I know everyone is gone from here but I need to vent.
A week into the semester, my vertigo is suddenly back with a vengeance. It is *so* hard to concentrate when the room is spinning. It's hard to relax. Very hard to teach.
And in my dreams, I'm flying an airplane in circles.

Right-wing billionaires are spending millions to elect Trump.
Right-wing billionaires spent millions rigging the Supreme Court.
Donald Trump and SCOTUS will give them tax breaks, deregulations and protection.
Right-wing billionaires can now legally “tip” them for doing it too.
Hi all. My sister has cancer. I'd be so grateful if you would donate any amount to help her financially during this year. Please share if you can.

Folks, if you are googling drug interactions, *please* don't trust the AI results. I've seen several examples of incorrect information (I google medical stuff a lot, my OCD subtype)
FYI, you can call any pharmacy & ask about interactions. And there are reputable sites out there

In March last year @ErinPritchard15 & i edited a book & it was published. Today, it is now unpublished, it has been silenced &we have received a reversion of rights. Im proud of this collection, of everyone who wrote a chapter, the bravery of every single author. We will be back.
I think one of the reasons I choose the label "mental illness" is because I spent so many years masking, pretending I was OK.
It feels so good to be open about being disordered, ill, disabled.
It's not a judgement. It doesn't mean I'm bad or whatever. It's just a descriptor.
Can you tell just by looking at me that I drove to therapy with the windows down singing along to blaring Indigo Girls?
This may be tough to answer, but what Writing Studies journals do you think are best about publishing articles about Disability Studies and/or Disability Justice?

I got home from RSA eight days ago, and I have had a headache literally since then. I don't even know what I've been doing for all these days. Animal Crossing, that's for sure. Anyway I feel like I'm turning the corner to being human again this afternoon, and I'm doing laundry.
Question for adhd folks. I'm trying a stimulant medication for the first time. I'm a bit nervous. Any advice? Should I test it on a work day or a rest day? (Yes I'm overthinking it)
