Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

It's definitely deliberate: [link]

I stand corrected. And plunged into a combination of anger and depression.

Thrive to spite them

It is deliberate. They keep trying to frame this as a religious issue and that it's not about women. Just like when Santorum back pedaled on his comments that Griswold v Connecticut was a bad decision. He tried to claim it wasn't about birth control, it was about states rights.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I have outrage fatigue.

Good grief, me too. I was getting the outrage back until the current ultrasound-dildo-rape and men-know-best outrages, and now I'm exhausted again.

I had the transvaginal ultrasound before I got my Mirena, and it made me cry. I can't deal with how terrible it would be for someone whose experience was worse than mine. And how those horrible people just don't care. Or else they want it to make a woman feel awful because how dare she?!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Thank you Andy Borowitz:

I can only hope this backfires on them. I want to weep for my country if it doesn't.

Reading The Hunger Games isn't helping with any of my outrage either. It may be time to take a break and catch up on Revenge.

Heh.

RIP Gary Carter. Damn.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Well, they were right - it's not about women's health.

At least, notin the way we usually mean it.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I saw someone captioning it, "casting agents for RL Handmaiden's Tale."

It definitely needs a mockery meme.
