It's just like my grandpa used to tell me: "If the Twitter bros can't shut up about how much money they're making within the blurry paradigm of a so-called technological revolution, there's probably not much going on there."

Everyone has a take on the potential overturn of Roe vs. Wade, as they should. Legal action this monumental deserves to be talked about & thought about, publicly and often. But you know who else feels notably missing from the conversation?

Let's think about it. From the...
