went and made an isekai au for b.g3 and lemme tell you I'm having a blast with it.
#i did lower the metaphorical difficulty via well what if they became a sorcerer bc of whatever magical clownery that brought them there?#(this si when the magic manifests and realizes what their stats would probably be: well that doesn't sound correct)#and i don't really envision romances happening especially when they get bound up in the side character gang but who knows#but I'm having fun with finding out the dynamics when my si isn't the mc + how they'd get through it/work to get home#my bard's story is still my major fav (along with the ocs i have) but this is a fun experiment#especially when i haven't really done this kind of au before with other sources aside from like lo.tr y'know

Agatha All Along deep dive: episode 4 part 2
(Wandavision entries: [1][2][3])
(AAA entries: ep1 [1][2][3][4] ep2 [1][2][3][4] ep3 [1][2][3] ep4 [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][+1] ep5 [1][2][3][4][5] ep6 [1][2][3] ep7 [1][2][3][4][5][6] ep8 [1][2][3][4][5][6][7])
THE LITTLE FLOWER POPPIN. THE M'LADY
seems like agatha is having An Emotion
but look! look! rio is once again being super special extra on purpose!! because if she just strolled in agatha would be overwhelmed and run away again. so what does rio do??? she corners her with a grand zombie entrance!!! the more over the top she acts, the more agatha is in her element and comfortable interacting. and in this case, angry is a better start than sad. all part of rio's Brilliant 66-Steps-Plan To Win Her Wife Back™ (or was it 666?)
her face omg
oooh are you mad??? are you big mad at little ol' me???????
agatha is like nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope
imagine being aubrey plaza and being born so effortlessly cool. she's cool even when she's awkward dear lord
jen and alice: kinda stunned by both her hotness and her weirdness
lilia: VADE RETRO SATAN (lilia's spider senses are already tingling)
will I ever be over the fact that Death is just one particularly powerful green witch?? that she's a gentle if odd girl who grows plants and flowers and mushrooms and is called the River of Life??? that she is the embodiment of life in all her forms? that decay and regrowth are all part of the same natural cycle? that the hardest and most inexplicable thing a living being can go through is also the most reassuringly organic and normal???
have I already said "i love you patti lupone" today?
we're off to see the wizarrrrd. her cute peter pan outfit!
what do we think, billy? does she want to talk about it, or does she have the emotional maturity of a baby ostrich?
same girls, same
whoa there ladies, calm down. I'm already taken
lilia is also having an Emotion. it must be pretty weird to realize that your mortal foe is this hot
alice going NOPE when she sees her mom's house. the leaves are red alice, honey. it's your turn.
(does the back of rio's jacket look like a ribcage?)
it's going to be fine baby. your friends are all here. you can do this. deep breaths.
fire moon! fire moon! fire moon! oh this is my favorite trial
*grabs the mike* WOULD
from right to left: would, would, would, would, would, oh hi joe
rio: BITCH I AM?!?!?!?!?!?!? (everyone say thank you costume department)
the Road isn't subtle, BILLY.
sure, there wasn't enough sexual tension already, let's add side boobs, shall we? and rio being like hey agatha, hey agatha, hey. guess what. I'm here again agatha. you're not gonna get rid of me this time agatha.
I keep thinking that every reflection agatha comes across is a "te veo". and even when rio isn't there she is watching from mirrors and from puddles.
OH MY GAWD AGATHA how can you expect me to cope when you look around to make sure nobody is watching and then you lean in so so so sclose and then you say no with such a deep soulful voice and so much intimacy and such quiet anger and not one lil hint of clownery. I AM ABOUT TO GO FERAL
agatha around rio is like, mind screaming in anguish and body screaming in horny. lethal combination
lilia who's been trying and failing for centuries and centuries to come to terms with the violence human beings inflict on whoever is different
if there is one thing a broadway pro is trained to do is making people cry while wearing increasingly stupid wigs
JEN SEEING MASKS BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T KNOW WHO HIDES BEHIND THE MONSTER THAT BOUND HER
fletwood mac?!?!!?!?!?!?!? in this economy?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? I cannot handle much more of this, my emotions are raw and fragile and tender as it is already!!!!!!!!
oh, alice.
well this episode is making me feel like agatha: sad and horny. weird vibe but okay.
go to episode 4 part 3

call me by fire ep. 0
(youtube link)
i watched it so you don't have to. and also because i like trashy reality tv sometimes.
the premise of the entire show: 31 contestans, 5 competitions, double trials. they "compete for the third-generation family seats" (i think it's like the top 5 places or something?). they focus on "singing, dancing, composing and performing".
ep. 0: introductions and picking opponents for the preliminary competition.
the preliminary competition: 31 members divided into 10 groups for 1 vs 1 battle, with a total of 5 battles. the opponents were picked by chance (mostly. it's complicated. don't worry about it).
they have 100 minutes to prepare the performances. the five winning teams will be challenged by one other artist they invited (if he surpasses any of the teams he joins cmbf s3, if not he leaves).
the member ranked first in the winning group becomes the MVP and gets priority in choosing songs.
Jeff's appearances:
he appears for a bit at 20:44
32:22 - the interview (he was really cute)
35:25
38:18
a glimpse at 39:10
41:10 he talks to some of the others in english
41:46
another glimpse at 45:34 (he looks confused because the guy they're all greeting was in an accident where he got severely injured and he's still recovering so they're all impressed to see him)
47:14 a shot of everyone, he's in the front left
55:13 Jeff's team gets matched with their opponents (the "i'm hungry" line. as a kimchay fan i'm biting him)
56:23 another glimpse
i don't know why Jeff is in the vocal-dance group but his "special moves" are vocal, phin and thai. they each get their most famous work listed under their name - that's why "Fade" is there.
Jeff is in the "young ones" group (as one of the other contestants called them), most of the other participants are much older. and the participants range from actors to singers to models to dancers.
Jeff's team got matched with the dancers as their opponents.
overall opinion:
the contestants seem charismatic and likeable (no surprise there, with all of them having 10 years and more of experience in the industry). but i don't get the reason why most of them are participating? i think it's mainly to either have a break-through or because their careers are slowing down and they want advertising? this is my opinion, i don't know enough about any of them to really guess.
the english subtitles are surprisingly good.
i was continuously reminding myself that this is not the Jeff show because i kept pouting that he's not appearing on screen very often :(
would i watch this if Jeff wasn't in it? probably not. but Jeff is in it and my clownery knows no bounds so here we are.
#jeff satur#call me by fire#cmbf#anyways if anyone else watched it and i got something wrong feel free to correct me#i was mostly alert at the jeff moments and while trying to figure out how this show works#i think i got it right? it wasn't that hard to follow tbh#tea's ramblings#the clowning gets worse every day#ugh i needed a distraction today#this worked pretty great

I only got into formula 1 at the end of 2021 but I kinda guessed it would be like this because everyone was hyping up mercs relationship with lewis and yet they went and partied when he lost the championship? Babes I grew up with my brothers being in lots of sports, and none of those sports people would ever do something like that, with the way lewis lost.
They would be too angry and upset to celebrate the teams win. They would forget they would win because nothing compared to what had happened.
So I was a bit ?????? When they hyped up merc. Esp with the more I learnt ( it sort of sounds like lewis had to use a bit of force behind the diversifying merc program)
Anyways, while we all know lewis is too loyal to leave merc, are there any team where if lewis joined you would pretend lewis retired? If ford joined f1 and lewis went with them I would pretend that lewis retired, deleted all of his social media and went off grid. My hatred for Found On Rubbish Dump knows no bounds
yeah, that was horrible! i mean i get that there was a lot to celebrate with their 8th wcc or whatever but yeah the nature of celebration was nasty indeed given what'd just happened. i still can't remember a single moment after that restart despite watching the whole thing, such is my trauma and i'm not even a part of it, but anyway... we're told by some that it's their way of grieving and we shouldn't question it so i'll just shut up.
well, f1 being inherently for white elites, he had to use a lot of will and later his power to push for diversity in general tbh and i don't see why merc would be an exception. and they probably just saw it as another usp and a valuable business tool and went with it. which, works for me, as long as it's moving the needle in the right direction.
and yeah, rbr and so ford by default. not that he'd ever go there but that's one move i will find hard to digest. the shit they've put him through and are still putting him through, would be hard to reason with, for me. but also ferrari, if i really think about it. especially because those fans have given him hell when he was whooping their ass. sometimes i think he should go to ferrari and win just so tifosi are forced to worship him 💀 but obviously i don't want to subject him to all that clownery for my entertainment and satisfaction.
honestly, loyalty or not, i don't think he will ever leave mercedes, it's his legacy, no matter what. and mutually beneficial. he will look for something long term with them. that would make a lot of sense, business wise too.

'unwinding of the fall (BLACK SWAN AU BABY)' 'the ripple of tenderness (a corrupted tide)'
— i would like to know intimately about both of these things please and please 🌺💛🌹
oh i love you and i am SO sorry for what i am about to unleash on you
unwinding of the fall
(lovingly shortened to just black swan by a friend of mine) is my magnum opus that i have been slaving over for more than 7 months now. it's my first too-ambitious writing project that now spans upwards of 60K words, 14 chapters, a lot of mental breakdowns and is unfortunately nowhere close to being finished.
the premise is pretty simple – the 2022 formula 1 season reimagined through the lens of the obsessed artist; the fatality of devotion and the intricacies of how ambition can deteriorate into fanaticism. i borrow a few plot points, themes and dialogue from the movie black swan but it all takes place in the f1 cinematic universe.
in terms of plot, i am keeping all the results the same until summer break (it's like ferrari did all that clownery specifically for my sadistic streak) and then afterwards i am taking some hefty artistic liberties in order to self-serve my agenda and accompany charles' even bigger spiral into insanity (he's my final girl and my fav literary lab rat). all of this is accompanied by a lot of surrealistic elements, manipulation, hallucinations, disordered behaviour and a bunch of other things i will probably have to tw.
in terms of characters, i envision charles as the white swan and max as the black swan. however, i don't want them to have the same kind of jagged rivalry as nina and lily in the beginning – it doesn't make sense with their personalities now and i think it's going to be even more devastating if max is genuinely trying to get close to charles and charles is a bit hesitant but he starts to lean towards the freely given affections until Something (if you've watched the movie, i think you know what im referring to) happens and he gets a rude awakening, gets stuck in his head and start to twist things. this is where their rivalry starts to lean towards something more tense, an amalgamation of internal strife and becoming a victim to the turbulent flow of events and expectations that start to control you.
(of course, it doesn't help that he hallucinates a more volatile and cunning version of max, which pushes him in the wrong direction. that's neither here nor there.)
this is already too long i am SO SORRY, i will try to keep this brief
silverstone
"Perfection is not just about precision, it’s not always about predetermination,” starts Max, his eyes boring into him with the intensity of nuclear fission. His thumb brushes gently over Charles’ jaw, back and forth for a moment until it settles underneath the bone. The calming movement coaxes Charles to exhale some leftover dregs, softly so as to not obscure Max’s face. The calm before the storm.
Max takes Charles in, kneeling before him and teetering on the edge of something. Max’s gaze maps him out, trying to find the stray thread and pull. “You cannot save yourself from this if you stifle your driver instincts in the process,” he continues. “You’re not here because you can do calculations in your head. You’re here because you can feel the car better than most, because you can find that golden balance between sending it and staying in control, between holding on and letting go.”
His thumb digs further, hand almost painfully grasping his chin and bringing Charles’ face even closer. “You’re so afraid of not having a contingency plan that you con yourself into believing you can account for all of it. And when something goes astray, like it always does—” Max’s voice catches on the exit, barely louder than a whisper at this point, aimed directly at his lips “—you shatter to pieces because you still cannot bear the fact that some things are bound to be out of your control."
france
He looks up, lets his head fall back listlessly and pull on the pain in his neck, and closes his eyes. He doesn’t seek guidance or explanation or a sign because he knows this is all on him. He doesn’t deserve any consolation and it’s not like he will get any. The gods above have forsaken him, the ivory of their statues crumbled into remnants he can brush off of his shoulders like lint. There are only the gods on earth who he is accountable to, who will weigh his guilt on the unbalanced scale of justice and demand their pound of flesh. He feels the hairline fractures on his skull proliferate. He feels the anger, thick and heavy, seeping from his ears and staining the car at his feet. He feels pure unadulterated rage, something disfigured and depraved squeezing the nerves from his limbs like wet rags.
He opens his eyes and sees only the sun and the blue sky. He wants to swallow them up like Chronos.
zandvoort
“Let go, Charles,” barely a breath but it resonates like a church bell, a clandestine command. His lips the belladonna petals, his tongue the dagger at his jugular.
Charles listens to his – their – skin whisper and he lets himself go.
Charles drags Max back to him and plunges into this, into Max’s mouth and his iron-clad embrace with an iron-willed determination, metal scraping against metal a siren call that clogs his ears and brain with cotton. He doesn’t grow pliant – he meets Max blow for blow, bruise for bruise. He doesn’t extinguish the fight but leans into it, sinks into the embrace of violence and rejoices.
He feels Max’s teeth in his neck, in his heart and Charles hopes the bite hurts, hopes that Max’s teeth reach bone and everything shatters
the ripple of tenderness (a corrupted tide)
i cannot for the life of me write normal people romance and this silly little story exists solely bc of a friend of mine who incites all kinds of gooey feelings in me. in the beginning i thought it's going to be a nice break from the seriousness of my longer wip but now it's sitting there at 15K and still unfinished.
it's a very standard magical realism trope aka charles falls under a love spell that makes him fall in love with the first person he sees, which surprise surprise, is max, who has been in love with him for ages! wow, who would've thought.
however, i wanted to subvert this take a little bit by making charles not completely lose his mind. i want him to be freely affectionate but with enough rational thoughts online that he feels very disconcerted about not being in control, about potentially making max uncomfortable, about showing so much vulnerability against his own volition. and max, who is such a sweetheart, tries to reassure charles at the cost of his sanity and slowly fraying heart since all of charles' affections are obviously fabricated. i think the slight angst with the inescapable tenderness of their interactions will make for a good combination! but what do i know
snippy snip
Just when he starts to focus a bit too much on all of this, he feels Charles envelop the hand resting on his cheek with his own and push further into it in a complete act of heatstroke-induced insanity. He turns his face back around where Max’s palm doesn’t obfuscate it and finally, painstakingly, opens his eyes.
Max stops breathing for a second.
In Max’s opinion, he hasn’t spent nearly enough time looking into Charles’ eyes. Eye contact has always been a painstaking affair, trying to find an optimal balance between looking into Charles’ eyes and away during their talks in such a way that it would not allude to anything more. Charles’ eyes can look vastly different under different lights – striking green in direct sunlight, molten hazel on rainy days, overtaken by specs of yellow under fireworks. But there is always a simmering warmth there, which can either reach the fiery heights of ambition or the honeyed flames of attentiveness.
Max looks into Charles’ eyes now and feels like Charles is looking through Max’s eyes and into him as a whole. It feels innocently invasive, like a caress that catches on a hangnail. His eyes sparkle with something unnatural and the blush across his cheeks unfurls and fans out until it reaches his neck. The rosy colour of it looks almost sickly. Max unclasps the tunnel visions from his eyesight and realises that Charles’ features as a whole are glossed over with a sheen of misplaced sentiment, spelling something resembling foreboding.
“Max,” Charles whispers, spilling the breaths incasing his name almost into Max’s mouth. His voice is soft like gossamer, his gaze a gentle brushstroke on the contours of Max’s face and Max knows something is undeniably wrong.
Fuck.
so yeah! (lame ass concluding sentence again) thank you so much for asking ! and i will send you your bereavement damages check for dealing with all of this in the mail in 3-5 business days!

*shakes you* i just thought of something and you and @itoshi-s are going to suffer with me🤕(read devils night guys it’s so hot)
bad boy! rin being sent to clean up his act at a private university for the esteemed to make sure the itoshi family name is no longer being tarnished but his parents naive thoughts of sending their youngest son to a boarding school and hope he magically turns into an angel that’s fit for his arranged marriage with a nuisance who’s after his money is ridiculous. rin isn’t bound to a single rule and does what he pleases as he walks the halls of the posh boarding school, giving the founding headmaster’s valued portrait the finger.
here comes you, who thrives off of academic validation who’s not afraid to keep her sharp tongue to herself. the youngest son of itoshi is here? scoff. he’s nothing but a jerk decorated in unbuttoned blazers and popped up collars with his fathers name to hide behind his acts of clownery. you don’t miss a chance to say it to the taller male’s face, his eyes practically boring holes into your own as if to memorize your look of annoyance at him. rin likes challenges but he thinks he’s going to love this one. he’ll make sure by the end of the school year he’ll have you on your knees, bowing in forgiveness, he says that you with a glare to make babies cry. with his thoughts rushing on how to make you beg for mercy you unleash a harsh slap to his face. stunning everyone in the common room and ignoring the gasps of surprise. “you better clean up your act itoshi or else you’ll lose everything including your family name.” you dare slap an itoshi? you’ve got bigger balls than everyone at this school. rin thinks the adrenaline you gave him in a second is the best feeling he’s ever had in years.
from that day on rin decided to play the good boy. smiles and effortless straight A’s to please his professors and make things work out in his favor, but his enjoyment isn’t getting the staff to kiss his feet, it’s backing you into corners of the library so that no one would catch on to mr. changed attitude wanting to keep his quiet, nerd to himself. you let him. slowly, but surely you break down each others walls as he allows himself to be vulnerable with you and shares his burdens of being the youngest son, always being forced into being his older brother’s shadow. but for once. just once, he had something his brother doesn’t have. he has you. he makes you feel warm and he fiercely keeps you safe from the judging eyes of his father as he peers down at you. as if he was looking at a lowly commoner. “you throw away your fiancée for someone like this?” “i’d throw away the family name in honor for her.” he walks away with his head held high, ignoring the stoic stare of his older brother as he smirks at the eldest, smirk growing wider at his words. “you’ll never inherit the itoshi name.” “i won’t inherit it alone. my family will.”
he beat his brother in not being able to continue the family name. he makes sure he pounds the thought into you as he thrusts feverishly into you as the moon shines a white sheet of light on your bodies. he makes love to you greedily as he marks your skin in red and purple, the marks blooming onto your skin like flowers. he loves you, he loves that no one in the world can know him and love him like you do.
“i’m going to put a fucking ring on that finger in front of my brother,” he growls. “no matter how far or high they separate me from you, you are mine and we’re going to live in a big house with you warming our bed.” he puts his forehead against yours, “and you will give me an itoshi heir.”
kayla what the— wHAT THE FRICKITY FRACK FHUUUCCKKK. !&!@! WHAT THE SHEEEEEII WHAT THE HOLYY FUCJCING SHIITT ??@!!!?? you DARE drop this ATOMIC ASS FUCKING BOMB ON ME???? OUTTA NOWHERE??

they way i had to LITERALLY. TAKE. BREAKS. reading this so i could reduce my unholy demon spawn screeching to a minimum (spoiler: it DID NOT WORK) thIS IS FOUL THIS IS ILLEGAL I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU SOBBING
and oooohhhhhh i’m such a slut for academic settings :(((( especially when rich entitled bastard boy with a shitty past meets driven and cunning number 1 girl and they CLASH and have BRUTAL BANTER and have THE FILTHIEST MAKE OUT SESSIONS AGAINST PRICELESS BOOKSHELVES im clawing my eyes out
rin showing up to the posh uni like it’s his own personal playground, pretending like he owns this place much like everything else in his life due to his family’s wealth and status only to get mfing owned in turn and SLAPPED IN THE FACE (LITERALLY!!!) BUT HE FEELS EUPHORIC INSTEAD OF AGGRAVATED OOOOHHHH SO HE JUST HAS TO HAVE YOU GOD BESTIE U KNOW HOW TO GET ME GOING </3333 and then he pretends to be a good little student so he can get close to you:( keep you all to himself sniffle so possessive:( but the ANGST BC OF SAE >:(((( but now he also has you to patch up the empty cold pieces inside of him ur his future fuck his family 🥺🥺🥺🫶🫶🫶🫶 he’ll create a new one with you anyway AAAAAAAHHHDJFNFN so fucking UnWeLL

Your local Law PhD is going through the draft SCOTUS ruling overturning Roe / Casey and here are a few thoughts, if you want a quick overview of the thing as I get angrier with each new point, culminating in me loosing my absolute shit :
The main argument is basically "yeah, we are bound by Casey, but Casey relies on Roe, and Roe was wrong, so we can overturn all that"
This is not a drill, this is the actual, proper, end of Roe and federal protection of abortion, if this passes.
"this was not protected in the XIIIth century England, and there fore should not be protected now" is an actual legal argument that I had to read with my own two eyes
Quick reminder : overturning Roe/Casey does not ban abortion, but it says that there is no constitutional right to abortion at federal level, and therefore this is for each individual US state to decide
The draft basically says that this is State business, specifically, the legislative power of each states should decide.
but what worries me is that if a State wanted to actually criminalize abortion, the same reasoning could hold. Meaning that SCOTUS would not give any costitutional protection to the one being prosecuted, because historically the tradition is to criminalize rather than protect their right. Basically while this does not make abortion a crime, it lets the States decide up to an including criminalizing it
This would still be under the control of each State's own Supreme Court though.
I am pretty sure SCOTUS writing 100-pages long rulings is a self-defense mechanism where if you ever want to litigate to overturn a ruling, it is a dantesque effort
(more under the cut bc this got long oops)
The sheer clownery of assessing a scholarly article as not acceptable argument because it "advances ideological goal", as your entire reasoning is based on the originalist doctrine ????
SO MUCH OF THIS REASONING IS BASICALLY HISTORICAL DISCUSSION OF WHETHER, HOW MUCH AND HOW WOMEN HAD ABORTION IN THE XVIII CENTURY WHYYYYYY
"Looking into the legislative motives of legislator who are still alive and can give explanation to why they pass laws supporting abortion rights is too dodgy, let's stick to old XVIIIth century manuscript written by men telling us how women handled their preganancies"
I started sweating buckets when the draft also got into other precedents on the decriminalization of homosexuality, interracial marriage, other reproductive rights... but so far the draft says that "yeah, but abortion involved a potential life of another person, so it's different". Even though the draft goes "yeah, they also have no basis in history though". YERK.
The audacity of saying "oh and we treat pregnant women real well now !!" and supporting this by giving statistics on UNPAID FAMILY LEAVE ???
"Also the foster care system is doing great" BITCH SAY THAT AGAIN TO MY FACE
The audacity of invoking Brown v Board of Education, which ended the separate-but-equal doctrine, to support overturning Roe/Casey sent me to Hell to prep a cozy room for a few people there
( Alito discussing why Stare Decisis has the same energy as that GIF of BArbossa going "“The code is more what you'd call 'guidelines' than actual rules.”" )
One argument is that the test of "undue burden" is too vague to be workable, but it follows the part where the draft whines about SCOTUS being way too specific on Roe and overtstepping its role by doing so ??!? Please make up your mind ??
Also, Alito, you are a jurist. A lawyer. You KNOW that legal standards are vague. That's what they are for. They are legal standards. They are MEANT to be vague while still giving sufficient visibility in the future. You are not convincing any single lawyer, here.
Even "necessary" abortion are not protected, because, really what does "necessary" even mean ? Who can say ? Would it include protecting a someone whose pregnancy places her life in danger ? Would it include a sexually assulted teenager who does not want the pregnancy resulting from this ? Who is to say ? Certain not Alito, according to him.
"Casey is bad because it gave people ideas and made it potentially easier for them to get their right constitutionnaly protected " is not the hot take I expected in the year of our lord 2022 yet here we are.
Who can say if abortion really helped women be trly equal citizen and facilitated their involvement in society as equal to men ? Who can ? that's a really tough empirical question, according to Alito. But that fine !! And like, they have the right to vote !!! So it's fine. If they are really mad about that, they can just vote at State level.
Quick question : have you talked to a woman who is NOT an upper class straight cis white woman, recently ?
"How dare you say that the ruling of the sCOTUS could be influenced by the public's reaction ?? I am a JUDGE. Appointed by a President elected based on political preferences, confirmed by a legislative body whose members are elected based on their political preferences, but the Court is TOTALLY ABOVE THAT" Bro I am from a Civil law country and even I will not defend my Supreme Court like that.
"We must now decide which standard will govern abortion" hold up I am going to need alcohol for that
Wait what
There is no standard
You mentioned a new standard where is the new standard
THERE IS NO STANDARD
WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN WE NEED TO DECIDE ON THE STANDARD ??? YOU SPENT 30 PAGES PONTIFICATING ON THE SOCIAL ACCEPTANCE ABORTION IN XIVTH CENTURY ENGLAND AND YOU ARE GOING TO GIVE THE ACTUAL ANSWER TO THE QUESTION AT HAND IN 3 PARAGRAPHS ?????
DON'T SAY TOY ARE GOING TO SET A STANDARD IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO SET A STANDARD
"RATIONAL-BASIS REVIEW" IS BARELY A STANDARD IT'S BASICALLY JUST GOING "YEAH STATES CAN DO WHATEVER THEY WANT AS LONG AS THEY GIVE A REASON"
YOU DID NOT EVEN HAVE TO GO THAT FAR
BUT YOU DID ?!???!?!
YOU BASICALLY OPENED THE DOOR TO A TOTAL AND ABSOLUTE BAN ON ABORTION AND THE CRIMINALIZATION OF ABORTION WHEN EVEN THE LAW YOU WERE ASKED TO REVIEW DID NOT GO THAT FAR
BUT YEAH SURE WE WOULD N E V E R WANT THE SCOTUS TO OVERSTEP ITS POWER TO IMPLEMENT POLICY PREFERENCES
