NEWS: The U.S. Supreme Court has temporarily RESTORED access to the abortion pill mifepristone via telehealth and mail—pausing a lower court ruling.

Some from other countries may flee to Mexico.

#Caregiving. It takes a lot of hard work, persistence, tolerance. I know because I was the primary caregiver for my longtime partner. Surprisingly, there were many magical moments, too. I write about one such moment in my latest blog: www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/chan... #selfcare

BREAKING: We're suing Louisiana officials for suspending the state's primary election after voting has already begun. On the heels of a Supreme Court decision that eviscerated protections for voters of color, elected officials jumped at the chance to disenfranchise people — we won't allow it.

What is happening in Louisiana right now is both a redistricting power grab and a dry run for authoritarian election subversion this Fall. The governor has declared a state of emergency to suspend the congressional elections because he doesn't like the current map.

Has the relatively new 988 number--the suicide and crisis hotline--saved lives? The answer is a resounding YES. Details below:

Terrific and terrifying article.

Victor Orbán is a horrible person, but at least he had the decency to immediately concede defeat. Donald Trump, an even worse person, *still* hasn’t conceded defeat—SIX YEARS LATER!

Nothing is safe from the Trump cuts. How many lives will be lost because this mental health and suicide hotline is understaffed?

Listen, there are a lot of influencers who get their content from legacy media and investigative journalism and then tell you not to support legacy media or investigative journalism. That’s grifting.

Man this is awesome Seth! What a great tune. I love it.

FDA approved the abortion pill mifepristone 25 years ago. So why is RFK Jr. raising questions about it now? He's trying to roll back abortion access nationwide. I'll keep fighting against attempts to restrict access—because medication abortion is safe and effective. Period.

Makes complete sense but we don’t think about this often enough.

OMG!

How outrageous is this?

Beautifully said.

How can anyone do therapy under these conditions?

Telling someone who can't stop ruminating to “just let it go” is like telling someone with anxiety to “just relax.” It’s not that simple. Here's what does help.
