In 2025, when most people have a computer in the palms of their hands that works as both a phone and an inbox, texting and emailing the exact same information at the exact same time is both annoying, redundant, and unnecessary. Please make it stop.

Today’s Reparenting Lesson is:
You’re allowed to dirty more dishes, especially when it means you’re being kind to yourself. (e.g. using utensils rather than burning yourself by handling hot food)

What would *you* find more interesting if a medical history venue started putting out more media related to their work?
1) Short deep dives into different medical history topics.
2) Behind the scenes 'maker' stuff (e.g. the prop autopsy cadaver needs repair).
3) Something else or combo of above.

Dearest Hivemind,
Do any of you have experience with qigong and could possibly recommend a decent printed book with illustrations of the movements?
All the gratitude in advance!
Ever hopeful

A word … a diagnosis … full of hope and slow, hard work to come.

YouTube now adding auto-dubbing and not allowing viewers the option to toggle it off if desired is beyond rubbish.
Please allow me to enjoy foreign language creators, listen to THEIR voices, and follow along with subtitles!

I don’t believe in kismet or fate but the fact that my therapist emailed me today to tell me I’m now at the top of her waitlist - after the struggles I’ve had the last week or so - I’m beyond grateful to the universe or whatever.

One of the hardest parts about learning to pace is getting excited about something and then remembering you shouldn’t hyperfocus on it and that it may even take you a week+ to complete a couple hour’s worth of attention to it.
