I want to build a world where we don't need mental health therapists or psychiatry.

As a therapist, I work to make my profession obsolete. We need to build mutual aid and community care for mental health.

Mental health care is often used to enforce the status quo, the meatgrinder of capitalism.

Kid Rock, who clearly shops at the "Tacky Meth-heads Who Like Silly Costumes" outlet, really shouldn't open his stupid mouth to talk about how other people look.

And Laura Ingraham should never open her snarling mouth to talk about anything.

Kid Rock complaining about how other people present themselves is very funny

TBH I’m much happier seeing women (or men) with blue hair and nose rings than whatever the fuck Kid Rock wears from day to day

I definitely feel that, and I wonder if the moving image will actually lose its sovereignty, if it hasn't already, as, for instance, video evidence of crimes will no longer have the weight it once did. Any video will be discreditable by calling it an AI deepfake.

Yo. She is a long-term Trump fan who celebrated his drone-striking murders of her people in speed boats in int'l waters "courageous" and "visionary." www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Nobel Peace Prize winner hailed Trump as ‘visionary’ just days before her victory

The fact she has been a major Trump fan, who indeed said that his drone-striking of speed boat enthusiasts in int'l waters was "courageous" and "visionary." She'll fit right in with war criminals like Kissinger and Obama. "Peace Prize" is now irony poisoned. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Well done media, you achieved this brilliantly, your campaign to nearly completely ignore AKL’s local elections has flowed on to its inevitable outcome. Accelerating your own irrelevance simultaneously -> www.thepost.co.nz/nz-news/3608...

I dunno, the fucking of us is already pretty bad when the president and his "health" secretary can make people believe disproven claims about autism and acetaminophen just by saying them, or that "Portland is burning" when like maybe a couple hundred people have ever gathered in protest at ICE.

The only "skill" he has is "negotiating" in situations where the power imbalance heavily favors his position and he is just a dick about it.

"Machado insisted to The Sunday Times that Trump was right to bomb the boat.

'I totally support his strategy,' Machado said. 'And I’ve said on behalf of the Venezuelan people that we are very grateful. I think it is the right thing to do. It’s courageous. It’s visionary.'" - The Independent

In Israeli prisons, hunger and torture are ever-present

Le Monde has collected the accounts of three civilians from the West Bank who were detained for months without trial or judgment and subjected to food deprivation and regular beatings. Two years after the beginning of the war against Gaza, more than 11,000 Palestinians remain incarcerated in Israel.

Yep. Alex Jones has been paving the way for a "false flag" attack that the Dems will create and exploit, so basically these goons are asking for one of their supporters to do it.

Picture how big the Hoover Dam is. An absolute unit. The Hoover Dam has a power capacity of 2 gigawatts (GW).

The solar farm that the Admin just cancelled could have produces 6.2 GW of power. That's more than 3 Hoover Dams.

SCOOP: The Bureau of Land Management says the largest solar project in Nevada — the Esmeralda 7 mega-farm — has been canceled

The news was quietly dropped via a sudden website update with no public word from any of the companies involved or a statement from the agency

Esmeralda 7 Solar Project Has Been Canceled, BLM Says

It would have delivered a gargantuan 6.2 gigawatts of power.

Not to mention the war criminals Henry Kissinger and Barack Obama who received the "peace" prize - it's so ironic poisoned as to be utterly meaningless, another opportunity for international elites to give a shiny trinket to themselves.

Bezel Vercex, a sentient lichen 🍉 @bezelvercex.bsky.social · 23h

Murdering speed boat enthusiasts in international waters is considered "visionary" by Venezuelan Nobel Laureate. One can see why I say the Peace Prize is so irony poisoned.
