So, can we make it a rule that you can't claim to be "pro-life" if you're against gun control? Like surely not wanting people to be shot is about the bare minimum to count as pro-life

Okay, as someone who likes etymology, but who also sometimes gets confused by idioms, I'm loving this thread😄

If you're struggling right now, this is a great place I've found for when I'm sad. They have multiple 24/7 streams of rescue kittens As I tweet this, the kittens on this stream are playing, and it's so adorable 😀 #WorldMentalHealthDay youtube.com/watch?v=pkCgB1JM…
