Don't besmirch Barbara Millicent Roberts' good name by calling Kristi Noem ICE Barbie

It blows my mind that people are getting bent out of shape about Mexican flags when some people in the US still proudly fly Confederate flags. Ok then, get in your time machine & go back to your own racist failure of a country. Bye bitch you won't be missed

@bsky.app GIVE US AN EDIT BUTTON FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

Omg my echolalia is so bad today because someone has a Boston accent. I wish there was a good way to explain to people that I'm not mocking their accent. I'm just stimming & most of the time, I don't even realize I'm doing it until it has come out of my mouth

Re-listening to The 13th Step because Eric Spofford was arrested 👍

Fun fact: asking your depressed friend if they're suicidal won't make them suicidal but it may make them think that you actually care about their well-being 👍 #MentalHealth

You know what's not helping my depression? Fascism

"Letting go" is a process, not a one time decision or event. Don't kick yourself for struggling with it. Grace over guilt-- we're rerouting physical nervous system connections here. Changing how we think, feel, & behave is the hardest thing humans do-- give yourself a break.

If you are speaking out in defense of ICE, you are wrong. Period.

Anyone want to write a musical that's not based on a movie or a musician's already existing catalog with me?

If you didn't watch the Tonys pre-show, you missed the announcement of the Gavin Creel Fellowships, to help struggling young actors without means on their arrival in New York City. Text GAVIN to 44321 to support.

Today's mood

Micromanagement in any relationship, personal or professional, tends to be a giant trigger for many trauma survivors-- & trying to set limits w/ micromanagement can scrape up all kinds of feelings of unworthiness & overwhelm. None of that is your fault-- or a recovery dead end.

Idk what Milly is doing today. This doesn't even look comfortable 🐶 #DogsOfBluesky #Dogs

There are some heartless and tone deaf people that exist here and it’s giving me a headache.

I can now see why I always took things "personally.” Whenever I felt a hint of embarrassment or twinge of guilt, I was flooded with shame. Shame nosed its way into every mistake; I thought taking responsibility also meant acknowledging worthlessness. We are worthy of our own forgiveness. #cptsd

Every time something awful happens, white people like to say: tHIs iS NoT aMERicA. Uh, yes, it is. Please diversify your friend circle. Then listen to our stories.

#trauma #invisiblewounds #cPTSD hypervigilance is exhausting

I hate where I am right now. I know I'll work through it and move on, but right now, I really hate it. #cptsd

"don't give them an excuse" is victim blaming darvo shit that just makes it easier for nazis to do all their nazi things, hope this helps

Resist ✊✊✊ Fuck ICE

“Tasted a little tear gas— tasted like fascism”

I'm very much not OK & I don't think there's anything that can be done about it

I really like flowers & recently discovered #BloomScrolling & it's honestly one of the best things on Bluesky

Have you got a song you consider a banger by a band or artist you otherwise aren't interested in?

🧵 If you've never had to stay in a job that you hate because you needed medical insurance, I don't want to hear your opinion on the issue. I'm poor, single, chronically ill, dealing with an ongoing mental health crisis, & am American, so this is the best option that I have right now

One thing I absolutely need you to understand is that in the United States, *police can legally lie to you.* And in most cases, a cop lying to you is NOT a defense to a criminal charge. Don't talk to cops. Get a lawyer.

An abuser's criticism is about diminishing you so they feel better about themselves. #coercivecontrol
