Dear Seanan, This is the day of my daughter’s first birthday. Is there an age limit for entrance into the eternal birthday? We have bagels and muffins and previously brought cupcakes as an offering.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, O TINIEST OF PRINCESSES.  YOU WERE WISE TO SEND YOUR MOTHER TO PLEAD YOUR CASE BEFORE THE BIRTHDAY.

HERE IS YOUR SEAT AT THE HIGH TABLE.  HERE IS YOUR CAKE.  HERE IS YOUR FIRST GOLD STAR TO PLACE UPON THE MURDERBOARD.  WE UNDERSTAND THAT YOU WOULD RATHER EAT IT RIGHT NOW, BUT ITS SPIRIT WILL LINGER ON UNTIL YOU ARE OLD ENOUGH TO COMMAND THE DEATHS OF THOSE WHO WOULD DEFY YOU.

WHO IS THE SMARTEST, BRAVEST, DEADLIEST OF PRINCESSES?  IT IS YOU.

WELCOME TO THE BIRTHDAY UNENDING.  HAIL TO THE TINY, DEADLY PRINCESS.

Excellent.

If contraception can be marginalized rhetorically, then it will be that much easier to make the case for restricting access. Certainly, if the right wing can frame contraception as a “lifestyle” choice, like watching porn or using sex toys, then it becomes much easier to strip away insurance coverage or federal subsidies to make contraception more affordable, all while playing dumb and pretending they’re not trying to take people’s contraception away.
