True story.
One night a woman came to our Catholic hospital ER in Central Texas because she was sexually assaulted.
The doctor prescribed Plan B because the victim didn’t want to carry her rapist’s baby.
Our hospital refused to dispense it. Poor woman had to wait two days to get it from CVS.
This is the reality
Excuse my life, but what the fuck is a Catholic hospital?
“Welcome good sirs to my church of the Bristol Stool Chart!”
Sorry shitstain, other parts of the country actually allow women to have rights.
Go fail at saving some kids from drowning and let the civilized people do their thing.
Sorry, we don’t handle verdicts from rogue nations
Poor boy has had a rough week, first his wife says she wants a divorce because of his adultery and now he finds out he’s impotent in a different state.
Being a dog fearing christian is tough in this day and age, especially when you’re actually a shitbag.
To wit: there’s a NY state law that makes it illegal for state officials to help shit-ass states like Texas follow through on legal threats like this within the context of the NY legal system. This is that law working as intended.
Or more succinctly: lick my taint, Ken Paxton, you fucking imbecilic psychopath.
it’s only a matter of time before the supreme court forces new york to comply; i hope that the doctor is prepared for this and finds another way to help with protecting themself.
when slavery was a thing, the shitty laws from shitty states to reclaim escaped slaves took primacy over laws from abolitionist states that would have protected them due to the supreme court and it took a war to overcome it.
The US Supreme Court can’t currently do what you say without a law change at the federal level.
Also, the 13th Amendment which abolished slavery (mostly) was passed by Congress on January 31, 1865, and ratified on December 6, 1865 after the end of the US Civil War.
i hope that the doctor is prepared for this and finds another way to help with protecting themself.
The airport code is YYZ but driving up from Buffalo is cool too.
You’d think a world-class corporate news organiztion like Associated Press would be able to shoehorn that into the title somehow. And yet.
What are you talking about???
In journalism, headlines have always been used to try to entice people into reading the article. Not to give the entire story so that people won’t need to read the article.
😐
It’s literally the second paragraph of the article. You’d think a literate person with time to write inane comments would be able to read the article. And yet.
We’re gonna do this again?
Hey! THE HEADLINE and THE BODY OF THE ARTICLE are two different things. Can you grasp the concept?? Does your inanity know no bounds?! Have you, at long last, no sense of decency, sir?!
Hey! THE HEADLINE and THE BODY OF THE ARTICLE are part of the same body of work. If you want all the context, read all of the work.
If they put all the context in the title, the title would just be the article and would need its own summary.
Indeed. The Title of the book and the Entirety of the Book are part of the same work! If you want to comment on the title of the book you MUST read the entirety of the book!
The trailer for the movie and the entire movie are part of the same body of work. If you want to comment on the trailer for the movie you must see the entire movie first.
The appetizer and the dinner are part of the same body of work if you want to comment on the appetizer you must eat the entire dinner first.
Etc, Etc.
If they put all the context in the title, the title would just be the article and would need its own summary.
The title HAS a context without anything else being done. That is the point. The title (while being part of the same body of work) is alone. And here’s the thing: most people don’t see the whole movie before taking something away from the trailer. (Super-seekrit PRO TIP: The people who create the trailers know this and use it to their advantage.)
Comparing a movie that takes an hour+ to watch to an article that it would take you 5 minutes to read tops to get enough context to not make dumb comments. Yeah, totally comparable.
People like you are why I have to send multiple work emails after I’ve already mentioned all the relevant details in the first message, all because I didn’t put the whole gods damned message in the subject line.
Take a hooked on phonics course if reading is that hard for you.
FFS I’m not talking about the article for a reason. How (or why) you refuse to understand that is beyond me.
Yeah yeah hooked on phonics, ace repartee. Anyway.
Not rhetorical question: why don’t more people buy and sell abortion pills on the dark web?
Because then it is not regulated. Meaning you’ll have scammers selling fake abortion pills, which will do nothing. Or even worse, pills with something else that could get you addicted.
People are assholes, especially in a capitalist system. Regulation is necessary here.
pills with something else that could get you addicted.
It’s hard to get addicted to an unknown substance you’ve taken unwillingly and don’t know what it is in order to get another hit.
I’d be more considered about psychos selling literal poison.
If you crave that abortion pill again, you’ll know.
Unexpected trips don’t tend to be fun. Scary trips don’t tend to lead to addiction.
Also, drugs are a lot more expensive than abortion pills, so whomever is putting the drugs in them is losing a lot of money doing so.
thats what happened to me chews on a handful of abortion pills
Fraud?
as a drug addict let me tell you that black markets are not something to strive for economically
What choice do people have in a fascist theocracy?
“While I’m not entirely sure how things work in Texas, here in New York, a rejection means the matter is closed,” Bruck wrote in a letter to Texas officials.
I imagine Paxton blew a gasket over that. Lmao.
Fugitive Slave Acts all over again.
“State’s rights for me, federalism for you.”
- every conservative state
Why are texan men so red and have squeaky voices?
Alcoholism? Not sure on the voices.
They’re low-T soyboys?
Definitely part of it, never met a Texan man who didn’t rage and throw a shitfit over the most minor of inconveniences.
I used to do regular driving trips to Mexico from NC and I swear to god everything was always fine in every state I crossed. People were nice, no police problems, roads well maintained, no traffic and quick city bypasses.
But when I cross into Texas suddenly everything would turn to shit. The people were shitty, the roads were shitty, the radio stations were shitty, the police were shitty, Houston was a massive cluster fuck of detours and pot holes, the heat, the smells, literally EVERYTHING was just a bit shittier there than anywhere else. It was always a blessing to get across the Rio Grande and back into a civilized country.
You drove through one big city and it sucked. LA and Chicago would have sucked to drive through as well.
New York is better now I hear since they implemented congestion pricing.
Correct me if I’m wrong, Huston is the biggest city I have ever been to.
Cities aren’t a problem if you can avoid driving into them. But Houston literally had no bypass because they were being worked on. You were detoured through a maze of city streets. So if a detour sign was missing or fallen over (and they often were) then you were lost. This was before GPS and smartphones were common.
It was like that for years.
Texas politicians are so shit they need to infect other states.
Get your shit together Texas.
As a totally non correlated observation, I feel like there are a lot more Texas plates on the road lately vs previous years. And I’m in a way-up-north state.
They won’t.
We’ll just have to do what we’ve always done and sit back and watch Texans continually punch themselves in the face because they can’t figure things out.
