Loathesome Amy, in a cult!! — ” I held onto this cartoon because I knew it would be more powerful when the Supreme Court eventually banned abortion. Ya’ see, I knew this shit was going to happen.”

I already wrote one blog today on this subject and I’ll probably write another, but I don’t feel the need to do so now. Instead, I’ll talk about the creative process.

I sketched out the idea of this last January. It was picked over for something else I really liked which I can’t remember now, even though I liked this one more. I held onto this cartoon because I knew it would be more powerful when the Supreme Court eventually banned abortion. Ya’ see, I knew this shit was going to happen.

Knowing this was going to happen doesn’t make me a great political prognosticator. Anyone with eyes and who’s been paying attention for the past five years could see this coming. Hell, you could say you saw it coming when the Supreme Court forced Florida to stop its recount in 2000 and gave the presidency to George W. Bush…

The citizens of this nation are about to lose a constitutional right.

In a leaked initial draft obtained by Politico last night, Justice Samuel Alito wrote, “We hold that Roe and Casey must be overruled.” This is a preliminary private vote that can change, but won’t. Chief Justice John Roberts, who is comfortable with extreme restrictions on a woman’s right to choose but not with banning it entirely, is voting with the minority to uphold abortion.

For Politico, Josh Gerstein and Alexander Ward write, “The draft opinion is a full-throated, unflinching repudiation of the 1973 decision which guaranteed federal constitutional protections of abortion rights and a subsequent 1992 decision – Planned Parenthood v. Casey – that largely maintained the right.”

Alito writes in the document labeled the “Opinion of the Court,” “Roe was egregiously wrong from the start. We hold that Roe and Casey must be overruled. It…

10 New Exciting Features of Twitter After It Is Bought By Elon Musk

Posted on May 8, 2022 by Dr. Rex

This is perfect … being facetious!! … “Here are 10 brand-new features of Twitter we should expect thanks to Elon Musk’s buying the company.”

List of X

This week, Twitter had accepted Elon Musk’s offer to buy the company for $44 billion, because, apparently, freedom of speech isn’t free, and the best way to preserve the public’s freedom of speech is to put it under complete control of one private individual. Here are 10 brand-new features of Twitter we should expect thanks to Elon Musk’s buying the company.

1) When you edit your Twitter profile settings and make a mistake, there will not be a Cancel button, because Elon Musk is against the “cancel culture”

2) From now on, “they’re”, “there”, “their” can officially be used interchangeably on Twitter.

3) Phones with Elon Musk’s Twitter installed will only be able to charge they’re phones at Tesla’s Supercharger stations.

4) Twitter community standards will be removed for violating Elon Musk’s standards.

5) Maximum length of tweets will now be 420 characters, in reference to Musk’s favorite pot-related number.
