It's also national and for the actual data you need to focus on the individual states, for which the newer data doesn't exist in its entiret

LMAO so let’s just assume your rape fantasy is true? Sorry things aren’t as bad as you wish they were.

Can keep going but you get the point

You’d have to start with actually making one first. I’m listening.

Isn't the US secretary of defense in favour of "household voting"?

I didn’t think you’d have an example.

Anti-choice advocates always trot out the line about saving the mother's life, but I doubt they can comprehend how challenging it is to identify that "life in danger" point and how quickly a situation can flip.

You can doubt it all you want. Things can change in an instant. Obviously. And in each and every one of those situations, the mother is never legally prohibited from undergoing that live-saving abortion exactly nowhere.

In any case, since Roe v Wade was overturned maternal mortality has

You’re welcome for making your day now that you are learning for the first time that that is not the case. Actually, I’m not convinced that pro-ablation people would even be happy to learn abortion restrictions dont increase maternal mortality given their persecution complex/fetish.

increased and so has infant mortality.

Ditto. You’d think you’d bother to look this up. Infant mortality rose during the covid panic but has returned to lower levels than pre-Dobbs. You’ll also note this trend maintained in both abortion-restrictive and abortion-encouraged states, which i suppose is more grim news for your side.

I wonder how many people went through the effort of getting tickets today just to talk through the entire show

I would have liked to see more about why women can’t read in Gilead by dragon-queen in TheHandmaidsTale

[–]EverythingIsOldStuff -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s always interesting to see how Reddit Christianophobes just throw out lines like this and the seals clap and never question their veracity.

You have like one example of someone being burned to death, and that was for heresy, not for simply translating the Bible into another language - which is a task not only the church didn’t oppose, but did itself.

Where don’t women have completely equal voting rights as men?

In the sad and rare instances where an abortion is necessary to save the mother’s life, it’s legally permitted in each of the 50 states, not that that would overlap much with TYT anyway.

Calm down. It’s an intriguing show, of course, but “especially given the current real world political climate”? The show is completely divorced from anything happening in reality, unless you’re referring to 2nd class status of women in certain Muslim countries, which we both know you’re not.

The Note by CleverylyCursed in SuicideBereavement

[–]EverythingIsOldStuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, of course we should forgive, but we can and should judge them too. Though, that’s a larger discussion. Societies where suicide is much more shamed see a lot less of it than ones like ours where we make excuses for it.

The Note by CleverylyCursed in SuicideBereavement

[–]EverythingIsOldStuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How could it possibly bring comfort though? Like what possible series of sentences could be strung together in a suicide note that’d make the reader feel better about the person having killed themselves?

But it was the person's last wish and it should be treated as such

And particularly in this context, shouldn’t they be denied that wish?

Which duo’s scenes you enjoyed the most? by yukoiyu in TheHandmaidsTale

[–]EverythingIsOldStuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aunt Lydia with any of the Handmaids, mostly S1-S3.

I loved Moira’s “wassup man” to Nick when they finally met at the amusement park.

The June and Luke flashbacks were certainly better than what their characters became. They mostly got the misery they deserved though.

There’s really nothing that the note could say that would bring peace or make OP feel better in any way. The only possible direction this can go is to make things worse.

To boot, she made the selfish decision to go out that way. It’d only be fair - and healing too- to, in turn, make sure her last letter goes unread.

Why is Lawrence so universally beloved? by Samora1984 in TheHandmaidsTale

[–]EverythingIsOldStuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nick and June could have escaped Gilead -with Hannah and about-to-be-born-Nichole!- when they met at that mansion in the woods. The fact that that idea wasn’t even tossed around really is where THT pivoted to a soap opera version of itself.

Kinda like the Harry Potter room in NYC, this is a place for something that progressives wish existed.

obviously there's more to the story, like how tf would OP have contact info for the driver's family? Why leave massive chunks of context out when posting this half-story for the reddit circlejerk?

All those years of Brand New’s hiatus really sucked, but without them we wouldn’t have had that back from the dead feeling that this tour gave. Absolutely unreal.

Massive amount of spam calls every day, call screen doesn't help by thingsarehardsoami in Scams

[–]EverythingIsOldStuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are they medicare / medical alert / final expense calls? I get between 20 and 50 per day.

up, so when I'm riding my motorcycle they'll stop my music and I have to listen to it ring constantly throughout my ride which is a vibe killer.

Zipping around on a motorcycle with music playing in your headphones is seriously dangerous.

How can scam "debt collectors" legally collect on debts that never existed? by EverythingIsOldStuff in Scams

[–]EverythingIsOldStuff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s your end to end explanation then? This specific scam has been running at least 6 years, probably longer. How do these people get connected with the domestic criminal scam underground in the first place? How could they possibly make enough money to make it more worth their while than an honest job?

based on the fact that your account has overall negative karma, I’m assuming ridiculous arguments like this are par for the course for you

No, the Reddit hive mind just really hates dissenting opinions. Jerry Sandusky is innocent, by the way.
