I love how many new voices get a shot on @cbbworld.bsky.social , but there’s something reeeeeally special about four master improvisers with history and a lot of love, throwing fast balls at each other for an hour and a half.

They're going to keep pushing this narrative that only conservatives have children, and it's very important that we keep saying "what the fuck are you talking about"

Audre Lorde, in a 1989 commencement address, said, "Remember this, despair is a tool of your enemies. That rumor, 'You can’t fight City Hall,' is circulated by City Hall. Facing the realities of our lives gives us the motivation for action, it gives us the power to change. You are not powerless."

I reviewed this book and recommend it for anyone interested in how our U.S. legal framework (including laws, executive orders, court decisions, programs) shapes and is shaped by gender and class. Of course #abortionpolicy is in there, but other issues, too!
