That didn’t last long. I wasn’t thinking about it any less.
One of my PTSD symptoms is sleepwalking (as I call it) - a dissociated feeling that reality is not real, and is happening at some far distance while I float outside it.

The news has dissociated me. Still there, just adapting.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s GOOD news. But I can’t help reliving the pain of all the hundreds of victims when I hear it. And wonder how many fought back, or reported, and didn’t survive.

That’s because the “white evangelist” craze that started mid-70s was never religious at its core. It was and is a fascist outgrowth of post-WW2 US fascist supporters gone underground.

What popularized it was its utility for creating whites-only religious schools, not piety.
So ppl like Pence and Rubio are not being hypocritical in their own eyes. The central tenet of their Christianity was always white supremacy. Just like the keystone of medieval Christianity was absolute hereditary royal rule.

Paying no mind to Jesus’s teachings is not new.
In fact, it dates back to the classical-era Nicea convocation, in which Roman emperor Constantine “converted” to Christianity by re-inventing it to obscure Jesus-as-example, and to support Roman imperial rule.

This is why I assure you that subbing in Pence for Trump will not free a single child or close a single camp.

Ppl who demand “impeachment vote now oR PeLoSi U lUv KiLlINg BaBeEs” are not talking to you in good faith.

They’re trying to make you stay home in 2020.
There’s a massive professional troll operation going on right now, using witting and possibly unwitting “resistance” figures, to hoodwink you into believing Dems are “just as bad as GOP.”

You won’t fall for that.
Do I think it’s wrong to advocate for impeachment?

Of course not. I advocate for impeachment.

But I don’t amplify or replicate “hate the Dems equally” or “Pelosi evil” voices. Nor should you.

That’s the sucker’s path.

The “focus on positive” is exactly what my PTSD does NOT need.

Feeds the dissociation.

What fixes it? Get in a safe place. Go back to the event. And GRIEVE. Allow rage, grief, sorrow, fear to freely flow.

I’ve been able to do a few moments. Not back yet but it’s coming.
PTSD is an abnormal trauma response, triggered by failure or absence of the original normal trauma processing.

Go to a safe place and FULLY RETURN TO YOUR TRAUMA.

Even if I only can bear it a few seconds, I feel myself unthawing, returning.

I feel safe enough to shop now.
Anger is the top layer.

Try to hang until that is replaced

By grief

The deepest layer is the FEAR

Make sure you’re ready and in a safe place, best alone

But when I can touch the fear, and come out, it lifts the spell.

PERSONAL THREAD: ON #PTSD AND #GUNS

We've seen a number of suicides among survivors of school shootings. Tragedy compounding tragedy. And I wanted to talk about one of the least covered reverberations of #gunviolence: the pain, fear, and anguish that last long past the shooting.
From the age of ten into my late teens, I lived in (or near) an active war zone in Lebanon. That was 4 decades ago. To this day, I wake up with severe night frights, reliving gun battles and experiencing a visceral fear that can't be expressed in words.
Over the years, the intense emotions have subsided, but knowing how scary PTSD can be, I just want to express compassion for those who are going through it, particularly the children and families who have survived mass shootings.

Schiff responds: "My colleagues may think it is okay that the Russians offered dirt on a Democratic candidate as part as what was described as the Russian effort to help the Trump campaign. "
"My colleagues may think it is okay when the president's son was offered a role in the pivotal campaign, he did not call the FBI or refuse the foreign help, no, instead that son said he would "love" that information." - Schiff
"You may think it is okay when the chairman of a presidential campaign offered polling data to someone linked to Russian intelligence - I don't think that's okay," Schiff says of Paul Manafort

Well - it's my birthday today. It's also 3 weeks since we provided @RedbridgeLive with a clear list of emergency needs as disanled, homeless people, that they need to help us meet as per the Care Act. NONE have been met.
@RedbridgeLive So - NO access to disabled bathing facilities suitable to our impairments, for months now. No hairwashing/drying. No support in accessing food, made increasingly impossible by disability, but also complete lack of cooking and refrigeration facilities.
@RedbridgeLive The distance to the car is too much for me, and for Stevie. She last "went out" on 16 January when she was forced, with Sean, to transfer to another Travelodge while I was in hospital. She hasnt seen anyone except me and her brother since.

"#Science" and the "unquestionable truths" of this world have the familiar patterns of #freemason #deceit. #Newton with a #Marrano crypto handsign, #HenryCavendish, the only one who ever proved #gravity in a dodgy experiment, doing a #masonic #hiddenhand. #AlbertMichelson, too.
The greatest scientist (or the greatest fraud?) of all time: #AlbertEinstein, doing a #masonichandshake, or two. Classic "thinking poses", that #freemasons do. I don't trust anything these folks write, given their age-old tendency for intricate deceit and misleading, do you?
Probably nobody heard of this guy, #RabindranathTagore, poet and writer of the anthem of #India, inciting a nationalistic spirit in the country. Winner of a #Nobel literature prize. The classic #hiddenhand of freemasonry. Surprise, here he is with fellow #mason fraud #Einstein.

Significant for a bunch of reasons. Khazaria, in ancient times, lay mostly in western Kazakhstan and southern Russia. Ashkenazi Jews are descendants of that region. Ashkenazi "Jews" comprised the USSR gov't that committed all of the atrocities and today's Zionist gov't in Israel.
It's part of a geopolitical saga. There are great storylines and no commercials. @A_Melikishvili @tengrinewskz
Once upon a time, a king converted the subjects of his kingdom to Judaism. But the Khazar Kingdom didn't last long. @A_Melikishvili
