A Bernese Mountain Dog lays upside down on a carpet in front of a dog bed. The lower half of her body is facing left, legs splayed. Her top half is twisted in the opposite direction, facing right, front legs pointing out in front of her as if in a Superman flying pose.

Grad psych courses should come with a warning label. "Abandon all hope, ye who enter here. From this day forth, you will never be able to watch true crime shows with pop psychologists the same way." I mean, I'm still going to watch them. I'm an addict. Just with more grumbling about lack of depth.

Trans youth deserve to live as their true selves in school, on sports teams, at home, and everywhere else.

A Bernese Mountain Dog named Zoey lies on an ornamental area carpet in front of a couch, half laying on her back, front paws wrapped around a giant plushie of an octopus. The plushie's tentacles and laying over Zoey's face, covering her eyes, and she appears to be licking one of the appendages.

In the battle of Zoey vs. Giant Plushie Octopus, I think the octopus might be winning...

Ugh. I just found out while in seminar that Riley Gaines will be speaking at my university tonight. I get the 1st Amendment and state uni and all, but when someone's whole platform is hate, whether of an individual or a group, I don't see why we should have to give them the space.

Today we're reading about bipolar. Well, okay, mommy is somewhere under there trying to wake up and I'm reading about bipolar. Okay, okay, fine! Mommy is somewhere under there trying to wake up and I'm trying to figure out how to order treats before she's awake enough to stop me. Shh!

Some people in power are calling it a hate America rally, but I can think of few things so American as standing up for yourself and your fellow humans, no matter their identity or their status, and fighting for what you believe in. So truly, thank you all and stay safe!

While I can't be at the No Kings protest today due to crippling social anxiety (believe me, I tried but started panicking this morning), I want to thank everyone going so very much for standing up for all of us and for our country. It's not always perfect, and it needs a lot of work, but it's ours!

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

androphilic homosexual males, throughout the section on gender dysphoria. Luckily we're not covering that chapter, but the fact that this garbage is still being pushed in grad school texts shows how many in our field still pathologize TGNC identities even after changes to the DSM.

It truly is sad how prevalent this thinking still is. I'm taking a Psychopathology seminar and the text we're using, Adult Psychopathology and Diagnosis 8th ed., updated in 2018, still pushes Blanchard and his debunked theories, such as autogynephilia and transgender individuals being

I'm so proud of my baby boy! He's been trying to lay on his back without instantly rolling back over for 2 1/2 years now (he's very uncoordinated) and he finally did it! Only for about a minute, but he did it! πŸΆπŸ’– #Swissy
