So, two things...
1) Yay! Finally! (I have been meaning to be this person, but 2022-23 is when I finally got right with this bucket-list item.)
2) Is there a #CoSoNauts team for such donations? I'm on the Grateful Dead team now, but there's a CoSo-celebrating option I'm down.

"It wasn’t until later that day that the Texas Supreme Court finally ruled that, essentially, Cox’s abortion couldn’t be medically necessary, in part because her doctor had gone to court to confirm that it was medically necessary."
Say WHAT?!?
No words. Entirely wrecked and ugly-crying over here. Please do read it anyway.
