I said to my wife "Do you think anyone will commit suicide because they could not get an abortion?"
She instantly replied "yes."
Then she added "there will be all those boyfriends and husbands that murder them because they couldn't get one too" and that shook my fucking world.

In the 20th century, New Zealand embarked on a series of transformational hydro projects that would remake the country.
Not everyone appreciated the foresight of these projects at the time, and their history is still bitterly contested.

This is Riley. He fell asleep on some chalk and woke up an LGBTQ+ icon. Not washing it off all month. 14/10
ALT a light brown dog with black markings stands in a street on a leash near a set of human feet. on the ground beside him, there’s a chalk drawing of a rainbow. on his fur, some of that chalk has rubbed off onto his torso, so he now has a rainbow on his right side as well

Vogels is barely edible bread that makes delicious toast and that is how they should market it.

This is heartbreaking. And it’s damning for the royal family. It has to be.
