Hey, y'all. Well, here it is. My first DK4 diary. Does this layout make my butt look big?
Here's what I got in my fortune cookie yesterday:
WYFP is our community's Saturday evening gathering to talk about our problems, empathize with one another, and share advice, pootie pictures, favorite adult beverages, and anything else that we think might help. Everyone and all sorts of troubles are welcome. May we find peace and healing here. Won't you please share the joy of WYFP by recommending?
More...
So. Here we are. I find it fascinating that it actually "feels" like we're somewhere new. I mean, it sorta physically feels that way. It's going to take a while. I sort of get the "groups" thing. I'll probably be fairly anonymous around here 'cept for WYFP. I've never been much of a "groupie" or "follower."
It feels like being outside, looking in the window right now. Not sure that'll change. Or that I really care.
Anyhoo...
This'll be a short one. My FP this week is the vote to defund Planned Parenthood. I wish I could understand the reasoning that allows people to think that restricting access to education and affordable reproductive healthcare services will somehow cause unwanted pregnancy and abortions to decline. Seriously. How does one make that a reality in their head?
Yet another assault against the lower income earners of our country. The wealthy will always have access to reproductive choice. Whether or not abortion remains legal where they are, and no matter their lip service regarding "life," many anti-choice conservatives have taken, and will continue to take full advantage of their financially-enhanced ability to decide what is best for their families' futures. How many who voted for this bill would terminate an unintended and unwanted pregnancy if it were their daughter or their mistress? Or even themself or their wife?
Sorry, this is a bit disjointed. I'm all over the place today trying to get stuff done. Thanks for shaking your heads in frustration with me for these few moments.
If you're so inclined, click on over here and give PP some help. Remember that donations to Planned Parenthood Federation of America are tax deductable, while donations to the Planned Parenthood Action Fund are not. (This is according to my research. If anyone has further clarification, I'll be happy to amend and update.)
And please do tell us, what is your f*^$!n" problem?
