thought about this because it's so frustrating when people argue that 'dying in childbirth' is a historical sort of event that doesn't happen nowadays (false) and therefore is irrelevant to the legal status of abortion, since it's not a real danger.

except it super is, and i think a lot of people haven't noticed that this argument in addition to simply being incorrect is basically the same as when people say we don't need vaccines for deadly diseases because no one gets those now anyway.

#I have a suspicion that a lot of people think aotearoa is a lot smaller than it actually is #I think there's a tendency especially for europeans and east-coast americans to think of it as 'a small island off of australia' #which like #it's small compared to australia #but most countries are small compared to australia #aotearoa has a greater area than the entire united kingdom #it also spans about 15° of latitude #which is 50% more than england #and also more than any US state except Alaska

"off of australia" is also a bit misleading; the distance looks small on a map, but that's because your brain is comparing it to the entire pacific ocean on the other side.

oh this is a hard one.

i actually think they have a lot in common, they‘re both very protective of the people they care about, they‘re fiercely loyal (to each other), they both crave so so much love, they‘re determined and strong willed, but the way they act on it all and live it all are very different.

santana‘s anger is loud and mean and destructive and brittany internalizes it and waits for the right moment to attack, i think she‘s more of an evil mastermind than santana is tbh and that‘s saying something.

i‘d say the biggest difference is that brittany is so unashamed and unapologetic and just purely herself, always. she doesn‘t care what people think and does whatever tf she wants and is proud of it. the only time we ever saw her show some insecurity was when people were calling her stupid and after santana left.

santana, however, cares SO much, even though she‘d never admit it. she‘s constantly worried about the way she‘s perceived, especially from people she cares about. she has a lot of insecurities and projects them onto other people or tries to cover it up by lashing out.

i think that‘s part of the reason why they work so well together - santana has brittany to reassure her and make her feel confident and proud. she‘s patient with her but will also call her out on her bs when it gets to a point.

brittany has santana to make her feel smart and appreciated and loved. santana will reel her back in when she loses sight of the things that matter or gets overwhelmed and stressed out.

basically, they‘re perfect??

Not to mention over populated deer destroying what little is left due to a lack of predators, 60 million non-native birds released for sport shooting every year, plus huge amounts of wildlife crime, including large numbers of birds of prey being shot/poisoned.

It has been 4 days without any support or donations !? while my grandmother urgently needs her daily medication, which costs €60 per day—€420 every week.🙏💔😭

Please don't let her reach the point where the treatment is no longer effective and her condition becomes critical.🙏
