Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

What's wrong with that?
Which is exactly why there's nothing wrong with women lying about being raped. You shouldn't have to have been raped to get an abortion in the first place and I'd be lying my ass off about it if I needed an abortion.
"Yes officer I didn't see any defining features he wore a mask and didn't speak he also put a bag over my head and put a blindfold on me"
Sadly that just won't fly. It sucks, but you're being delusional if you think a state with an abortion ban would accept such a glaring loophole in their laws.
Edit: 100% unrelated but I seem to be getting delayed notifications that I even have a reply to a message? Am I the only one experiencing that?
Oh I know it won't I'm just saying that's exactly what I would say before nopeing the fuck outta state permanently.
As for the notification thing idk what app your using but it's normal on jerboa. You can just check your notifications manually and it'll be there before the actual notification
I like to think I would have noped out of the state permanently well before I got pregnant.
I'm using sync, the inbox will show no new messages even when I refresh it, and then 5 min later show one that's 20 minutes old. I haven't dug into it further though like comparing to the web.
