More insanity that is 21st Century American Life…

[Texas resident Lauren] Miller […] testified Wednesday before a U.S. Senate panel about the struggles she faced after learning in 2022 one of the twins’ brains wasn’t developing correctly and was about half fluid.

The fear was complicated by Texas’ strict restrictions on abortion, which forced Miller to seek out treatment options without her doctors’ assistance.

Miller testified that, thankfully, she had a longtime friend she could trust who was an OB-GYN [in Colorado], who understood the landscape of abortion laws and knew doctors who could help address her diagnosis.

Miller said the best option for her and her family was to have a single fetal reduction, but that was technically an abortion and she couldn’t get it in Texas. […] “We didn’t tell anybody what had happened,” Miller said Wednesday. “We didn’t tell anybody what we had done because we were so scared.”

Between bump stocks, mass shootings and anti-choice proponents, the American Right apparently prefers abortions after birth. Some of our State Representatives think Mrs Miller’s plight is wrong as “God doesn’t make mistakes.”


A lot of people don’t realize what’s really going on. They view life as a bunch of unconnected incidents and things. They don’t realize that there’s this, like, lattice of coincidence that lays on top of everything.

    If God doesn’t make mistakes then gay and trans people should be an issue for them and please fucking explain all the fucked up birth defects that happen.

      If God doesn’t make mistakes, those people better never go to a doctor or even wear glasses. God clearly wanted them to be sick or have poor vision.

      They shouldn’t even take Tylenol.

      They aren’t mistakes in their eyes. God is just cruel. Gay people and trans folk and people suffering from birth defects are just supposed to have worse lives.
