Hi new followers! My feed is a jumble of queer / trans activism, AuDHD streams of thought, focus on my special interest in plurality/ neurodivergence/ cptsd & supporting non pathology of mental health through boosting lived experience perspectives. All sprinkled w/ a confetti of animal photos.

I sorted out the hodge podge on topics from lecture notes I expanded on & put them in the correct areas for chapters for my book. While I'm not where I wanted to be at this timeline, I'm actually doing OK
But goddamn I wish I'd just made an outline for each chapter like a normal person

Oof... that 7am call to record my lecture was not ideal. Plus, I really have a hard time just talking to the little green light and no audience and no spontaneous questions. But, did do it! And included the cultural humility section that discusses the McLean Grand Rounds

Trump is freaking out about not getting an award that is designed to celebrate everything that he works to destroy

Katie Keech @keechmft.bsky.social · 2d

But they do want cultural a cultural competency section for the lecture, so now there's a section on the McLean issue.

I have to record a two hour lecture for the conference with conference people at 7am tomorrow. It's ungodly. All the time slots to record were just 7am on different days. Ugh. Like... I work on drag queen time.

And, we, unlike singlets, will move back to plurality even after fusion at different times in our lives. We simply will not have the experience of the singlet neurotype ever because of the collective life experience of our difference.

Katie Keech @keechmft.bsky.social · 2d

Many singlet therapists equate fusion with health because it causes us to blend with neuronormativity. But they don't see that fusion is secondary to health and, we will never match the experience of being a singlet because we've always been wired differently even if it fuses.

Katie Keech @keechmft.bsky.social · 2d

I think i figured out why establishment is saying our lived experience clinical collective is against integration. I & many of us have been saying a drive to fusion is like ABA therapy for plurals. What I'm saying is, this is a treatment plan that is often not client driven not client led.

I guess I'm glad I was never a Swiftie.... oof, that album.

Pam Bondi said they'd nabbed the girlfriend of the founder of Antifa. I mean, if they *did* grab
Benedetto Croce's wife Adele Rossi or his mistress Angelina Zampanelli... I mean, they've gotta be around 160 years old and it's totally badass they are still protesting.

Please put a good thought out for our Saint Dolly Parton who was Sainted by the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence a few months ago. She isn't doing great today.

Scott Aicher aka Scootch passed from a blood clot in his 50's today. He was the artist for many a San Pedro punk band & Peanut Records. I have some phenomenal portraits by him including Mikey Mouse on a skateboard he drew for me when I was 4 years old. I'm going to miss him.

Then I had the vegetarian burger while my partner had the regular burger. I do eat meat, but burgers have always been a texture /flavor nightmare for me. I never liked McDonald's except the earlier version of chicken nuggets & the fries. Super excited they have a veggie burger. It was also amazing.

Trying the cereal shake at HyphyBurger ... the cinnamon toast crunch option. 10/10. Almost went with Lucky Charms.

Never Forget that Trump’s openly stated opinion on Disabled People is that we “should just die”, including his own family.

Cheshire Cat ᓚᘏᗢ, @autismsupsoc.bsky.social · Sep 1

For those wondering the President’s opinion on disabled people when picking RFK Jr … Trump is on the record that we should “just die”

This literally includes his own family … who wrote about Trump’s desire to see us dead.

Told Me Disabled
Americans Like My Son
'Should Just Die'

Fred C. Trump Ill and his wife, Lisa, welcomed their son William in 1999; as nephew to former President Donald Trump, Fred Trump advocated for disabled Americans in White House meetings.

So dangerous and dumb for a photo op

Part 6 of RAMCOA and White Supremacy where I start to analyze the film #GetOut through this lens and it's quite obvious the white family in the film is a RAMCOA family, whether the film maker intended this or not

The thing is, they were using this to strong arm democrats into complying. But now they aren't even allowing democrats to negotiate. They've all gone home already. And I don't think they've fully grasped how bad this is actually going to be for them in the end.

“We can do things during the shutdown that are irreversible that are bad for them," President Trump said, threatening to slash key federal programs if the government shuts down.

“We can do things during the shutdown that are irreversible that are bad for them … cutting things that they like, cutting programs that they like,” Trump said.

Never been on tinder. Dating apps are one technology items I never explored. I, weirdly, did think OK cupid was mostly a quiz site when it first came out and then completely forgot to delete my profile for years.

I'm not the kind of person to swipe first. But if you swipe at me or my friends I'll be the last one standing. Even if it takes me a very very long time.

I was really hoping the rapture was going to occur today as it would be cool to have some peace and quiet on earth and maybe we could advance some useful projects. But alas.....
