DO NOT USE PERIOD TRACKING APPS. NONE OF THEM. 23 states have formed a coalition (led by Texas) and are working on legislation to sue for women’s health records and data in order to arrest and incarcerate them and their providers for abortion

Everything is awful, so please enjoy this stunning photo I took in Nanaimo. I am not a photographer and I was a passenger in a car and took the photo through the window, so it just shows how fucking beautiful it is

Unsurprising targets but this will worsen inequities and cause profound harm to health.
