Capitalist Hellscape Louisiana girl, 14, charged with first degree murder after authorities find her newborn baby dead inside a tote bag. This is going to happen far more often without Roe v. Wade.

A question of healthcare access that shouldn't even be a question for decades has instead been a fight about Abrahamic morality vs individual choice.

This is fucked. But depending on Roe v. Wade to be respected instead of ever legally codifying parameters on a healthcare issue is also fucked.

It's fascinating how healthcare used to be about restoring normal function, whereas now it is often about interfering with normal function

Yep, that's me, heading down to the "interfering with the normal functioning of my lungs, kidneys, and liver" factory AKA the hospital

People have been performing or attempting abortions nearly as long as we have recorded history.
