In January, someone came into my comments on #Mastodon for a second time, upset at my #advocating for loved ones.
Each time with the same message; that, for this person's benefit, those seeking #mutualaid should just go and quietly 💀, not speak out in pain and anger, as needs go unmet.
It's made this platform feel unsafe, that those who claim to fight against #eugenics & #fascism, often don't see the contradiction.
In Episode 47, Amanda shares the passion and frustration of what it's like to be a nurse in the American healthcare system.

#Democrats #bet #VicePresident #KamalaHarris will move #left as #president.
Some #progressives, however, are disappointed the #Harris #campaign thinks she needs to move to the #center to be more #competitive against #Trump. They think she would win more #votes by #advocating for #bigger and #bolder #reforms.

I was reflecting with my husband on the situation where other kids’ behavior was #triggering me and my son on Saturday. He was firm in #advocating for his needs, did so in a socially acceptable manner, didn’t melt down when ignored, and completed his event immediately after in fine form.
He’s struggled and battled a lot of ableism and ignorance in schools, but with great support has built up his skills and #resilience. I’m really proud of him. ❤️
