On a more positive note, early this morning I got an email from the Massachusetts board of health assuring me that our lovely commonwealth remains committed to providing for the health and well being of all citizens, and that contraceptives and abortions are and wil remain legal and covered by the state insurance plan. Not that you can walk into a walgreens and whip out your insurance card for a pack of Trojans, but like, birth control pills and IUDs.
Though I dunno, maybe you can get a prescription for condoms as well? Doctors seem perfectly happy to prescribe anything else, if I believe the news -- and it could be quite a boast in its own way. "Yeah, prescription strength, baby. Doc didn't want me makin' him too busy."
Though I have to say that sounds like the kind of line that only works when it's framed as a bit of self-deprecating mockery, actually delivering something like that straight would be the wrong kind of laughable. I suppose that brings back around to the rest of the thread.
