Hey Megyn Kelly,
14-year-old Eloise would like a word:
“If my voice makes you uncomfortable, good…
because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.”
Sound up! 🔥🔊

That teach a man to fish thing is so stupid and patronizing. That man needs to have a full stomach, be in ok health, and have housing to learn how to fish. And what if he has no talent for fishing but is a gifted storyteller? Also what @infieldflygrl.online said.
The concept of land ownership is the greatest evil mankind invented and should be abolished immediately.
Teaching a man to fish doesn't feed him at all if the lake is gated and the state can do violence against him for fishing.

"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

You are not "difficult" or "stubborn" or pathologically "hyper independent" for having conflicted or negative feelings about reaching out for help. You're responding to your conditioning & experiences that actually happened.
Don't let yourself be shamed for normal reflexes.

For Psychology Today, I wrote about the disability crisis in Gaza, which now has the most child amputees per capita: www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/beyo...
Gaza’s medical infrastructure has endured 697 attacks that destroyed 94% of hospitals and left 2k hospital beds for over +155k injured people.

How Structural Ableism Is Worsening the Crisis in Gaza
There is a disability crisis in Gaza, particularly among children. But their suffering too often goes overlooked.

That should tell you all you need to know about U.S. policing.

Capitalism wants us productive. Art reminds us to be present. Capitalism wants content. Art wants meaning. Capitalism isolates. Art connects. Even when made in private, even when it never leaves your notebook, art is still a way back to yourself. Above all, art connects us to the spirit of creation.

You're not "choosing" to react. You're not "choosing" anxiety or depression. Your mind & body are reflexively responding & functioning in ways they've been programmed to. Changing those patterns involves more than "choosing" differently.
