If you do not have an executive function disorder please do not tell people who have executive function disorders to just have more "willpower" or "discipline".

It is extremely harmful.

Op 27 maart 2023 is het 80 jaar geleden dat de aanslag op het Amsterdamse bevolkingsregister plaatsvond. Een van de geestelijke moeders daarvan is de bijna vergeten advocaat en verzetsvrouw Lau Mazirel.

genitals, question 

Is there a name for having a visceral response of disgust to vaginas specifically?

This is not related to sexuality or gender in any way, it is really *purely* an involuntary response to the physical feature, and it can get overwhelmingly strong.

(And it's really frustrating to me)

I have to commend YouTube's commitment to making their interface worse and more hostile to users on a day to day basis. They've been at it a long time, and don't show any signs of slowing down. Here's to you, tube. 🍻

Unsure where to post this so thought I’d ask here really! Looking to hire a therapist.

I’m familiar with a couple sites - but I’m looking for someone familiar with being queer, maybe being furry?

As they’re such big parts of my lives, I’d feel more comfortable.

parenting, politics, abuse 

been thinking a lot about collective parenting, and how it has become such an alien concept to people because of the woefully long and damaging legacy of the nuclear family.

it's pretty simple too. if a child has multiple homes to go to, escaping abuse becomes a simpler matter.

yet people can't imagine it. just like capitalist realism.

Oh great neurotypicals fucked around with the clock again
