I have revised this thread which I originally posted on that other app on 5/3/22. It has a little more information and has been updated in light of our current political outlook. Please share and be safe.
Advice from a Retail Rx Tech (Thread):

There are many options for contraceptive care. Below is an infographic that briefly goes over what's available but this thread is meant to focus on emergency contraception options.

You could have just said, “I haven’t spoken to an actual Palestinian. I know nothing and I’m just being an asshole.” to save us all some time.

Many people are, unfortunately.
I thought so 🥴 I usually say it jokingly tho even if I’m not using it in this context, is… someone using it as a defense of behavior?? 😭
I swore that “I’m just a girl” meant “Fuck, doesn’t the patriarchy state that I shouldn’t be doing this?” And is used as a tongue in cheek way

Why is this white woman soaking her crawfish in MAGNESIUM CITRATE to get the poop out of them, but then added unwashed potatoes and mushrooms to the boil right after🤢

Slight….
You mean to tell me that black pink girl (Lisa) wore Rosa Parks ON HER PANTIES

The slight disrespect I feel is… uneasy

Telling me to be afraid of Transwomen cause they “could actually be men hiding in the bathroom to assault women” makes me scared of men, not Transwomen. Cause, they’re not men. Y’all just literally acknowledging that the problem is men. Leave Transwomen alone. They’re women.

My favorite scene
THAT. MUSICAL SEQUENCE.

It goes without saying that one of the best, and I mean BEST, parts of Sinners is the musical sequence that takes place during the midpoint of the film.

Threading the Black American musical tradition and experience through TIME and SPACE was sick.

Ryan is a sick man!

So I can’t make demands of or complaints about politicians because that’s reductive? Is this grade school recess?

Because the people supposedly on my side are fighting me at every turn.

I want systemic change, they don’t. If they represent me I want them to represent my views. My views are attacked by leadership of the party on my side constantly. Why do they do that? Why shouldn’t they try to represent people

Decades now. It has failed. It is long past time for the Democratic Party to change course. That is what we are trying to do.

The status quo has failed. We need people to understand this and join us to push for change. The Democratic Party is resisting that change.

Where we disagree is on what democratic politicians are, what they do and why.

That is worth talking about. We need to come together and change the Democratic Party or the republicans will continue to thrive. But we can’t beat the republicans following the path those in power have laid out for

Hard agree. Coalition building happens in the 🇺🇸 BEFORE the election.

A coalition is first and foremost collaborative not transactional.

To be in the coalition you have to say what YOU bring to the group —not hold the group hostage to what you want.
Progressives do not understand representational politics, or how to build coalitions. The more I observe progressives, the more I realize some of you confuse populism with progressivism. The two most high profile Progressives are two of the least productive legislators.

And you wonder why people reject Progressivism. AOC's voting record in relation to Progressive Bills is spotty at best, and Bernie Sanders' voting record is shitty. You could overlook their voting records if they passed Bills that support progressive causes but they don't pass Bills.

This is also why I hate the labels of leftist or liberal being associated with people or ideals that are human and human rights first. Those are not debatable subjects. Don’t call me liberal or a leftist because I’m anti genocide and that’s a hard line for me. Why tf isn’t it for you?
It's weird that defund the police or abolish ICE are considered radical slogans unfit for discourse, but we are supposed to treat dismantling the judiciary and arresting a judge for obeying the law, or kidnapping and exiling people without due process, like a rational perspective worth debating.
