Picture this all-too familiar scenario: You've been travelling across the internet wastelands, dragging your feet across a barron digital void of empty information, a spiritually draining technological labyrinth . You open up your home page, to see a shining light upon your bell, a beacon of hope. Someone has repsonded to you, someone cared enough to hear what you have to say to the world. Even if they disagree, they have a shared interest in your deep personal thoughts. Your heart is filled with joy, the dopamine rushes through your brain in excitement. "What could it be?" you wonder. But your hopes are in complete vain, for what lies before you has turned out to be monstrous illusion.

It was nothing. No, worse than nothing. Heinous noise, a mirage of interest that exploited your intellectual loneliness only to give way to a screeching bunch of nonsensical irrelevant information that has pulled you further down in your descent towards eternal irreversible madness. You've seen it before, you know this sting like an old friend. But you had to keep coming to it, over and over again, like a hopeless romantic, an addict that doesn't know when to quit. Pingspam is like a virus, a disease on our world and on our minds. Pingspam is a digital molotov, a fire of frustration, a sucker punch to our sense of novelty. Ping spammers wreak havoc at a subliminal level, a force that appears subtle at first but builds to a crescendo, wreaking havoc on society. It must be fought tooth and nail.

Arrest ping spammers.

Straight cis people are so political and always in our faces! I mean, after all, cis straight people should not be in a family movie — look at their divorce and domestic abuse rates. Think of the children!

They're cute, deadly, and HUNGRY! They're unstoppable

@mithrandir get that bag xueen

The sudden death of a 35-year-old man only became more shocking when his autopsy revealed a live baby bird—potentially swallowed as part of an occult fertility ritual—lodged in his throat.

Anand Yadav, of Chhattisgarh, India collapsed at home after feeling dizzy and fainting shortly after taking a bath, Hindustan Times reported. He was rushed to a nearby hospital, where doctors were initially puzzled about the cause of death.

Foid films landwhales with normie guys. Says look how confident American women are and how respectful American guys are, look he opened the door for her. It doesn't matter how much you weight, that the confidence is the most important thing.

So women outside US looking at Taylor Swift and all other gorgeous women in Burgerstan and be like nope I don't want to be like them, I want to be like burgers landwhales with fit bfs

In west Europe that shit is so normalised now that foids can approach guys that weight 2 times less than them and then get angry when they get rejected

Full disclosure: I am a leftist in the USA and while I don't have an issue with the rich or ultra-rich existing, I do have an issue with people existing in abject poverty in the richest country on the planet. (41)

Can you give an example of someone in America living in abject poverty?Medicaid, food stamps, section 8 housing, free k-12 education. Plus local and state programs for internet and phone subsidies. Unless you are mentally unwell and not able to manage these programs, you should never be in abject poverty. (-11)

No. Inequality is the killer of Capitalism. People forget the real value of money is not living a more comfortable life; it's power. When a small group of people are able to hoard all the money, it means they hoard all the power. When that happens their immediate next step is to close the door behind themselves to prevent other people from getting power, followed by disenfranchising all of the people who could threaten them. This naturally creates an authoritarian state (Socialism, Fascism, Feudalism, etc. are all different flavours of authoritarianism) where a small crowd that thins to a single person who is given control over the destiny and freedom of every person in the state.It's not about giving everyone a decent standard of living; that's a consequence of them having power. It's about keeping the different levels and layers of society functioning and competing to keep things in balance. (134)

This… makes no sense. You get richer by trading/leveraging others' strong qualities while lending them yours - in good faith (do it in bad faith and people will stop trading with you - and you will fall behind no matter the initial edge). This is the opposite of "closing door behind yourself once you get rich". If your theory made slightest sense people would never get rid of slavery, for example. Nor would developed countries invest in underdeveloped ones (that themselves become developed as a result, mind you). (-17)

Tax them properly. Solved. (7)

But then who will we blame for all our problems if not the rich? (0)

I am wondering where all this poverty is. Not only do I not see it, ever, but we have vast welfare programs that provide all the necessities and more. Our welfare state provides food, clothing, spending money, housing, healthcare, and probably a bunch of other stuff I am completely unaware of. So how is it we have poverty and where is all this poverty?I think the left has mental problems. They suffer from a sick sense of envy, hatred, and greed. Those problems are focused on anyone they currently deem to have too much regardless of how much the individual worked for what they have. They are authoritarian and want to decide how much money an individual can accumulate. They also want to decide how much everyone is afforded regardless of how little they work. They would literally give able bodied people free everything even if those able bodied people sat on their asses all day long and did nothing. (-6)

It's the lower income working class where the poverty is at. Due to rising costs in housing and health insurance, middle income earners are slipping into poverty as well. Car insurance and home insurance rising costs are going to bring even more workers into poverty. I would say the high number of adults who don't have kids or are not into marriage/dating are often victims of working class poverty because often they realize they cannot afford family/children, so why bother dating in the first place.

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡🔘

I think there's two problems here:2 - All the measures I've seen to lower income inequality ultimately just harm potential business owners and house owners the most.3 - Anecdotal but it feels ridiculous how Leftists get mad at people having money. Like an athlete offers a service and gets paid [X] amount of money for it. How's he at fault for someone else being poor? (3)

Probably just a random reservoir tho IDK why it would be so pressurized. Possibly gas? But imagine if Vedic rivers start coming back to life lmao. Priest King

More than anything else, what I find pathetic about this is that someone of my generation, coming up through much the same path as my own, an essayist living in the golden age of essayists who has opportunities most could only dream of, has only magnified his resentment as a… https://t.co/9O5cZP4QQz pic.twitter.com/Q3nZYlplsR

Client confessed love for me and then ended their life

Tragic, tragic, heartbreaking loss. Won't go into any details to protect client privacy, but it's hard to swallow. Would be so grateful for any resources, groups, or advice as I grieve.

I've canceled most of my sessions for the week, but have kept a few. My backlogged notes for other clients are creating some anxiety. What a rollercoaster.

The most captivating client I've worked with to date, and they continue to be so even in their death. Grateful to have known them.

Update: Unbelievably thankful for the outpouring of support. It's been incredibly helpful to read and utilize ❤️ Very unfortunately I just got news of a second client passing. Two in the same week. This one was not by suicide.

Edit:

Erotic Countertransference

Looking for personal experiences navigating romantic/erotic countertransference (especially that in response to erotic transference)... I'm seeking supervision and being mindful about how I'm showing up with this client, but I'd love if anyone would be open to sharing more about their own experiences with this, and what the ultimate outcome was for you. Interestingly, this client has expressed their own attraction to me, and we're working through it/making use of it in our work together. They are not aware of my feelings beyond the genuine care I have for them. My framework leans relational psychodynamic for reference.

Triggered by Squidgame 2 where a man occupies the role of a transwoman character. Surreal discussion in the comments, with layer upon layer of irony.

Excerpt:

>Yeah the fact they don't even use a cis woman seems like a backhand to trans people. Feels less like representation and more a "they are guys in dresses" thing. Of course they can't use an actual transwoman because she would look like a girl.

This is her second out of four of one of 3 four packs generously given to us by my coworker! I adore her little face
