If JK Rowling herself doesn't separate her art from her transphobia, and has said she sees every Harry Potter fan as a fan of her transphobia, and uses every dollar she makes to fund transphobia, I need people to stop insisting they "separate art from artist" because it's beyond disingenuous atp

I am a little tired of being yelled at for this but apparently not tired about: heroin addiction is not RFK’s problem. He’s a sociopath. Most addicts aren’t. Honestly, walk into an NA meeting, grab the first person with a few years to be head of HHS and they’d probably do a better job than Bobby.
This is what happens when you put a privileged, 14 year heroin addict in charge of health. Duh

If I let myself go on autopilot, I'd never stop hating myself or doing things that sabotage my goals. That's what trauma conditioning does to us-- & why we have to CHOOSE compassionate self-discipline (not bullsh*t "tough love"), even (especially!) when it feels "unnatural."

You are acceptable right here, right now, exactly as you are, exactly as you feel & function right now.
That does not mean you have to love where you are, or that you can't or shouldn't work to realistically change if you choose-- it means you don't "have" to hate yourself now.

I wonder if tech creeps are gonna do what the automotive industry did when they invented the crime of jaywalking to shift the blame for safety issues onto the public
re: roblox dude's interview crashout. the thing he wants to say but can't is "at scale, kids are gonna get hurt. that is the price for scale." the thing nobody wants to say out loud is "maybe scaling to a level where harm isn't manageable is bad, and scale should be contained"

Struggling w/ stuff like budgeting, time management, or meal planning isn't evidence you can't "adult." It's often evidence you've had to McGuyver your way through life-- & if the skillset you developed doesn't map perfectly to some peoples' expectations, that's NOT a "failure."

It’s been ages since I saw a “ripped from the headlines” episode of L&O: SVU but S27E7, “False Idols”, is straight-up Gaiman/Palmer.

Distraction is absolutely a legit coping tool in realistic trauma recovery. Don't think you have to meet everything head on, full speed, at all times-- it's just real important we don't substitute constant, desperate distraction for acknowledging & processing feelings & memories.
