Just throwing it out there that I do book private, virtual sitter-sessions over Google Meet. You can email my business email below for scheduling. Pricing is pay what you can for 30mins or 1hr. Payment is through Venmo, PayPal, or CashApp, but PayPal is preferred. Because it's a simple Google Meet link, scheduling is very flexible. Feel free to reach out if you have questions you're seeking answers to! People often ask me what kinds of questions are good to ask, and the answer is pretty much anything you could see yourself praying about. Just write a little list of things you'd like to know, or of people you'd like to get in touch with. Some people ask about their past, others ask about their potential future, but many are seeking comfort in the present. It's all okay. Follow the call of your heart.

(P.S. I love helping people in their own psychic and mediumistic development journey and will gladly offer exercises, practical healing techniques, and support/advice as you pursue your own connections to Spirit. That's a very valid use of the time should you want that.)

[email protected]

The heading can just be "session scheduling" with your first name only in the email body as well as any general goals you might have. Under no circumstances do you need to give any identifying information about yourself or the specific outcomes of your goals.

Blessings to you, and I hope to be able to support you on your life's path!

Recovering from autistic burnout as a high-masking adult:

To recover, you literally need to manually learn skills that most people learn as a toddler

You need to learn what makes your body uncomfortable, and what to do to fix it

If you are high-masking, that usually means that you have learned to ignore every distress signal your body sends unless it is a distress signal that a neurotypical person would recognize. People have likely been unintentionally gaslighting you about your lived experience your entire life

If you feel bad or panicked for no reason, stop and try to pay attention to your body. Are you tense? You are likely feeling physical pain somewhere. If you've been gaslit about your pain your entire life, you might not be able to identify it.

Go through a sensory checklist.

SIGHT: Try closing and covering your eyes. If this gives you relief, the lights are probably too bright. You may also need differently-colored lights

SOUND: Cover your ears. Does this give you relief? If so, you may need earplugs or noise canceling headphones. You may also benefit from a neutral or pleasant background noise, like soft music or brown noise.

TOUCH: Are your clothes uncomfortable? Your chair? Your body? Do you feel greasy, like you need a shower? Do you need softer, sensory-friendly clothing?

TASTE: Do you need to brush your teeth or tongue? Would chewing on something help?

SMELL: Is there a strong or unpleasant smell in the room? Do you need to clean or empty a trash can? Would an air purifier help? Would a pleasant smell like a candle help?

INTEROCEPTION: Are you hungry? Thirsty? Tired? How is your posture? Are any of your muscles tight or sore? Scan your body slowly from head to feet, tensing and loosening each group of muscles. Going for a walk or doing a series of quick stretches may help a lot.

Learning how to do this stuff is not intuitive, if you've had an entire lifetime of gaslighting telling you that everything hurting you isn't a big deal and you're being dramatic over nothing.

This takes time, it takes work, it's not intuitive, and it's hard. Most people forget how hard it is, because they learned this as toddlers.

If you want to recover, you need to relearn your whole body. And get over your idea of "normal" and just wear the damn sunglasses and put on the headphones. If people stare, fuck em. You're disabled and they can deal with that.

It’s impossible to vent about being lonely in the gay male community on here bc the pokemon jockstrap dudes will start reblogging it like “me except for my bi-weekly sex parties where all my 50 closest friends (no fats allowed) meet up and fuck each other in the ass” like okay I don’t think that’s the same as what I’m feeling

"Why do you talk so much about being intersex?"

Over 90% of parents of visibly intersex children opt for cosmetic surgery on their infants.

The ones that don't experience medical violence then, likely experience it as a teenager.

I didn't.

I am very rare in that I did not experience medical violence.

Why? Because I learned what intersexuality was as a young age, and I actively fought against what doctors wanted to do to me. All the way down to legal research on what medical care minors can be forced into. I remember walking into that doctor's appointment with the state law written down that proved that if I did not consent they could not do surgery.

That is why intersex activism is important. It saved me and it will save more.

"All religions are cults if you think about it"

Actually they're not all cults and you're doing the work of making sure actual cults can slip under the radar when you say stuff like that

Cult leaders LOVE that trend, because they can point to it and say, "people will call anything a cult, it's basically meaningless"

I'm begging you all to stop using the word cult until you really understand what it means

Barbra Streisand in The Owl and the Pussycat, 1970

[bitter69uk]

Born on this day: singer, actress, songwriter, filmmaker, EGOT and quintessential show biz diva Barbra Streisand (née Barbara Joan Streisand, 24 April 1942). As gossip columnist extraordinaire Michael Musto recently put it, “The voice of a lifetime, combined with classic acting and directing talent – and those nails! Barbra long ago redefined Hollywood’s rules, as well as the guidelines for what a woman is allowed to do in filmmaking. She’s the perennial outsider who ended up achieving it all.”  I must be a masochist, because I actually finished her berserk 966-page autobiography (it’s the size of a phone book), in which Babs forensically rakes over every grudge, every disagreement, every review (good and bad), settles scores and remembers every outfit she wore and what she ate over the decades! Funny Girl (1968), What’s Up, Doc? (1972) and The Way We Were (1973) are justifiably hailed as classics, but I love Streisand best in her offbeat efforts like The Owl and the Pussycat (1970) (pictured), the oddball feminist black comedy Up the Sandbox (1972) and For Pete’s Sake (1974).

No religion is "ideologically pure." Every single one, for its entire history, has been stealing from, fleeing from, responding to, accepting, and rejecting, ideas from its ideological neighbors.

[cryptotheism]

This shaping of identity by selectively incorporating and rejecting ideas from Othered groups is, in fact, one of the major instrumentalities of religion.

[cryptotheism]

FAKE RELIGION: 19th century reconstructionist religions based on chronologically diffuse fragments from various unrelated northern european peoples that got steamrolled by the Roman empire

FAKE RELIGION: 1st-7th century abrahamic religions based on chronologically diffuse fragments from various near eastern temple cults that also got steamrolled by the Roman empire.

REAL RELIGION: australopithecus born on an island and never learned to speak language or saw another human being because their mother died in childbirth and they survived on mole milk and was therefore able to think in pre-linguistic ideologically-isolated pure concepts making a clay figurine of her own penis.

At face value, this is a ridiculous headline. But the article then says his managers berated and insulted him for leaving the party after an anxiety attack, and the company then fired him for taking days off work for “unsafe work practices,” due to having anxiety?

[ivan-fyodorovich-k]

Seems like pretty often headlines that paint a lawsuit as frivolous and ridiculous seem a little more rational after some digging

[clockworkrobotic]

There’s so much more to it as well. He repeatedly asked the company not to throw a party for him due to his anxiety (apparently this is standard practise for their office and he knew it would be triggering for him) and they “forgot” about his request. On the day in question, he predictably had a panic attack and went to his car to do breathing exercises.

The next day he was called into a meeting where he was insulted and grilled about “ruining the party” and “stealing his co-workers’ joy”, which caused him to have another panic attack and start doing coping behaviours like hugging himself, at which point his employers decided he must be angry and was going to turn violent. They then suspended him for days and later told him he’d been fired.

So yeah, it’s not over an “unwanted birthday party”, it’s over employers repeatedly failing to accommodate someone’s disability, trying to frame them as the villain for having accessibility needs, and firing them for not conforming to some stupid office politics.

I am completely pro-lawsuit. Lawsuits are often the only tool that otherwise powerless individuals have to demand some accountability from large corporations and institutions, and historically lawsuits have been a very important tool for civil rights, women’s rights, LGBT+ rights, and disability rights. But this is exactly why the media is always depicting lawsuits as something frivolous and silly that only uptight spoiled crybabies who want easy money do, and people just eat up that propaganda without doing any research or critical thinking.
