Ken Paxton is a massive piece of shit who worked with anti-abortion activists to find abusive men willing to sue over their ex’s abortions. I guess that’s my way of saying: if Ken Paxton got you pregnant, hit me up at tips@abortioneveryday.com

The Atlantic should be ashamed of publishing this nightmare piece from Liz Bruenig, whose callous dismissal of Adriana Smith's dignity is one of the most shocking things I've ever read.

I know everyone is consumed with other news, but this is a big fucking deal: The Trump administration says that IUDs and the Pill are actually abortions. Here's what USAID told the NYT about the $10m in birth control they plan to destroy. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/11/h...

Ok I need help from people who know LAX: is there a quick way to go between terminals 2 and 7 without having to go through security again? I have a connecting flight this afternoon and just under an hour to make it 🫠

This isn't my newsletter's usual beat, but I had to write something jessica.substack.com/p/mens-hocke...

Can someone send this to the hockey assholes

I don't follow figure skating, so I couldn't figure out why I started sobbing while watching Alysa Liu's gold medal-winning performance. Then it dawned on me: I was watching a young woman be free.

Justice for Adriana

Meet Rep. Monty Fritts— a Tennessee lawmaker running for governor. If you’re one of the millions of American women who’s had an abortion, he thinks that you should be given the death penalty
