Piracy is preservation, piracy is morally correct.

Besides if you rip music like this, listen to the pirates song ~1000 times, and then buy a single piece of merch from a musician you'll probably be putting more money in their pocket.

I hate when I say things like "oh I want an ipod classic but with bluetooth so I can use wireless headphones" and some peanut comes in and replies with "so a smartphone with spotify?" No. I want a 160GB+ rectangular monstrosity where I can download every version of every song I want to it and it does nothing except play music and I don't need a data connection and don't have to pay a subscription to not have ads and don't have popups suggesting terrible AI playlists all over the menus.

Gimme the clicky wheel and song titles like "My Chemical Romance- The Black Parade- Blood (Bonus Track)- secret track- album rip- high quality"

unshockingly a lot of parents have kids because they think it's like buying a puppy. the puppy will grow up, sure, but you can just train it out of behaviors you don't like. and then when the kid ultimately turns out to be. you know. an autonomous human being with feelings and their own personality. the parents get upset. anyways a lot of found family fiction tends to reflect this notion and i just think it's interesting because for a genre that purports to be an escape from that particular kind of control it is reflected almost wholesale in the treatment of children as largely props or as vectors for the authors' idea of what sort of children Deserve To Be Saved.

i went through your tags, but could you share more of your thoughts on OCD specifically? anything really

and a specific question, do you think one reason it clusters in families is because children pick up the self-soothing behaviours exhibited by the parents and replicate them? or more broadly, material conditions causing traumas are replicated?

hi! I talked about P-OCD here which follows some of the same patterns as my thoughts on OCD.

I am always a bit hesitant at taking for granted that any diagnosis "clusters in families" and that the only question is why. the two factors you mentioned (picking up self soothing behaviors or replicated material conditions) can lead to some superficial similarities between guardians and children's reaction to stress, yes. but for OCD specifically its association as a diagnosis with the question of abulia or lack of will (an impossibility to resist the obsessions or compulsions) means that it is thoroughly enmeshed with ideas of degeneration theory.

By the end of the 19th century and early 20th century, concepts of heredity and degeneration were taking hold in a number of institutions, partly as a result of the discovery of genetic principles by Gregor Mendel. The French psychiatrist Valentin Magnan (1835–1916) considered OCD a “folie des degeneres” (psychosis of degeneration), indicating cerebral pathology due to defective heredity. Since abulia, or the lack of will or initiative, is seen in neurological states (such as strokes), and a disorder or failure of will was seen as part of the obsessive clinical picture, the argument could be made that OCD is a degenerative disorder of the brain and (based on the family studies), of hereditary origin.

whether an OCD diagnosis funnels you into SSRIs, tryclic antidepressants, atypical antipsychotics, ECT or "simply" CBT then depends heavily on your race, class status, prior hospitalization history, the specific nature of your obsession and compulsion, etc. as always the issue is not that you "can't control yourself" but whether it impedes your productivity, based on a distinction between "higher level mental activities" and "primitive psychological operations" with obvious racist, colonial and ableist implications.

In his highly regarded work, Les Obsessions et la Psychasthenie (Obsessions and Psychasthenia ), Janet proposed that obsessions and compulsions arise in the third (deepest) stage of psychasthenic illness. Because the individual lacks sufficient psychological tension (a form of nervous energy) to complete higher level mental activities (those of will and directed attention), nervous energy is diverted into and activates more primitive psychological operations that include obsessions and compulsions.

Traumatized in Ireland While my Family is Facing Death and Starvation in Gaza

Note: Vetted by:

1. @el-shab-hussein and @nabulsi # 151 on the spreadsheet of Vetted Gaza Fundraisers List]

2. @riding-with-the-wild-hunt Here .

I contemplate the happy faces of people around me here in Ireland and reminisce about the happy normal life my family and I had before the war. A life that turned into a distant memory for us and was replaced by an unending series of horrible nightmares.

Unlike my family in Gaza, people here have access to drinking water, all types of food, electricity, and a roof over their heads. Above all, they are safe, and I cannot help but wonder if they genuinely do appreciate these blessings in their lives enough.

People seem relaxed and laughing wholeheartedly around me in Ireland. I wish I could laugh too, but I am crushed way beyond recovery on the inside. I was evacuated by my Irish college after five months of living the horrors of war in Gaza. I hope you will never know what it feels like to live in constant fear and worry and be horrified by the most sickening and scary nightmares every single night while you are far away from your family in such circumstances.

When did my people in Gaza cease to be human beings worthy and deserving of a normal life? Has it become normal now for my family in Gaza to be starved and killed while the whole world is watching the genocide? If that is the case, then you will have to excuse me if I seek every avenue to bring them to Ireland and start a new normal life like all people here around me.

I was assured by the Irish Reugee Council (IRC) and lawyers in Ireland that there is hope I can reunite with my family in Ireland. In difficult times, it is hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel. For me and my family, you are literally our light and hope for a better life.

can a catgirl and dogthing really be friends? or maybe even more...?

[revengesthings]

guys am i crazy for when i want to read a "joel x reader" or a "arthur morgan x reader" i don't want an age gap? like please let me be old and also be with an old guy. age gaps just lowkey turn me off. maybe it's because of the character? like c!joel would never date anyone way younger, freshly 18, or a minor... and c!arthur morgan? okay I understand maybe an age gap for the time... maybe. but he wouldn't just fuck an 18 year old, that seems out of his character. idk man. just doesn't settle right within me. i want to be an older woman, maybe a single mom, maybe a widow, and have joel miller romance me. none of that "your dad doesn't approve of me cause we're the same age" stuff. guys am i crazy? maybe i need to get laid.

As a kid learning about the holocaust, I never understood how people could let Nazis rise to power. But now I’m watching it happen in real time.
