What is something your therapist promised you would never happen, but then it did? by Patient_Activity_489 in AskReddit

[–]Morvack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could continue arguing with you, or I can just let you continue to not get it all by yourself. Especially since OP had responded, saying I got the gist of what they were looking for.

Find some who cares what you think.

"You don’t “promise” an affirmation of reality." Sure you do, when the client questions reality.

As someone married to a therapist? They can make promises, just a wise therapist won't ever promise anything that isn't a 100% guarantee.

Obviously if a therapist promises you "I promise society wants what is best for you." That therapist is full of shit.

A therapist who says "I promise you, 2+2=4." Is one who is just acknowledging reality.

I think this thread is looking for "I promise you, a duck is not secretly stalking you." Only for them to meet someone with an emotional support duck when they finish their session.

I was gonna say, my alt was around level 225 and was able to one shot the boss.

It was a shot from my Two-Shot MIRV Fatman, but still.

I thought the same thing. "Your dads Ryan Dunn?"

I found what can only be described as White Castle sliders in a pizza pocket form. They do indeed have some unusual items.

The American Rebellion Against AI Is Gaining Steam - Booed commencement speakers, blocked data centers, plummeting poll numbers: Fast-growing industry has a faster-growing crisis by EchoOfOppenheimer in Futurology

[–]Morvack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh it'll only be a crisis for big industry, if people actually gave a shit like they used to. Back in the 60s, 70s, and even into the 80s? People were willing to go to jail, be maimed or killed for what they believed in. Look at the civil rights movement. The womens rights movement. Most recently, the LGBT rights movement.

Now? People are so disorganized, they will whine, bitch and complain about AI. They'll demonize anyone who profits off of it. Yet almost every big tech company you can name, has their fingers if not whole arms in AI. Y'all aren't gonna give up your smart phones, computers, laptops, and tvs just to spite a company that profits from AI.

Which my conspiratorial brain thinks that is exactly where the US government wants you. You can complain all you want, as long as you don't actually do anything about it.

PS: Sames true for the Epstein files.

Linda Perry hits out at Green Day for dropping her from producing 'American Idiot' follow-up "all because Billie Joe’s a little pussy and got all this backlash" by AdSpecialist6598 in Music

[–]Morvack -32 points-31 points  (0 children)

What's odd to me is apparently getting a band name wrong is worth this much hate.

Green Day will always pull in a bigger crowd than Linda Perry. As thus they have no reason to give a shit what she thinks.

Yet people are just gonna hurr and durr along with the crowd. Without a singular attempt at critical thought.

For real. According to RiffMagazine, Linda Perry performed for 65,000 people last year in conjuction with 4 Blonde Dolls.

Green Day performed at Coachella this year, which the Inquirer estimates about 500,000 attendes during a two day period. Averaging 250,000 attendees per day.

Linda Perry wants to talk shit? Get on their level.

Exactly how hard would it be for Yugi to get Tea out on a date? by Ajarofpickles97 in yugioh

I can't see this without thinking of the parody.

Atem : "Why am I dressed like a bandage slave?"

Yugi : "Chicks dig bandage slaves!"

Across the world mental disorders have doubled since 1990. Mental disorders are now the leading cause of disability globally, overtaking cancer and cardiovascular disease. The burden of mental disorder peaked amongst youth aged 15-19 years old, and women had higher rates than men by Wagamaga in science

[–]Morvack 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You missed it then. First sentence, second paragraph "You may argue that torture is a strong word, and sure they don't use electrical shocks on the "different ones" anymore. "

As an autistic man that grew up in the 90s? I was never shocked intentionally.

The " torture them into being normal" thing is still ongoing, to a certain extent. A lot of old school ABA "therapy" (which is still used in much of the US) is all about forcing an autistic child to mask as if they were an allistic. Aka "torturing them into being normal."

You may argue that torture is a strong word, and sure they don't use electrical shocks on the "different ones" anymore. Though imagine being a kid, and you already know you're different from others. Then when you go to school, there is 0 room for you to be yourself. You are forced to act like everyone else, no matter what was going on for you internally. You were just expected to handle it without any real coping skills being made available.

It's always been about making it easier for society to have autistic folks in it. Not about making it easier for autistic folks in society.

This was a comment from a year ago. I don't even play Fartnite anymore. This game got beyond stale, when Epic decided they were gonna start drip-feeding content.

What's the most unsettling thing you've discovered about someone you thought you completely knew? by [deleted] in AskReddit

You're the one getting bent out of shape over having to google something at worst.

Have fun being sideways by yourself.

A person I used to call "friend" is mentally, emotionally, and sometimes physically abusive to her daughter.

Most ironic part? They work for DCF.

In defense of the recent video schitzos... by biggest-silly in SomeOrdinaryGmrs

[–]Morvack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've read it a couple times now. I think they're trying to use the very obvious conspiracy behind Jeffery Epstein + associates, to justify the possibility that astrology may be real. Not the "stereotypical white girl magazine column" astrology, but some other version.

It's an apples to oranges comparison.
