All of their choices want cheap Chinese labor. To go back to Sandberg, if the system wants cheap female labor, how would we change the system? Only by wanting different things. Simply, if the majority of women wanted to work less, that would be the game. But the majority of women do want to work less, but they also want to buy X, Y, Z aspirational products, and they want X,Y,Z way more then they want to work less.
The final twist to this otherwise simple addition is that what you want is often taught to you by that very system. What is the effect? The government wants [the poor to get Supplementary Security Income], because it wants [them] off the state welfare budget and onto the federal budget, which, as you know, has unlimited funds because it can run deficits, print money, and invade nations and invent words. But when the system ties benefits to a mental disorder, the point is the benefits, not the mental disorder.
And the answer is very simple:. Do you want riots in the streets? How much does it cost to prevent LA or the city of your choice from catching fire? Medicalizing social problems has the additional benefit of rendering society not responsible for those social ills. Yay empiricism.
The rise of psychiatry parallels the rise of poverty in industrialized societies. Who, even if miserable or unfulfilled or unconnected had the decency to fake it for the next generation, for the people they touched.
The story that is making the internet and morning TV rounds: Two people [ The twist is that they announced their marriage in the Style section of the New York Times, because, of course, they hooked up in style. The further twist is that they semi-shamelessly recount in the Times how they fell in love while they were still married to other people.
Even the most hardened narcissist feels some passing guilt when their spouse is sobbing on the kitchen floor. How do you get over that? Dress it up in the language of a story, of overcoming, of finding a soul mate, of mid-life romance, of self-actualization.
These two were fortunate enough to be able to make it an actual story — in which they are the main characters and everyone else is supporting cast and the readers — you — will focus on the main characters. What matters is that they are the main characters. We are really proud of our family and proud of the way we handled the situation.
There was nothing in the story to be ashamed of. They win. It was necessary to their own emotional survival. But what you need to get out of these stories is how this generation and forwards will deal with guilt: externalizing it, converting it to shame, and then taking solace in the pockets of support that inevitably arise.
It is, in effect, crowdsourcing the superego, and when that expression catches on remember where you first heard it. Then remember why you heard it. So that when you violate them and there is no way anyone noticed, it still gnaws at you because it conflicts with your ego, who you are.
Id exists from birth, so superego has to precede ego. Shame comes not from the action but from the exposure. You will sacrifice anything, including your life, to preserve that identity. Psychologists and psychiatrists generally say yelling should be avoided.
The problem is neither the yelling nor the spanking, the problem is when. Merrill said. The kid has learned nothing about good and bad behavior.
Consider a mom and a kid in a toy store. The kids starts whining about buying something. He gets loud. But why is she whispering it? At home she would have yelled, why not just yell now? That cannot work, ever. The kid will sense this, and the lesson they will learn is that there is no absolute right and wrong, only pleasing the boss.
A bunch of first grade boys and girls were playing soccer at recess. One boy, Devastator, was particularly aggressive and slide tackled two kids. He chases her — she runs to the teacher and he quickly doubles back to the soccer field. Later, the girl tells her mother, who calls the school. What kind of crazy school wants you to back down — and get someone else to protect you? What kind of school indoctrinates kids that power is only possessed by a bad people; b the state?
No one else was good enough for him. He stared into the pool, and eventually wasted away. Forget about whether the prophecy is true. How do you make a child know himself? You surround him with mirrors. This is who everyone thinks you are. You cause him to be tested: this is the kind of person you are, you are good at this but not that. This other person is better than you at this, but not better than you at that.
These are the limits by which you are defined. Narcissus was never allowed to meet real danger, glory, struggle, honor, success, failure; only artificial versions manipulated by his parents. Am I a fool? I enjoyed his blog and was sad it stopped updating. They mentioned working as a trainee doc in the ER but TLP was a psychiatrist at a large university hospital. Also I don't think TLP quit because he was doxxed necessarily.
If that were the case, he wouldn't have kept paying the site hosting fees all this time. I think he decided the blog had become too much about his identity as a sort of minor messiah figure in the eyes of his readers, which is sort of against the founding principles of the blog itself.
The character or voice he created for the blog was gaining too much power.
