- Why do more than 65% of abuse victims return to their abuser?

Refusing an intimacy coordinator is not a flex. It should be looked at like refusing a stunt coordinator for action scenes: it is reckless, uninformed, and disrespectful of the wellbeing and safety of your entire film crew.

You're part of a team, its not an individual's decision.
Jennifer Lawrence: I felt really safe with Robert Pattinson Jennifer Lawrence says she didn’t need an intimacy coordinator on the set of “Die My Love.”
On the Las Culturistas podcast, the 35‑year‑old Oscar winner explained that she felt safe working with co‑star Robert Pattinson. ?

my mother's sister = my Aunt
my mother's cousin who is my godmother = my Aunt
my mother's two best friends who helped raise me = my Aunties

Americans desperately need cultural competence. Most Indigenous cultures use versions of Aunt & Uncle to show respect for our caregivers...

this recent flare-up has been especially bad, but I'm celebrating today's small victories: I managed to go for a walk, got a really nice spiced apple chai from my local place, and made an egg sandwich (plus a fried egg for my service dog)

my sighted partner alerted me that the doctor I saw earlier this week was incredibly inaccurate, making up data in his notes. if my partner hadn't checked I would not have known, and be denied the referral I need.

jfc doctors frequently abuse their power & their patients.

one of the most harmful things our culture encourages is controlling other people. make them serve us, make them change themselves, make them do what we want.

control has no place in healthy relationships. this rise in violence and fascism is rooted in desire for control.

Talked with my partner this morning about the murder of Celeste Rivas. After multiple horrified silences & breath work we started brainstorming ways to protect kids' online privacy, to teach them young to defend themselves against predation and inappropriate pressure from adults.

Let's make friends (and lose followers I don't want)!

Trans rights are human rights.
Abortion is healthcare.
There are zero ethical billionaires.
UBI would improve the mental health and quality of life of most people on Earth.
Donald Trump is a liar, cheater, pedophile & rapist.

I'm just a trauma therapist, standing in front of the entire internet, begging you to be allies to the Disabled community by removing ableist slurs (in$ane, cr4zy) from your vocabulary and stop misusing mental health terminology (psychotic, sociopath) when talking about fascism.

a morning news host advocates ending the lives of homeless people and then there's two mass shootings at encampments with 12 injured. a country singer releases a lynching anthem and Trey Reed's beaten body is found hanging.

these are not isolated events. its Stochastic Terrorism

there's no way to help people who don't want help. don't pour your energy into people who are committed to staying in ignorance.

Having people who love you show up and help you really is life-changing. I just powered through a couple of frustrating phone calls back-to-back while my partner groomed the dog and washed our dishes. I would've put all of that off for days otherwise!

marginalized people are expressing relief that one of our many, many oppressors can't harm us anymore.

we're going to express our emotions however we feel them; tone-policing victims or calling for empathy for the oppressor's family is bootlicking which you can unlearn.
