She clearly said the risk of pregnancy was due to policy decisions, not bad men. She obviously adores her husband and he adores her. One of the points is that even happily married couples who should be able to have sex can't have sex because the medical risk is too great because of decisions made by a government and not medical professionals and their patients.

They sound like people that would like to have children one day. But if the medical care isn't available they are gambling on o will they get: 1 - a healthy baby and two alive healthy parents 2 - a baby and a grieving dad (wife dead) 3 - only a grieving husband (wife and baby dead) 4 - no baby, grieving parents, and a wife with possible lifetime disability, and/or infertility 5 - a severely disabled baby that the parents get to watch suffer for days and weeks or longer before it dies of something we already know is incompatible with life.

The rest of it is trying to figure out how to support other women, through 4B or however possible, that are in other situations from her own.

Seriously. I managed a small rock band for a while. We got picked to tour with another band in some clubs in Eastern Europe. This was pre-Spotify, but Facebook strong.

We had no CD sales pre-tour to these places, just some views on youtube. We were relying a lot on the other band.

But the people that came to the shows?They knew the words and sang along and we had a great time.

Someone had our music and shared it before we got there. And we were grateful for those pirates!! And yes, we sold some merch and CDs at the shows.

If not for the pirates it would have been a much different experience with a lot less people showing up.

Our band never "made it" but it was still a successful tour and a helluva lot of fun. In large part because our music was pirated and shared ahead of time.

My son and (trans) daughter in law were already talking about leaving the country if 45 became 47. At least our city is one of the safe areas (for now)

I'm terrified for them and my friends/found family

Mourning is definitely happening today.

I mean, Kamala is running on policies that would help the little guy. And she might lose to guy who SA's women and said he could shoot someone in the street.

If she wins and we get a peaceful transfer of power, then I'll have more faith in your dream.

But right now, it seems like violence is what the masses crave over social reform.

Now I'm realizing, I don't pronounce the L in those words... Maybe they pronounce it liked mulled?

Ugh, why did I immediately jump to working with pigs? I'm still scarred.

You aren’t broken. It sounds like a broken man raised you.

I love this. It is so true too. My father and my husband were both raised by broken men and they both rose above it. My Dad still struggles with it, but my husband has been able to forgive and move on

I watched a fairly recent youtube video podcast with a traditional porn actor and an onlyfans performer. The actor (cherie deville) talked about all the control she had, regular testing, and overall safety. The OF performer had none of that and basically described her last on camera act that devolved into SA and extortion. From that, I got the impression there is still some ethical porn out there and a lot that's not since just anyone can create and push content now.
