That sucks about the house issues. So stressful! Take care and we'll be waiting when you resume your pod.

Having grown up in the Evangelical church, many of these crisis pregnancy centers are run or staffed by people who do not know anything about healthcare. They know the talking points and repeat them. I'm for reasonable abortion laws, but I'm not a fan of abortion. But there is soooo much misinformation out there about abortion in the right wing community. Pro tip: abortion was not an issue on the right until their fight against desegregation in the South ultimately failed. They needed a new point to rally around and abortion became the Right's cause celebre - a respectable issue, unlike opposing desegregation. It's been nothing more than a political tool on the right. Women be damned.
