New introduction post to pin.

I am and aware, continuing to and avoid most public places. All the info on Covid has continued to show that ignoring it is dangerous, to myself and to others. Most of my posts are about Covid, and I boost a lot of Covid information.

I am through self-diagnosis, many years of struggling, and dealing with and for various reasons. I am grateful to have this brain structure, even though in our ableist society it is a . people of all kinds should be recognized and properly supported.

I am a survivor of an aggressive thyroid cancer, and still beating the odds.

«And yet, the data is clear: Over 65% of participants in MDMA-assisted therapy no longer met criteria for PTSD after just three sessions. These were not mild cases. These were Veterans, survivors — people long failed by the standard of care. They did not find a miracle given to them — they found healing awakened within them.»

I have always wanted to get into cuz I LOVE a good story, and have a good voice, and never shut up, and I can be really dramatic at times.

I have been told my entire life since my voice changed that I needed to be on a or something, and as well as either digital or have always been important to me to escape when I at times.

I live in so I am in the perfect place.

Just need to know where to start.

Buchempfehlung:
Farben ohne Farbe
von meiner guten Freundin Anja Groller

Der Igel Knut fühlt sich an manchen Tagen innerlich taub, fühlt nichts, sieht Farben ohne Farbe und empfindet Sonnenstrahlen nicht warm.
Dachs Kunibert will seinen besten Freund an solchen Tagen helfen, besser verstehen und fragt sich, ob er Schuld daran haben könnte (hat er nicht).

Das Buch hilft Kindern Menschen im Umfeld besser zu verstehen, die unter Traumafolgen leiden.
Am besten sollte eine erwachsene Person das Kind beim Lesen des Buches begleiten.

Anja ist Sozial- und Traumapädagogin, sowie Trauma-Fachberaterin und außerdem meine Kollegin in der Ausbildung zur Fachkraft für Tiergestützte Intervention.
Ihr Hund Balu ist Therapiebegleithund.

Meine Hoffnung ist, dass das Buch mehr Empathie, Liebe und Verständnis in diese Welt bringt. Und mehr Farbe.

Meine Bewertung: Fünf Herzen!
❤️ 🧡 💛 💚 💙

Buchcover eines Kinderbuchs namens "Farben ohne Farbe". Die Illustration zeigt einen Dachs und einen Igel Hand in Hand von hinten. Die beiden schauen auf eine schöne Landschaft mit Bäumen, Blumen und Schmetterlingen, aber nur die Hälfte des Bildes (die Seite des Dachses) ist in Farbe. Die andere Seite, die des Igels, ist in Grautönen gehalten.

Content warning Y'all.. we've already met our goal. I'm too weary and full of phlegm to elaborate rn beyond saying THANK YOU! ❤️🥹

"Both the loss and uncertainty surrounding wildfires are traumatic, Jeff Katzman, a Connecticut-based psychiatrist who grew up in Pacific Palisades, California, told Axios.

'There is the lingering, not knowing status of what happened,' he said. 'There's the experience of loss of an entire community that has generations of meaning.'"

Looking for a Christmas present for the Space Opera nerd in your life? The one who insists on you watching The Expanse and all of Star Trek with them although you really, truly don't care about SciFi?

How about giving them Herald Petrel for Christmas? It is 457 pages and so they will be occupied for a while.

It has a to be solved, quirky characters and is about , , , , and in a hopeless situation.

Warning: It doesn't have a white guy as a captain who fixes everything. And there is A LOT that needs fixing.

Book cover of the SciFi novel Herald Petrel by Strange Seawolf, depicting Captain Harold Galahad running down a beaten up corridor on a space ship. He looks determined and wears a deranged company uniform with a long, flowing cloak, under his arm he carries a green glowing machine part. Artwork by Alj: https://www.instagram.com/aljeensane/
Back of the book with the blurb reading: If you ask Harold Galahad, he isn’t fit to lead the crew of the half-destroyed cargo spaceship Herald Petrel back home. But nobody asks Harry. An explosion leaves the ship helplessly floating in space and Harry reliving his own personal nightmare. He doesn’t want to be a captain anymore, and nobody trusts him as captain—least of all himself. The crew behaves strangely, his first officer is less than helpful, and the more he finds out, the more Harry has to challenge his own beliefs. While forced to relive the darkest part of his past, Captain Harold Galahad needs to figure out what happened and find a way back home.
