Finance and math-minded, anti-authoritarian, upper class and upper middle class (capable of more hastily breaking the classist glass ceiling), USAmerican women must pursue entry into U.S. Federal Reserve roles. The capability of USAmerican women and family units including girls to financially organize to leave the United States is likely to soon be materially, via indirect policy and "many decisions on individual case basis" of the Reserve, challenged. It is already, currently, fully legal for the Reserve to do so with complete confidentiality.
Gen Z and A USAmerican women from upper middle class to upper class backgrounds entering university, study finance and related subjects. Compete to and join your most prestigious financial student organizations, available internships and co-ops. Participate in data-oriented and finance-oriented hackathons.
Control of the U.S. dollar is already weaponized against you by the Reserve and by creditors. With alt-right (across wealth classes) flooding pollwork up to public offices, the public sector will be weaponized more strongly against you than it has been in decades.
Seizing of the Reserve by women must occur as rapidly as possible.

Reproductive Justice is not just about cis women!
I’ve noticed a disappointing lack of inclusivity in our conversations about the recent leak on Roe v. Wade. Most of the posts I’ve seen talking about the overturning of this case have talked solely about women and women’s rights. Protests have also been occurring frequently under the title of “women’s marches''. I am all for the protests, but it is important that we remember that women are not the only people who can get pregnant, and not all women can get pregnant at all. To use the term “women” erases gender-noncomforming and trans* people from the conversation in so many ways. For all of the trans men, non-binary people, and other gender-noncomforming people who can get pregnant, please update the way you talk about reproductive justice to use more inclusive language. Terms like “people who might get pregnant”, “people with uteruses'', or even “people of childbearing age” are easy to use and helpful for community building support. Using these terms can help everyone feel included in this issue which affects so many. This case and the effects it will have on reproductive rights are not just limited to cis women, and it is exclusionary and often hurtful to refer to it as if it did. 
The issue of reproductive justice reaches deep into the idea of bodily autonomy, which is extremely important for the trans* community. If people do not have bodily autonomy about abortion or birth control, trans* people’s rights to choose things like hormone replacement therapy, surgery, and pregnancy are also violated. Furthermore, I have noticed way less media concern about recent anti-trans legislation since the news about Roe v. Wade dropped. These legislations are of huge concern and are extremely dangerous for trans* youth, so it is very important that we don’t forget about them in the wake of this new news. I think it is critical that everyone who can get pregnant feel included in this fight and be willing to support one another in movements beyond reproductive justice. 
This news leak and the social media response also begs us to talk about how reproductive justice has been and continues to be a racialized issue. In the aftermath of the leak, I have read hundreds of comments (mostly from white women) comparing this “new reality” to the world depicted in The Handmaid’s Tale. The world depicted in that series is not a fantasy, though, it was based on the injustices and horrors that People of Color have been facing for decades. From forced pregnancies and rape to forced sterilizations, none of this is new, so it is insensitive to act as though it is. These injustices are intersectional in nature and are of course impacted by race, gender identity and expression, (dis)ability, and wealth. 
Reproductive justice must center and value the experiences of all people who have been denied bodily autonomy and the right to choose. This must include trans* people, people of color, disabled people, immigrants, and people living in poverty along with unlimited groups of historically under-represented people. Please make sure you are staying conscious of the intersectionality of reproductive justice. Seek out resources by people of color, disabled people, etc. in an effort to educate yourself, as well as educating the people around you about the importance of this when the opportunity arises. I urge you to donate to abortion funds and trans* support/mutual aid funds in your area if you can, and also make sure to reach out and support your loved ones however you are able.

hey pro-tip for people who can become pregnant, plan B only works best if you weigh below 155 lbs, Ella works best if you weigh below 195 lbs, and if you weigh over that your main alternative to an emergency contraceptive is a copper IUD. this is just one of many examples of healthcare that is fatphobic bc i see people totally uninformed about it
edit: remember that “works best” doesn’t mean “it doesn’t work”- it can still prevent pregnancy if you are over the recommended weights, it’s just less effective. for a fat person to have the same guarantee as a thinner person they’d have to go for an IUD, which is less accessible and palatable to a lot of people, which is total b.s. and the fact that nobody is taught this is evidence of fatphobia

"You chose to have a kid"
A key point in framing is that almost every anti-choice idiot says, is that they always frame it as "the choice to have a kid". Specifically, in this case:
"You chose to have sex, so you have to deal with the kid"
Let's just...side-step the puritanical root of punishing people for having sex, and the actual, sincere belief that humans Not Having Sex is something we can actually achieve, which is stupid.
People explicitly make choices to not have kids when they have sex, too.
There are whole swaths of things that men and women do, hopefully overlapping, to not have kids.
Tumblr media
None of them are 100% effective. Even Female and Male sterilization aren't 100% effective, other than a full blown hysterectomy.
Literally, a man and a woman can both go to a doctor, have actual surgeries performed so they don't have kids, have sex with one another, and still wind up pregnant. Especially if it's in the first few years after their surgeries are performed. Surgeries which have weeks to months of recovery time, planning, and costing thousands of dollars each.
I choose to go to work every day; punishing me for getting hit by a cab as a "potential outcome" of going to work is fucking ludicrous. People smoking are more likely to get a cancer, but we still treat them in hospitals. Getting AIDS from donating blood is a thing that can happen, but you're damn well going to sue the hospital or agency that gave you AIDS. I can play the lottery every day and eventually win a million dollars, but it's still "the stupid tax" and actually thinking it will happen is the literal Gold Standard for "not gonna happen".
Nowhere else in society do we accept bullshit like that except when we're talking about controlling women and their sex lives for doing things you don't want them to. And it's always, always from the same people who want the woman to deliver the baby (which itself has a high risk of just killing the mom outright, especially in the US) who don't want to feed the baby when it's delivered, who don't want to give it a home or clothes or healthcare.
Again, that's before we even get to:

"In short: Nine million Canadian women of reproductive age will have the full cost of their contraception covered as part of a major health care reform, the government says.
The reform includes the most widely used contraceptive methods, such as IUDs, contraceptive pills, hormonal implants and the day after pill.
What's next? The government must still win the approval of Canada's provinces, which administer health care."
"Canada will cover the full cost of contraception for women, the government says as it highlights the first part of a major health care reform.
The government will pay for the most widely used contraceptive methods, such as IUDs, contraceptive pills, hormonal implants or the day after pill, for the nine million Canadian women of reproductive age, Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said on Sunday at a press conference in a pharmacy in Toronto.
"Women should be free to choose the contraceptives they need without cost getting in the way. So, we're making contraceptives free," Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on X, formerly Twitter.
The announcement fleshes out the first part of a bill unveiled in February that, once completed, would mark the biggest expansion of Canada's publicly funded health care system in decades.
This new regime will also cover the cost of diabetes medication for some 3.7 million Canadians.
The cost of the new system and timing of the launch have not been announced...
The government must now win the approval of Canada's provinces, which actually administer health care, for this new system. Alberta and Quebec have already said they would opt out.
The pharmacare plan — as it is called locally — follows protracted negotiations between Mr Trudeau's Liberal minority government and a small leftist faction in parliament.
The New Democratic Party agreed to prop up the Liberals until the fall of 2025, on the condition that the government immediately launch the drug program."

Patriarch Kirill, head of the Russian Orthodox Church, has called for an all-Russian ban on “encouraging women to have abortions” in order to combat the demographic crisis
“As a member of the clergy, I testify that an abortion is a disaster and a tragedy for the woman and those close to her,” Kirill said in January, per the BBC.
Putin sees it as “an acute problem,” per the BBC. Kirill says anti-abortion policies are the solution.

Map: States where you can get birth control from a pharmacist
Arizona last week became the latest in a growing group of states that allow people to get birth control from a pharmacist without a doctor’s prescription.
Since 2016, 29 states and Washington, D.C., have passed laws allowing pharmacists to prescribe hormonal contraception such as birth control pills and patches. Arizona’s new policy, announced Thursday, applies to people 18 years and older and comes on the heels of similar legislation that Rhode Island Gov. Dan McKee, a Democrat, signed into law last month.
