Shorter weekly and a longer monthly? Something like "interesting games on my backlog" or "games I played last month". Shorter and more informational like the threads you make here sometimes. Something to keep the algo interested in you while you work on bigger stuff. Just spitballing

Recently I've noticed I keep everything in camera frame neat and tidy. Out of frame is pure chaos.

It works best when you get them to define woman first. They tend to default to "adult human female" so then you can directly ask "are 14 year olds adults?"

That's usually enough to get the gears turning for people who parrot the talking points uncritically but aren't too deep in the pipeline.

Relatable. I have massive writers block on my thesis becuse I can't bring myself to read articles with anti-trans bias right now. It's relevant to the topic but brings up a lot stuff for me.

I hope to someday have a platform big enough to help share the burden with you

I've felt a strong urge to play Wolfenstein lately for similar reasons

Bad therapists often cite the core condition of "congruence" (authenticity) as justification for misgendering. "I believe in biology so I won't collude with the clients distortion"

Essentially they weaponise therapy 101 to justify their bigotry/ignorance

For therapy centres with LGBT focus there are: Rainbow Minds, Violet Psychology, Inner Voice Inner Journey, Insight Matters, City Therapy.

All Dublin based but some have both online and low cost options

The former mostly. Haven't seen the second point in my reading so far. There might be something on how minority stress in general (outside of therapy) impacts the therapeutic work itself but not that I've come across.

I'm doing my thesis for my psychotherapy BSc atm. In that context there's research pointing towards how misgendering/deadnaming has a negative impact on therapy outcomes/the therapeutic relationship.

The fact that "are you based in the UK or Ireland" is a single check box is crazy. We're two different countries with different laws! You need to know WHICH before you can offer legal advice for people. Does she think Ireland is bound by UK law or something?

True. They just declared trans people don't exist, ended funding for tran inclusive healthcare, banned trans folk from the military, and Texas tried to make being trans a felony. Please don't minimise the danger trans folk are in right now by suggesting MAGA don't care anymore - they very much do.
