two recent reads that are very appropriate for this moment (this may or may not be why i gave them both 5 stars but they both made me Feel things and also stare at the wall for a while so what can i do)

A thread of a collection of therapist directories that have niches & specialties as alternatives to the larger, problematic ones (In no particular order-feel free to add to this if you know of one I've missed!) 🧵 #TherapistSky #MentalHealth

therapists going to therapy this week has felt like that meme about venmoing the same $20 back and forth amongst your friends into eternity.... like, you're having the exact same bad time i'm having, but it's my turn to have a worse time so i can be ready to help other people through theirs tomorrow

The flawed and outdated Cochrane review on exercise in ME/CFS still hasn't been withdrawn, and continues to harm patients.

Reminder: Masks protect against all types of airborne viruses. If another pandemic starts, masks will be a key first line of defense, especially as we won't have a vaccine right away.

Folks are shocked at the increase in racist, misogynist, ableist beliefs. Especially where “your body my choice” is concerned. You know who’s not shocked? Disabled people. Those who’ve been fighting for Covid mitigations. The masks came off years ago - Tuesday’s election just made it louder:

one of the reasons bluesky works differently is because early users waged a successful fight to get the devs to prioritize safety features to protect communities at risk as a result bluesky now has a suite of controls that i think are unmatched on social media here’s the list, lmk what i’ve missed

about me for now - i’m a neurodivergent-affirming, disability justice-oriented, relational therapist. covid-consciousness informs my work, along with other tangential experiences/interests/parts of me - entertainment industry, music, fandom/gaming culture, queer theory, birding, reading, etc etc

I'm not asking healthcare professionals to watch TV or keep up with the news. I'm asking them to read the most influential medical periodical in the world? Don't psychologise #LongCovid patients. #NeuroCovid www.nejm.org/doi/full/10....

Reasons to wear an n95: 1) COVID never ended 2) Unmitigated pandemics are a tool used to harm marginalized people & you won’t participate 3) CDC is tweeting about avian flu symptoms to watch for 4) It’s a real bad time to risk illness & disability 5) It offends MAGA Get/give mask mutual aid:
