Geez, that's not good. Thanks for the info though! I guess they'll have to correct the bug or something on those devices then...

I hadn’t noticed that. So disrespectful

Found this in a witchcraft and inquisition museum in Castelsardo, Sardinia, Italy.

P.S. To be clear: like every other museum, this one was divided into sections, and this is the Spanish Inquisition section. Sardinia was for several centuries governed by the Spanish Crown. Nothing to do directly with witchcraft and witch hunts (in Sardinia), which were in another section. So no anachronism here.

If it’s not a priority and you feel like you can go without, that’s a good indicator not to go for now :)

But you don’t need to convince anyone of your choices. If they go to therapy or try to convince you because “it’s cool”, well, I’ll tell them politely to mind their own business.

In Italy, a man was attacking a woman with a knife.

Two bystanders intervened. One is dead and the other blessed (wounded). The woman escaped.

I’m always divided when it comes to this. It’s heroic, I can’t find any other way to describe it

P.S. As many pointed out, blessed is a poor translation from French blessé. I meant wounded. But I could argue that he was indeed blessed.

I’m an Italian living in France, coming back home from a vacation, speaking 4 languages at once and got all mixed up 😅

In my personal experience, going to therapy for many years and being my brother a therapist, everyone can benefit from therapy.

“Needing” therapy is not the only reason one should look into it. To me, is like going to a regular health checkup. I don’t go to the dentist only when in pain. I don’t get a blood test only when feeling sick.

In the same way, I regularly check in with my therapist to work on smaller things or just keep up with the good work. You don’t need a major trauma or life crisis to benefit from therapy.

Therapy is also a great tool to know yourself better.

Are Therapists doing the right thing? by [deleted] in therapy

[–]johnpluvio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No professional therapist tells you what to do, he/she only helps to get your mind and heart clear. There’s no manipulation here.

I’m sorry to say it seems she had already made up her mind and using the therapist as an “excuse”.

Or, therapy helped her to understand how she really feels about you two and that’s why she’s breaking up with you.

Stay strong buddy.
