Hey, PSA:
/You don't have to be anthro!/
Being non-anthro is okay!
You do /not/, under any circumstances, have to adulterate your form with a human body plan if a nonhuman one fits you better.

“they think they're an animal” tastes the same as if you described me with “thinks [wrong pronoun]'s a girl” and I won't fucking stand for it.
If anyone happens to have a lead for remote work, I'd deeply appreciate it! Money is really rough at the moment, and I've really hit a wall.

uspol Roe v Wade
Explained in brief: the legal reasoning for overturning Roe v. Wade (US Supreme Court decision asserting a right to abortion) attacks the legal doctrine of the "right to privacy," which is not explicitly mentioned in the Constitution but for decades has been inferred from its text. The right to privacy is also implicated in decisions establishing other civil rights, such as Obergefell v. Hodges (made same-sex marriages legal across all states), Lawrence v. Texas (ended enforcement of anti-gay "sodomy" laws in various states), and Griswold v. Connecticut (asserted that married couples have a right to access contraception without legal restrictions). Of these, Obergefell looks especially vulnerable because it was relatively recent. We could see same-sex marriage go back to being legal in some states and unrecognized in others in a few years
People in #Asheville organized an autonomous event centering mutual aid and grassroots abortion groups - and also made this amazing flyer critiquing the PSL, Stalinism + beyond. https://itsgoingdown.org/why-fascists-authoritarians-and-theocrats-are-the-enemies-of-reproductive-freedom/
