Do also consider this: a lot of women who may want an abortion are *already* restricted from traveling because they're on probation. This is especially huge in Georgia, which has the record probation rate: boltsmag.org/georgia-abor...

Doyle brings up the 53% of white women who voted for Trump in 2016. "It is beyond time for us to stop freeloading on [Black women's] labor and democracy and start carrying our weight."

Doyle: "We could not just post 'trust Black women,' we could actually start doing it." Notes that Black women have rallied behind candidates that were "far from perfect."

I should be doing laundry right now, but I am tired. I understand exercise gives you energy-and it has many times before-but I forget that when you’re starting out, it leaves me so very tired. The idea of gathering clothes and carrying it downstairs, then back up in a couple of hours is tiring lol.

Cloudy days are so weird. It’s like, should I still go out to the farmers market and run those errands (I don’t drive), or should I just stay home and read? Gonna sup this smoothie, rehydrate, and think about it.
