  • VOTE IN THE PRIMARIES Such a small amount of people decide who ends up on the ballot. And an overwhelming majority of incumbents get reelected due to primaries.

    Please please please vote! Even if you like the person in the lead, consider voting for someone who might not win but will send a message to the party that their policies need to be folded into the party platform, etc.

  • Sure hope there's going to be education available alongside the psychedelics for sale acquisition. It'll help people learn about set and setting, etc., but most importantly, education and prep will mean less bad trips and less idiots running their mouths to the anti-drug crowd.

  • Ok but therapy doesn't have to be a "crisis of the week" situation. A person and their therapist should be working together toward a set of goals that aim to address their needs (e.g. getting enough self-esteem, confidence, new perspectives, etc. to treat the cause (e.g. quit abusive job, leave a partner, make boundaries with crazy family, etc..). Good therapists identify when therapy is drifting outside of effective modalities and guide the sessions back to the overall goals.

    Signed, a person who is in "crisis of the week" therapy but is also terrible at confrontation and is working toward bringing it up.

  • The fucking nerve. That's the only avenue left to fight dumb laws or entities not following the not-yet-dumb laws. It's not like shame or political action has had any effect.

    Not to mention that the 1% and the corporations they run have been using "lawfare" for-fucking-ever to out-spend and threaten their opponents.

  • Can't wait for them to remember that trans men exist. There's going to be a lot of shocked Pikachu Republicans when men who look like men show up in "women's spaces" because they're being forced to.

    Wish I could be a fly on the wall to see that fucking awesome scenario.

    But seriously, trans folks, you don't deserve this bullshit and I hate that your existence is the controversy of the moment for Republicans. Be well and take care of yourselves <3.

  • Because until recently, we didn't teach kids that making a mistake or changing one's mind is ok and a sign of learning and growth. You know, that same social-emotional learning that became a conservative boogeyman.

    So a bunch of people grew up to be assholes who feel less masculine or powerful if they admit they were wrong or consider new information. Sprinkle in the narcissists, and behold, the cognitive dissonance olympics.
