One in every ten pregnancies in the US ends in a miscarriage, a common medical event for which there are safe and effective treatments should there be complications. But over the past two years, having a miscarriage in many states has become far more dangerous, thanks in part to the Supreme Court’s 2022 Dobbs decision overturning Roe v Wade.
Thirteen states have passed total abortion bans. Four others ban abortion after six weeks—a de facto ban. These laws have resulted in a rash of horror stories—not about the anticipated illegal backroom abortion deaths, but about ordinary women having ordinary but occasionally life-threatening pregnancy complications, while hospitals and doctors refuse to treat them for fear of being prosecuted.
Among the legion of GOP anti-abortion politicians in the US who’ve helped create this carnage, there is one you might expect to have some sympathy for the suffering of these women: Vice presidential candidate and Ohio Senator JD Vance. On the surface, the politician who denigrated Democrats as the party of “childless cat ladies” and suggested that “the whole purpose of the postmenopausal female, in theory,” was to take care of children, would not be an obvious softie for the victims of policies that have left women bleeding out in hospital restrooms. And yet, he might understand the situation better than many of his Republican colleagues.

A rattling pill bottle is called the Ohio mating call.
No it’s not lol. That joke was coined in the Knoxville produced Grammy winning Nobel peac prize deserving motion picture masterpiece, “The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia” Ohio pill bottles have a ways to go to take the crown as being the mating call of West Virginia. WV paved the way for the opiate epidemic then snorted it in the same delivery room those dirty CPS fucks came to when they STOLE MYBAYBAY FROM ME! *actual scene in the movie where minutes after squeezing out another inbred crotch fruit the woman snorts or smokes an oxy in the delivery room leading to CPS taking the baby and the mother freaking out that they stole her baby for no reason.
I put a butcher knife up to her neck and I said, “You better start cookin’ them eggs right. I’m tired of them sloppy, slimey eggs.”
NGL that shit gave me a laugh. Donno why people are so uptight.
I stole it from a documentary, but it’s not like this place is real original when it comes to comedy anyway.
