With every picture shared of the protest (parade), the ease and likelihood of the state randomly abducting you off the street for not liking what they see is increased exponentially.
You are not protecting people. You are performing and its dangerous.

Yesterday, someone said to me "and they wonder why none of us are having kids these days. They raised too many eldest daughters who raised their siblings. Patriarchy did this" and it's like, yeah. Yeah.

I'm in another total deconstruction and unlearning phase/mood today.
This is the place where I feel most lonely, scared, and insecure.
It's also the space where I've come closest to knowing the feeling of true liberation.

Therapists: the only thing that differs from the human needs of our clients and the community is that our clients pay us.
When we set boundaries around care for clients and not our community, we are centering capitalism and its values.
Why?
And- why do we think we can police those that pay us?

Also, therapists- why do you think it has become a thing to "take off/put on" our therapist hats in situations where the human experience is the same, but the relationship is different?
What I mean is why are we setting boundaries to "protect our time" when someone who needs us is not paying us?

Therapists: what happened to us during our training that convinced us that the folks we work with are somehow different than other human experiences?
Why is it as soon as someone is dubbed "client" they are suddenly only viewed through a clinical (pathologizing) lens?

When we say this country is rooted in racism, white supremacy, patriarchy, and cisheteronormativity, we *must* understand that EVERYTHING we do is sprouted from that foundation.
Everything.
We must unlearn everything.
And I'm going to try to show my therapist colleagues where we fail here.

1. This morning, California Governor said he was in "complete alignment" with anti-LGBTQ+ hate-influencer Charlie Kirk of TPUSA on transgender sports.
He also conceded on trans inmates and gender affirming care for youth.
It's so much worse than being reported.
