難しいことを考えず可愛いものだけを見ていたい時がある。今がその時だ。
this is at least to some extent bc the primary employer conveyed non pecuniary benefit in the us is healthcare, whereas european firms competing on non financial benefits can only up PTO
anyway the series of policy choices and accidents in the 1940s which caused healthcare to be tied to employment is this country is one of the larger mistakes ever made
Reflecting on the wheel of consent (attached) has been rewiring my psyche. The attitude I learned through childhood experiences is that taking alone is always wrong, pathological. Receiving a gift or taking what I want always requires a commensurate act of service (= giving), or…
You can actually cure autism by simply no longer funding the people who diagnose children with autism. One weird trick.. and you will find out soon enough that it's surprisingly effective.

Cannot get over the phrases “commissioned twiblings” or “database of wombs.” Surrogates are risking their lives for the pay of an avg entry level office job, mostly bc they want to help other people have children. And to talk about them like this!

Frankenstein’s creature is not supposed to be an “agent of evil & chaos.” Mary Shelley hammers that home repeatedly in the novel: the unforgivable sin is Dr. Frankenstein’s abandonment of his creation & his refusal to take responsibility. Granted the novel is didactic & difficult

Everyone loves the idea of massage & bath mental health care, or, even better, cocaine & vibrators, but you weren't going to get those. No, you were going to get Being Put on Public Display by a Weird French Guy or "well, what if we poke the hysteric a lot, what happens then???"

@FieryKittyPie bullshit answer: but what if we don't want to be embodied. What if want to have no body. Or: what if we want to have the body of cats? srs answer: you know what kills me is that Freud's whole project was "hey, instead of giving people massages and baths or whatever, what if we…
@FieryKittyPie "Hey, did you know that we have a Body and a Mind? Did you know that the Mind is, in fact, part of the Body? Did you know that there's a bio AND a psycho AND a social?" -- every goddamn person who has ever Thought a Thought.
It's very odd to me the way "trauma" has changed from being a label for a kind of event and has been reified and is now talked about almost as a standalone entity, substance, or energy. "He has trauma." "That's her trauma." "I need to heal my trauma." Weird!

"People often prefer orgies of self-punishment to acknowledging wrongdoing, bearing depressive guilt or concern, and forgoing both narcissism and masochism in favour of contrition and conscientious, reparative activity. In this connection it is notable that we have come to
associate narcissism as such with its grandiose form, overlooking the negative narcissism of the self-disparaging but no less self-obsessed depressive who may carry on attacking himself forever as a resistance to facing his guilt." -Carveth, Guilt
Tools used to do what the user wanted. You (me, us) were the user. Now tech is primarily designed to do what the seller's investors want, obsessed with squeezing out maximal rent. If anything we want gets done by our own device, that is an ancillary and unreliable side effect.
