this mind over matter anti-med spiel is ableist as fuck. it both comes from a place of privilege & denies the reality of folks who need - yes, need - medication in order to survive, function in an ableist society, and otherwise improve their life via medication
look I’m a HIPAA maximalist until it comes to the psychotropic indulgences of the commander in chief. and now I gotta know if there are other records like this. i need to know how to homebrew the Biden boof & kamala cadence
what are the best noided-Luddite books that elaborate on the invasive specifics of extant technology? ie DATA & GOLIATH or THEY KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU
looking for specifics like the quoted tweet. also, any NSA, DIA pdfs/archives appreciated
oblig this blew up, sadly i got nothing to promote rn other than obligatory free Palestine, end Israel, support & protect your local trans friends, get involved in local organizing, tell your friends you love them while you can, & stay noided. keep cool, but care
@johnyelizar
attitude & self-talk etc can be an important part of treatment, but suggesting that folks don’t need medication and instead can just will oneself into healing is both incredibly condescending & the sort of thinking that leads to people fucking dying unnecessarily
it is real mfering domestic GLADIO hours rn & clearly the tension is raising, both under guidance of warring agencies & as an organic response to deteriorating and/or abysmal circumstances. but if you think mass shootings are solely the latter, you’re not paying attention

as a b-b-b-b-bonus, I also got this reaction from, appropriately, an extremely reactionary 2 genders type who followed me on IG when I posted this this am

End of an era. Cannot thank
@JimmyFalunGong
for all his work & all of the wonderful, insightful guests he’s platformed. Gonna miss your mellifluous voice once the backlog dries up, but to the next chapter & better things. Stay noided out there, friends

🤓 it’s akshully an ‘indifferent gonad’ at first, sharing just because this is someone i never forgot while studying child dev & it also doubles as a nice insult
sorry but if you think there’s any sort of security or privacy on your internet connected devices made over the last twenty years you simply have not paid any attention to the illustrious interdependence of technology on defense, military, & alphabet agencies’ R&D

love learning about something else entirely, discovering something, and suddenly understanding a the Mountain Goats reference. gotta be one of my favorite genders
i 100% unironically believe in panspermia & that life is fairly ubiquitous throughout the universe, did not originate on earth, and that fungi are at the heart of it. what better to be the carrier of life across the cosmos than that which feeds on death?
FUNGUS IN SPACE!!! 🍄🚀
Equal parts cosmic horror and nature being metal, let's talk about the lichen that grew on the OUTSIDE of the International Space Station!
Get your tea and curl up, because I PROMISE you wanna hear about these fungal cosmonauts 🧑🚀

I’m glad that a presidential candidate is finally unveiling bold new policy proposals addressing climate change to protect our most vulnerable communities, the *checks notes* United States military
has anyone ever had kids and then channeled those emotions into something good. I can think of so many examples of artists having kids and then making something insanely bad with their feelings about this, but there has to be something good Lol
lmao my born after 9/11 coworker threw such an epic tantrum at me (bc he thought the patches on my jacket were too political — the upside down pink triangle over my heart ‘crosses into holocaust’, ???? Zoomers not beating dumb af allegations) I get to take the day off. love it
had a dream last night about being initiated into an underground cult that believed that GRAVITY’S RAINBOW contained all of the knowledge of the universe, and damned if i wasn’t mad to wake up. i believe this cult knows the truth
so 15 seconds into the start of my big spiel my mum goes ‘can i interject — can i tell you what i think [your big news] is? I think you wanna be a woman.”
anyway it went great, she’s happy for me and said she thinks she’s kinda known for a while
assuming my stomach settles, nominally coming out to my mom today. i still feel like shit though so we may do tomorrow but i do just wanna get it over with
i think im going to come out as a trans woman to my mom tomorrow. i told my brother i was transitioning when it happens & she’s the last family member im close with. she might not understand but i don’t think she’d stop loving me. at least i hope so

this is an obvious ploy to avoid hate crime charges as well as to weaponize our own identity to intentionally rub salt in our wounds, don’t fall for it
