Hey, #therapistsOfMastodon, esp those practicing exclusively online:

I'm looking for a secure online form platform that's HIPAA compatible and offers a BAA for not unreasonable money, and is standalone (NOT part of a whole practice management/EHR/telehealth package).

Whatcha using and do you like it?

I'm looking at FormHippo, which is very cheap (which is good, I need cheap) but also looks rather sketchy. Opinions on it?

Therapsids Originated in Tropical Rather than Temperate Regions https://www.sci.news/paleontology/mallorca-gorgonopsian-13515.html

Early–middle Permian Mediterranean gorgonopsian suggests an equatorial origin of therapsids https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-024-54425-5

"#Therapsids were a dominant component of #Permian terrestrial ecosystems, eventually giving rise to #mammals during the early #Mesozoic... #Paleontologists have discovered a #NewSpecies of early #gorgonopsian #therapsid that was part of an ancient summer wet biome of equatorial #Pangea"

Okay, but if I could just nerd out for a second, #synapsids and #therapsids are freaking cool and yet they don't get as much attention as the dinosaurs, and here's some introductory information on them: https://dinomuseum.ca/2020/02/a-brief-history-of-mammals-part-1-the-early-synapsids

New Triassic #Dicynodont Species Discovered in Poland
https://www.sci.news/paleontology/woznikella-triradiata-11963.html

"#Dicynodonts were an important clade of herbivorous #therapsids, which originated in the #Permian and vanished in the latest #Triassic... In the Triassic, this clade ranged from miniscule animals less than half a meter long to massive species comparable in size to the largest living terrestrial #mammals"

It's extraordinary we're here at all. The Permian-Triassic extinction known as the "Great Dying" was worse than you could possibly imagine.

Also of note: Dinosaurs were small potatoes during the early Triassic. Many other Archosaurs and reptiles dominated

#African #FossilFriday

Southern #Africa is one of the most important places in the world for understanding the #Permian, the period that ended with the largest #MassExtinction in #Earth's history. The valleys of the #Luangwa and #Zambezi in #Zambia 🇿🇲 are particularly rich in Permian fossils, including this #gorgonopsian on display at the #UniversityOfWashington's #BurkeMuseum. These impressive animals are #therapsids, close relatives of mammals and perhaps the first #sabertooths.

Hey, @psychotherapists, this blog post above points to a very interesting article about a more phenomenological conception of schizophrenia. It is not particularly radical or a huge change in conception from the DSM model, but it frames sx more in line with the inner lived experience reported by people experiencing them. If you work with clients on the sz spectrum, I recommend it. Thought provoking.

What a letdown! I was promised that ChatGPT was "a bullshit generator" but I can't get it to output a 3rd-party-payer-adequate tx plan at all. Hrmph!
