Because $EXI$M is not good enough for boys and girls

With any luck 🍀 some of them might find better ways to afford health insurance and a mode of transportation and a home and food and etcetra.

Great? Awkward?

How can you pay for that thing and that other thing and that thing too if you don't fit in enough with the environment that requires you to constantly make excuses and unsee things for a small portion of the population's convenience and inevitably dehumanize the people who the patriarchy taught you were the wrong ones to treat with respect?

She has endometriosis in California! So?

Better Things Can Still Happen!

If you ever have a nightmare that tells you an environment is simply too toxic for your health at the moment...

Partially because too many people are still going along with a sexist, albeist culture in exchange for a paycheck...

Hopefully you can heal and find a much better place to be in the future. 

Also, hopefully, places that were less than healthy in the past can still improve ALOT and be much better in the future, which is more likely to happen once they start admitting there's value in treating people decently.

Or, more straightforwardly, will Shepherd's Purse help stop the bleeding?
