I was walking to work one morning oooo nearly 50 years ago with a mate who was working away from home and whose wife had just had their first kid. He said "you know Arthur, I couldn't work out why I've been feeling so good recently, and then I realized that I've not had to get up at 12 o'clock, 2 o'clock, 4 o'clock and 6 o'clock to look to the baby".
That was the point I briefly considered having kids and thought "Na".
I've noted before that above all things I like an easy life, and that was whhen I decided that I'm too selfish for any of that shit, and have not regretted it for a second. I've always been very careful since then (before, actually). It's random when it comes down to it but you take all the precautions you can and trust to luck for the rest.
Eta: don't get me wrong, I know that having kids is a wonderfully rewarding experience for people who want them, I'm just not one of those
Its amazing - it's almost as if you had choices, agency, and reproductive rights of your ownI was walking to work one morning oooo nearly 50 years ago with a mate who was working away from home and whose wife had just had their first kid.

I wouldn't be without my son, but I wouldn't want any more of them. I found myself looking at google images of Amy Coney Barrett for ages over the weekend, thinking 'how could you do this?', as if the answer might be in her pinched little face. Thomas, Kavanaugh and the others seemed like monsters anyway, but her.
I watched her confirmation hearings or whatever they're called, and she was so reasonable, so calm, so protective of legal virtue and ethics. You knew she was lying but hoped she wasn't. But she was. Fucking snake. I thought Christians frowned on bearing false witness, which is pretty much what she did to get that seat.
If she had anything about her, she'd have refused it, and said 'Thank you for the offer, but it undermines the court and my own reputation so I'll wait until after the election'. Who'd even want such a role under such sleazy circumstances? You wouldn't want your professional name mixed up in anything so grubby. Well, I wouldn't.

John Roberts Was Lobbying Kavanaugh to Save Roe. Then the Draft Opinion Leaked
A new report says the leak, which conservatives insist was the work of a rogue liberal, actually helped get Roe overturned

God doubtless told her that the Ninth Commandment of not bearing false witness was subordinate to Owning the Libs

I've heard it preached from the pulpit that people misunderstand that commandment and concepts of honesty and fair dealing only apply between Christians* and aren't owed to anyone else. It sounds oddly like what I've heard from Satanists.
* I've only heard this in Fundamentalist circles and not more mainline pastors.

Indeed, although the Satanists now active in the US pushing back against the "Christian" Fascists seem to be very honest and fair dealing.

Near as I can tell there's two types of Satanists. One branch seems to be atheists that are using concepts of Satan to push back against the more radical Christian Nationalists. The others tend toward kids with a fetish for dark concepts trying to practice ceremonial forms of Satanism.

I saw on Reddit that this is the opposite of what it appears, and actually protects abortion rights. Can't see it myself though. I'll have a hunt.hmm maybe the right in America attacking library's and cutting funds to public schools is part of the plan
look at this shite from Kansas regarding removing state protection for rights to abortion services

Kansas abortion vote:

Victory for the pro-choice side. Just under 60% vote to preserve women’s bodily liberty, just over 40% vote for the handmaid’s tale:
Kansas abortion vote: Major victory for pro-choice groups
In a major victory for pro-choice groups, the conservative state keeps abortion rights in place.

If every state gave their citizens a say on this matter I’d guess that close to 100% of states would preserve abortion rights.

Surprised that it was "this close" to be honest, given that Pro choice are often touted as being in the 70-80% bracket, unless that's an over all figure. (some states may vary)

I take back my previous comment. Apparently there are 13 states where the majority favour banning abortion. All of those have trigger laws meaning abortion is already illegal in them.
Do Americans Support Abortion Rights? Depends on the State.
Polling suggests an overturning of Roe v. Wade might not carry political consequences in states that would be likeliest to put in restrictions.

Would have been higher if they hadn't tried to bamboozle people with the wording of the proposal.

Having read what was on the ballot, it was a bit "don't do no parking here" wasn't it

Whoever wrote that proposal needs to be given a thick ear. They couldn't have made it more obvious that they were trying to obfuscate things.

It's a pretty conservative state, so I think we should just call it a win. If it's a case of securing abortion rights state-by-state, that's one more state chalked off.

Aye. Conservative yep. As a weather vane I'd be hopeful that even conservative states don't want to roll back body rights/autonomy. The most conservative states already have the trigger laws in place
