For a year I have had the honor of getting to know about a few of the 21 lives lost inside Robb Elementary & the families keeping their memories alive. For 2 moms a year of grief has looked different & yet both say the same: They can’t move forward. They want their babies home.

It doesn’t matter if they’ve been interviewed two times or 1,000,000,000 times — there is no timeline to trauma, so treat every interview as if it’s their first & prob triggering. If possible, check in a day or so after the piece is published, just to see how they’re feeling.

I love this & am also incensed that it’s revolutionary in 2021. You’re postpartum whether you had a live birth or not. You need time to heal whether your baby is alive or not. And the often traumatic experience of pregnancy and infant loss requires more, not less, paid time off.

New Zealand just approved a new measure allowing for paid leave after miscarriage. The legislation is believed to be among the first in the world, applying to couples who lose a baby at any point.

Friendly reminder: you don’t have to be a member of “the troops” to experience PTSD triggers due to fireworks. As someone w/PTSD due to years of child abuse I can tell you this fucking holiday sucks for me too You don’t have to go overseas to get PTSD. Usually the war is at home

My abortion story is in this AMICUS brief. I am proud — PROUD — to share my story w/ SCOTUS & say unequivocally that w/out my abortion & the caring, capable health care workers who provided it I would not be the mom I am today. I owe my life & my family to abortion providers.

#LouisCK 's statement: "These stories are true." Victims gain nothing from coming forward, except the hope that the cycle of abuse will end. It doesn't bring us fame. Or money. It doesn't negate what happened. Doesn't stop PTSD. Doesn't erase depression. Believe women.

. @repjimmygomez said the kids in attendance, including his son, brought joy & reprieve to House members. At one point @AOC insisted Rep Gomez “give me that baby” because he’s “the most gorgeous baby.” He said the kids also reminded Reps why they’re there.

Stop saying “heartbeat bill” without putting quotations around it or “so-called” in front of it. What’s called a “heartbeat” at 6 weeks gestation is NOT the beat of a fully-formed heart. It’s an involuntary reflux contraction of cardiac cells. There is no heart.

Remember when people were super pissed that Love Actually portrayed the president of the United States as a misogynistic sexual harasser as if our country was incapable of even theoretically voting a serial abuser into office? Oh, those were the days.

Don't say you'll move to Canada. Don't say overturning Roe v Wade is a forgone conclusion. Don't act like abortion isn't already essentially illegal for many ppl in this country. Donate to @PPact & @AbortionFunds . VOTE Call reps & demand they vote down any anti-abortion nominee.

As this week begins and the nation prepares to observe the first anniversary of the deadly Robb Elementary School shooting in Uvalde, TX, I’m thinking of the families & sweet babies I’ve grown to know and hold dear over the course of a horrendous, grief-stricken year.

ICYMI, I spoke to a TX mom who was denied maternity leave after having a stillborn baby. An anti-abortion law forced her to pay for funeral home services. It took a month for her to get her baby's ashes — before she was initially told to return to work.
