Dog Vaccinations: Schedules, Types, Cost and Their Requirements
Dog Vaccinations: Schedules, Types, Cost and Their Requirements
Dog vaccinations play an important role in protecting your dog from many deadly diseases. Core vaccines should be given to dogs of all breeds, while non-core vaccines are based on the dog’s lifestyle or climate and living conditions of the geographic area. Core vaccines include distemper, rabies, parvovirus, and more, while non-core vaccines include shots like Lyme, Bordetella, and…

I don't know how possible it is for revolution to happen when America exists. You've seen enough posts by Americans to know they are incapable of having their own revolution, and you know enough history that America will stamp out communism wherever it takes place. I don't like that and I wish it wasn't the case, but that's the reality of the situation.
Tumblr media
Okay but for real:
Usamericans do have a real tendency to not have consistently revolutionary ideas, but you gotta remember that we are extremely overexposed to a certain slice of the usamerican population. Not only is the country very overrepresented on the internet, but we also (here) only encounter the set of usamericans who use tumblr. I don't think that usamericans are particularly incapable of revolutionary ideas when compared to other places in the imperial core (they are obviously much worse when compared to non-imperialist countries)
Capitalism within a country will eventually be weakened by whatever thing that occurs, and the same is true for the international system of imperialist capitalism. Yes, the CIA is dedicated to the task of impeding communist revolutions, but they aren't particularly adept at it. In many cases in south america, failed attempts were able to be sabotaged because of a weakness in the revolutionaries, weaknesses which we learn from. For example, Allende's assassination taught us that, even if power is reached through parliamentarism, it is not enough to rid the country of capitalist elements able to sabotage us.
But, my friend, just like we aren't perfect, they aren't either. The CIA was unable to crush the Cuban revolution because the Cubans took enough preemptive measures, because they didn't lower their guard, because the CIA was particularly inept at some attempts, like the Bay of Pigs fiasco, and because of external circumstances like the eventual appearance of soviet nuclear missiles which made intervention much trickier. This did come at the cost of less of Cuba's resources being invested into development.
We will have our defeats, and they will have theirs. Ours will be at greater numbers, but theirs will be colossal and much more difficult to correct. No economic system is eternal, feudalism was the main form of production for a good millennia, and it all went crashing down. Capitalism will do the same, and so will socialism one day give way to a communist society.
Now that we are approaching yet another 1st of May, the international workers' day, I encourage the reader to think how far we've come from the very first one in 1889 and the second international. How much progress workers worldwide have made, both achieving more and more respect in our respective capitalist countries (the first May Day was called as a worldwide demand for the 8 hour workday!) and in creating our own workers' states. Just in China, hundreds of millions of people were lifted from their illiterate and miserable peasant's lives, at the mercy of warlords for hundreds if not thousands of years, through the efficiency of socialism. Thomas Sankara vaccinated millions of children, ended generalized illiteracy, ended genital mutilation and kicked out the french colonizers in just 4 years.
It is very understandable to sometimes fall into defeatism at the face of a seemingly infinite mechanism of oppression. But we have to remember all of those who defeated it locally, and the many more who tried against all odds. I don't know you, friend, but I'm confident when I say that you and me are the descendants of workers, and we are workers ourselves. You and I struggle for a better world free of exploitation of man by man, even for the extremely annoying shitlibs we encounter here. Do not be consumed by the constant arguing and negativity found in social media, the real fight is with our Parties, organizing our own class whether it's through the union, the Party, or any other organization. I don't know about you, but this blog is just an outlet for being a long-winded marxist unable to write a simple sentence, I spend even more time interacting with my comrades and with unpoliticized students. Social media (especially tumblr) will never be a real avenue for change beyond what spreading awareness and occasional education can do.

"I am going to try to explain to you how we reorganized the autonomy, that is, the new structure of the Zapatista autonomy. I will explain more later in more detail. Or maybe I won't explain more, because practice is what matters. Of course you can also come to the anniversary and watch the plays, songs, poems and the art and culture of this new stage of our struggle. If not, Tercios Compas will send you photos and videos there. At another time I will tell you what we saw good and bad in the critical evaluation of MAREZ and JBG. Now I'll just tell you how it looks. Goes:
First. – The main base, which is not only where autonomy is sustained, also without which the other structures cannot function, is the Local Autonomous Government, GAL .
There is a GAL in each community where Zapatista support bases live. The Zapatista GAL are the core of all autonomy. They are coordinated by autonomous agents and commissioners and are subject to the assembly of the town, ranchería, community, area, neighborhood, ejido, colony, or however each population calls itself. Each GAL controls its autonomous organizational resources (such as schools and clinics) and the relationship with neighboring non-Zapatista sister towns. And control the proper use of the pay. It also detects and reports mismanagement, corruption and errors that may exist. And he is attentive to those who want to pass themselves off as Zapatista authorities to ask for support or aid that they use for their own benefit.
So, if before there were a few dozen MAREZ, that is, Zapatista Rebel Autonomous Municipalities, now there are thousands of Zapatista GALs.
Second. – According to their needs, problems and progress, various GALs are convened into Zapatista Autonomous Government Collectives, CGAZ, and here they are discussed and agreements are made on matters that interest the convening GALs. When they so determine, the Collective of Autonomous Governments calls an assembly of the authorities of each community. Here the plans and needs of Health, Education, Agroecology, Justice, Commerce, and those that are needed are proposed, discussed and approved or rejected. At the CGAZ level there are the coordinators of each area. They are not authorities. Their job is to ensure that the work requested by the GAL or that is deemed necessary for community life is carried out. Such as, for example: preventive medicine and vaccination campaigns, campaigns for endemic diseases, courses and specialized training (such as laboratory technicians, , traditional festivities, etc. Each region or CGAZ has its directors, who are the ones who call assemblies if there is an urgent problem or one that affects several communities.cThat is to say, where before there were 12 Good Government Boards, now there will be hundreds.
Third. – Then follow the Assemblies of Collectives of ZAPATISTA Autonomous Governments, ACGAZ.
Which are what were previously known as zones. But they have no authority, but depend on the CGAZ. And the CGAZ depend on the GAL. The ACGAZ convenes and presides over zone assemblies, when necessary according to the requests of GAL and CGAZ. They are based in the caracoles, but move between regions. In other words, they are mobile, according to the people's demands for attention.
Fourth. – As can be seen in practice, the Command and Coordination of Autonomy has been transferred from the JBG and MAREZ to the towns and communities, to the GAL. The zones (ACGAZ) and the regions (CGAZ) are governed by the people, they must be accountable to the people and find a way to meet their needs in Health, Education, Justice, Food and those that arise due to emergencies caused by disasters. natural disasters, pandemics, crimes, invasions, wars, and the other misfortunes that the capitalist system brings.
Fifth. – The structure and disposition of the EZLN has been reorganized in order to increase the defense and security of the towns and mother earth in the event of aggressions, attacks, epidemics, invasion of companies that prey on nature, partial or total military occupations, catastrophes natural disasters and nuclear wars. We have prepared so that our people survive, even isolated from each other.
Sixth. – We understand that you have problems assimilating this. And that, for a while, they will struggle to understand it. It took us 10 years to think about it, and of those 10 years, 3 to prepare it for its practice.
We also understand that it seems to you that your thinking is scrambled. That is why it is necessary to change your channel of understanding. Only by looking far away, backwards and forwards, can the present step be understood.
We hope you understand that it is a new structure of autonomy, that we are just learning and that it will take a while to get well.
In reality, this statement has only the intention of telling you that Zapatista autonomy continues and advances, that we think it will be better for the towns, communities, places, neighborhoods, colonies, ejidos and rancherías where they live, that is, the bases of Zapatista support. And that it has been their decision, taking into account their ideas and proposals, their criticisms and self-criticisms. Also, as will be seen, this new stage of autonomy is made to confront the worst of the Hydra, its most infamous bestiality and its destructive madness. Their wars and business and military invasions.
For us, there are no borders or distant geographies. Everything that happens in any corner of the planet affects us and concerns us, worries us and hurts us. To the extent of our very small strength, we will support human beings in distress regardless of their color, race, nationality, belief, ideology and language. Although we do not know many languages or understand many cultures and ways, we know how to understand the suffering, pain, sorrow, and dignified rage that the system provokes.
We know how to read and listen to brother hearts. We will continue trying to learn from them, their stories and their struggles. Not only because we have suffered from this for centuries and we know what it is like. Also and above all because, as for 30 years, our fight is for life. Surely we have made many mistakes in all these years. We will surely do more in the next 120 years. But we will NOT give up, we will NOT change path, we will NOT sell out. We will always be reviewing our struggle, its times and ways with a critical eye.
Our eyes, our ears, our heads and our hearts will always be ready to learn from others who, although different in many things, have our same concerns and similar desires for democracy, freedom and justice. And we will always seek the best for our people and for our sister communities. We are, therefore, Zapatistas.
As long as there is at least one, one, one Zapatista in any corner of the planet, we will resist in rebellion, that is, we will fight. See it there friends and enemies. And those who are neither one thing nor another.
Just for now.

i'm really sorry about spnblr, sending love (and as a non american your nov 5th post resonated!)
Thank you, thank you, it means a lot!!!!!!!!!!!! To be honest, I expected blowback on my "the November 5th 2020 hysterical site meltdown was at its heart about the stressful political times and not the supernatural fandom" post, and I knew what I was walking into-- I mean, there's really nothing more Iconically Superwholock than dogpiling on a random person for their opinions on fandom stuff! I have been getting far more agreement than pushback, for the record! And it's honestly very worthwhile/funny/even heartbreaking reading through the comments, and remembering the wild political terror, despair, horror, and exhilaration that day involved. Someone reminded me that the Covid vaccines hadn't even been released yet-- we were still in the phase where we feared there might never be publicly available vaccines, and we would just all have to wait our turns to die! Remember that? Another person compared November 5th to the way you often laugh hysterically after a near-death experience; after barely surviving a car crash, suddenly the smallest things can be very funny. I do think the Frivolous Fandom News everyone latched onto on November 5th had to be a Big Fandom Ship with a wide reach that had lots of nostalgic value and a reputation as an iconic Tumblr Thing(tm), because that's the core of what makes it so funny. But again, it could've been Johnlock becoming canon-- it's not really about the specific fandom. (I also think some people are reading that original post uncharitably XD. I said it could have been any frivolous inane fandom news, yeah, but I also did say that it had to be something with a comparable level of Reach--which to me means a similar level of 'dashboard osmosis'/reputation as a tumblr ship/nostalgic value/etc. Yes, things would have looked different if it had been another fandom with comparable reach, but still. The reason I didn't go into depth about that angle was because I think people overemphasize the fandom side of it already, and I didn't want to make another post on that haha.)
But even the pushback I'm getting from Supernatural fans is so far just very entertaining to me. It's very "Potterheads, grab your wands!" ("Supernatural fans, grab your wayward sons?" ) As someone who's also been on the other end of genuinely vicious hateful bigoted threatening dogpiles, this is really nothing so far. It's a bunch of people with ''221BintheTardiswithCastiel" URLS bopping me on the head with an empty cardboard paper towel roll for daring to Remember the Fifth of November as I actually experienced it XD.

Thousands of hospital appointments have been cancelled because of Queen Elizabeth II's funeral on 19 September, which has been declared a bank holiday.
Several NHS trusts have urged all "non-urgent procedures and appointments" to be postponed, including replacement surgeries, eye surgery, maternity checks and cancer treatments, according to the independent global media platform openDemocracy.
Several patients waiting months for their surgery had their appointment cancelled due to "unforeseen circumstances".
Doctors at one of the London hospitals were told the day of the state funeral would be treated as a bank holiday "so please go ahead and start rescheduling patients".
However, COVID-19 vaccination services and emergency appointments would reportedly continue.
The Queen died at Balmoral, Scotland, on 8 September, aged 96, after serving for 70 years as Britain’s head of the state — the longest-reigning monarch in the country’s history. The British government announced that the day of her funeral will be marked as a national bank holiday.
A text message from the NHS informed a pregnant woman that due to “unforeseen circumstances” her appointment has been cancelled and a new date “will be rescheduled shortly.”
When she tried to reschedule her appointment, she was placed on hold for hours, according to openDemocracy.
“I’m really disappointed,” she said.
“Yes, it’s a routine scan, but that’s another week or two until I’m seen and wondering whether my baby is healthy – which means quite a lot of anxiety, sitting and waiting,” she said.
Bedfordshire Hospitals Foundation Trust told patients on Monday evening; “Following the announcement of the plans for the late Her Majesty The Queen’s state funeral on Monday 19 September 2022, some non-urgent planned care appointments/procedures across Bedfordshire Hospitals will be postponed. We will contact all relevant patients if their appointment or procedure is to be re-scheduled.”
The Liverpool Women’s Hospital has warned patients that there will be changes on the day of the Queen’s funeral.
“We understand patients with appointments on 19.09.22 will be awaiting updates in light of the Queen’s funeral and national holiday announcement,” a spokesperson for the hospital said in a statement.
“The Trust will be continuing with clinical activity but some changes to appointments may occur, please wait to be contacted directly.”
In a letter signed by Ursula Montgomery, the director of primary care of NHS England, general practitioners were told they would contractually be allowed to close for their core services. But it added that local health boards would need to “urgently work to ensure sufficient out-of-hours services capacity is in place.”
The cancellations come at a time when a record high of nearly 6.8 million people were waiting to start treatment at the end of July.
Of those waiting for NHS treatment following a referral, 377,689 patients had waited more than 52 weeks in July, and 2,885 patients had waited more than 104 weeks.

2023 Recap
Tagged by @norashelley — thank you! Finally getting around to this even though 2023 already seems like it was a thousand years ago. If @missanthropicprinciple or anyone else who sees this wants to do it, please do!
I’m only including new-to-me things although I did revisit old favorites in almost every category.
Top Films:
Marty (1955)
RRR (2022)
All That Jazz (1979)
Nomadland (2020)

Oppenheimer (2023)
Maestro (2023)
Kiss of the Spider Woman (1985)
The Fabelmans (2022)
The Ox-Bow Incident (1946)
Top TV Series:
I didn’t keep track of my TV viewing the way I did movies, so I feel like I’m probably forgetting something here. A lot of the stuff I watched was disappointing, but I really liked:
Only Murders in the Building
Poker Face
Loki
Top Books:
I read almost 70 books last year and unfortunately most of them were fine but not blow-my-socks-off amazing. I usually read primarily fiction but I read a lot of good non-fiction this year.

A Prayer for Owen Meany (John Irving)
Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell (Susanna Clarke)
How Far the Light Reaches: A Life in Ten Sea Creatures (Sabrina Imbler)
King: A Life (Jonathan Eig)
Favorite Song:
Although there were quite a few new songs that caught my ear this year, for this category I’m going to list songs that I put on repeat at different points this year, even though they are old favorites. I’m sure I’m forgetting some because I mostly do this while I’m driving.
Never Too Much (Luther Vandross)
Sparks (Rocky Votolato)
God Only Knows (The Beach Boys)
Your Love is Killing Me (Sharon Van Etten)
Bottle Up and Explode! (Elliott Smith)
The Light and the Sound (Rocky Votolato)
Favorite Quote:
I’m not really sure what to put for this, but 2023 started with my husband and I both getting COVID (very mild cases, thankfully — thank you, vaccine) and toward the end of the year he was hospitalized for a week with FLESH-EATING DISEASE (he is 100% fine now), so I will say that the “I lived bitch” meme was referenced a lot in this household throughout the year.

How To Socialize A Puppy
Tumblr media
The first four months of a puppy’s life are crucial for their learning and development, which is why proper socialization at an early age is so important. Puppy socialization consists of gradually introducing your pup to other dogs, people, and places so they can better acclimate to life around them. It’s the key to a confident, well-behaved dog!
Not to mention, stressful experiences at a young age can negatively impact your dog’s behavior, making them nervous, scared, or even aggressive—so take it one paw at a time! Read on to learn how to socialize a puppy.
Tumblr media
Step #1: Ensure Your Pup is Vaccinated
Before your puppy can be around other dogs, they should be fully vaccinated to avoid illness. In fact, it’s a good idea to before your newest family member even arrives home! A typical puppy vaccination schedule begins at about six weeks of age and continues every three to four weeks until all shots are received. Vaccinations are then given annually, or as you and your veterinarian decide.  
Core vaccines for dogs prevent canine parvovirus, distemper, canine hepatitis, and rabies. Because they prepare the body to fight off possible contagious disease, these immunizations are considered vital. Non-core vaccines are given based on risk of exposure (such as where you live). Common non-core vaccines exist for Bordetella, canine influenza, leptospirosis, and Lyme disease. Your veterinarian can help determine which non-core vaccinations are necessary.  
Tumblr media
Step #2: Introduce Them to People
Although your puppy should not meet other dogs until they’re fully vaccinated, they can be introduced to humans in the meantime!
The more friendly people your dog meets, the more comfortable they will be meeting new faces down the road. It is best for your puppy to socialize in a controlled environment, such as a familiar home or fenced-in yard. Also, make sure everyone who interacts with your pup knows how to do so in a positive manner. It is especially important to establish basic rules before introducing your new dog to children.  
Tumblr media
Step #3: Introduce Them to Other Dogs After Vaccinations
Finally! Puppies can be around other dogs once they’ve received their vaccinations. It is crucial for your pup to socialize with different dogs so they learn how to get along with others. Dogs who do not socialize as puppies sometimes have a tough time “speaking dog” due to fear or aggression problems. To keep the experience positive, only let your puppy interact with familiar, non-aggressive dogs.
You should be especially mindful when encountering unfamiliar dogs at the veterinary office. After all, some dogs may be visiting due to an illness. When visiting the vet, carry your puppy into the office and keep them in your lap or a crate.
Tumblr media
Step #4: Play Puppy Socialization Games
Puppy socialization games are a great way to teach your furry friend how rewarding it can feel to approach new people and be handled. Giving treats as encouragement during puppy training helps foster progress; just remember to check feeding guidelines to ensure you don’t over-treat!  
If you’re in a group, one socialization game option is “Pass the Puppy.” Here’s how to play:
Give each person a small amount of training treats.
The first person picks up the puppy and properly holds them, supporting their rear end.
Each time the puppy allows the person to touch a paw, an ear, or their tail, the pup gets a treat.
The puppy is passed to the next person and the same routine is repeated.
Another game to play with your puppy involves everyone sitting in a circle. Place your furry friend in the middle, then:
The first person calls the puppy to “come” while holding out a small training treat.
Once the puppy comes toward them, the first person gives the puppy their treat plus plenty of praise and affection.
Someone else in the circle goes next and repeats the process.
When it comes to puppy socialization, many pet parents don’t know where to begin. Fur-tunately, by following our tips on how to socialize a puppy, your newest companion will be ready to take on the world in no time!

The text refers to Germany, but the conditions were actually the same in almost all western countries.
About the Dictatorship of Scientists
»
On June 16, 2023, the doctor Christian Haffner caused a sensation: After a year-long legal dispute with the Federal Chancellery, he successfully fought for access to the minutes of the so-called Corona Expert Council of the German Federal Government on the basis of the Freedom of Information Act. The committee met from December 2021 to April 2023 with the utmost confidentiality. It was made up of the Who's Who of media-known protagonists of the Corona period, such as Christian Drosten [inventor of the non-functioning corona detection test], Alena Buyx, Viola Priesemann, Lothar Wieler or Hendrik Streeck [panic-spreading virologists]. Health Minister Karl Lauterbach [German version of Fauci] regularly attended the circle; Justice Minister Marco Buschmann was a guest.
Suspicious: The Corona Expert Council accompanied the government's internal opinion-forming process on its draft law for general compulsory vaccination, which was finally rejected in the Bundestag on April 7, 2022. The freed protocols show: The expert council had suggested to the federal government both the general obligation to vaccinate and the continuation of corona measures in autumn 2022 - even though the committee was actually aware that the vaccination does not protect against transmission, that the population does not want Corona measures any longer, and that Omicron was on the rise. The explosive documents give a shattering glimpse into the cohesive worldview of "experts" who are willing to put their scientific ideology ahead of the well-being of the citizens, utterly heedless of social and economic issues.
«
If it had been up to a caste of virologists and scientific minions, there would have been corona measures and compulsory vaccinations until winter 2022/23, although there were every reason against it. The star virologists trapped in their own worldview couldn't react differently than hol on their own lies despite all contradictions. Furthermore, these scientific priests didn't want to lose the importance, power, that society gave them in the wake of the corona "pandemic". Ultimately, they have all benefited economically from the general panic by making profit with every test carried out and every vaccination administered. It was the modern scientific version of the sale of indulgences.
Climate protection is just a continuation of the corona hysteria
The current debates on climate protection are proceeding in exactly the same way! It is no longer questioned whether the assumptions that humans are responsible for "climate change" are correct. Anyone who doesn't believe their dogma is immediately considered a "denier of science", "right-wing populist", "conspiracy theorist" or something else defamed.
Other opinions aren't be tolerated, despite all justified doubts and contradictions. Rather, a caste of "climate researchers" vie for government funding, with whoever shouts the loudest getting the money. That's why panicking and showing yourself to be particularly important is part of the "scientific" core business. The fact that there are also thousands of reputable climate researchers worldwide who reject the CO2 theory and do not blame humans as the cause for climatic changes that have always taken place is completely concealed. These renegade scientists are excluded like heretics and receive no media attention; just like doctors who did not share the corona hysteria at the time and only spoke of flu were ignored or burned as witches by the mainstream media.

Hello, I’m the same pro choice anon who made the bodily autonomy argument! Couple of things to address actually,
“Personhood is not a philosophical concept”
It actually is and you kinda admitted yourself in your argument. It’s a legal concept. And if you want to be consistent in that argument, you would also have to admit that if a fetus has personhood ( which is what you are arguing it has ) then that would also mean a single-celled human zygote would have a right to sue in court, have a right to own and inherit property ect. Having a right to own or inherit property not just after birth but since conception, which would require a probate of the zygote's estate if it failed to implant in the mother's uterine lining and was passed out with the menses?And would then require a funeral, and a proper burial? If the law suddenly just defined an unborn human as a "person” that would be the case. But anyways, that’s not the main core of my argument so let’s move on.
“People who believed personhood could be granted, didn’t grant it to slaves and Jews.”
Okay, first of all. I was dreading you would make this infamous argument that pro lifers love to make, I don’t think you want to bring up slavery or the holocaust in your argument. Not only is it incredibly disingenuous but in doing so, you have to take in the fact that these slaves were autonomous beings before they were forcing them into slavery. In fact, they had to take away their autonomy in order to make them slaves. To compare slaves, fully autonomous people, to a fetus who doesn’t have its own autonomy, no agency , not even a fully developed body yet inside of the womb of the autonomous being is not the route I think you want to take. And then the other question is, who’s autonomy is the one being invaded in? The pregnant person was there first. The pregnant person is the one with its own autonomy. The pregnant person is the one sustaining its own homeostasis, not the fetus who is only taking from that body. I really don’t think you want to compare something that has caused so much generational trauma to the medical procedure of removing a non sentient fetus.
If we are going to compare a slave to anyone in this conversation, it would be the pregnant person who’s bodily resources are being taken away without their consent ( With the addition that slave owners forced slaves to give birth as well, pregnant enslaved women were more costly to buyers. )
“Also, it's very important to know that the fetus is not infringing on the mother merely by existing. It's existing exactly as it's supposed to.”
That my friend, is a naturalistic fallacy. To claim that something is good just because it’s “natural” . The claim of what is/ought to be. To try and define values in terms of natural properties is simply a fallacious argument and illogical. For example, “Breastfeeding is the natural way to feed children, therefore mothers ought to breastfeed and not use baby formula.” Or “ Vaccines are unnatural therefore they are bad for you” or “ Human females have the capacity to give birth therefore all women should be obligated to have children.”
Also you simply can’t consent to a biological process, the chance of getting pregnant is still there no matter what precautions you use. That biological process can still occur even in S/A cases. Unless you want to enforce celibacy which is odd and a weird way of saying you’d also wish to criminalize sex.
“Some babies are born very early, like before24 weeks, which is when a fetus is considered viable.If a baby is born at 20-22 weeks they are not considered viable?”
If it’s viable at 20-22 weeks then it’s viable. If that baby that was born is alive and capable of living outside the womb without the mother then no, it should not be killed because it now has its own bodily autonomy. It is no longer non-viable.
When you justify violating the rights of the fetus because they aren't viable, are you claiming that viability is when a person has rights and is no longer to kill?
I’m claiming that you have be viable in order to have those bodily autonomy rights in the first place. How can a fetus that can’t survive outside a womb and without the mother’s body have its own bodily autonomy when it’s directly infringing on her bodily autonomy? How can you have those rights when you are directly dependent of another person’s body who already has those rights that you are infringing upon.
“You are not killing a person by not donating an organ. You are killing a person by performing an abortion.”
Well, the action of not donating an organ to the person who is dying and that you caused to be in that state is undeniably killing them. But you are correct, it’s not an unlawful killing. Which is what my point is, a pregnant woman denying her bodily autonomy to a non-viable fetus is not a unlawful killing. How is denying your bodily organ sustain the life a person you put in a critical state not similar or the same as you denying to give up your bodily organs to sustain the life of a fetus? Please explain that further.
You made a claim saying that the law already infringes on our bodily autonomy with the use of seat belts , masks and ect.
That’s not what bodily autonomy rights are, bodily autonomy are when nobody has a right over your bodily organs and nobody has a right to use your body in order to sustain their own life. So yea, bodily autonomy rights TRUMPS over the right to life and they always have. No other human life has ever had the right to use another person’s body for their direct survival. Regardless of if they die or not as a result.
Also don’t really want to dive into your entire excuse for the foster care system and healthcare system part right now , I’ll send another ask replying to that maybe since this is already long enough.
Thank you.
"It [personhood] actually is [a philosophical concept] and you kinda admitted yourself in your argument. It’s a legal concept."
I actually didn't though? I said the definition of person is human and fetuses are human beings from conception. Personhood is not a legal concept. There is a legal concept of personhood for dealing with matters of law, but it is not the definitive concept of personhood that we use to determine who is a person and who is not.
It is your biology that determines whether or not you are a person. The word "person" may not be a scientific classification, but it is absolutely a word we use to describe human beings. Every human being is a person. Name one whose not.
Also, I think it's very dangerous to believe personhood is a philosophical concept, especially when you are going to use it as a reason to kill human beings who you philosophically don't acknowledge as persons.
"And if you want to be consistent in that argument, you would also have to admit that if a fetus has personhood ( which is what you are arguing it has ) then that would also mean a single-celled human zygote would have a right to sue in court..."
I mean no I wouldn't because whether or not you are a person is a biological fact that is woven into your genes, not whatever the law defines it as. The law can be wrong.
And, also, I don't really have an inherent problem with a single celled human zygote having all those rights even if they can't appreciate or exercise them lol. But if your belief is they aren't persons because they can't exercise all the rights people have, then you must also be consistent. Do you assert that a two day old newborn baby has the right to sue in court, have a right to own and inherit property, etc. Do we need to probate the estate of the baby (which isn't required in every state) if it dies before leaving the hospital? And if we don't do that does that mean that baby isn't a person?
I just think it's very misguided to decide who is a person based on what the law says about it and what legal procedures are done and not on the fact that they are biologically human beings, and thus, a person.
"Okay, first of all. I was dreading you would make this infamous argument that pro lifers love to make, I don’t think you want to bring up slavery or the holocaust in your argument."
Oh I absolutely do want to bring those up. You're the one who doesn't want me to bring them up. The arguments you make for abortion are the same ones made for slavery and the holocaust and I understand you don't like that being pointed out but I'm not going to refrain from doing so just because it makes you uncomfortable. Even though I've seen pro-lifers bring it up a lot, I've yet to see a pro-choicer make a good argument for why it's not the same so I'm going to do that until I get one.
Besides, you brought up the infamous organ donation argument that pro-choicers love to make so it's only fair.
"Not only is it incredibly disingenuous but in doing so, you have to take in the fact that these slaves were autonomous beings before they were forcing them into slavery."
It's not disingenuous. I actually 100% believe they are the same argument and you're advocating for killing people with the exact same reasoning that slavers and the Nazis used. Scientifically, we know the unborn are human beings. There's no debate about it in science yet you are creating arbitrary standards of what it means to be a human being that have no scientific basis whatsoever in order to kill people, just like was done in slavery and the holocaust. They just chose different arbitrary standards than you have.
So, are you asserting right now, that it is autonomy that makes one a human being? Babies are not autonomous for months after being born. Is it ok to kill them?
"In fact, they had to take away their autonomy in order to make them slaves."
Kind of like you're taking away all rights from the unborn baby, including the right to life and bodily autonomy, by killing it.
But here is the reason I bring up the slave/holocaust argument. It is revealing a big contradiction in your belief system that you do not seem to realize. You asserted that personhood is a legal and philosophical concept. Is this true or is there a universal truth about what constitutes a person outside of law? It can't be both. If what you said at the beginning of your ask is correct, and personhood is a philosophical concept decided by law then you have to believe that slaves and jews were not, in fact, people, because the law said they were not. If you believe they were people, which you seem to, then you are saying personhood is not a philosophical and legal concept and personhood is a determinable truth that is not philosophical or decided by law. So which is it?
"To compare slaves, fully autonomous people, to a fetus who doesn’t have its own autonomy, no agency , not even a fully developed body yet inside of the womb of the autonomous being is not the route I think you want to take."
It absolutely is the route I want to take because I know that being fully autonomous, having agency or being fully developed is not what makes someone a human person. I don't think you want to take the route that you must have those things to be a person because every condition you list can also be applied to someone outside the womb and if you remain consistent with the conditions you list for why the fetus isn't a person then you are saying there are human beings who are living outside the womb that you also don't consider to be people.
People aren't fully autonomous right after being born. At what point are people fully autonomous and thus are not ok to kill or force into slavery anymore?
Babies don't have agency right after being born. When do people get agency and thus are not ok to kill or force into slavery anymore?
People aren't fully developed until years after being born. In fact, your brain isn't fully developed until the age of 25. So is it ok to kill and enslave people under 25?
Those are the conditions you listed for why the fetus is less of a person so if you're consistent with that belief then you must also believe that a three month old is less of a person than an 18 year old. And an 18 year old is less of a person than a 25 year old.
Is that the route you want to take?
And then the other question is, who’s autonomy is the one being invaded in? The pregnant person was there first. The pregnant person is the one with its own autonomy. The pregnant person is the one sustaining its own homeostasis, not the fetus who is only taking from that body. I really don’t think you want to compare something that has caused so much generational trauma to the medical procedure of removing a non sentient fetus.
If you believe autonomy is a human right then you have that right by the nature of being human, not by being born. A woman's autonomy isn't being invaded by pregnancy. If she's pregnant, she chose to engage in an act that the sole biological function of is reproduction. Your rights aren't being violated because you chose to have sex and it ended a way you didn't want.
I really don't think you want to be saying it's ok to kill babies just because they aren't autonomous. Bodily autonomy is not license to kill. If exercising your bodily autonomy requires you to kill an innocent person, you don't have the right to do that.
Bodily autonomy has limitations and those limitations are present when another person is going to be harmed or killed. And that's what going on in an abortion. An innocent person is being intentionally killed.
If we are going to compare a slave to anyone in this conversation, it would be the pregnant person who’s bodily resources are being taken away without their consent ( With the addition that slave owners forced slaves to give birth as well, pregnant enslaved women were more costly to buyers. )
No, a pregnant woman is in no way comparable to a slave and it's absurd to say so. It's also minimizing what slavery is and very disrespectful to actual victims of slavery. Getting pregnant and giving birth is not slavery in any way, shape or form. No one says a woman must get pregnant. In fact, if a woman doesn't want a child I'm all for her not having one and choosing not to get pregnant. But it's not slavery to say you can't kill a baby you already have. And I don't think you want to be comparing slavery to not being able to kill your baby.
"That my friend, is a naturalistic fallacy. To claim that something is good just because it’s “natural",...."
Well my argument wasn't "it's natural and therefore good" so you're going to need to make sure you understand my argument before you try to refute it.
My argument was it's not infringing on her by existing. Natural biological process are not "infringing" on people's rights. The woman chose to risk starting the process of reproduction and reproduction is not infringing on the woman by happening. That was my argument.
If you invite someone into your home they aren't infringing on your rights by accepting the invitation.
"Also you simply can’t consent to a biological process, the chance of getting pregnant is still there no matter what precautions you use. That biological process can still occur even in S/A cases. Unless you want to enforce celibacy which is odd and a weird way of saying you’d also wish to criminalize sex."
Precisely. Which is why this is not a matter of consent. It's a biological process that can happen whether you want it to or not. If you don't want to go through the process and you are going to kill the baby if you get pregnant it would be better for you to abstain from sex altogether until you're ready to go through the process. I don't want to enforce celibacy but I do think people who are going to kill their baby if they get pregnant shouldn't be having sex. At all.
My core point here is once you are pregnant reproduction has happened. Now the baby exists. It is a human being, a person, from the moment of conception and if you abort the pregnancy at any point you are killing a human being and you have failed to give any example where bodily autonomy lets you intentionally kill an innocent person.
It's not a matter of consent. It's a matter of protecting human life. The baby does not need continuous consent to exist. You don't have the right to kill them.
"If it’s viable at 20-22 weeks then it’s viable. If that baby that was born is alive and capable of living outside the womb without the mother then no, it should not be killed because it now has its own bodily autonomy. It is no longer non-viable."
It's not viable. That's the whole point. Even after it's born at that age it's still not viable. They usually don't even survive after being born that young. So if a baby can be born at that age and we can't kill them, what's the difference when they are in the womb at that age? It's exactly the same level of viability both inside and outside the womb.
I think you need to define what you mean by viable. And where was it decided you only have human rights if you're viable?
"I’m claiming that you have be viable in order to have those bodily autonomy rights in the first place. How can a fetus that can’t survive outside a womb and without the mother’s body have its own bodily autonomy when it’s directly infringing on her bodily autonomy? How can you have those rights when you are directly dependent of another person’s body who already has those rights that you are infringing upon."
And, where, exactly, did you get the idea that you have to be viable to have autonomy rights? Is bodily autonomy a human right or not? Because if it's is human right then you have it by nature of being a human.
The fetus is not infringing on her bodily autonomy, as I've already explained and you've failed to prove otherwise. You just keep claiming it's an infringement but haven't refuted any of my arguments that explain how it's not an infringement.The fetus is a human being and has the same rights that the mother has.
The fetus has the right to life. And bodily autonomy is not the right to kill innocent people.
"Well, the action of not donating an organ to the person who is dying and that you caused to be in that state is undeniably killing them. But you are correct, it’s not an unlawful killing. Which is what my point is, a pregnant woman denying her bodily autonomy to a non-viable fetus is not a unlawful killing. How is denying your bodily organ sustain the life a person you put in a critical state not similar or the same as you denying to give up your bodily organs to sustain the life of a fetus? Please explain that further."
You are not causing them to be in that state. If they need an organ they are already in that state. You are not saving their life. And that's completely different than killing someone. It's not a "lawful killing" because you are not killing people if you don't donate an organ. They are dying a natural death. We don't have the responsibility of saving people who are dying, but we do have the responsibility of not intentionally killing people who would continue to live without our interference.
If you are the one who put the person in the critical state that made them need the organ, then you are not required to donate the organ but you will be charged with murder if they die if you literally caused them to be in that position. So you don't have to save their life, but if they die you will be held responsible.
And abortion is not simply a matter of refusing to donate an organ. Do you know what must be done to prevent the baby from using your body? You have to rip its body apart limb by limb. Induce a heart attack. Crush its skull. These are very violent acts that would be considered crimes at any point outside of the womb and it's very disingenuous of you to compare it to simply not donating an organ. You do see how those are different, do you not?
Can you commit those same kind of acts on a person who you refuse to donate an organ to?
"You made a claim saying that the law already infringes on our bodily autonomy with the use of seat belts , masks and ect.
That’s not what bodily autonomy rights are, bodily autonomy are when nobody has a right over your bodily organs and nobody has a right to use your body in order to sustain their own life. So yea, bodily autonomy rights TRUMPS over the right to life and they always have. No other human life has ever had the right to use another person’s body for their direct survival. Regardless of if they die or not as a result."
I would really like to know where you're getting all your definitions for the assertions you make because it seems like you're making them up or just taking parts of them that you feel you can use to support abortion and discarding the parts that don't fit your belief system.
Bodily autonomy includes the right to govern your organs and using your body to sustain others, but that's not all it covers. Bodily autonomy is simply the right to govern ones own body. That's it. Not just about what you do with your organs or if someone needs assistance to live but in all matters that involve anything about your body inside or out of it.
So you think bodily autonomy is applicable if you want to kill an innocent person you created through a very specific act but it's not applicable if the government is telling you what to wear? You see how that makes no sense, don't you? If it applies in such severe cases and allows you to kill a person, then surely it covers less severe situations like if you don't want to walk outside with a cloth over your face when that hurts absolutely no one.
Skin is an organ. So if bodily autonomy is the right over your bodily organs than that has to include what you choose to put on your skin. So why is it different? Why doesn't bodily autonomy apply to other areas when you're being told what to do with your body?
Bodily autonomy does not trump the right to life and you have not given a single case where it does. The right to life is not the right not to die. The right to life is the right to live your life as you see fit until you die a natural death or forfeit that right based on your own choices. Someone else does not have the right to intentionally end your life if they don't consent to your existence. You don't get to say someone can't use your organs or body once they are already using it. Like if you donate an organ and then after the procedure is done and the person is using it you can't change your mind and take it back. Your rights end where another persons' begin.
If bodily autonomy trumps the right to life then that will apply in multiple other situations outside the womb. So give me a real life example of when we are allowed to intentionally end the life of another innocent, even perfectly healthy person, to exercise bodily autonomy. And organ donation doesn't count because you're not killing anyone by not donating an organ. I'm not talking about not making the decision to save an already dying person. I'm talking about a time when you're legally allowed to actively and intentionally end the life of another innocent human being who would have continued to live without your interference.

Things Parents Should Consider Before Selecting a CBSE School
CBSE schools have proliferated in both urban and semi-urban areas throughout India. This increase in growth comes from the curriculum's tried and tested formula that consistently places innovation and conceptual understanding at the forefront of its mission. We must understand that boards of education have the same long-term goal of providing the best educational standards, but their methodologies are what separate them.
Now we will see all those points that can make your search for the Best CBSE School in India easier. Let's discuss all the points that should be considered of paramount importance when it comes to finalizing a good CBSE school for your child.
Why CBSE (Central Board of Secondary Education)?
CBSE is one of the best curricula in India and one of the most prestigious education councils, recognized by the National Council for Research and Training in Education (NCERT). It is a popular choice among students who want to study traditional engineering or medicine.
CBSE offers a curriculum that has been thoroughly researched and meets international standards. It is widely accepted and recognized throughout the world. The cumulative approach of the CBSE curriculum helps students remember concepts and build new ideas. The two core subjects in the CBSE curriculum that help students prepare for competitive exams are mathematics and science.
CBSE patterns are followed by competitive entrance exams in India such as IIT-JEE, PMT, NDA, CDS, and other civil and defense services. Therefore, if your child decides to study abroad at any time in the future, the CBSE curriculum will not be a barrier to further education.
5 Things to Look for When Selecting a Good CBSE School
1. Managing Small Transitions is Important in a School
The turning point for students begins when they enter grade 9. CBSE schools have to administer subject enrichment activities for each student on a mandatory basis. Each CBSE school has to do projects that help students to facilitate learning. If you want to choose the right school for your child, make your selection based on the guidance provided to students.
2. Is the School's Emotional Foundation Strong?
It is the parent's responsibility to be very vigilant once their child reaches sixth grade. After grade 6, only the students begin to form their academic careers and other things. Before that, teachers provide other ways for students to learn, draw, play mind games and improve communication. After a student enters the sixth standard, attention should be shifted to academic development, and the student also experiences various psychological changes and struggles with them the most. It becomes the responsibility of parents and teachers to take care of them at all times and help them overcome them. Choosing a school with a strong emotional foundation can help your child manage her emotions accurately.
3. Your Child Comes First
Remember that your child always comes first. CBSE schools in India will always have an interesting and impressive infrastructure, perhaps well-recognized and high performing, but it is always better to take care of your child. The best way to understand if your child will thrive in a CBSE meeting is to introduce them to the elementary CBSE curriculum when they are young and assess how they relate to that literature.
4. Security 
Security is the main thing that parents expect from schools in India. Before enrolling your child in a CBSE school, it is important to assess the security measures available at the school. Check the sanitization and safety protocol. Ask about the staff vaccination protocol and policy. Ask the school if they do adequate background checks on teaching and non-teaching staff.
5. Visit
When you find a school that seems like a great fit for your child, it's smart to visit to see the study halls and meet the staff and staff. While at school, you should be allowed to visit with the principal, teachers, and other tutors to find out what the assumptions are for parent input, how staff and staff connect with students, and what the learning climate is like. general. 
Affordability and security
6. Affordability and Security
The emolument follows an excellent infrastructure and an established educational curriculum. An unduly expensive fee structure is a delimiter for those seeking a quality education. At PGPS, we strive to get an education equal to that of boarding schools in India with an affordable approach.
In addition to imparting knowledge, we also make sure to keep our students safe and secure on school grounds. And for that, we have installed security cameras inside the building facilities and all the security policies that a school must have.
