The closest we get to seeing empathy be at all toxic is usually reserved for a one-on-one relationship, where someone’s lack of boundaries means they get exploited. Not *checks notes* giving a shit about fellow humans
Why is the Venn diagram of people who chafe at the idea of toxic masculinity and the people who use the phrase “toxic empathy” a circle?
Speaking of healthcare. Let's make @bsky.app the platform that fights misinformation. Some great follows are @drsusanoliver.bsky.social @jsm2334.bsky.social @therealtruther.bsky.social
Let's get them more followers and engagement than other platforms and let health science accounts find a home
To everyone having a tough time in the first (holy fuck not even a week?!?)
While you feel your light is dimmed, it is still a light in this world, and nurturing that light is an act of defiance and rebellion
Based on recent developments I am officially announcing switching my Mario Kart 64 main from Wario to Luigi.
Shout out to the Biden administration for saving TikTok on its last day in office
The Nazgûl were too much for her. We are now watching the Aristocats
She seems locked in as we find out that Sauron has returned
My daughter wanted to watch something after she wandered in as my son and I finished the Super Mario Bros Movie. Rolling the dice that this is the time to introduce her to Lord of the Rings. So far, she seems invested and is asking questions about some characters
At first glance I thought that was Jill Stein sitting down at the table with her back to us
Look, if cranberries can be weird and bitter and still liked by roughly half the people at Thanksgiving dinner, then so can you!
I would totally rewatch a Love Boat remake with Hannah Waddingham in a lead role (overtired parade thoughts)
I seem to recall Ross Perot saying he wouldn’t take a salary if elected president. Seems a rich guy who truly loves his country should not take money from the government so that money could idk, feed a kid or provide healthcare to someone in need?
This is what they meant when they said “share the good news”
When pizza’s on a bagel, you can eat pizza anytime
Me, a therapist

My pt: Yes.
Church sign that reads “stop walking around with a mouthful of scriptures and a heart full of hate”
Dear Christians,
Petition to re-pronounce it this way
I haven’t understood Instagram since about 2019. Some stuff gets seen by thousands, and some stuff barely gets seen by close friends. There used to be engagement on posts but now it feels like a coin flip for an algorithm
I love her so much. Please give her extra scritches
To me this is the beauty of all the different types of art. When it makes us explore ourselves and our notions of the world, and how it can be transformative. Art, like humanity, should inspire us to connection with the humanity of each other, not hatred.
Not me, with my tree up since Halloween night, a TARDIS tattoo, and guiltily realizing I don’t own a single Whovian ornament
A government run by billionaires will never be for the people.
Am I flirting wrong? Because I’ve never had a police report filed, nor police called when I’ve flirted with someone.
Red Rising will be on my agenda to read next year!
Multiple clients of mine suggested Stormlight Archives by Sanderson (The Way of Kings pictured below). All of them felt their experiences with depression and anxiety were perfectly captured in these books. I just finished book 4, and book 5 is out in 2 weeks. The first 4 also on sale on kindle today
I have no clue how I missed this, both the original post and how long it took until I understood. I must be following the FBI playbook
