I’m going to say the quiet part out loud. Many self promoting experts in mental health have precious little experience in actually working as therapists and wouldn’t know what to do in the chair. People deserve both research and experience. We owe them that work.

Anytime a man is honest about how patriarchy is ruining or has ruined their lives, I’m going to share it.

If anyone can think of a good reason to have an 858 billion dollar budget for the military and no healthcare for all, a $7.25 an hour minimum wage, poverty and homelessness, I'd sure like to hear what the benefits are.

I think one of the biggest myths about relationships today is that they don’t take work, in the form of communication, boundaries, self-advocacy, directness, negotiation, flexibility, vulnerability, etc. Healthy, functional rships aren’t something we can just buy off a shelf.

Anger is a natural response to boundary violations. Boundaries are the protective lines we draw around our health and vitality. Never feeling angry (at others or the self) may indicate a lack of boundaries/self-respect.

Twitter is a hellsite that also houses a vital time-stamped chronology of state corruption. It shows who know what and when, and gives some insight into why. Chronology is an enemy of autocracy. Altering Twitter is altering history, and that's the appeal to autocratic minds.
