You can try a game of saying, “hey, what would be true if both my experience and this fact that feels opposite of my experience were true at the same time”. I think it is really useful. You don’t have live in that space but its okay to play in it. 324918
Reposted by Ada Hagan, Ph.D.Mzbitca @mzbitca.bsky.social · 15/05/2025I think of it that there are two types of importance. The importance of me being me and what I need.

Ada Hagan, Ph.D. @dradawrites.bsky.social · 06/05/2025Well, I mean, we haven't gotten her to stop watching Fox when FiL puts it on, but I did get her to go to Harshbarger's office once to at least ask about what's going on so IDK - at a minimum, she can't say that she wasn't told! 010
Ada Hagan, Ph.D. @dradawrites.bsky.social · 06/05/2025Agree! One of the first things that got through was showing my MiL the proposed Medicaid cuts. As a scientist, I'm very fact heavy, but there's data that presenting opposing facts only solidifies the existing position - so then I get overwhelmed & don't know where to start lol 110
Ada Hagan, Ph.D. @dradawrites.bsky.social · 06/05/2025We've been able to move the needle a little bit w/ my MiL, but I think that's primarily b/c 1) we're govt adjacent & can share *personal* impacts 2) she's been warned that if certain rxs become unavailable, she'll lose access to family (we'll move) 110
Ada Hagan, Ph.D. @dradawrites.bsky.social · 06/05/2025And when you do, where do you even begin? When they're getting distorted information, what's the common ground on which to move forward? 111
Ada Hagan, Ph.D. @dradawrites.bsky.social · 06/05/2025I hate DRM, especially for media "purchases" vs subscriptions. At least with subscriptions it's clear that you're paying for access & don't actually own anything. 020
Ada Hagan, Ph.D. @dradawrites.bsky.social · 06/05/2025Ok, Thanks for clarifying! Based on the other responses, I was beginning to wonder if you were speaking generally about libraries having to pay & I just read too much into it. 000
Ada Hagan, Ph.D. @dradawrites.bsky.social · 06/05/2025Ohhh... I assumed they had a certain number of licences ("copies") of each e-book that could be used at a time at a flat fee. I didn't realize it was a per-use fee! 5170
