As well as shutting down abortion clinics, Republican states are trying to essentially outlaw abortion pills: on Friday, Missouri, Kansas and Idaho renewed a legal push to drastically reduce access to mifepristone.Amid this hellscape, help may be at hand from a somewhat unlikely source: Satan. Or, to be more accurate – and since the devil is in the details – the…

My partner and I just moved into our first apartment together. He is 31, and he has never lived alone before. He lived with his parents. I’m afraid that I’ll have to mother him and do all the household work, even though he comes [home] from work before me and has more free time, since he’s a teacher and basically free all summer. How do I get him to help with work around the flat without nagging him, and how can we avoid becoming just roommates?Eleanor says: Here’s some good news: you didn’t say he’s already not doing his share.…
