RIP Sigmund Freud, you would have loved the Twinyards.

Aaron, who fell in love with the spitting image of his mother. And Andrew, who's gay despite everything.

Good grief.

Broke:

Belle has Stockholm syndrome because she falls in love with the Beast, her kidnapper.

Woke:

Stockholm syndrome was coined to slander a woman who had been in a hostage situation but openly criticized the poor police response which recklessly put her in more danger and escalated the violence. She was then belittled and discredited publically by the police for this.

So. Yeah. Maybe Belle does have Stockholm syndrome actually.

You are thrown into a weird world by this machine. Can you escape from it?

Grading is a Scam (and Motivation is a Myth) | A Professor Explains

Grading is a scam and motivation is a myth. Those sound like bold words, but today we're going to dive down the rabbit hole and prove, once and for all, that our current state of schooling (and of...well..._everything_) is rotten to its core. 

...that's all a little dramatic, but that really is the goal of this video. Our schools are broken, our workplaces are broken, and our society is broken...and it's all because of bad psychology and bad economics.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but

👏Narcissist is not a code word for abuser👏

👏 Sociopath is not a code word for abuser👏

👏 Psychopath is not a code word for murderer👏

Not every shitty person is shitty because of a disorder that pop psychology likes to demonise. Slapping a label on every shitty person out there is ableist toward the NPD/ASPD sufferers who are just trying to get by. Stop it.

Here’s the full version of Dr. Goodfriend’s explanation of why Rose Tyler is the most important companion to the Doctor and why he’s in love with her. You’ll have to open the images to read the full text.

This is part of a book called Doctor Who Psychology and this particular chapter is by Dr. Wind Goodfriend who is a social psychologist and university lecturer who has written multiple textbooks of her own, including one on intimate relationships. Needless to say, if anyone knows who the most impactful companion the Doctor ever had was, it would be her. There’s also other aspects of the Doctor’s attraction to Rose explained in this chapter, but I felt this was the most important.

That evening the men were practicing archery on the green. Bill Door had carefully ensured a local reputation as the worst bowman in the entire history of toxophily; it had never occurred to anyone that putting arrows through the hats of bystanders behind him must logically take a lot more skill than merely sending them through a quite large target a mere fifty yards away.

It was amazing how many friends you could make by being bad at things, provided you were bad enough to be funny.

parental responsibilities: to prepare their child for independent life, teach them all the skills they might need and offer support until the person can confidently independently thrive in human society

abusive parents: not only are we doing none of that but we are telling the child its their fault, gatekeeping the info and resources and claiming the child is just too stupid to learn or thrive in any situation. And in case the child, despite us, manages to strive for independecy, we'll make it as hard as possible, make them too sick to do it, or guilt them into believing its a sin to live independently from us

in the eyes of cats is so terrifying to me in so many ways I cannot reasonably explain it.

So many years of human culture gone; technological advancements gone. Children can be taken away from their mothers. Human intellect is reduced and humans are treated as pets witch even of most are treated well is I still don't think is a good thing.

I might be overthinking a silly haha but MAAAN...

C: its dystopian for a reason!

The sisters were so lucky that their mom's owner kept them because I know some households give kittens up for adoption...
