I just feel I don't for enough time to properly recover from what feels like a perpetual burnout.

It’s bullshit. They platformed him to high levels even before his polling was this high.

TheBossRoss @thebossross.bsky.social · 9h

The BBC's justification for platforming Farage beyond the actual significance of his small parliamentary party are his polls. A rather cynical explanation, for he wouldn't be where he is without the constant, uncritical appearances he's given on the BBC. It's a (literally) vicious circle.

Just looked like a doc you can trust.

Looks like a Underhive doc, the sort who'll fix you up. No questions asked.

Autistic meltdowns aren’t tantrums.

They’re the bodymind saying “I can’t hold this anymore".

They’re not moral failures.

They’re overload.

Pressure leaving the system.

You don’t need punishment.

You need safety.
