Few people with #bipolardisorder speak openly of their diagnosis or treatment - and far fewer speak to reporters about it. That makes it hard to get attention for the fact that help is available, and treatment works. Kudos to this young man. And to his @umich.edu psychiatrist!

THIS. I get an email like this every few weeks. They are selling hard to academic to offload the work to make space for other "more important" work. But analysis & writing IS the work that honors the voices of intellectual ancestors, centers the participants & connects the two to to build theory

This commentary was the first place I've gotten to write about and theorize how medical education inculcates trainees into a culture of the "dys-appearing body" (to use Leder's phrase), as in, how medical school trains people to ignore their bodily needs.

I am seeing more and more opinions bubbling up about how throwing trans people to the wolves would be a winning strategy for Democrats, and I just want to quickly say: Fuck off with that absolute dog shit.

Folks: A number of the most committed fascist trolls are coming over here and trying to create a presence, presumably bc Xitter will quickly lose its value as everyone migrates. One way to combat them is to use @numb.comfortab.ly 's list to mass block them.
