US tech giants allying with European far-right to strip back EU rules Amid rising EU-US tensions, a new report has accused Big Tech of courting far-right MEPs to weaken the EU's regulatory power on AI and data.

"Big Tech companies such as Google, Microsoft and Meta increased their meetings with far-right groups in the European Parliament ahead of the Commission's push last year, revealed a new analysis by non-profit organisations Corporate Europe Observatory (CEO) and LobbyControl."

A meme contrasting the map of Europe with Europe during Eurovision. The Eurovision version comically adds Australia to the European continent, highlighting Australia's involvement in Eurovision.

A classic - it's that time of the year. 🇪🇺🪩🕺💃

The future isn’t promised. It’s shaped by those who dare to care, speak, and act.
And we do.
And we will.

You mean "CBT is the gold standard"?😁 Joking a bit, true, CBT has significantly more research than other modalities.

Yes, of course, the good old interpretation "CBT is an evidence-based approach, while other approaches are not".😁

While trauma explains a great deal, it is not the only factor. Human experiences are complex, and not every experience is attributable to trauma. Overusing the term diminishes the experiences of those who really experienced trauma and/or have PTSD.

Thanks for sharing! Interesting to see that CBT would be recommended for "simple, isolated" cases, and for patients where there is "defective introspection ability". Interesting choice of words by professionals, as well. Sounds judgy.

Thank you for sharing! I understand your concerns. Interestingly, I didn't even think about that; I focused only on the fact that these people live in an authoritarian regime and fight against oppression. I see these protests as a fight for survival, hence health concerns probably become secondary.

Thanks for sharing, interesting results! When you say that therapy modality got "recommended" or "selected", can you please clarify by whom? Unfortunately I cannot access full text.😅 Thank you!

You're absolutely right about the lack of references undermining its scientific claims. Nevertheless, it has valid points about rising trends in therapeutic culture.

The Cult of Gabor Maté: Trauma, Science, and the Rise of Therapeutic Politics Gabor Maté has built an empire on a simple premise: trauma explains everything.

Excellent reading about the cult of Gabor Mate and #trauma. "Western societies have increasingly medicalized suffering, replacing concepts like personal responsibility and agency with narratives of victimhood."

Today I'm honoring myself by doing nothing in particular, best day ever.😁 Also, honoring the memory and showing love to the women in my family - my mom, aunts and my belated grandmas. #IWD2025

On this #InternationalWomensDay, we honor the strength, resilience, and courage of all women - cis and trans - everywhere. It's a reminder that our #mentalhealth matters, and our voices are powerful. Strength in unity! We rise! 💪🏻💙 #IWD2025 #TherapistSky #PsySciSky

They are so lovely! Thank you for sharing and for great alt text.💙

Does anyone have any good news to share?

Text within image: Humanitarian aid should never be used as a tool of war. "Israel is once again blocking an entire population from receiving aid, using it as a bargaining chip. This is unacceptable, outrageous, and will have devastating consequences," says MSF’s Caroline Seguin.

BREAKING: MSF strongly denounces Israel’s announcement to block aid into Gaza.

Humanitarian aid should never be used as a tool of war. Regardless of negotiations between warring parties, people in Gaza still need an immediate and massive scale-up of humanitarian supplies.

Word of the day: Fremdschämen. That's a beautiful German word for the deep, secondhand embarrassment you feel when someone humiliates themselves, especially when they have no clue. And yes, that’s exactly how I felt watching those two clown bullies yesterday. #Cringe #PsySciSky #TherapistSky

True and this is a wonderfully optimistic perspective. However, on the other hand, they weren't as good as they could have been. Ideally, there would be zero Nazis in the Parliament. But here we are, with the 20%.

Leider zu spät. Der Stress war zu groß, bzw. die Kuchen-Intervention war sehr erfolgreich.😋

Ok, but then I won't be able to know in real-time who else is joining. 😁

Sending you a virtual hug. 💕

An important point to keep in mind.
