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.

Breaking bad was actually only about the evils of the American health care system for 2-3 episodes max and after that it was about how a man will be so evil he’d rather start a meth empire and kill people and enact torture on his wife/son stand-in than accept help from someone who offered to give him a job with full healthcare

Garage: Bad Dream Adventure (1999)

Garage is a surreal and nightmarish point & click adventure inspired by the works of Carl Jung, developed by Kinotrope and published by Toshiba-EMI in 1999.

Garage - This weird machine is said to create a bizarre dark world by working on the subject's subconscious mind.

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.

maybe there will be a reveal that like they have something on milchick or that he’s making 17 million dollars a year or something but genuinely i hope he just enjoys this. this is his skill and this is the one (1) job in which he can put it to use. he clocks in every day to middle manage the torment nexus and suffers more than christ but at the end of each day he finds that the torment nexus has a certain je ne sais quoi

It's always funny how the kids talk back to Bruce when literally no one else – maybe Clark, but more in a gentle and slightly concerned way – would ever deared, it's all "Yes, sir" and "No, sir" and hustling to execute his orders because you can't argue with The Batman, can you? But the kids will be "Bruce I swear to god, you're insufferable today" cause he complained about them being 3 minutes late to the evening meeting and that his coffee is 1.5 degree too cold than he likes it and he'll frown and look all dejected and say "I know, I'm sorry. I need to do better. You deserve better."

And that's Batkids' true superpower.

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.

i really can not stand the “fandom is so fun we’re all just projecting and making shit up” thing. because no i actually deeply admire the canon of my favorite media and all the intention and care and craft put into it. we are not the same.
