On this world mental health day I’m reminding people that our brains are in our bodies and it’s weird how we separate out mental health. And weirder that we have a mental health system that measures success of treatment by people being able to work in a capitalist system.

My small rural town (actually small - like pop. 2,500) still has a local paper and the weekly OpEds are a back and forth between local maga and local dems. It’s kind of awesome to see progressives speaking out and yet frustrating because Dem candidates continually ignore rural America.

Public executions are an extension of a culture that chants lock her up. And one that has no problem locking humans in cells and letting them out to work for twelve cents an hour. It’s not just Hegseth. Our whole criminal justice system is perverse.
