Today’s Neurospicy Group Therapy topic (as an interning therapist 😚🫶🏻): Relationships that align with your values instead of your fears.

What behaviors in fear-aligning relationships are/were indicative of a need not being met? What is that need? What do value-aligning relationships look like?

Now this I would watch
Since we’re in a golden age of new Star Wars tv shows, I’ll again pitch “David Attenborough style nature documentaries but of fictional Star Wars creatures.”

No empire. No Jedi. Like, what the Jedi would watch on tv to relax after a stressful mission.

At most, if we are being generous, that "dire wolf" announcement amounts to something like this.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

Measles high infection rate is the reason we have not yet been able to eradicate it. That rate means you need a very high vaccination rate to prevent outbreaks. It is possible, but not with current levels of institutional distrust.
The average person with the flu gives it to around 1.4 people. The average person with measles gives it to between 12 and 18 people.

“We can look to venom, surprisingly, to aid us biomedically," says Dr. Barrett Klein. "For example, bee venom therapy has been used for arthritis, arthralgia, Parkinson’s, ALS, multiple sclerosis, and other conditions.”

Re: ICE in Riverside County, Inland Empire, California

Just had this sent to me from a clinic in the area. Reminded me of the video I saw recently from Sheriff Chad Bianco updating on what RivCo Sheriff’s Office (RCSO) will do (youtu.be/7najc2EBaLo?...).

of all the many terrible things that seem to be afflicting the public, the prevalence of defeatist mindsets with zero capacity for creative problem solving (or indeed the unwillingness to even *imagine* possible solutions to problems) might be the thing which freaks me out most.
Electricity generation has always felt like an impossible engineering problem. Demand has to match supply - yet we managed that with ancient, all-analog equipment for over a century.

Now we have so many more tools at our disposal. Why should this be hard?
