Like Allyson is a person. As if.
Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness.
Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Aimee -- she's is but she isn't approving of it, you know?
Now that I've reread, yeah. I get what she's saying. My comprehension has been shot to hell.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I expect that I may have to go to war to insist that I am a person.
If only we had defenses against those sorts of attackers. Grenades are easier.

Aimée, I knew a woman years ago in Alabama who had to share her parental rights with the sack of shit who had date-raped her AND been previously issued a restraining order after an arrest outside of her house. The lesson: stay the hell out of family courts in redneck states.

That sound you just heard? Was my cousin exploding in rage and frustration in Sioux Falls. She's been working hard against this.

Geez, and here I thought that sound was the entire US leaping back in time to the early 20th century.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I do think it's likely that Roe v Wade will be reversed. And wondering how moderate Republicans plan to spin their voting for Alito.
Couldn't help but notice this:
The Planned Parenthood clinic in South Dakota has performed about 800 abortions a year.
If the state has already created such a hostile environment for abortions that there are only 800 performed a year, access for most women in the state has already been cut off.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
They know that this will immediatly be appealed - they're counting on this. They're hoping it will end up in the Supreme Court. And then they'll be hoping that the Supreme Court will overturn Roe v. Wade. Most people think this is a long shot - there's still (probably) a 5-4 majority that supports R. v W.
eta: sorta x-posty.

I think Alito was FOS. I think that he spewed a bunch of crap and BS to get confirmed, and the instant the opportunity to overturn RvW comes up, he'll chomp on it.
