I feel terrible for everyday folks in Alabama today. (Just caught up on news out of the state, re: embryos now being "minor children" for lawsuit purposes.)

It's so easy to say "Alabama is a backwater, a lost cause", but most people there are just trying to get by, and there's so little hope right now of them being able to defend against the awful few striving to make the lives of women, families, and queer people even harder.

We could have built *such* a kinder world.
