula for her baby (telling them food bank is out). So far, 3/22 have offered help. One was a Black church and the other was a mosque.

I would like to remind people that are donating things to food banks and other places: please donate menstrual products too. You can ration out food to an extent, you can’t really do that for pads.

Fuck yeah, Shapiro!
Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.
