Sometimes you just want to take your head off and carry it around, like St. Denis, patron saint of strife and headaches. Beheaded by the Roman governor, Denis picked up his head and carried it seven miles in Paris, preaching all the while. #WyrdWednesday

Today’s #ProtestSong, which is really about protesting being in these bodies on this physical plane of existence. I know, I know… we were made for times like these & we’ve all got a role to play and whatever, but… When do I get to leave this meatsuit & become star stuff again?! youtu.be/eImjRBxi4e0

Listen y’all… I know there’s still so much stigma out there around mental health meds and even going to therapy.

But here’s the thing… NONE of us were meant to raw dog the rise of fascism in the U.S. You need meds to survive? Cool! So do I 😘

@jarodkanderson.bsky.social thought of you a bunch while hiking with my depression today.

This is where I had lunch.

The spiders taught me about patience.

Each January I recall that, once upon a time, the year began in March (which is why October means the 8th month and December means the 10th month).
It feels so much more sensible to start the year in spring;
That's when I want to consider my plans for the coming year.
Winter is for snacks and naps.

Realistic trauma recovery often involves giving ourselves more time than we think we'll need. Giving ourselves more time, space & grace to get sh*t done; to accomplish goals; to regulate. One of the few concrete truths of trauma recovery I've learned is, EVERYTHING takes longer.

The worst part about being a single parent...

...my home is too small when they're here...

...and too empty when they're gone.

Best part of being a single parent at Christmas, writing Love, Mom on the tag and not having to share credit with someone who didn't do a thing.

We say goodbye to actor, filmmaker and activist Rob Reiner.

A dedicated storyteller with sincerity that imbued his prolific work and the causes he believed in, Reiner’s heartfelt portrayal of the human condition reminds us of the power of film and its abilities to stay with us.

Safe people know how to handle hearing "no" without losing their sh*t & pivoting to emotional abuse.

No exceptions.

I feel like people who don't like candy corn don't understand how to eat it.
You're not supposed to chew.
You just swallow it with water, like a pill.

as an undiagnosed autistic youth i looked to movies and tv shows to help me navigate the world. only it turns out some of those "romantic" movies just made me more susceptible to love bombing. that and my own trauma. 🫤
