This time we’re ranting about menstrual cycles, fetal development, and comparisons to gun rights while we try to unpack Texas’ S.B. 8. I... actually don't have much to say here. Texas not only wants to outlaw abortions up to a point before many people even know they are pregnant—they want you to be paid to narc about it. Of all the weird regression happening in Texas right now, this is what I picked today because it just feels... scary and pointless. We will probably talk about this again as the situation continues to unfold; there are so many layers here and even just this one Texas law is so nuanced. 

MASSIVE trigger warnings for talk about abortions, menstruation, fetal development, guns, etc..
