Would it be a HIPPA violation for a therapist to tell people (non-therapists, I mean) that her patients are on the spectrum? I know the cliche that even therapists have therapists but I'd be pissed if I knew my therapist was discussing my mental health with their friends and family.

Since I've been seeing a lot of victim blaming and Republicans using the paradox of tolerance to try and bully people into mourning Charlie Kirk, here is your daily reminder that the paradox of tolerance is a fascist manipulation tactic used to silence marginalized communities.

I have studied Neo-Paganism and New Age beliefs for nearly twenty years. I know the difference between psychiatry and bullshit, but if you're a dipshit taking life advice from a whyte supremacist who apparently did not own a dictionary then congrats.

Having empathy means you are able to discern when and why another person who is NOT YOU is upset. Being an empath means you are a fucking psychic who absorbs other people's emotions like a sponge. There is no scientific evidence supporting the existence of psychic empaths.

If you think that being an empath is the same thing as having empathy AKA basic human decency because #charliekirk said so then you should be fucking embarrassed. Cause they are not even remotely close to being the same thing.

It's sad to see that Bluesky is just another cesspool of performative allies for the transgender community. I imagine it won't be long before it goes the way of Tumblr and Meta.

Dani Finn caught a suspension for wishing ill on the most sensitive british bigot alive lmao

As a former Texas State Rep, let me be clear: LOCKING Rep. Nicole Collier inside the chamber is beyond outrageous.

Forcing elected officials to sign “permission slips” & take police escorts to leave? That’s not procedure. That’s some old Jim Crow playbook.

Letting political and religious ideologues control children’s reading choices leads to censoring their exposure to prize-winning literature and reflects obvious prejudices against books about racism and LGBTQ+ issues. It sacrifices scientific knowledge to faith and, in some cases, ignorance.”

It feels likely that Tom Holland might appear in one of the MCU's most anticipated TV shows in 2026, #ThePunisher's Disney+ special. 💀

Velshi Banned Book Club: Author Angie Thomas and a big win against censorship in Florida In August of 2024, a group of publishers, students, parents, and best-selling authors including Velshi Banned Book Club vets like Julia Alvarez, Laurie Halse Anderson, Jodi Picoult, and Angie Thomas filed a lawsuit against Florida for book banning provisions within House Bill 10-69, which saw 700+ beloved works of literature removed from shelves in the state. And this week, “we pushed back, and we won,” says author Angie Thomas. The freedom to read was upheld. “None of these books are obscene” wrote the judge in a 50-page decision. Books "are a gateway" to empathy, says Thomas. "They allow us to step into lives unlike our own.”
