My Green Poetic Heart
Poems and pictures from 2026. Bleeding Hearts Across my bleeding heart I wish I had it from the start The petals, the sepals, the style, It’s a flower I’ll admire a little while A small flower that’s made smiles of so many faces Anywhere they are planted is my favorite of places. Screenshot Sarah’s Salix Sarah’s Salix, say less. We like Salix the best.

NPR just confirmed what folks in recovery have always known: too many doctors still treat addiction patients with suspicion instead of compassion. The AMA classified addiction as a disease in 1957 — but stigma in the exam room is still costing lives. Evidence-based treatment exists. The barrier isn't the science; it's the judgment.

"…what’s truly eye-popping about #OnlyFans is the amount of money in play. Sophie Rain, a self-professed virgin in her early twenties, claims to have earned more than a hundred million dollars on the site. Everyone loves a bootstraps tale—it’s the original American foot fetish—and OnlyFans’ headline-grabbing payouts have taken some of the #stigma out of #sexwork."

Diversity is having a seat at the table. Inclusion is having a voice. Belonging is having that voice be heard.

Privilege is when you think something is not a problem because it's not a problem to you personally.

Opinion: We Need To Destigmatize Pistol Whipping Randos in Laser Tag

As a society, demystification of mental illness and acceptance along with other health conditions is the ultimate goal. However, until health-care systems seriously address the reduced standard of care received by people with mental health problems, the stigma can never be eliminated.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@thejapantimes/116844393981764885
Hm, let's put this in the correct perspective:
Sex worker AGENCIES are collaborating with manga AGENCIES.
👉 It's neither the authors' nor the sex workers' initiative. 👈 :/
While it's certainly a good thing interviews with actual sex workers are carried out, as well as better highlights on the female clientele that's often assumed nonexistent, there's a pretty blatant limitation here. The industry is acting as a filter. Only certain portrayals may actually get through.
And that, sadly, is as biased and dangerous as the mainstream pity and drama pump portrayals.
-
To highlight a particularly worrying detail — the agencies actively discourage the term "sex worker" for an euphemism of their choice.
The term "sex work" isn't capricious.
Stigma works, pretty literally, by enforcing an artificial hierarchy of ““better”” and ““worse””‘ women, both within, without and beyond the sex trade.
"Sex work" was introduced partly to dynamite this distinction, to acknowledge its arbitrariness and to push for solidarity across and over the (nonexistent) boundaries.
When the *industry* however reinforces the line, when the *industry* however insists that "THIS is different, you shouldn't stigmatize us" (hint: it ain't different, but stigma should be burnt down to ashes, aye) — they're implicitly stating that OTHER forms of sex work (the ones they aren't explicitly benefiting from, concretely) ARE deserving of the stigma.
And are thus reinforcing it.
Never mind that's guaranteed to come back to bite them in the asses; much like any other sort of respectability politics.
For the system, it's still the same, and will be treated as such the moment it becomes the least bit convenient.[It's also not just chance that the biggest push to illegalize and sanction street sex work has come all over the world and history from the hands of the “businessmen”; just to drive the point across…]

"Einige (...) entscheiden sich dafür, bestimmte Dokumente nicht einstellen zu lassen."
Wenn jede Behandlung künftig wie geplant über die Hausarztpraxis mit Überweisung / Diagnose gehen muss, wird das leider nur so mittel viel nutzen.
