Methotrexate is a drug used to treat cancer and autoimmune diseases in this case. An 8 year old was denied treatment because methotrexate may cause a miscarriage, essentially she's seen as a potential pregnant body.

hold onto your rage

Y'know all that frustration and rage you're feeling over the @GOP ripping away our rights, overturning #RoeVWade?

All that is what most of us queers have faced our entire lives. We're facing it again right now.

DON'T let it rule you, but DO hold onto it. You're gonna need it.

If there's such a thing as righteous rage, this is it. Some days, it will be the only thing that keeps you going.

(Ask POC around you about it. That's not my tale to tell - you don't get much whiter than Finnish, I mean, you do, but you gotta work at it - but it's real.)

I've dealt with these evangelical fundamentalist @GOP fucks for decades, and the first thing you've got to understand: there is no good faith from them, but it is demanded you demonstrate your own. And stick to it.

They'll demand "polite discourse and debate" even as they accuse you and yours of raping children to reproduce since "homosexuals can't reproduce on their own" - and proclaim you the villain if you even raise your voice about their blood libel.

There is no trick too dirty, and the only measure of truth is whether it serves the cause. They systematically lie, they systematically cheat, and they won't just bring a gun to a knife fight, they'll bring a gun to a debate, fire it, and then lie about that too.

Literally NOTHING the evangelical/fundamentalist @GOP say is in good faith. It's whatever noise fills the moment. If it's true, it's a coincidence, and if a lie had suited the moment better, they'd've lied.

I'm not saying this to be mean, I'm saying it because it's true.

And here's the kicker:

They enjoy this shit.

It's fun for them.

Because they enjoy power most of all, and the impunity to hurt others feels oh so very very good.

That's why you need this rage, why you need to keep it, not punish or scold yourself, not try to get over it, because that shit will not work.

What they want is their dominance, and your compliance and suffering. What they'll do to get it is anything.

Look, rage isn't good for you, I'm not pretending it is. I'm just saying that sometimes it's what you need, because righteous rage...

Rage is real good at helping you get through the hell they genuinely desire to rain down upon all of us.

Rage is motivating as fuck.

And I'd like to say there are a lot of better ways to get that motivation, because there are. But given what the queer community have gone through at the hands of the @GOP fundamentalist evangelical religious cult for my entire life, and how little cishets have cared...

...I can't say that I think these 'better angels' of motivation are enough. They've been AWOL far too long.

So there are times to be angry.

There are times in fact to be enraged.

We are in those times.

Keep your fury. You're gonna need it.

"Studies show that women who drink caffeinated beverages have a harder time getting pregnant and a higher risk of miscarriage."

Me: *Opens 24oz Monster can* That's a damn shame.

Overturning Roe v. Wade  poses a threat to the health and safety of LGBTQ young people. Here are a few reasons why reproductive healthcare rights matter to LGBTQ young people: 

🏥 Overturning Roe v. Wade allows states to further regulate essential health care and the already limited number of LGBTQ-competent providers across the country, posing a threat to the health and safety of LGBTQ young people.

🏳️‍🌈 In undermining the right to privacy, this Supreme Court decision could also jeopardize the rights afforded to LGBTQ people in the Obergefell and Lawrence decision — the freedom to marry who you love.

💔 Trevor Project polling found that nearly 70% of LGBTQ young people say efforts to restrict access to abortion often gave them stress or anxiety. 

We won’t stop fighting to establish equality for LGBTQ people, and our counselors are here 24/7 to support young LGBTQ people across the country who may be feeling a wide range of emotions — including anger, grief, and fear — in response to this decision.

On Friday, Mr. Biden urged people, particularly women, to vote in November, saying the "fastest way" to restore Roe begins at the ballot box. 

"We need two additional pro-choice senators and a pro-choice House to codify Roe as federal law," the president said. Your vote can make that a reality."
