STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE (1993-1999) “Emissary, Part. 1” (1.01)
It was an extremely cool and weird start to a new star trek to have the new captain (technically Sisko is a commander but who cares) be like “I know you didn’t mean to but you killed my wife >:(”
Absolutely and definitely delete your period tracking app. But if you’re in a state that criminalizes (or might criminalize) abortion, you will need to do more than that. You need to make sure that you DO NOT leave an electronic paper trail that could be used to prove that you might have intended to get an abortion. That means:
Only communicate about abortion access or your own possible desire to get an abortion using encrypted channels like Signal.
Because, as Cynthia Conti-Cook, a tech fellow at the Ford Foundation and the author of an influential study on abortion-related prosecutions and digital surveillance, said: “But in the handful of cases where state prosecutors have charged people with crimes related to abortion based on digital evidence, prosecutors have relied on more concrete evidence like search histories, text messages and emails.” (source)
Cecil. She/her. During the day I sit in libraries staring at books. During the night I write queer fanfiction with a historical slant.
Some not-so-random facts: Gay space lizards are the best lizards. Star Trek is my life. I have too many DS9 ships. Classic Who and the Eighth Doctor Adventures make me grin stupidly. Kelas Parmak is the best. I will defend historically accurate portrayals of Alan Turing to the last drop of blood. Likes and asks end up in the name of @apolesens-otheraccount, because Tumblr doesn't have a way of changing which blog is your primary one. Nothing happens over there - this is the one to follow.
