On the flip side, but very related, if you have something in your life that it upsets you a lot to have people question or mock (whether actually mocking or just you perceive it as mocking), that also makes you very easy to manipulate. You have a giant button on you labeled "push to incite" and by God people are going to push it even if you ask them not to. So, maybe instead, put in the work of recognizing that your emotions are internal things you can control and not things that external forces are MAKING you feel.
This might suck to hear, but if you're a people pleaser that is motivated by praise and avoids disagreements, you are easy to manipulate.
When I was in therapy after surviving years of domestic violence, my therapist had to tell me that my personality was primed for abuse and we needed to work on that so I would be better equipped to see the red flags and respond appropriately in the future.
I'm still working on this, and it's been 8 years. If you tell someone how you want to be treated, what behaviors you don't tolerate in your life, what you're looking for in that relationship, and they react negatively, don't compromise yourself. Just move on.
This one's for all the praise-kink girlies: differentiate, self-actualize, stay sexy

Magawa, a rat trained to detect landmines, retired in 2021 after five years of service. During his career, he helped clear more than 20 football fields’ worth of land in Cambodia, significantly contributing to the safety of local communities.
His work earned him several accolades, including a prestigious award from the UK veterinary charity PDSA.

If anyone is reading this and going "BUT ACCESSIBILITY!! SOME PEOPLE CAN'T WRITE BY HAND!!!" I had a classmate in middle school who wrote all of his assignments on an alphasmart because he had sensory issues about paper.
If you don't know, an alphasmart is basically a keyboard with a tiny screen that displays about 4 lines of text at a time, and a built-in word processor. You can save files locally or on a thumb drive, or you could connect the device with a cable to a printer and print things out. There are more sophisticated versions out there now, but I'm wouldn't be surprised at all if a market for cheap ones to use in classrooms springs up again.
An ex-colleague of mine was complaining to me the other day about the ai problem in her students' papers, and I told her, "Just make your students hand-write them in class. Easy." She looked at me like I was insane and tried to explain how that would never work, but I just said,"That's how we did it for a thousand years. The invention of word processors doesn't erase all that."
To me it seems obvious. Readings are done out of class, handwritten essays are done within it. No more ai papers.

Yo, I'm hoping to move from Texas to Boston in a few years, but I'm afraid of ticks. Do I need to worry?
Not unless you plan to galavant through tall grass regularly. If you follow tick protection procedures you will be a-ok.
#i lived in Massachusetts most of my life and the only time i got a tick in upstate ny#do get any animals you have vaccinated for lime tho#and don't walk through bushes without protection#my brother's friend ended up absolutely CRAWLING with them once doing that

I hope to god folks know using chatgpt and other ai text generators in lieu of an editor sucks ass because not only is it morally dubious to be using ai in the first place but ALSO what tends to happen is that you lose your voice as an author. I don't want to read a fic written in some amalgamous prose caught somewhere between Dickens and Wilde-- I wanna see how YOU would write it!!!
#i still hold that the only good use of gen AI is corporate documents#like resume and cover letter#linkedin posts#that kind of shit#really streamlining my bullshit pipeline

Just like the MC's parkour skills after his seclusion
been reading another chinese gay book and had the amazing, wonderful realization that if you mentally substitute the word "qinggong" for "parkour" the text is elevated to brand new, absolutely fantastic heights
