damn, Mercedes workers have already: -- killed two-tier wages -- gotten their UAW pay bump -- fired their boss and they haven't even voted yet! If that's what you get for just *talking* union, imagine what you can win when you *join* the union. May 13-17, get ready.

I think it was watching a Palestinian girl have her leg amputated by her surgeon uncle on a dining room table with a kitchen knife and no morphine, and knowing this is happening because of American munitions — not people trying to get laid or networking for status.

Imagine @JohnFetterman having the courage to meet with his constituents like this rather than snarking on twitter.
@mindyisser I think a lot of therapists have not learned healthy confrontation skills themselves and therefore have absolutely 0 idea how to model and implement them in therapeutic spaces. Validation is a key part of therapy, but it needs balance and like… basic connection to reality
@mindyisser The whole practice has too little quality control cause most undergrad degrees in social work, counseling, and psychology are so heavily ethics focused that they don’t teach you practical knowledge. & too much person centered & solution focused and not enough DBT when appropriate
@mindyisser I believe that a method like cognitive-behavioral therapy is really only useful for like 1 year, and then you need to try some different structure like DBT that will actually challenge your thought processes rather than simply identifying them
I see this all the time in people!
talk therapy has saved my life MANY times so i’m not wholly against it but there seems to be a trend of therapists indulging patients’ worst and least healthiest instincts and i don’t understand it
you should absolutely never feel like it's impossible for you to be the victim, but at the same time, you are also not the victim of every single situation in your life that has ever upset you. and the right therapist can help you understand the difference
so so so true. if your therapist always indulges you and never pushes you to question your role in conflict in your life then you should maybe find another one!

Ohhh i am so excited and ready to have this conversation
talk therapy has saved my life MANY times so i’m not wholly against it but there seems to be a trend of therapists indulging patients’ worst and least healthiest instincts and i don’t understand it
my therapist directly called me out ‘u are afraid to leave because ur dépendant in some ways on ur abusive parent’ and i was like 😮 mouth open, like ur right but goddamn! anyway she puts me in my place

Awed by these kids
there's guys arguing with Connor Lewis who are clearly just googling "union negotiation"
My 1st day at the Philadelphia Daily News was 17 years ago today. I thought I'd stay 5 years, but I fell in love with Philly & with Philadelphians. This city & the people in it have given me so much - esp. perspective, courage & grit. I'll be forever grateful I found my way here
@mindyisser whats crazy is ive seen many people quit their therapists for the opposite reason: that they didnt Validate Their Feelings (thats the job of a friend not a therapist!!!) so i wonder if some have adopted that approach from a pure business perspective
This is so real because social media pushes this whole “cut off toxic people” which is the case sometimes but as a last resort. Why can’t people have a proper conversation
i think a lot of this is related to our society’s overcorrection regarding “boundaries” and our lack of ability to have any real conflict and instead just cut people off. sad, pathetic, i hate it
Therapy is a great thing for many folks who need it but marketing it as a cure-all that every person on earth needs has attracted a bunch of people that absolutely do not need therapy to therapy to have a guy they found online tell them “everything you’re doing is so awesome…”
talk therapy has saved my life MANY times so i’m not wholly against it but there seems to be a trend of therapists indulging patients’ worst and least healthiest instincts and i don’t understand it
the bar at outback steakhouse where you order a drink while waiting for your to-go order of bloomin' onions is a great example of a third space
That is why I’m a strong advocate of CBT. I realized I re-triggered myself so much while doing talk therapy with therapists who just let me rant for 45 minutes. I was very good at discussing my problems, but terrible at expressing emotions. Plus other stuff.
