Yes, it’s f***ing perimenopause. Everything hurts and nothing works and every woman our age is experiencing it, but it’s definitely not what every woman thinks it is but here try this

…wherever we are in the world and however long we have to spend apart I’ll always be looking forward to the next time I get to see you. 

Before Me, A poem by Marci Daniels

If you’re a dude I need you to face to face and one on one talk to all the people in your lives affected by these decisions, and assure them that you are not a dude that requires a law in order to act right.

Because the thing about laws is that they’re put in place because A LOT of people won’t act right without them. And, if you are a dude who’s paired up with a person impacted by the recent overturn of Roe et al., I need for you to know that that person is looking at you and wondering “is he one of them?”
