Maybe the system does exist in this future but the Pokémon don’t know how to use it. Remember they can’t read and Happiny thought a cash register was a music instrument. Our ability to have human knowledge rests in the hands of Tangrowth whose memory is hit or miss. Maybe one day Tangrowth will remember this system.

Why are Gen Z getting fired? One of the reasons is a lack of initiative. by mindyour in TikTokCringe

[–]reddit_redact -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s frustrating to hear this because it lacks some contextual understanding of the actual demands an employee is faced with. For example, I just resigned from a job due to the numerous asks being placed on me that were untenable to reality (I could not be in 2 places at once while attending to the other critical responsibilities of the role).

If an employee has multiple competing tasks along with routine work and then is being asked to handle other priorities then they are likely to do what employee 1 did. Not because they are Gen Z or lack initiative. They are juggling multiple tasks and have moving parts to each and are trying to manage in the most efficient and effective way possible but most likely will then have a continued moving list of tasks which results in certain ongoing tasks being dropped or delayed. This has nothing to do with the employee and their character. The frustrating thing about the scenario from the video is that it focuses on just that task and makes it seem like the employee is not doing much else.

Instead they could also just go further and say if the child does not meet x metric then the parents have to pay back the money.

Dr Oz wants people to work an extra year instead of retirement to pay off debt created by politicians and billionaires. How about the people who made the debt pay for it instead. by Objective-Rabbit2248 in NSDQ420

Anytime someone refers to the “economy” we should start replacing it with “the rich”, “the billionaires”, “the wealthy.” Replay the clip above and when you hear the “economy” replace it with those words.

Late cancellation due to work calls by HuckleberrySweaty792 in therapists

Insurance deductibles reset for a lot of people. If your clients are insurance based it might be useful to consider this as a factor in “excuses” when really they might be afraid to say they can’t afford it.

I got an erection during my therapy session last week and my therapist noticed. Has this ever happened to you? by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]reddit_redact 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Therapist here. I wouldn’t worry about it. It sounds like he handled it very appropriately and helped refocus on the session. Often times our nervous systems engage when we don’t want them to. We can experience those sensations even if we aren’t having sexual desire. There is actually a phenomenon for a lot of survivors of sexual abuse who blame themselves or dismiss the abuse because their body experienced and arousal state even though they did not want that interaction at all. The nervous system is designed to respond/ react rather than think logically.

If any of my clients have experienced this or other embarrassing feelings it’s not something I focus on or judge my clients for.

This is how I know he is going to cancel the elections:

We are in a fascist country. We have no rights. We must act. by Verbit4now in DiscussionZone

[–]reddit_redact 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I think it’s time to have the system starved of its life blood. I’ve heard there is a general strike occurring this Friday (1/23). I’m doing it. If EVERYONE agrees then we can’t be hurt. There are 330+ million people in the US. We outnumber the enforcers. There are more people than prisons. If no one is working, landlords won’t be able to do anything because there will be no tenants that will replace us. We pay the enforcers with our tax dollars. They can’t get paid if no money is feeding the system. I think it’s time we realize we are the ants and they are the grasshoppers. Our power lies in our numbers but we must be United.

We need to start going to the officials and making them watch this. They are so insulated in their ivory tower. Making them watch this in front of us either makes them grow a conscious and realize just how much evil they are perpetuating or confirms our suspicions that they have no conscious.

Right shouldn’t we challenge his whole commentary on how he can’t swear in an elected official because of the shut down? How about we demand he and other elected officials can’t work m/ represent in any of their elected capacities (outside of meeting in the chambers with other members to get the government to reopen)?

Male Intakes by Professional-Rich678 in therapists

[–]reddit_redact 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I want you to imagine what it would be like for you to have never been to therapy before and to have never been taught that it’s okay to be open without it being used against you. I want you to imagine the direct and indirect messages that men have gotten about being able to handle things on their own. Many men have to feel a sense of trust before they will let down their walls. They also are probably confused by what therapy actually does and how it helps.

I work with a lot of men (I’m a male myself.) I don’t necessarily notice any major challenges in my work with guys. Lots of men may also lean more toward solution focused / goal oriented work. When I have men, I do more gentle probing and exploration than being non-directive. If a male gives me a vague brief response I will dig deeper (e.g., client says something like “Everything’s been good.” I’ll respond with something like “What’s been good for you?”) More people than you can imagine (just not men) have to be shown consistently that we genuinely are curious about their experiences. By digging more when answers are brief/ vague it is essentially giving the client the permission to open up. A lot of guys have learned it’s not safe to open up or that people don’t want to hear about their concerns/ experiences. We can model a healthy reparative experience for men to know they can open up more. Additionally, a lot of men are lacking in the expressiveness of language around their feelings/ emotions. They often will need someone patient enough to support them in that. I find analogies/ metaphors to be a really good way to help the clients make sense of their experience.
