But yes, it really seems like a lot are too arrogant and conceded to care.

That was of course, before I left it because of discrimination issues.

Iโ€™m telling you, there are plenty of people who do. Most people donโ€™t do this right now because they know that people are losing their rights. At least for my own state. I live in Maryland. But you know I didnโ€™t get enough schooling in my therapy program on how to handle this.

@shelleybwoke.bsky.social I really do not know how anyone thinks they can just do this to people.

I do not understand it. I really donโ€™t. We are told in school to follow the code of ethics as therapy students and here is someone *licensed* not following their AMA code of ethics.

I feel like their office lied to me, Iโ€™ve been gaslit through and through. And Iโ€™ve got hard evidence of this. Like I know you believe me but like I am fed up with the healthcare systems doing this shit.

@its-lex-actually.bsky.social this is the updated experience of what Iโ€™ve been dealing with.

I really really hope that no one else ever has to deal with this gaslighting crap. Itโ€™s exhausting.

What the fuck kind of โ€œprofessionalโ€ leaves for 3 weeks, telling her place of employment that she may not come back at all, and then 3 weeks later come to find that sheโ€™s back and didnโ€™t apologize, nothing, nada. IMAGINE THAT.

03.02.2026 19:09 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Then IMAGINE this! And this is the WILD PART. IMAGINE that your current psychiatrist tells you that sheโ€™s back there working again. They said she left because of an โ€œemergencyโ€.

03.02.2026 19:09 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Now imagine their office ghosting and stonewalling you for 3 weeks over this situation after being referred to someone you donโ€™t know and didnโ€™t have a choice over choosing.

03.02.2026 19:09 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

They did not provide referrals like they said they would in a voicemail. They even said they would send a text message and an email and they did not.

03.02.2026 19:09 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Imagine having a psychiatrist clinically abandon you. To make matters worse, imagine the office of where this person worked providing really shitty shitty communication.

Lots of regular degular, never-done-an-activism folks have been activated in recent months and are working alongside a bunch of seasoned, die-hard, been-tired-for-ten-years-or-more organizers, and you don't know all of those stories bc most people are moving with a bit of discretion in these times.

For some people, attention is the whole thing. That's the real issue at the heart of the current discourse.

There are a ton of risks that come with being highly visible, especially in these times โ€”ย and this is doubly true for people living in the margins. Anyone who tells you otherwise is clueless and actively endangering people with misinformation.

Feds Identify โ€œLeader of Antifaโ€ The list they're creating says so, anyway

๐Ÿšจ Documents leaked to me reveal a federal watchlist of American protesters suspected of being Antifa - including its supposed leader.

One Department of Homeland Security document says a 29-year-old resident of Portland "is the leader of Antifa":

Professional athletes are being advised not to leave the hotel or go anywhere without their passports while visiting Minnesota.

This is not a country that can safely host international events like the World Cup.

Boycotting is not even a political question anymore. It is a basic issue of safety.

I think itโ€™s obvious that the Me Too movement and the trial of Harvey Weinstein sparked an extreme McCarthyist response from a billionaire class that moved to buy and exert influence over media and democratic institutions, and I think that this manifested in several quite clear ways in Britain.

DOJ Released Unredacted Nude Images in Epstein Files A note from investigators in the files said some images Epstein had were "POSSIBLE CSAM."

no better summation of America's unrepentant rape culture than that one of the biggest stories of the last decade is about the abuse of women and girls and every single stakeholder working on it couldn't give less of a shit about the actual victims of the story

@shelleybwoke.bsky.social he is being such a hypocrite.

But Wes DOES not have the lived experience. He has zero concept. And because of that comfort, he wants to sacrifice my community. Shame on him. SHAME ON HIM.

DDA gives help to people that actually need it that could be homeless otherwise. Wes you said you would help people out of being homeless. Yet this is *not* that promise. You want to help contribute to apartheid that my community is already facing. What a HYPOCRITE.

You know maybe if this country would stop punishing disabled people for not being able to find employment when they face discrimination, that would be nice. Also, not everyone who is disabled can work. But Wes Moore thinks he knows everything about my community. Heโ€™s not autistic.

02.02.2026 14:44 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Well, if you would actually start defending your state community by defending trans people openly, protecting immigrants without fake promises, and would stop making cuts to DDA so you donโ€™t harm autistic people, then maybe I could actually take you seriously for once.

Itโ€™s not my fault or anybody elseโ€™s fault that you cannot get money. Do not punish disabled people for that. That is not their fault.

@govwesmoore.bsky.social should stop focusing on making cuts to DDA. You really wanna target autistic people but will prioritize vaccines but not help for my community? You want to take $150 million away from people who need it? Youโ€™re just as bad as Trump.

โ€˜Backing down isnโ€™t an optionโ€™: Minnesota ICE shootings mobilize Americans to join ICE observer groups The killings of Minneapolis residents Renee Good and Alex Pretti have inspired people across the US to document federal agentsโ€™ activities in their communities

for over 3 weeks, I've spoken to ICE watchers and organizers across the country: first right after Renee Good's killing โ€” then 2 weeks into my reporting, Alex Pretti was killed.

ICE watchers are being detained and harassed โ€” but they're also stopping ICE abductions and inspiring others to join them
