that is super weird! it’s something to write a story about things and all, to get your facts right and from the source but that pestering bullshit loses the reason you do your job, i feel like anyways 🤷🏻‍♀️

Banning TikTok would apparently be one of the best things to do for mental health.

> TikTok recommends self-harm and eating disorder content to some users within minutes of joining the platform, according to a new report published Wednesday by the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH).

> The new study had researchers set up TikTok accounts posing as 13-year-old users interested in content about body image and mental health. It found that within as few as 2.6 minutes after joining the app, TikTok's algorithm recommended suicidal content. The report showed that eating disorder content was recommended within as few as 8 minutes.

> Over the course of this study, researchers found 56 TikTok hashtags hosting eating disorder videos with over 13.2 billion views.

It has been fantastic that he's spent almost all of his time outside of the state campaigning for a bunch of people who lost their midterms instead of doing active harm here. But he still wants tax cuts for the people who should be paying the most and stricter birth control and abortion laws than Sharia...

This is not part of his announcement of a behavioral health package (which is primarily adjustments to the budget year that starts July 1, 2023), but his budget does seem not-bad in terms of behavioral health (it's pretty awful in my view in many other policy areas, and if he gets all his proposed tax cuts we may see future budget cuts hitting behavioral health).
