the white cis heteronormative claim on birth, bodies & care is truly endless. the "husband" stitch is only one manifestation of how health "care" weaponizes violence against people's vulnerability. my dear friend @carriemurph interviewed me in 2018 for @Healthline and i quote:

ok i've been here for 12 minutes and my pulse is up.

[Carrie Murphy 🌙 @carriemurph]

i haven't really used twitter in more than a year—and tbh, it's been going great. HIGHLY recommend not spending time here for your mental and emotional health. that said...

there's literally nothing to celebrate about anything happening in mainstream american politics. Critique and rebuke all of it.

i came back here to share about my new online course this week, but twitter is still making me feel as 😱 as it did earlier this year. 2020 twitter just does not feel healthy for my brain. love y'all tho.

i’ve tried to price it affordably at $33, but will have two weeks a year where i offer it for pay-what-you-can. 12% of profits in even months will go to a BIPOC-led and centered person, group or organization. ⁠

[Carrie Murphy 🌙 @carriemurph]

i've taken care to include information on birth trauma and to make the overall course trauma-aware, keeping in mind that giving birth is not a positive experience for many people, especially BIPOC and especially in the US medical system.⁠

[Carrie Murphy 🌙 @carriemurph]

40+ diverse birth story examples. 9 writing exercises. 70+ questions/prompts. Information and resources on birth trauma. + MORE!
$33, but please take 15% off until 11/16 with code STORYLOVE. happy to answer Qs ❤ please, please share!

[Carrie Murphy 🌙 @carriemurph]

it's a gentle, encouraging method that helps parents who really want to have a memorable story for themselves or as a family keepsake, but who may be feeling stuck, strapped for time, or just plain overwhelmed at the thought of writing about such an important life event.

[Carrie Murphy 🌙 @carriemurph]

spent 15 minutes trash-talking trump and talking about the generational attitudes of baby boomers and millennials with an older Black man at rouse's (grocery store) this morning and tbh it felt like a really great american moment

[Carrie Murphy 🌙 @carriemurph]

@nyssabiflora i'm so sorry you have trauma from your birth.

[Carrie Murphy 🌙 @carriemurph]

TY for RT @BrackenScott!
