Therapist, yogi, paddler, cross-country skier, back country camper, thread painter, mom. Could be a stereotype of a granola but way too snarky and skeptical. Unapologetically feminist. Fuck TERFs.
Does Trump realize that if Canada was the 51st state, we would hold the most electoral college votes and have the power to set the entire political agenda?

So I found this model disassembled today. Clearly, my office mates are messing with my mind!
(Don't @ me therapist bluesky. It's just a therapy joke; I know the mind is embodied!)

Wow! I stopped paying attention to Bluesky until recently again, came back pleasantly surprised by all the follows by folks working in mental health who all seem like cool people. Looking forward to some good discussions!

Bill Clinton banned assault weapons in 1994; mass shootings dropped by 43%.

George W. Bush and the GOP let the assault weapons ban expire in 2004; mass shootings increased by 245%.

These numbers tell the whole story.

Hi there! Would love some suggestions for a magazine subscription for my 16yo goddaughter that is not focused on fashion, makeup, or chasing boys!

Growing up on the wrong side of the tracks, I used to walk by a strip club on my paper route. Once, at 3pm, the front door swung open super hard as a really drunk guy stumbled out, totally smoking me with the door. He was so shocked and felt so bad he shoved a 5$ in my paper bag.
Tell us a true story from your life that sounds made up.

Partner away, home alone w 12 yo and 10yo. Made kids agree on a movie. They settled on Life Aquatic.

Proud mom moment: in the middle of dressing my kid down for missing the school bus, the neighbour's kid called to see if my kid made it onto the bus because the bus never showed up to pick anyone up.

This morning's breakfast was eating my own words.

My trans baby kept their birth name, but has a family nickname. I keep getting certificates come home from guides in 2 versions: one with their birth name, one with their pet name.

Then I realized that, in an effort to be progressive, guides has assumed "Buck" is a chosen post transition name.

My 12 yo just said "Mom, I just discovered a thesaurus today and my life is forever changed!"

Hello friends! Therapist here. I always get snowed in with intake requests about a week after clocks go back. Remember it's normal to feel cruddy rn. Make a soothing self care plan and take care of yourself.

Also, try walking first thing in the morning to keep your circadian rhythm working for you.
