And, somehow, other very similar modalities like Rosen and Somatic Experiencing are not caught up in this regulatory sand trap. How?

Paying $9 a square foot and bullied when I refused to pay for CAMs in my lease or code fixes ahead of possible inspection.

$3-15k and months to a year and a half of public hearings to get a use permit in a new office IF an owner is willing to have a special use tenant.

CAMTC is not working. 1/

I haven't given money to Amazon in a looooooooong time.

It's not hard. It's only slightly less easy.

As I am looking at publishing my first book under my Liminal Topographies, LLC imprint, this weighs on me. Where to distribute and what to avoid?

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

One of the best people I have ever known transitioned this week.

He reached inside of me, grabbed a hold of what he saw, and never let go no matter how dark the clouds were around me.

Never Lose Trust In Someone Ever Again

In life, one of the most devastating experiences is to feel like someone close to you has betrayed you. You may think that you can’t trust them anymore and have to cut them out of your life completely...

My world, my Earth is a ruin. A planet spoiled by the human species. We multiplied and fought and gobbled until there was nothing left, and then we died. We controlled neither appetite nor violence; we did not adapt. We destroyed ourselves. But we destroyed the world first.

I was being treated by a psychiatrist in Oakland who has many degrees in his wall, yes. But, upon inspection one was a certificate of achievement for appearing on the Dr. Oz show. Noped the F out of there fast.

Good on ya.

Psychedelics alter neurovascular coupling, which means we need to critically re-evaluate fMRI findings of acute psychedelic effects

Psychedelic 5-HT2A receptor agonism alters neurovascular coupling and differentially affects neuronal and hemodynamic measures of brain function - Nature Neuroscience

Padawer-Curry et al. show that the hallucinogenic 5-HT2A receptor agonist DOI alters neurovascular coupling in mice, with implications for the interpretation of human fMRI studies of psychedelics.

Ditching steaming for so many reasons.

PBS is playing the Highwayman concert. Willie, Wayland, Chris, and Johnny.

Also saw a Ken Burns doc about the Statue of Liberty and a deep dive into... Kissenger.

Yet, I still can't sleep and love the baseball sass.

This week has a few community organizing projects.

Get some pet food to the shelter. With more cash needed to feed people, budget for animals may not exist.

Another is a very loud analog rapid response method for communities.

Working with community & my direct aid fund to fill needs.

While the feds continue to play stupid games, SNAP recipients are set to lose food aid for the next month. In the Bay Area, a growing number of restaurants are stepping up to help, and we're maintaining the list. Share with anyone who needs it. www.coyotemedia.org/these-bay-ar...

These Bay Area Restaurants Are Offering Free Food to SNAP Recipients

Amid a government shutdown that will cut off aid for 42 million Americans, local food scene folks plan to pick up the slack.

Explain to me why “conversion therapy” is banned in 28 countries and ABA is not, when they have the same creator (O. Ivar Lovaas) and utilize similar if not identical principles, techniques, and goals (forced assimilation).

Matthew Broberg-Moffitt (any/all) @mbrobergmoffitt.bsky.social · 25d

Autism $peaks is the largest and most popular Autism organization (among allistics), who continues to be 100% in support of ABA. They have lobbyists who push ABA as the “gold standard Autism treatment.” It utilizes same practices as “conversion therapy,” which is currently banned in 28 countries.

Matthew Broberg-Moffitt (any/all) @mbrobergmoffitt.bsky.social · 25d

ABA (Applied Behavioral Analysis) is the “gold standard” of “treatment” for Autism, and was created by the person as “Conversion therapy” (see Lovaas) with similar techniques and goals. It’s torture that continues to have widespread support and acceptance.
