For those of you in committed relationships, What do you think is the #1 challenge couples have feeling that spark and intimate desire they crave?

#TN07 things aren't going that well are they? Everything costs more, this thanksgiving won't have the same "bounty" of food you're used to, and you are faced with skyrocketing health care costs. Want to change all that? That starts by voting for @aftynbehn.bsky.social

You know what one of the highest compliments is being a therapist? When someone I haven’t spoken to in a decade reaches out (out of the blue) to ask if I can support someone they care about. Feeling so grateful to do this work. ❤️

Remind me who we are supposed to be terrified is peeing next to me in a bathroom or reading to kids at a library? Because these emails are telling me it’s not the drag queens and trans people. It’s like they were lying the whole time.

Republicans/MAGA: sex and gender exist only on a STRICT binary. Also Republicans/MAGA: sexual abuse of a minor is actually a spectrum.

How is it that the same people who say trans kids are “too young to know themselves” suddenly want to argue that a 15-year-old can consent to sex? Make it make sense.

People who are shocked or horrified that MAGA acolytes are continuing to defend their dear leader CLEARLY didn’t grow up with adults making excuses for rape-y youth pastors. It’s disappointing, but not the least bit surprising.

“Well what if [Democrat/Progressive Name] is in the Epstein files?” I’m sorry, is that meant to be a real question? Because it’s asked like there’s more than one answer. You prosecute the ever-loving shit out of that person immediately, and publicly condemn them. It really is that simple.

Being a sex therapist in a conservative family doesn’t make parent phone calls less painful, but it sure does make them more entertaining. 🤣

Let’s get one thing real clear: there is NO 👏SUCH 👏THING 👏as “sex with trafficked children.” There is only rape and sexual abuse. No consent = abuse. #sexualassualt #childexploitation

No! The last time we tried “regime change” we ended up in a 20+ year un-winnable war, & broke a generation of veterans who are now unable to receive adequate healthcare due to cuts made to the VA. Stop trying to force regime changes overseas. Our service members and their families pay the price.

Waking up today in #Nashville feeling closer to thousands of my neighbors. Thank you for coming out yesterday. If nothing else, seeing thousands of folks come out to protest #NoKings makes me feel not so different from y’all.

@maddow.msnbc.com The Nashville #NoKings protest was truly incredible! It was well organized, peaceful and had the best energy of neighbors turning out to support their neighbors. @50501nashtn.bsky.social

I just read a post on one of the loc pages calling MAGA cult members “trumpanzees” and while I understand this is problematic, it also made me snarf my coffee. East Nashville is my favorite corner of the country.

Funny how “Don’t tread on me” turns into “stay silent” when it’s not your rights being trampled. Where are the liberty lovers when ICE skips due process? Freedom isn’t just a flag. And it’s only real if it applies to everyone. Silence in the face of injustice isn’t neutrality. It’s consent.

Emma Smith, PhD @emmasmithphd.bsky.social · 09/06/2025

I’m lucky to have people in my life who keep asking how I’m doing. I won’t sugarcoat it: this season is heavy. But practicing from a philosophical lens—one that helped a founder of our field survive the Holocaust—grounds me. It reminds me: meaning is still possible & that it can coexist w/ grief.

They are disappearing people with no due process. Do not forget them.

So we can’t support states with FEMA after a natural disaster, but we can send in the Nat’l Guard when Americans assemble to protect their neighbors? Ok. I see you.

The LAPD says there was no violence and they had things under control. The National Guard never even made it to their armories no matter clearing the streets. He’s declared victory and thinks he can dictate masks are illegal. This is a 2:41 AM lunatic post.

It doesn’t matter to Trump that Pete Hegseth endangered U.S. armed forces by sharing attack plans with his wife, his brother and a journalist. It matters to Trump that Hegseth is willing to order American troops to attack American civilians. That’s why Hegseth is there.

Now Hegseth is saying that the active duty Marines at Camp Pendleton are on alert to come in if the National Guard isn’t enough. The U.S. government is ready to unleash our own military on civilians. It is definitely time to be frightened about what is happening here.
