The Latest SCOTUS Rulings: Two Steps Forward, One Step Back

Politics is a game of give and take. It is also a series of compromises. That being said, not everyone will agree with the final results.

Last week, SCOTUS ruled on two important subjects: gun control and abortion. The ban on bump stocks is no more. But access to mifepristone (aka the abortion pill) remains as is.

While I am grateful that my rights to my own body and healthcare are still the law of the land, I am disheartened by the overturning of the ban on bump stocks. As usual, this was a weekend that contained mass shootings and unecessary deaths.

Happy Father’s Day

Happy Father’s Day to the fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, and father substitutes out there. Thank you for loving us and raising us.

The Female Complaint: Tales of Unruly Women Book Review

Women have always had a voice. The problem is that we were told to either remain silent or speak on a limited number of topics.

The Female Complaint: Tales of Unruly Women was edited by Rosalie Morales Kearns. Published in 2015, it is an anthology of 36 short stories written by female authors. Each tells the story of a woman who boldly reveals her truth and follows her gut in a world that would tell her to shut up and sit down.

While it is not the best book that I have ever read, I like the variety of voices and tales.

Do I recommend it? Yes.

The Female Complaint: Tales of Unruly Women is available wherever books are sold.
