Isn't it weird that doctors—who are well known to have high stress jobs—don't get chronic pain, orthostatic intolerance, random new allergies, cognitive issues, palpitations, chronic fatigue, etc en masse.

They must be immune to all the symptoms they claim stress causes 🤔

New video shows a cop violently assaulting 21-year-old Eryn Bonner in Tempe, Arizona.

The officer can be seen tackling the woman to the ground and then punching her in the face.

Here’s where it gets batshit crazy:

𝐀𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐩𝐬, 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐠𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐮𝐥𝐭.

The charges against her were dropped, but the cop who actually committed the assault has not been charged.

How much more violence are the American people going to let the police inflict on our communities?

As someone who graduated summa cum laude from a Big Ten school who has battled intracranial pressure, cerebral hypoperfusion, poor glymphatic clearance, migraines, word finding difficulties, severe brain fog, and photosensitivity over the past year, I would insist to my providers that I had "dementia" or "cheerleader CTE." ...and they tried to tell me it was unmedicated ADHD until I finally was able to convince them to image me. Prior to this, I "only" had a PMDD/ADHD diagnosis for 20 years. I approached a ticket agent at the airport and asked her how the "airport works." I'm only making gains because I am a hospital administrator who knows when/how to push the psychiatry, neurology, neurosurgery, neuroophthalmology, and immunology levers. I am using biologics and psychedelics to suppress neurogenic inflammation. I'm taking meds to reduce CSF production. I am doing glympathic drainage. I needed to get one stent in my pelvis and perhaps another in my brain itself.

What I can say is that framing his suicide wholly as a "mental health issue" seems disingenuous. This is a neurological crisis. Calling a friend wasn't going to save my brain; it was assembling a of team of physicians across the country and project managing them with the tenacity of a hospital administrator. And I wasn't even getting my head repeatedly smashed in.

We really CANNOT have sustainable energy because it threatens the oil industry. We cannot have healthcare because it threatens insurance. We cannot have peace because it threatens the weapons industry. Capitalism built a system where doing the right thing is treated like bad business.

Dear white women. The Handmaids Tale did not "predict the future," it is without exaggeration based on the real treatment of Black and Indigenous people thru history. It HAS happened, its BEEN happening, its just for the first time it is happening to YOU. Get it together.

Too on point not to share, “Aussie reply to Trump rant about NATO not being there for us.

Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
"NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your fucking mouth. Credit (borrowed from) Jim Scroggins - original author 📷 unknown”

Hong Kong lawmaker Dominic Lee brilliantly exposes the hypocrisy and decay of the West:

“What moral authority does the U.S., a country ruled by the Epstein class, have over my country which has lifted 800 million people out of poverty?

What moral authority do NATO countries have who preach human rights while turning a blind eye to the Zionist genocide in Gaza?

We will not accept lectures by governments that use human rights as weapons while their own hands are stained with the blood of Palestinians and Iranians they choose to forget.”

The older I get, the more convinced I am that anxiety and depression are just natural responses to a deeply unjust society.

[Astrid @Astridueil]

How will you continue your day after hearing that a father in Gaza, trapped beneath the rubble, begged rescuers not to save him?

Not because he had lost hope in life, but because he could hear his daughters’ final breaths beneath the debris. Their tiny hands were holding his in the darkness, as if pleading with him one last time. He was the father who had always been their safe refuge, yet this time he was powerless to pull them from the dust and shattered concrete.

Only his head was visible above the wreckage. He looked into the eyes of the rescuers, his own eyes exhausted by fear and helplessness, and said:
“Leave me… my daughters are here… I do not want to come out alone.”

What heart can bear such a scene? What language can describe the agony of a father who realizes he is losing his daughters one by one, while still holding their hands until they grow cold, unable to offer rescue or even one final embrace?

How will your day go on after knowing this story? How will you sit at your table in peace, or laugh at something trivial, knowing that somewhere there was a father whose last wish was not to survive alone?

And the question that continues to haunt the human conscience remains:

How much pain must the world witness before it finally hears the cry of a single father there?

You actually reduce crime by eliminating poverty. You reduce crime with universal healthcare, public housing, livable wages, and free college. You reduce violence by creating happy, healthy communities that aren’t constantly fighting over basic needs and material resources.

@MastrXYZ She is adorable❤️ Our cat was 18 years old when she died. She was a gift for my daughters 4th birthday. When we brought our son home as an infant she treated him like her baby & followed him around until the day she died. May the memories of her bring you all comfort❤️
