If you have a copy of my dumb book,you know that I used to be pro-life.

Anyway, more minors had to flee Ohio to obtain abortions after they were raped. Also: women with cancer who were denied treatment because it would damage the fetus. O sweet Jesus. (Dispatch)

This at Vox is very good on Marilyn Monroe, author of her own image. I think I will not be watching the movie, Blonde , it riffs off of because CHRIST TRIGGER WARNING AIYEE!
We see Marilyn ecstatic in a threesome, and we see her writhing in agony during an abortion forced on her unwilling body, not once but twice. We see a rapid, violent closeup of her vagina being opened up by a pair of forceps. We see her sexually assaulted, beaten and tormented by her lovers. We see her miscarry. We see her covered in vaginal blood.
Thanks, Blonde , I'm good!
