pops a lactaid you sonofabitch, I’m in

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

Planned parenthood does them cheap! Source, my ex in a red state got his done at Planned parenthood

You are a warrior my friend 🧡

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

Personally I’ve had numerous cervical biopsies (as in they cut chunks out of you with the devil’s scissors) and the standard of care is no numbing agent or pain medication of any kind. The dr said to give a yell if I was going to faint bc that happens a lot. I asked why I couldn’t have something and they were like, ‘dunno. We just don’t do that’

There was a documented case of a nurse stealing pain medication and injecting women with saline to cover for it and it took years for her to be caught because no one believed the women who said they were in pain. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/22/podcasts/serial-the-retrievals-yale-fertility-clinic.html&ved=2ahUKEwi1n93Yip2FAxWONlkFHStzA7wQFnoECAUQAQ&usg=AOvVaw23_e6wsBLQ7jybQBvuJOvI

Take the plane!!

Here’s to the year of the turtle 🐢

I love this!

YES.

I’ll add it to the list! Kiddo is 4 so we’re probably just going to go to the Korean market and see what catches their interest

Damn! I was going to say something that would make you feel bad if you don’t accomplish it but the mole people situation sounds important

Fellow satanist! Or whatever we call ourselves actually 🐐

The satanic temple has. Those folks are out there doing the lord’s work, ironically

Woman of childbearing age here. Lots of my friends took another child off the table when Roe fell. Being potentially forced to die and leave your existing children orphaned is a big deterrent, turns out

I’m still seeing so much growth in new content and communities, idk if the raw number of users is the metric we even should care about. Is it the best measure of quality?

I was homeschooled. I ‘graduated’ without a valid diploma and had to get a GED. I don’t speak to my parents and my child is currently enjoying his day at public preschool. All my church friends who were raised similarly also are in similar situations. That’s about all I’ll say about it.

Won’t stop them from trying! The general assembly in NC literally outlawed taking ocean rise into account for determining insurance rates 🤣
