Hi john,
You did it – you made it through the entire decade that was 2024! We know the future feels pretty damn bleak right now, but one thing we are excited about is being in community with badass folks like you who want to make the world a better place, and collectively scorching the earth under every anti-abortion foot out there.
Take a few to read about the latest anti-abortion skulduggery, and then we’ll lace up our boots together and go get some shit done!
The New Congressional Priorities Can Suck A Dick A meme featuring Joaquin Phoenix as the Joker, with text above reading, ''WHEN WE HEAR A FEMALE LEGISLATOR IS REINTRODUCING THE 'BORN ALIVE' BILL.'' Below the image, the caption reads, ''I’m going to become the Joker.'' The meme includes a logo in the bottom right corner, marked ''Ten Years AF, 2015–2025,'' referencing Abortion Access Front.

Whadya s’pose this newly installed anti-abortion congress’s first order of business is? Lowering food costs…middle class tax cuts…? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHH fuck no! They are doing the most (useless shit) and introducing “born alive” legislation [[link removed]] to “fix” the totally made up problem of babies born alive after abortion procedures. Is this an actual issue? NO. Will it only serve to stigmatize abortion care and demonize abortion providers? YES. Is there a seat at the right hand of Satan for one Ann Wagner, a WOMAN, introducing this bill AGAIN? Affirmative. Do we hate this timeline? YOU’RE DAMN RIGHT.
A digital graphic featuring a headline from Truthout: ''Florida Doctor Fined $10K for Violating Abortion Waiting Period Law.'' The subtext reads, ''Critics argue mandatory 24-hour waiting periods are medically unnecessary and impede abortion access.'' The image displays a black judge's gavel next to a stethoscope. A logo in the bottom right corner says ''Ten Years AF, 2015–2025,'' referencing Abortion Access Front. [[link removed]] Popular Opinion: Mandatory Waiting Periods Should Be For Texting Your Ex, Not Abortion
Florida recently fined a doctor $10K for violating their 24-hour waiting period before providing an abortion [[link removed]] – unintentionally, of course, because the state couldn’t even clarify when their asinine law took effect. Despite trying to adhere to the law and, according to one judge, no evidence of patients suffering harm without having the waiting period, the clinic itself was also fined $193k…almost three times the amount recommended by the judge ! Here’s your reminder: mandatory waiting periods do not benefit abortion patients, they are solely to delay care for abortion seekers. On the other hand, when we’re thinking of hitting our ex with a ‘wyd’, we’re all for that waiting period.
We Wish This Would Ruin the Tour
Pope Francis started 2025 reaffirming his commitment to the worst takes by encouraging people to reject abortion [[link removed]] and “respect the dignity of human life from conception to natural death”. This follows previous bangers on abortion such as, “Hiring a hitman to solve a problem”, and criticizing abortion as “homicidal”. Thank goodness we don’t actually care what he thinks!
