Lmao, what?

I complained in the “other” box that they did include for a different question lol

A similar debate with my partner is how I’m found out I’m colorblind lol

Bernie should get “U.S. President” tattooed on himself and then just stroll into the white house and take over

Once, in New York City, I haggled the opposite direction for fun, because I was annoyed about being harassed

Guy was trying to sell me a watch so I asked
“How much?”

For you? $15

“Nah, too cheap” I replied

uhh… O-okay, $20!

“Hmm, how about $25?”

okay yes yes, $25!

“No. $40”

okayyy good deal $40 for you!!

“No way, that’s too expensive”- I turned around and started walking away

huh? Oh- no! $20! $15! Ten! F-five dollars for you!

I’m pretty sure the target audience for American Dad is teenagers?

Yeah, it seems most people still on reddit prefer the newer mobile UI. I never used one of the ‘fancy’ modern reddit apps, and I’m lowkey scared for the inevitable switch I’ll have to make when Eternity finally dies. All the other FOSS apps left have a very ‘iOS’ feel to them that I can’t stand

ASPD is far too broad to be worth treating on it’s own. If someone struggles with impulse control and emotion dysregulation, sure, those symptoms are treatable, and treating them is likely to improve the person’s quality of life.

However, most people with ASPD meet criteria because they break the law, lie about it (duh), and don’t feel bad about it (why would they if they did it on purpose?). This should not be pathologized, and doesn’t need treatment.

I don’t even believe in free will, so I expect you’re right that we won’t come to an understanding on this lol 😅

You can’t change society without changing the people first.

This is neoliberal propaganda

I am a therapist and I meet diagnostic criteria for ASPD.

The diagnosis itself exists to pathologize the individual to remove blame from the system that fosters this behavior.

The DSM is a joke

The point is more why are we treating the symptom rather than the disease.

Hell yeah, great point

People who take advantage of others are manipulators and by definition that’s anti-social. Why is the system so broken that we can’t imprison scammers?

What the fuck, how is that your conclusion?

The “disease” is the lack of safety nets- a lack of education, resources, opportunities. “Anti-social” is a copout term to justify the status quo- to pathologize what are ultimately systemic failures manifested in the behavior of individuals. The disease is capitalism, and imprisoning people for “anti-social” behaviors is absolutely the wrong answer.

Like AI Horde?

What’s a protest voter?

There’s always xcancel. Does that not solve most people’s concern?

Therapists recommend limiting news consumption, seeking community support, and focusing on areas of personal control as ways to cope with these heightened political anxieties.

My recommendations breaks rule 6

This format doesn’t work on Eternity. Eternity >!does them like this!<. Does this way not work for people not on Eternity?

Usually the goal of saying that is simply to hurt your feelings and/or establish themselves as both above you and distinct from you

If it’s said by someone you care about or have to regularly spend time around, it might be worth addressing, though otherwise it’s probably best to ignore/block

If it’s the former, deciding how to address it requires first identifying your priorities between:

• maintaining the relationship
• maintaining your dignity/self respect
• achieving an objective

There’s a DBT worksheet series for this that I’ve used a lot, personally, and have found super helpful

Does this mean no one speaks in your dreams?
