Lemme give you some hopium from the trenches in NC. Source: I am the elected chair of my precinct in a purple NC county. We are seeing volunteers signing up and turning out on the ground in numbers not seen since 2008. My precinct was not organized for the past few years. In 2022 there was 6% voter outreach. As of today, we've achieved 83% and our county chair sent a shout out yesterday to say a lot of others are keeping pace. Tricia Cotham's little maneuver really pissed a lot of folks off. Not to mention Mark Robinson is a lunatic. If you want to get connected to write postcards or knock doors, hmu!

My 5yo has discovered minecraft. Do I want to listen to 12 straight minutes of wolf variants? No I do not. But I listen politely because he's sharing something that's important to him and that bond is precious to me. Vance is shit and my heart hurts for this little who's learning that's how people who love you talk to you

Big facts. My friend is an ob/gyn. We're in NC, on paper we don't have a total ban but in practice it amounts to one. He's currently commuting to VA to work because he doesn't want to get sued, prosecuted, or watch patients almost die before he can treat them. shakes head

The fact that you call them 'females' might suggest they wouldn't discuss it around you. I can assure you the women in my circles are worried sick

If he brings his gun in the bathroom does he ever sanitize it? 🤔

I did try, they were like 'we don't have anything here' and then it was down to 'soo do you want to keep this appointment or try again next month?' And I had a sitter with the kid and had taken off work so I sucked it up. Like they always expect you to. The next time I went so far as to talk to another Dr in the practice but I kept being told over and over it wasn't done and isn't necessary. Definitely check out the podcast 'the retrievals' to learn more about how women's pain is treated in ob/gyn

Done on my domestic machine. Getting a lot better at binding, still not quite straight but really proud

 

My kiddo and I are having a fruit and vegetable challenge. Each month we'll seek out a fruit or vegetable we've never tried and taste it. My BFF is trying to walk all the greenways in our county (that is county not country, low stakes! Attainabl!). How about you?

I'm a web developer who has done contracting in the world of gov.. This took a long time even for them. Glad it's there now though?

This one took a minute! I ended up using 9 different colors of thread and free-handed the stars on my domestic machine. Very happy with it
