The justices will consider whether to revive a bid by First Choice Women's Resource Centers to block a records request made by Democratic #NJAG Matthew Platkin as part of a probe into whether it unlawfully deceived [ #fraud] #donors & potential #clients into believing the facilities offered #abortions & other #reproductive #healthcare services.

…[so-called] Crisis pregnancy centers provide “services” to #pregnant #women with the goal of dissuading them from having an #abortion. Such centers often do not clearly advertise their anti-abortion stance, & #AbortionRights advocates have called them deceptive.
First Choice is represented by the Alliance Defending Freedom [ #ADF], a #conservative legal group that has brought other cases on behalf of anti-abortion plaintiffs. #Trump's admin is backing First Choice in the case.

"When a reporter asked 'What part of your body was the MRI looking at?' Trump answered: 'I have no idea. It was just an MRI. What part of the body? It wasn’t the brain because I took a cognitive test and I aced it. I got a perfect mark, which you would be incapable of doing,' he said, pointing at the female reporter. He then pointed at another female reporter and said: 'You, too.'”

"Then they mapped areas where Trump made a strong showing in 2016 against Hillary Clinton.
You guessed it: There was a strong correlation. ...
How insecure can one man get? Enough to help bring down a nation."

Something extraordinary is happening in #Iran:
#Women are really really not giving a fuck anymore
What started as protests over the murder of #MahsaAmini by religious morality #police in 2022 for not wearing her headscarf simmered and now is snowballing. Women and girls are not wearing the mandatory #hijab at ever increasing rates

You know, I was once the kkind of man who thought that cuddling with teddy bears or having stuffed animals in my bed was seen as a sign of weakness, and now that I do have a couple if them, I wonder why I thought this. I honestly kinda feel like at the time, I was too insecure with myself in trying to look strong when all I really needed to be is myself, and believe it or not, cuddling animals or whatever at night helps me sleep better. So , if that's the case, why is it seen as bad to talk about it on social media? There are particular #Men in my life, some of them online #friends, who attempt to dog me or discourage me from owning or talking about the #stuffed #animals on social media, because in there eyes, " #Women want men, not other women in relationships", but wouldn't it be stronger to admit that I like stuffed animals and #cuddles as a man than to hide behind the strong persona and fake like I don't, because I am afraid of the backlash that comes as a result? I feel like these particular men in my life are actually weaker for perhaps supressing that love for cuddles and cuteness, simply because they fear their images suffering as a result, and that is why they want me not to talk about it on social media or even own these stuffed animals, even though it makes me happy to do so. All I will say is, I am happy with it, so why as a #man should I hide my happiness? Just my 2 cents on what my thoughts are on all of this, and I will most definitely accept more cuddly creatures as gifts in the future timeline.
