My best friend said after the SAVE act passes and married women can't vote, the likely plan for single women is to make life fiscally unbearable via taxes to force people to pair off into marriage to survive. Ex. The newly proposed budget removes the ability for single moms to file head of household (image of post by Gabrielle Perry MPH)

Thanks to @uppitynegress.bsky.social for this!
Image of Facebook post By uppity negress redux that says "Were you aware that when ppl show up being aggressive and wanting to argue, you can literally say no?" With an image of a Facebook comment exchange below where uppity negress says "I know this is an unpopular opinion but I have a soft spot for Gypsy Rose and Britney Spears... and really all complex childhood abuse victims trying to navigate life free of their abusers." Then printsandpinots replies "Gypsy Rose is a murderer. Do you have that same energy for the Menendez Bros. They claim they were abused as well?" And uppity negress concludes with "You want to argue. I decline your invitation. Have a good day."

Image of Facebook post by Trauma Geek - Trauma and Neurodiversity Education With the following text: Under-stimulation contributes to burnout. Burnout is not just about over-stimulation. It's about missing the right kind of stimulation, the kind that brings us to coherence and flow. Burnout is about not having access to pleasure, joy, safe connection, and rest. Burnout comes from not having co-regulation, not having a safe home space, not having a network of people we can call on for help, not being able to fully express ourselves, not having time in nature, not having time for hobbies or art or play. Burnout comes from not having any of the numerous things that mammals need as social beings - clean air, reliable food sources, soundscapes without mechanical noise, natural water, singing, dancing, community, etc. Not having what we need is just as stressful to the body as being over-stimulated. Not having what we need causes our nervous system to send the same danger signals and activate the same stress responses as when we encounter a significant threat in our environment. Not having what we need is perceived as a significant threat to the body. Burnout recovery is not ONLY about avoiding too much stimulation and resting/sleeping as much as possible. It's also about finding healthy and helpful stimulation to replace aversive stimulation. The kinds of stimulation that tell us we are safe at an Autonomic level can be incredibly difficult to access in the modern world. Burnout is 100% not your fault. It's a collective problem that requires a collective solution. Burnout is often caused by the wrong kind of stimulation. Healing is often about finding the right kinds of stimulation for our nervous system to perceive deep safety. I want to work towards creating a world where the right kind of stimulation is more easily accessible by all.
