@StaceyCornelius@zeroes.ca I think I can relate. The pen in the foreground is mulberry wood from a tree that belonged to my parents. I turned it on a lathe I made out of a broken breadmaker. The glass for the inkwell is from a bottle of 1800 Reposado tequila. I made the lid from snowflake obsidian I got on a rockhounding trip with my family. I'm not using them a lot right now, but at the time they were the only thing that was important to me. *Crazy.* Nice to have when I need them, though.

@PrivacyDigest@mas.to God, I hate Utah. It's an intimate kind of hate, because I've lived here so long. Every year, they seem to erode more and more of my rights. The Mormons aren't even a majority anymore. Why are they still in charge of the state government? Seriously, fuck those guys. #utah #mormon #privacy #vpn

Dear Utah, I was having trouble deciding what to read next, and then you banned this one. Of course I went out and bought it new. I'm not going to thank you, though. I will, however, ask the fascist religislature to get the fuck off my free lawn. Sincerely, A reader who also votes with his wallet. #censorship #bannedbooks #utah #stephenking

He asserts it, but he hasn't proven it.

Bessel van der Kolk and Peter Levine's work depend heavily on pseudoscience. Unfortunately, they're both wildly successful as authors. The danger of their messages is that they keep people from getting scientifically established, more effective treatment for their PTSD.

Even worse: he was abusive enough to workers in his own clinic that they ousted him.

I have more links for anyone who's interested.

@Mrfunkedude@mastodon.social I hear this a lot and I generally believe it's true. That said, I was raised in a cult where I was voluntold to give thousands of hours of “service” that was mostly to benefit the organization and to keep us busy so we wouldn't question. To refuse was to be shunned and shamed. To this day, I've been largely unable to even think about volunteerism without a surge of anxiety and repulsion. Maybe I'll get around it someday. To the sincere volunteers, you have my respect.
