WTF now my Instagram was reinstated? Yep, the AI bots got it wrong. All I ever post is my cats, music I like and mental health stuff!

Got suspended today too. I think it’s because I commented in Derrick Van Ordens IG: Stephen Miller is a Facist…

Instagram permanently disabled my account that I had since 2013.

Most likely because I’m a targeted demographic for the current administration and I’m relatively vocal about what I do and do not support/accept any longer in my life.

The current administration is gaslighting the American people.

Charlie Kirk once said, "I can't stand the word empathy, actually. I think empathy is a made -up, new age term that β€” it does a lot of damage."

Here I am, damaged, but still alive.

The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024.

Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.

The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year.

Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M

See the problem?

It is Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month.

To the men who think they aren’t the problem in the relationship, if it’s unhealthy, then you are part of it.

If you love that someone, celebrate this month schedule your very first therapy appointment.

There is strength in vulnerability.

No Longer Yielding to Disrespectful Men (or anyone, really…) When I left my marriage of 7 years, it was the moment I chose myself, and chose to no longer be a punching bag for the emotional wreckage. What I didn’t realize then was it was just the first…

Cis straight (often white) men are the sole reason for the male loneliness epidemic. Be better or be lonely.

I’ve been manifesting the movement with her and Bernie since I voted for him to be president. I’m so delighted it’s playing out in real time right now. I have hope in them and especially her unyielding willingness to try her best to do the right thing. She is a force I stand behind.

My supervisor always seems annoyed by the higher ups every time he β€œhas to talk to me” about my attendance if I have had to call out more than once in a 2-3 month timespan. Ugh

Getting mansplained about my personal experience with vaccines, modern medicine, science and chronic kidney disease is a real trip.

Yes please tell me how to survive it as if I didn’t know or have done so for nearly 10 years. I had Covid once and the flu really bad twice since my diagnosis. Hmm πŸ€”

The Russian roulette of the chronically ill body of a 42 year old femme non-binary human; is it my autoimmune disease, side effects of immunotherapy treatment, or symptoms of perimenopause?

I don’t know 🀷🏼, you tell me, body!

Woke up to nausea and achy joints, is it the norovirus or just my IBD?

RFK Jr. will have to take my SSRI away from my cold dead hands. As I was diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder at 16 years old and have tried life off of my meds and it did not go well. I prefer not to have my suicidal ideation back in my brain. Thanks.
