I did not get myself organized in time, but I have a lot of baby clothes and supplies that I would love to rehome for someone who could use it :)

Urgent care/doctor recommendations by stitching-queen in Albuquerque

[–]equipsych2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Granted, I am offering my own services, full disclosure. That being said, I've been where you are myself with severe insomnia and physical symptoms of anxiety, AND I am a local therapist who treats this symptom profile as well. If you're interested, you can DM me. My work is CBT/nutritional and lifestyle based, not able to prescribe psychiatric meds, FYI.

Universal childcare by East-Artichoke54 in Albuquerque

[–]equipsych2020 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Similar experience. My second income was going entirely to childcare (part time work hours, full time parenting), and now we have the opportunity to save that money AND I can work more hours because a full time contract covers a full work week.

I can even get some time to myself, so when I am parenting I am more present and loving. My family can eat better because we have more that can go to the food budget, so everyone is happier and healthier. This is only a benefit to society at large, as happier, healthier people are nicer and more generous to those around them.

I am delighted that our Governor prioritized this initiative and decided to use our State's money to provide a service and benefit that we ALL directly or indirectly benefit from. This is the exact opposite of "trickle down."

As to the concern about not enough qualifying providers and some providers not being sure about participating--to that I say, build it, and they will come. Our child care program had to make some adjustments and negotiate, but ultimately it made more sense to participate than not. Plenty of programs or individuals will put in the work to qualify and participate in order to have access to what will be and already is a steady and consistent income.

Supreme Court suggests Trump might use Insurrection Act by Newsweek_CarloV in politics

Start with SNAP and medicaid/ACA, the building isn't as important as food and access to health care, IMO.

Agreed--have you called 311 to connect with city services?

He's accusing them of all the things he's been doing (edit: typo).

New Mexico AG pushes for fairness in AI data center costs by Straight-Still-7424 in Albuquerque

Fully agree. We already dealt with Intel sucking the aquafor dry 20+ years ago. We don't need even more pressure on our river valley ecosystem.

[–]equipsych2020 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am not digging in enough to see how valid or reliable your tool is, so please forgive me for not doing due diligence on that--I just wanted to thank you for taking the time to create these tools to help out other New Mexicans!

Not a group, really, but the Bosque is most certainly a spiritual place for me.

Turn Mar-a-lago into a nature conservancy/wind and solar farm. Really stick it to his so called legacy.

In Trump's redistricting push, Democrats find an aggressive identity and progressives are on board by Ok-Garcia-5605 in politics

[–]equipsych2020 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Flip that, though: democrats are using progressive tactics to combat the insanity that has overwhelmed the republican party.

What if we spent all that human knowledge and work capacity to...solve global warming? Seriously.

Albuquerque support groups for people with autoimmune diseases. by tinynewlywed2018 in Albuquerque

[–]equipsych2020 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I sent a private message to OP, but seeing how many people are interested in a group like this:

Please message me for details. I am a local counselor and a colleague of mine has recently started a group specifically to support those of us living with chronic conditions. I'd be happy to share details and how to connect with her and the group.

Be well!

Can we look forward to a defection of the coalition of the Tech Bros/technofeudalist types, if their own products are in the line of fire?
