Texas passed a law banning medical abortions after 7 weeks today, making it a felony for any providers who give them. Between that and Roe v. Wade likely being overturned in the next few months, things arenβt looking good.
Iβm terrified because itβs becoming more clear that my rights as a woman arenβt respected or valued. We had planned to move in a year when our lease is up, and are considering the Seattle area because weβre both in STEM (computer science). Now weβre looking at possibly moving that up or changing our plans.
I donβt feel safe here. I live with PTSD from being sexually assaulted causing bodily harm. I couldnβt imagine if something like that ever happened again and I ended up pregnant. I struggle with bodily autonomy as it is after that. I donβt need anyone else telling me what I can and canβt do with my uterus.
I moved to the US from Canada after that assault 3 years ago. It was for a fresh start and I met my husband. So much good has happened but now everything feels like it has gone downhill so fast and Iβm honestly so scared. I know Iβm not the only one. I definitely canβt raise my future children here. Long term we may look at moving to Canada, but thatβs not possible right now.
So yeah. What are your experiences in other states? I know I can google search it, but Iβd really like to hear some anecdotal evidence from others who understand.
I was poking around on Kenpom today when I noticed this.
LSUβs current AdjD is 82.6. The best season end AdjD in KP is currently 2019 Texas Tech - 84.1.
Under Will Wade LSU has previously finished 124th, 179th, 59th, and 136th.
Do any LSU fans have an explanation for this sudden transformation into an absolute defensive juggernaut?
Edit: Great article shared by u/ReplEH - How LSU Basketball became elite on defense
LSU just lost to 1-3 Arkansas at LSU and it was fantastic.
This is for any person out there unable to access a safe abortion- aidaccess.org is a european based non profit run by doctors, they send abortion pills on the mail all over the world for a symbolic amount.

Please share, so people who are denied access to safe abortion know there's help for them β‘
Also beware or fake clinics run by religious groups where they lie to women and spread misconceptions about abortion to trick them into keeping their fetus. They also promise them help and resources that never materialize. These people are the devil and will only care about and your fetus until you give birth, once that happens they wash their hands.
A couple of short documentaries on the subject:
Edit- If anyone has trouble accessing their website due to geographical restrictions, you can use a VPN, this one is free, safe and easy to install.
Edit 2- I meant mail the pills, not email them lol

One of my characters died, he was the main frontliner so I want to build a guardian to wade into battle and protect the squishies
I think access to abortion is a basic human right and it scares me that they might overturn it. I don't understand why Republicans are so adamant about this. Would over turning it really be that popular with the public anyway? Heck I'm not even a liberal (politically I'm like slightly right of the center ) and I am strongly pro choice.
Will the court be able to go full on with a draconian statement that all abortions for any reason are now illegal, a precedent that is extremely rare globally and should be viciously opposed? Or will they devolve this power to the states, returning to the pre-Roe standard?
In other words, how backwards will the court go?
It's nearly comical how we are so obsessed with abortion law. Let women choose for God's sake.
Anyone know?
