    Oh god, the backlog of rape kits in this country pisses me off deep to my core.

      Only 30 states even bother to report on it. The other 20 are like “meh just throw it in the garbage”

      Just ONE “pro-woman” company could step forward and cover this. Catholic Church, this is loose change for them. Oprah. A dozen CEOs.

      (there are like 20K kits in backlog officially, so let’s say it’s 2 MILLION in backlog for sake of argument. At $100 a kit (being very generous) that would be like $200 million dollars)

      Alright, I’m going to shut this compartment of my brain off for now, beep boop, rage error
