this was an interesting line of thought yesterday its strictly true but also not in a broader sense ie i dont see any positive discussion of family outside of trad discourse very easy for left or center to present an alternative vision in theory no? https://twitter.com/default_friend/status/1320606998770053123 …

matilda ∞ is meditating (31/100 sits) @lilaexptbut at age 15 i was told that i would not be able to have children of my own, because of the chemo i got when i was 3. the chemo, apparently, did a number on my reproductive system. i have never had a menstrual cycle without the aid of synthetic hormones (see message to friend). pic.twitter.com/UC8PsCvW8MShow this thread2 replies 0 retweets 3 likes -
