@sometherapist I would really like to read Mia Hughe's paper, even if it hasn't been published yet. Does anyone have a link pretty-please?

I welcome back Mia Hughes — director of Genspect Canada, senior fellow at the Macdonald-Laurier Institute, and one of the sharpest writers on the gender scandal — to dig into the framework she calls “trans as an extreme overvalued belief.” Mia walks us through the history of the overvalued idea, from Carl Wernicke in 1892 to Paul McHugh’s post-9/11 application of the concept to ideologically driven violence, and explains why this psychiatric category — sitting between delusion and obsession — finally makes sense of the trans phenomenon in a way no other diagnosis ever has. We trace the Dutch origins of medical transition in the 1970s, the moment psychiatry “gave up” on these patients, and how WPATH’s 2010 de-psychopathologization statement re-engineered a mental illness into a celebrated identity — triggering, in Mia’s view, the social contagion that followed. I bring my clinical lens to the conversation, exploring transference and countertransference, neuroplasticity, the hijacking of dopamine through “gender euphoria,” and why so many therapists get this wrong in both directions. We close on Mia’s anorexia parallel and what it teaches us about loosening the grip of a pathological belief — gently, indirectly, and without the parent in the line of fire.

@ThrillaRilla369 PUNNNNNG!!

Can anyone spell the sound this makes? 😿

Husband made a blanket fort, and he's currently in there with the 1 and 2 year old boys. I'm informed I'm not allowed in "cause you don't have a weiner."

@FarmGirlCarrie Good lord...

One more drink 🍸 won’t hurt… 🥴

@TexasTamieK That's illegal. Call the police.

I just watched someone throw away the center of a cinnamon roll !!!! The center of the cinnamon roll…. The sheer psychosis is hard to describe

@SteveInmanClips Love a good sport!

@TheUnitedSpot__ Nancy spitting out "You sonofabitch!" always gets me-

This is the smartest thing l've ever seen a cop do

@Cobratate And London is now the rape capital of Europe. I'm glad I got to see it before it was destroyed.

There is probably no bigger crime against humanity than the destruction of the United Kingdom. England in the 90s, where I grew up, was actual paradise. The pub gardens, the white people, oasis with fish and chips. There were full bars and clubs 7 nights a week in every single town let alone city. Always something to do. Even if you were poor, go out with a tenner and have the best time. 10,000 pound night today is 1% of what a 10-pound night was back then. Neighborly people. Safe streets. Even the council estates were safe. You had to live it to understand it. Everything’s been destroyed.

@abcdentminded As long as Hitler, Stalin and Mao are still in the history books, no. If it was possible, the Israelis would have figured it out and gone back in time and taken them all out.

My dad started putting a matchhead-size amount of baking soda in his coffee grounds to counteract the acidity when brewing and it's the best coffee I've ever had

@iluminatibot Everyone around me benefits when I keep my opinions to myself.

Being awake means having to dumb down 98% of your conversations everyday, so you don't sound like a lunatic.

@JayGenXer And during the scamdemic every news outlet in every country said exactly the same thing at the same time in the same order.

You are not allowed to notice that every single Western country opened its borders at the same time, pushed the exact same ideology at the same time, and is now experiencing the same massive demographic shift at the same time. You are also not allowed to notice that almost every one of them somehow has “Liberal” or left-leaning governments in charge while this happens. Just a coincidence bro. Move on. Nothing to see here. The same script, the same timing, the same results — in country after country. Totally organic. Totally random. Definitely not coordinated. Canadians are supposed to pretend this is all just a giant coincidence? Drop your thoughts below — how much longer are we supposed to play dumb? 👇 #cdnpoli

@TheWinkingMinx That kid's going to be 7' tall!

It’s crazy how fast Prince George is growing up! Of course his growth trajectory is totally normal, but it’s so fun to see, for those of us who remember his grandparents getting married, his father being born, and his own parents getting married 😂 Prince George will be a serious, thoughtful, intelligent King, in my opinion - he has the right demeanor and the right temperament

@veritasalways1 Yeah, no. We don't care what you men think.

This man who works for Scope thinks disabled women shouldn’t have the right to same sex intimate care. As long as the man declares himself a woman then that’s good enough for him #scope
