It feels like our public health systems have gone backwards since covid. Not because we don’t have the skills and resources, but because of ideology.

I’m a trauma researcher. So many people shouldn’t have kids.

I have a bachelors in psychology so was able to pick based on my understanding of approaches. I knew I didn’t want CBT, so went with an ACT psych instead. Mine is also a developmental psychologist so I knew they’d be more likely to understand neurodevelopmental disabilities than your average psychologist.

I’m Audhd and pretty much use my psychologist for all of this.

It’s interesting that people want daylight savings in qld during summer because we spend most of summer wanting the sun to fuck off.

Earthquakes

Fuck this was depressing to read. Validating though.

Amazing public relations campaign if this is all part of a marketing thing.

The boomers have been really successfull in simultaneously punching down across the generations and making us punch down on each other at the same time.

Gonna throw a hat in the ring here for the British Empire as the king of genocide.

As an autistic person that’s a double fuck you from me

Wonder if he got this advice from his dog

Wholemeal is the best

Subjectification. People normalise what’s normal for them.

Surely this is intersectional though right? Not all men are the same or have the same experience of political issues. I can see how straight white cis men might feel like these spaces aren’t for them. But queer men might feel differently about this. Black men also.

Also if you feel like existing spaces aren’t for you, then free to create your own spaces. There’s nothing holding you back.

We do the queen/king’s bday on a different date to whatever the current Monarch’s actual bday is. Surely we could just do the same thing with any of these other dates.

It’s the holiday equivalent of those oversized American utes

Human civilisation feels like it’s regressing.

These companies have entire public relations departments that can see the writing on the wall. The people who want to celebrate Australia day as it currently is are dying out / becoming irrelevant. Millenials will soon be the largest generation. Sure there are still millenials that have no problem celebrating Australia day, but they are increasingly in the minority. Even moreso in gen z.

Personally I don’t even know if i think the date should be changed anymore. Maybe it would be better if we embraced Indigenous Australian’s experience and treated it as a day of mourning. Essentially, stop cebrating on this day and treat it more like rememberence day. A day where we reflect on the ongoing impacts of colonisation and commit to rectifying injustices. A day of truth telling. I’m happy to go with what Indigenous Australians think is best.

Yeah 100%. You can see the change just in gen z’s attitudes towards this. The rallies are also getting bigger each year.
