which brings us right back to one of the points Cory makes: who can actually afford an in-person, private therapist nowadays? (at least in the US)

@Jeanniewarner @Phosphenes @lemgandi @pluralistic

- IF you can afford a therapist
- IF you can find one available
- your next hurdle is the conservative stigmatization of mental health as a moral failing rather than a societal failing – you need a mental health professional to get you over the hurdle of needing to seek out a mental health professional

@rysiek @alxd

“burnout” is a pretty solidly established psychological term at this point that it would be more appropriate to use it for people’s reactions to climate catastrophe rather than any single aspect of the catastrophe

there’s Stuart Slade’s *Salvation War* series (LiveJournal plus US-military-fuck-yeah writing) – God declares Armageddon, Hell invades Earth, but technology has advanced just a little in the last couple millennia

@ploum @molly0xfff

personally, I go more by “delivery method”:
- if it’s web-based, it’s a blog
- if it’s email-based, it’s either a newsletter (single-source) or a mailing list (multi-source)
