Nick's so far under the bus that they might as well change the oil while they're under there.

Okay, because I'm a bit of a masochist and I have adblockers...

I'm going to count how many times James throws Nick under the bus:

@2:40 – 'This fell upon Nick as well, as a non-binary person on the ace spectrum, they wanted to include asexuality and non-binary representation to our videos. But because Nick's experience is not universal – There is no universal experience – people felt that we were delegitimizing their own experiences because we focused on Nick's.' (The reason we were acephobic was because we (meaning Nick) didn't think other ace people had problems and when it was pointed out to us by The Ace Couple that ace people did, in fact, face discrimination and conversion therapy, we (meaning James) accused them of homophobia and sicced their followers on them.)

@6:38 – 'The work Nick and I were doing on the channel...' (Because Nick was here too! Not just me!)

@10:46 – 'I was much more interested in the production of the videos than the writing of them, at this point. So after three or four videos, I brought Nick on as a main writer for the channel. The idea is that they would write the vast majority of the scripts. I would film, voice, and edit the videos and we'd split the money that came in.'(Nick was the main writer for the channel! In case you forgot...)

@14:40 – 'And then my mom died... and I became completely useless. I couldn't think straight, at all, so Nick had to completely take over writing duties.'(DID I MENTION NICK WAS THE MAIN WRITER. ALSO MY MOM DIED; FEEL SORRY FOR ME)

@19:44 – 'When Nick got back, he believed the script needed a first page rework. This was also when he told me he was going to be moving back to Ontario permanently soon as he wanted to live closer to family and live in a bigger city with more opportunities. This was a punch to the gut for me. We'd been living together since 2015 and had become quite dependent on each other. I felt like there was no way I could make this movie without him.'(We couldn't make the movie we promised because SOMEONE DECIDED TO MOVE and since I'm co-dependent on him, I moved with him and screwed up everything. Oopsie.)

@26:32 – 'But by accepting as many sponsors as we did, which became very important when Nick and I started living apart and suddenly had two rents to pay, we ended up needing to produce even more videos. Which, along with the work on Telos and making sure everything was okay with my dad while living thousands of kilometers away meant I had even less time for writing – putting more stress on Nick and leading to even more copy and pasting from me.' (See what you did, Nick?! We have to pay TWO rents now and we need to make even MORE videos. I'm not creepily co-dependent on my asexual ex-roommate at all!)

@32:50 – 'I know what misinformation had made its way into our past videos. That was not something we intended; in some cases it was information I was told by people I considered experts. In other cases it was information that we had researched. In other cases it was things that Nick had learned in university.'(Nick told me some of this stuff! ((which is fair because NICK ADMITTED HE DOESN'T DO RESEARCH)) In other cases it was because I assumed I knew what happened because I'm the smartest person I know so of course Lesbians had it easier! I just forgot that Radcliffe Hall's books were banned and destroyed because of that head injury I talked about earlier.)

And here's an honorable mention where the smug “I'm smarter than you” BS comes to visit:

'To those who say I plagiarized the plot from the novel Final Girl Support Group by Grady Hendrix – Read the book. It's nothing like the plot of the movie. And 'The Final Girl' is a trope in horror movies so if using the Final Girl trope is plagiarism then basically everyone who's made a slasher movie since Texas Chainsaw Massacre owes the Toby Hooper estate some money.'

So, much like how James doesn't understand why people aren't upset at him because of citation issues, he doesn't understand that it's not the fact that he's using the 'Final Girl' trope... it's the fact that he stated the book as a favorite of his and then... suddenly he's writing a movie about the aftermath of the Final Girl. And given the plagiarism, it can not be taken in good faith.

First off, if you just google 'First Final Girl', it just says Texas Chainsaw Massacre is one of the earliest examples. Another possibility for the 'First Final Girl' was actually Black Christmas which was released the same day in Canada so it is literally tied.

Secondly; the final girl trope is not required for slasher movies. One of the first 'proto-slasher' movies was actually Psycho so there were a few good decades between that and Texas Chainsaw Massacre. (I could try and make a case that Lila Crane should count as a Final Girl; maybe even Mrs. Bates/Norman as a subversion... but I'm not that invested or interested.)

So... James was true to form, he just wanted to be a smug asshat and try and seem smart over something easily googled.

Historically Insignificant - Training Grounds

As always, the video can be found here!

After finding a photo of some fire fighters inside one of the houses, I noticed that the background was actually the former Royal Connaught Hotel in Hamilton, Ontario. The hotel was converted into high end condominiums about a decade ago but let's take a moment to see what it looked like before the renovations!

Today we will be exploring a couple of abandoned houses side by side. Both homes were built in the Tudor style in the 1920s. The first home was most recently used as a hair spa and massage therapy clinic. Its neighbour was used as an office for the Ontario firefighters union.

The properties were bought for redevelopment and the current proposal suggests the homes will be replaced by a 7-storey apartment building with 141 new rental units.

Relax, I’m From The Future

A conversation with writer-director Luke Higgingson

Relax, I’m From The Future was a surprise fav of mine at last year’s Fantasia Fest, and it’s finally getting a theatrical release! The movie is a punk rock sci-fi comedy with a lot of wit and even more heart starring Rhys Darby (Flight of the Conchords, Our Flag Means Death) and Gabrielle Graham (Possessor, Twenties) as an unlikely duo trying, sort of, not really, to save the world. I got a chance to speak with writer-director Luke Higginson a few weeks ago about all the work that went into his debut feature. Read our (lightly edited for clarity) conversation below!

Tell me, how do you describe this movie to other people?

It’s very much my attempt to work through my anxieties about the future and the state of the world in a way that might bring me some comfort without eliminating the very real cynicism I have about it. [My short film in 2013] started as a simple joke idea — the idea of an unprepared timetraveler — and then when people sort of liked that film more than I expected, I thought about how I would make that meaningful enough to expand it. And as I noodled on that, Trump got elected, and Covid happened, a lot of terrible things happened… It really became a source of therapy for me to write this ridiculous film and pump my anxieties into it. That’s really where I found what the film was about.

There is an incredible dynamic between Rhys and Gabrielle — how did you work your story with them?

Gabriel Graham was the first person that I knew I wanted to cast [as Holly]. I saw Brandon Cronenberg’s Possessor, and she had such presence, but I didn’t know if she was funny, so I watched Twenties… it was clear she had comic chops.

For Casper [Rhys Darby’s character], you have to be on board with following him even when he does some questionable things. And also, he’s on screen for so much of the movie that it had to be someone with real energy, especially in a script that’s mostly people talking to each other. There weren’t a lot of people that I felt fit that. Then when his name was floated, it was immediately like omg holy shit that would be amazing! My producers at Wango films are phenomenally gifted at getting scripts in hands. I spent a couple of days building up a dossier of arguments for why he should do the film. And when we got on the call and he was just like “Hey, so I just wanted to meet ya and make sure you were ok with me doing this movie”, I was blown away. He had this tiny little window where we could get him for 15 shooting days and he agreed to come up [to Hamilton, Ontario] and do it. I’m still pinching myself about that, it was amazing.

In terms of working with them, because of that window of time, there was no time for rehearsal. There was barely time for Rhys to learn his lines. I got one hour of Rhys and Gabby in a room together before the first day of shooting… Something clicked, it was like Oh it’s Casper and Holly, they’re hanging out!

The scene in the playground — where the two of them are sharing a bottle of booze and talking — was incredibly cold, absurdly cold. And they were both very underdressed for that weather. They were both improving and bouncing off of each other. That was the scene where I felt like ah there’s something special between these two in particular. It was cool, it was really special, both of them are just amazing.

Wait, the shooting schedule was only 15 days?

We had Rhys for 15 days, and we shot for 18 days, but Rhys is in almost all of the movie.

How did the music in the movie play into writing your story and how did you manage to clear all those songs?

I knew a ton of people in the Toronto indie-rock punk scene and I always knew that if I ever got to make a movie, I knew all these great songs that no one knows. I listened to a lot of that stuff writing the film — Holly being part of the punk scene was very important to the character. I gave [Gabrielle] a playlist of a bunch of 70s CBGB stuff, she watched a documentary on Poly Styrene. That really embodied the vibe of the music. I wanted it to be all Toronto music on the soundtrack, it’s basically a split between songs from bands that I played with or went to see back in the day and bands that are still operating right now. The big coup was getting Pup involved, which was really exciting. They didn’t have to say yes at all, but they really were big fans of Rhys and [because of Covid] I think they were a little itchy to get on stage in front of a bunch of people. We got to use a few of their songs, as well as Metz and Bad Waitress and a couple of other great bands.

In terms of the licensing side what I didn’t expect as a problem was that many of those bands no longer exist and never had any kind of official existence in terms of paper work or legality, so I perhaps foolishly did not see that coming as a problem. Anagram, Sailboats Are White, Lunchmeat — all great bands that I love, but [licensing their songs] was a trickier thing than I thought it was gonna be.

What are some of the challenges or joys that you encountered in the editing room, putting this thing together?

The editing process was long, longer than I expected. My baby was 6 months old when we started shooting, which was a real challenge for me and my wife. I literally edited the film with my baby next to me, so it took a while. But really, it was about matching the film to Rhys’s rhythm. When we [cast] Rhys, who’s one of the best improvisers comedically in the world, I knew that [for the edit] I was gonna want both sides of the conversations he has with Gabby. So any time that Rhys is talking to another person, there’s two cameras going at the same time and that really allowed us to use the little moments of inspiration and improvisation. If Rhys gives you a piece of gold, you know that you have it covered. That was big, I think both in the shooting and in the editing.

Time travel can be a tricky narrative device! How did you build the rules of this universe?

I knew right off the bat that I was neither capable nor interested in doing something scientifically “accurate”, but you also don’t want the audience to feel like you don’t give a shit. It has to feel like there’s an internal consistency. So my guiding principle was that rules of time travel are going to be what serves the humour and the story, and then once I have those things, to make sure it’s internally consistent. It actively subverts what I felt was the most common tropes — like in Terminator, you have to be naked to travel through time, in my movie you have to have no skin showing of any kind. In most time travel movies you can go back and forth, in mine you can only go back. When drafting it out, I went with the ideas that I found funny, then once I had the beats, I worked very hard to make sure it was internally consistent within that.

What was screening your film at Fantasia like?

It was incredible, I can’t say enough good things about Fantasia. I wanna shout out programmer Carolyn Mauricette, who saw a very rough cut of the film without any of the sound mix or special effects. She saw it, she got it, she connected to it. It just meant so much, that phase of the editing process, you’re very emotionally fragile, you have no idea if you’ve made something that works or not, and that was such a vote of confidence.

What are you hoping people take away from this?

I am genuinely very excited for people to see Rhys do this. I feel like he uses some muscles that you don’t get to see him use normally, he’s such a star. And I think Gabriel Graham is incredibly slept on, like she’s a successful actor but I think way more people should know her. I’m gonna sit in on a bunch of screenings — I never need to watch the movie again, but I do love watching the audience watch it, and there are some moments in the back third of the movie that I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of hearing an audience react to.

I didn’t even ask you about Julian Richings!

He’s incredible! I got him [cast as Percy] by recording a video begging him to be in the movie because he’s a legend! I first saw him in Hard Core Logo when I was a teenager, he’s so captivating. So ya, I recorded a shameless message and sent it to him, and luckily he is the sweetest man in the world, just the easiest person in the world to work with — I can’t say enough nice things about him.

I think this movie has a lot for a lot of different crowds of people — you got the gays, you got the nerds, you got the horror fans -

Those are all my people! Those are my favourite type of people!

I’m excited for people to see it!

Me too!

I am going to have to take a little time away from tumblr. (Hopefully just a couple days)

I don't have enough money for my pain/ptsd/mood medication, and don't want to act or say shit I don't mean.

I'm I'm a bad mental place, and don't know how long until I can get my medications.

Seeing things on here (food) that I'm nearly addicted to, while feeling like such shit, when I can't afford a bag of milk or medication the rest of this, and all of next month triggers bad feelings from my bpd.

I have borderline personality disorder, and it's hell to deal with on the best days.

The only thing I can do when I'm in a spell is recluse because I'm not... I'm basically a broken human.

The specific way my combination of disorders come together, basically make it so everything about me is broken in one way or another, and that I'll never be able to maintain, or have relationships or friendships or really any human connection.

I am invalid

Now, not everyone with bpd is this way. Most aren't.

There's over 117 different ways it can present, as well as the fact I have multiple other disorders intertwined with it.

I have done 12 years of all different types of therapies, and workshops. I have all the skills needed, but one disorder will trigger the next, and the next, and the next, and suddenly I don't know what day it is or what happened the last two.

I'm on a large amount of antidepressants, to the point every doctor I see questions it.

300mg effexor

275mg lamotragine

300mg welbutrin

1mg resperidone

For depression only.

I have also been prescribed medicinal Marijuana (in Ontario - legal) and that's the one I can't afford.

That one helps with pain, depression, c-ptsd, and panic disorder w/ agoraphobia. (Some of my dx's) this is the one I can't afford this month. It's the one that carries most of the weight.

Honestly the only reason I didn't get shock therapy is because I needed a ride home, and didn't have one, and couldn't afford a cab.

Please remember it's the specific combination of symptoms of 6+ psychiatric diagnoses. Very, very, very few people with any of my dxs will be affected this way.

People with bpd get a bad rap of being bad people. Bpd is basically like our mind is as sensitive as a 3rd degree burn - the slightest interaction, can cause a big reaction in our brain that we can't always control. It doesn't mean we don't try. It means we learn when to pull ourselves away to calm down.

Adding for luck.

If you're able to help with cost of medication, my PayPal is: https://www.paypal.me/thatguyyates

Nothing that comes in will be going to food/groceries until medication cost is covered (unless specified)

Currently at $75/$205 but a service fee is coming out soon

(Not all medications or health issues have been added. Not all are needed in here)

Advanced Psychological Testing Services in Ontario

In an age where mental health awareness is at its peak, understanding the intricate workings of the human mind has never been more crucial. Advanced psychological testing services are pivotal in diagnosing, understanding, and treating various psychological conditions. In Ontario, these services are evolving rapidly, providing invaluable insights that foster mental wellness and improve quality of life. This blog delves into the significance, processes, and benefits of advanced psychological testing services available in Ontario.

Understanding Psychological Testing

The Importance of Advanced Psychological Testing

Accurate Diagnosis: Advanced psychological tests provide precise and comprehensive evaluations that aid in accurately diagnosing mental health disorders. Conditions such as ADHD, depression, anxiety, and learning disabilities can be identified early, leading to timely intervention.

Personalized Treatment Plans: The insights gained from Psychological Assessment Ontario allow mental health professionals to develop tailored treatment plans. Understanding the unique psychological profile of an individual ensures that therapeutic interventions are customized to meet specific needs.

Monitoring Progress: Psychological assessments are not just for diagnosis but also for monitoring the progress of treatment. Regular testing can help track improvements, adjust treatment strategies, and ensure that therapeutic goals are being met.

Educational and Occupational Guidance: For students and professionals, psychological testing can provide guidance on learning styles, career choices, and workplace accommodations. It helps in identifying strengths and areas that need support, fostering personal and professional growth.

The Process of Psychological Testing

The process of psychological testing typically involves several steps, each designed to gather comprehensive information about an individual’s mental health.

Initial Consultation: The process begins with an initial consultation where the psychologist gathers background information, understands the concerns, and determines the need for specific tests.

Selection of Tests: Based on the initial consultation, the psychologist selects appropriate tests. These may include standardized questionnaires, cognitive tests, projective tests, and observational methods.

Administration of Tests: The selected tests are administered in a controlled environment. This may involve paper-and-pencil tests, computer-based assessments, or interactive tasks. The administration is usually conducted over several sessions to ensure accuracy and reliability.

Scoring and Interpretation: After the tests are administered, the results are scored and interpreted. Psychologists use their expertise to analyze the data, considering the individual’s history, current functioning, and specific circumstances.

Feedback Session: The results are then discussed with the individual (and sometimes with family members or other professionals) in a feedback session. The psychologist explains the findings, provides a diagnosis if applicable, and discusses recommendations for treatment or further assessment.

Types of Psychological Tests

Cognitive Tests: These tests measure intellectual abilities, memory, problem-solving skills, and other cognitive functions. Examples include IQ tests, memory tests, and executive function assessments.

Personality Assessments: These tests explore personality traits, emotional functioning, and behavioral patterns. Commonly used assessments include the MMPI (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory) and the Rorschach Inkblot Test.

Neuropsychological Tests: These tests assess brain function and are often used in cases of brain injury, neurological disorders, or developmental conditions. They evaluate cognitive abilities, motor skills, and sensory functions.

Behavioral Assessments: These tests observe and analyze behavior in specific contexts, often used for diagnosing conditions like autism, ADHD, and conduct disorders.

The Benefits of Advanced Psychological Testing in Ontario

Ontario boasts a range of advanced Psychological Assessment Ontario that leverage the latest research and technology. These services offer numerous benefits:

Holistic Understanding: Comprehensive assessments provide a holistic understanding of an individual’s mental health, considering various aspects of functioning. Early Intervention: Early diagnosis through advanced testing allows for prompt intervention, preventing the escalation of psychological issues. Enhanced Well-being: Accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment plans lead to improved mental health and overall well-being. Support for Families: Psychological testing not only supports individuals but also provides valuable insights for families, helping them understand and support their loved ones better.

The Long-Term Benefits of Regular Talk Therapy

In today’s fast-paced world, finding time for self-care can be challenging. However, investing in regular talk therapy can offer profound, long-term benefits for mental well-being. Here’s how engaging in consistent talk therapy can lead to a more fulfilling and balanced life:

Enhanced Emotional Resilience : Regular talk therapy helps individuals build emotional resilience. Through ongoing sessions, clients learn to understand and manage their emotions more effectively. Therapists provide tools and strategies for coping with stress, anxiety, and other emotional challenges. This ongoing support fosters a greater sense of control and stability in the face of life's ups and downs.

Improved Self-Awareness : One of the most significant advantages of talk therapy is the increased self-awareness it fosters. By exploring thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in a safe, non-judgmental environment, individuals gain valuable insights into their patterns and triggers. This heightened self-awareness can lead to personal growth and a deeper understanding of oneself.

Better Relationship Dynamics : Regular therapy can significantly improve interpersonal relationships. As individuals work through their personal issues and gain self-awareness, they often find it easier to communicate effectively and empathize with others. This improvement in communication and empathy can enhance both personal and professional relationships, leading to a more supportive and harmonious social network.

Effective Stress Management: Stress management is another key benefit of talk therapy. Therapists can help clients develop healthy coping mechanisms and stress-reduction techniques. Over time, individuals who engage in regular therapy are better equipped to handle stress, which can improve overall quality of life and reduce the risk of stress-related health issues.

Enhanced Problem-Solving Skills: Talk therapy often involves working through challenges and finding solutions to personal dilemmas. This process can enhance problem-solving skills, as individuals learn to approach issues with a clearer, more structured mindset. This skill set is transferable to various aspects of life, from work to personal goals.

Increased Life Satisfaction :The cumulative effect of regular talk therapy is often a greater sense of life satisfaction. As individuals work through their issues, develop coping strategies, and build emotional resilience, they frequently report feeling more content and fulfilled. This increased satisfaction can lead to a more positive outlook on life and a greater sense of overall well-being.

Long-Term Mental Health Benefits: Consistent therapy can help prevent the recurrence of mental health issues. By addressing problems early and developing long-term strategies for managing them, individuals are better prepared to handle future challenges. This proactive approach can lead to sustained mental health improvements over time.

In Conclusion

Regular talk therapy offers numerous long-term benefits, from enhanced emotional resilience to improved relationship dynamics. By investing in consistent therapy sessions, individuals can foster personal growth, develop effective coping strategies, and ultimately enjoy a more balanced and satisfying life. Whether you're dealing with specific issues or seeking general self-improvement, the ongoing support of talk therapy can be a powerful tool for achieving lasting mental well-being.
