The above article is an update. Her mother went to appeal to keep her out of the psychiatric ward and lost. She will be institutionalized because of her expression of her gender.

I have been reading books on philosophy and psychology and fanfiction on the web. I’ve also been spending a lot of time reading blogs on the internet, ranging far and wide. These things have become tangled and I think they are very much related.
I didn’t read the original essay or anything because honestly stuff about technology taking over the...

Since I went and backtagged many, many of my posts — and therefore they now mostly all have tags on them — and also got an (admittedly slow, it’s a javascript) actual tag cloud up here. Though no one will really see that it’s in the linkbar except for the three people who don’t look at my tumblr via dashboard.
Anyway the point was apparently due to conversations with...

I’m serious, DON’T. I am not ready to tell this story yet, even though it happened six years ago, but trust me. Consequences can be dire.

What you learn from the textbook does not always fit real life perfectly.

Desert Valley had a limited cardiac license, which means it was allowed to place stents only in emergencies, such as after heart attacks. State hospital regulators determined several months later that the San Bernardino County hospital placed Kerkes ”at great health risk” by performing the procedure without the trained staff or specialized equipment required.
Since then, in response...

nehirose replied to your post: the conclusion to the bird story
Now that I have reached the thrilling conclusion and my speculation is no longer relevant: he may have been a juvenile something? He has that kind of half assedly adult plumage scrubby look going on. So maybe you were just more hip than mom and dad?

the conclusion to the bird story
I just hung out and talked to him a little longer — due to the color of the sere I’m assuming a male; parrots are the only kind of birds I know how to properly guess at a sex — and pet him a few more times. He kept fluttering his wings like he was thinking about taking off, and nosed my hand once or twice in a “that actually feels kind of nice” sort of way.

Be aware that the things inside our heads are very, very real to us. They might seem utterly irrational and ridiculous to you and sometimes they might frustrate you, but saying that doesn’t help us; taking what we’re saying seriously and finding a way to help us work through it helps us.
Admitting when you’re in over your head helps us. Because, hey, we get it. Crazy sucks for us sometimes and...
