French parliament to probe psychological effects of TikTok on children.

French lawmakers have approved the creation of a commission of enquiry to examine the psychological effects of TikTok on children and teenagers.

The video platform is particularly prized by youngsters.

It's always disturbing to me how many #homeless people support #trump which you think would never happen, why would someone with nothing support a manic billionaire?

Unfortunately delusional thinking is very prevalent. Homeless tend to be three main groups-

1. #mentalhealth issues that nobody helped.
2. #disabled folks, older, with no family or support.
3. #addiction related.

It's really easy to manipulate the first two groups.

That is all Trump does.

As much as I struggle with my #mentalhealth now, it is infinitely better than it used to be.

Not knowing I had #tourettes until I was 27, nor any of my other problems for sure, it was impossible for me to #cope without being on something.

Self medicating.

I struggled with #addiction my entire twenties. My life didn't start until I was 30, as there was much healing to do after the discoveries.

I'm just glad I got a chance to live. Most don't after a decade of drugs.
