A new report on depictions of abortion care on television shows indicates that, in 2025, fewer characters obtained abortions, with many demonstrating feelings of shame. Maybe this is a reflection of reality, but it feels more a reflection of the political climate than anything. #abortionaccess #abortioncare https://www.npr.org/2025/12/13/nx-s1-5639998/abortion-tv-2025-trends-the-pitt-call-the-midwife

This is an amazing concept....

Open Sourced "3D Printed" Pharmaceuticals

Build your own pill printing machine. Feed it an open sourced "recipe" / medical chemical compound instruction. Add some base ingredients. And make your own medicine.

This is an exceedingly solarpunk idea and could be a core aspect of a post-scarcity world as it relates to healthcare.

They have information about abortion medication (Misoprostol), ADHD medication (Vyvance), and more.

There are obvious issues - especially around quality control, safety, effectiveness, and application. And the makers address this - but wow. Just wow.

I very specifically have not verified any of this. But I'm incredibly interested in diving in and learning about it and its feasibility.

The anarchist collective behind this venture, Four Thieves Vinegar Collective (@4thievesvinegar), spoke at this last DefCon 32. See @mixael's talk here (via Peertube): https://kolektiva.media/w/uvD1wWTRoh7HEto8zeSswr

Here is a @404mediaco article by @jasonkoebler : https://www.404media.co/right-to-repair-for-your-body-the-rise-of-diy-pirated-medicine/

Here is their main website: https://fourthievesvinegar.org

Here is are the open sourced instructions (along with parts list - both purchased and off the shelf along with 3D printed parts): https://github.com/FourThievesVinegar/solderless-microlab

Definitely something to follow and learn more about. I'm excited and hope this is effective and grows.

(HT @aeischeid for highlighting the article and HT my dear friend for telling me about it after going to their DefCon talk!)

Initiative to enshrine #AbortionRights in #Missouri constitution qualifies for Nov ballot

MO voters will decide in Nov whether to guarantee a right to #abortion w/a constitutional amendment that would reverse the state’s near-total #ban on the procedure.

#Arizona voters will get to decide in Nov whether to add the right to an #abortion to the state constitution.

The AZ secretary of state’s office said Mon that it had certified 577,971 signatures — far above the required number that the coalition supporting the ballot measure had to submit in order to put the question before voters.

#AbortionAccess will officially be on #Arizona’s #ballot in November!

Activists obtained more than 500k signatures to get an #amendment protecting the right to #abortion on the ballot in November! That's over 100k more signatures than were required. This is great news because AZ is a swing state, and abortion drives huge voter turnout which historically benefits the #Democrats.

‘Readers across Texas found an unusual message in the Sunday editions of their newspapers: A letter from Gov. #MichelleLujanGrisham, inviting the neighboring state's medical providers to come work in #NewMexico.

In addition to the state's natural beauty, the governor touted New Mexico's commitment to "protecting women's health and abortion access" as one reason to move out of Texas, where nearly all abortions are banned.’ https://drive.proton.me/urls/6CNQ8ZMNHC#4l7E4U1r64HV #AbortionAccess
