Once more into the breach, dear friends.

I was going to post about how my birthday and Beltane/Calan Mai were awesome, and I got a free ticket to the renaissance festival and post some cool pictures of it, but this shit has pre-empted it because we live in the darkest timeline.

The SCOTUS has apparently voted to overturn Roe vs Wade. Admittedly this is a first draft and the judges can vote differently on later drafts, but yeah.

It's being speculated that birth control and same-sex marriage are next on the chopping block:



It's unprecedented that a SCOTUS draft was leaked like this, but apparently someone felt that people needed to know, and they did everyone a service.

Not even just birth control and same-sex marriage. They're going to go after everything from interracial marriage to sodomy laws.

I have no words. I really don't. What the fuck do we do?
