omg it's truly frightening how many people seem to think the tracking app is going to notify them if someone with the rona is nearby
Not kidding, I've heard this several times today, people who genuinely think life is about to go back to normal and we will be 'safe' because the app will help us avoid anyone who has the virus

I've been staring at this open comment box for like ten minutes, but I'm so angry that I can't find the words to say how angry I am
You know what, I've been flicking through Twitter for about an hour now. The things that have appeared in my TL so far include:
- our govt refusing to adequately support women escaping violence,
- US attempts to criminalise women who have *miscarriages* under abortion laws

Today's random angry outburst brought to you by comments I read in an anti-abortion thread, from men suggesting that women use abortion as a backup plan because they're "too lazy to pop a [birth control] pill".
I'm gonna skip straight past the basic stupidity of thinking an expensive and difficult to access medical procedure would be preferable to taking a tablet once a day, even to the 'laziest' of women (wtf?), and focus on the "just popping a pill" bit.
