‘Very traumatic,’: Texas women denied treatment for miscarriage under state abortion ban

>Texas resident Lynn Callaway filed a federal complaint against two Texas area hospitals that denied her treatment while she was having a miscarriage. “It has been a whirlwind, very traumatic,” Callaway said. In order to treat her miscarriage, she needed to receive the same procedure used in abortions. “I was someone who also did not realize that the abortion ban, particularly how it bans the pill, as well as the D&C, could also impact miscarriage care. That just never came to my mind, and that's why it's very important to understand these laws and understand how they impact everyone.”

Fuck yes

An Australian's reply to Trump's rant about "NATO not being there for America" is perfect.

Posted on Facebook -

"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth."

Not all Over 55 are Maga

I am a non-partisan voter.
I am over 55, and Trump fucked me over the first time and now.
If you are not aware, once over 55 you try and hope all you worked for
you maybe can survive later into life.

Trump said he would help seniors. I pay more for food, health insurance and gas then I ever have.
I have employee paid insurance, and still get raped just getting a yearly and blood work.
I worked hard all my life and now I can not even afford to live.

Trump was a POS long before politics, scamming bank loans that would have placed all of us in jail.
Lying about signed contracts, keeping black out of housing.
How would ppl think as POTUS he would be different.

I tried to tell ppl my age group he was a pompous, loud mouth criminal, before his first election
no one listened.
I am fucked if I live to be 85+, and if you are under 55 you wont have enough money or food to
even live on if you are 60 in 20 years.
We are at a turning point here. Elon should wake you up. This is the world we are creating.
Seniors living and dying in poverty, youth that will have nothing when they retire will be less then just poor. I am ashamed at my Generation of greedy little fuckers who just raped the working class so bad there is no easy fix.

I do know many of us in my age group, but too many white, old conservatives that want Elons.
I know allot of white folks that are also older and hate Trump, because he done nothing but divide and teach hate and control.

So just wanted to say, not everyone over 55 is MAGA, if this is making American Great Again?
This will be the biggest con ever.
And all these Magas never questioned, Elon task force in 2025. And never questions where
the fuck all that money go they found. This year is a new Budget. There should be a massive
recovery of funds. Where is it?

Sad, Sad days for all of us. Fuck Trump

🇺🇳 UN inquiry accuses Israel of targeting children Report links actions to genocide findings 👇

A United Nations inquiry has concluded that Israeli actions affecting children in Gaza contributed to what investigators described as evidence supporting findings of genocide. The report, released by the UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory and Israel, represents one of the strongest assessments issued by a UN body since the conflict began and is expected to intensify international debate over accountability, civilian protection, and the conduct of military operations in the territory.

According to the commission, at least 20,179 children were killed and 44,143 children were injured during the period examined by investigators. The report found that children accounted for roughly 30% of all recorded deaths associated with the conflict. Investigators reviewed casualty data, military operations, displacement patterns, attacks on civilian infrastructure, access to medical care, and humanitarian conditions throughout Gaza before reaching their conclusions.

The commission argued that children have suffered disproportionately from military operations, forced displacement, shortages of food and medicine, and the destruction of schools, hospitals, and essential services. Investigators stated that the cumulative impact of these conditions has produced severe long-term consequences for an entire generation of Palestinian children.

Israeli officials rejected the findings and disputed the commission's conclusions. Israel has consistently maintained that its military operations target armed groups and that civilian casualties are an unintended consequence of fighting in densely populated urban areas. Officials have also criticized previous UN investigations, arguing they fail to adequately account for security threats and the actions of militant organizations operating in Gaza.

While the inquiry itself carries no enforcement authority, its findings are expected to influence future diplomatic efforts, legal proceedings, sanctions discussions, and international policy debates. The report arrives amid continuing humanitarian concerns, ceasefire negotiations, and broader discussions regarding the future governance and reconstruction of Gaza.

What role should international investigations play when governments and international organizations disagree over the interpretation of wartime actions?

🧩 Self - Sustaining Saturday: Claiming Your Inner - Peace 🧩

🧩Happy Saturday to every Beautiful Ray of Sunshine ☀️ reading this post. It’s been a crazy day and I’m late posting today’s challenge, but I’m here and grateful I can share another day - another chance to sprinkle kindness on everything and everyone I touch, and to prove to others I can be kind while maintaining healthy boundaries.

🧩 Before we continue with the challenge I want to say that choosing to be kind does not mean we can’t say no. Everyone should have and maintain healthy boundaries that you should never compromise for anyone. Being kind is not the same as being weak. Some of the strongest people in history were also very meek and kind, and they made the world a better place because of their deeds of kindness and dedication.

🧩 Anyway, we have spent the entire week reviving the beautiful, simple habits of human kindness. We have proven that being the change is uncomplicated, free, and incredibly powerful.

🧩 But to keep these actions moving as second nature, we have to protect our own well-being. Today, you are passing the piece of kindness entirely inward to your future self.

🧩 Saying "no" to an overwhelming task, taking a long nap, or resting your mind isn't selfish. It is the exact biological maintenance your brain and body require to stay strong, warm, and bright for the world next week.

🧩 Sustaining Saturday

🧩 The power to sustain your light is within you. Remember to remain in the moment so you will recognize:
🧩 Do Something…
🧩 Take Action…
🧩 Make A Difference…
🧩 Be The Change!
🧩 Change the World!

🧩 Because it all adds up… and that is where one contagious smile can be ground zero for the smile pandemic that literally changes the world.

🧩 Today's Challenge: Give yourself permission to completely unplug and rest today. Cancel a non-essential chore, step away from screens, and dedicate time to a peaceful activity that completely recharges your soul.

🧩 How are you practicing self-care today to ensure you are ready to be the change next week? Let us know below!

Prairieland Antifascist Sentencings begin tomorrow.

Everything you think you know about what went down at Prairieland is likely wrong. These courageous people WENT TO TRIAL. And the defense put on NO CASE. They rested after the U.S. pushed out its propaganda. TEXAS. This is the infamous "antifa cell" case. There's a serious of videos examining what really happened down there. I can't take credit for them, but please watch, if you can.These are our comrades, facing 20 years to life. I've been doing prison support, as a pro bono lawyer, for anarchist and antifascist prisoners of conscience for 20 fucking years. This is the most dangerous precedent we have faced in decades, bolstered by another extremely dangerous precedent, Holder v. Humanitarian Law, the "terrorist" material support case. There is a lot of silence, and capitulation around this case. Listen to me, please. Texas is so fucked, that I'm actually worried about them fucking with my 30 year FL bar license just for offering jail support, which is DESPERATELY needed. They are BOP prisoners, but being held in County. But what I'm worried about is NOTHING compared to what they face. Sentencings begin tomorrow. With love and rage, N. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DX5DDYYOTTd/?igsh=MXZpaHBvbWJ1eTR6ZA==

If you have a moment…

I once read a quote that said something along the lines of:

“If you are ever in a position to help someone, help them. God may be answering someone’s prayer through you.”

I’ve always loved that thought.

Sometimes helping isn’t grand or life-changing. Sometimes it’s taking two minutes to listen. To answer a message. To read someone’s words. To offer a smile, a kind comment, or a little encouragement.

The smallest acts often feel insignificant to the person giving them, but they can mean the world to the person receiving them.

I was reminded of that today.

Somewhere in the vastness of the internet, my words reached a stranger I was never supposed to meet. A kind soul carrying burdens I knew nothing about simply needed someone to listen, and for a brief moment, they felt seen.

Reading their response brought tears to my eyes.
Not because I did anything extraordinary, but because it reminded me how connected we all are. How a few minutes of kindness can travel farther than we ever realize.

So if you have a moment today, give it.

You never know whose prayer might be answered through your compassion 💕
