A point I haven’t seen made, but is obvious to me, is that if SSRIs (likely SNRIs and newer serotonergic modulators get lumped in) are banned, it will largely take depression treatment back to where it was with TCAs and MAOIs. This is not good.

LLMs do not understand, will not understand, and cannot ever understand information. It's a glorified search engine combined with auto-compete, and you should treat it as such. No matter how much LLM companies try to tell you their machines can think or reason, they cannot and will not.

My doomer-worry about AI is not that the LLMs become omnipotent and take over the world but that the wealthy and powerful use it as a means to consolidate power and marginalize or lay off skilled workers and also everything about our technological and political and social life gets worse

Psychiatrists need to do everything we can to ensure that we are prioritizing the healing and supporting of survivors above all else. Trauma is the very root of so much of the illness that we see. Yet psychiatry can also be co-opted to uphold the same systems that oppress survivors. Be vigilant.

“Trans people, especially young trans people, are being failed,” says Chay Brown of @transactualuk.bsky.social as we reveal a disproportionate number of trans youth have died by suicide over six years.
One in six children who died by suicide were LGBTQ+, new data shows
Amid heated public debate about whether trans children are dying by suicide, campaigners say we need to "take the politics out of policymaking"

It is so interesting and creepy how sinister people are able to just… find each other. Or do they influence each other to be worse as a means of solidifying their in-group?

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Florida is so backward that if you are a smart person here, you will be treated like you are stupid by the actual stupid people, and there are so many that it starts to warp your perception of reality

Abolish ICE, prosecute and imprison its leaders, impeach and remove the President from office. This is the only sane reaction to a group of armed men kidnapping and gunning down our neighbors in the street.
As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.
ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

I’m coming to the really unfortunate conclusion that some people really went into psychiatry so that they could look down on and wield power over mentally ill and neurodivergent people. It’s not a lot, but it’s definitely some, and they’re disgusting

This time last year I had never successfully grown a plant that didn’t die or get eaten by my cats in its prime. Now I have an entire bouquet of roses that I grew, and many happy plants in my garden 😊

My too-woke take of the day is that “two truths and a lie” is ableist. Do you know how hard it is for me to come up with a lie like that on the spot? If it’s easy for you, I don’t trust you

I think the second “virtue signaling” was coined as a term, we should’ve known American society was taking a turn for the worst. 2015. If you think people are inherently faking empathy towards an issue that doesn’t directly affect them, it’s an indictment of your own character.

I can’t deal with Florida anymore, despite my best efforts, but I really will miss St. Pete and I am glad I got to grow up here. I still think it’s a really cool place.

I understand that a lot of folks have been misled by fear-mongering and powerful regressive voices but it’s still astonishing to me that so many have fallen for the idea that oppressively policing other people’s gender identity and expression could in any way be part of an enlightened future.
