Maybe we should honor the women who were real astronauts. From left to right are Shannon W. Lucid, Margaret Rhea Seddon, Kathryn D. Sullivan, Judith A. Resnik, Anna L. Fisher, and Sally K. Ride. NASA selected all six women as their first female astronaut candidates in January 1978.

Trying to distract myself, started watching To Catch a Killer on Netflix. Realized lead actress is Shaileane Woodley and all I can think of is Tig Notaro's "she leans 5'8" routine. I'll have to come back later. (this will make sense to maybe 3 people)

I swear to Christ, the biggest problem on this hellsite is the fact that so many people are convinced that they are the only competent person in the room.

To say a little more about this: Texas abortion advocates warned from jump that this bill was awful. It criminalizes private citizens and non-gov't nonprofits who fund abortion care and travel (though of course it'll also be used to go after city-level spending on repro initiatives).
