Patreon bonus strip for September 2022 — JOYCE’S PHARMACIST
on September 26, 2022 at 1:18 pmPosted In: Blog
Every month at the Dumbing of Age Patreon there’s two new exclusive bonus strips — one that patrons get to vote on, and another that’s my choice! This month, patrons voted in higher numbers than they ever have for JOYCE’S PHARMACIST. You can read this month’s new bonus strip and the backlog of more than a hundred previous bonus strips at the Dumbing of Age Patreon!
Also, if you pledge up to $5 or more per month, you can read tomorrow’s strip a full day-and-five-minutes early, every night like clockwork!
Apropos of Joyce’s fears about picking up birth control pills at the campus pharmacy, had she lived in Idaho, such fears would be entirely justified:

Indiana may not be too far behind. 🙁

If anyone needs me, I’ll be in the angry dome.
My local grocery store has the condoms, lube, and some other stuff under lock and key, so you have to ask to get access, but the big chains in town don’t have any restrictions. btw Idaho of course.
Rather snarky roundup of the full implications of the policy here:

All these states banning “abortion from the moment of conception” rather than after implantation, are also de facto banning IUDs, the morning-after pill, and progesterone-based birth control pills that don’t fully prevent ovulation.
…I guess that’s one way to keep the “quiver full”!
Was she tagged as Joyce’s pharmacist or did she get a name?
I assume her name is Joyce.
