@MGIFOTB You need one of these bad boys **slaps moped horn** (Although probably wouldn't have been able to press it given braking is more important)

“We paid for Angela Rayner’s education” this is what posh people think of you btw state-educated folks. Like they literally think less of you, no matter how long ago school was.
We paid for Angela Rayner’s education. We paid her wages when she worked for the local council. We paid her wages when she became an MP. We even paid the settlement that enabled her to buy a house. Tax payers have funded every aspect of her entire life.

The Sun and Mail both splash on Angela Rayner owning three homes. Except she doesn't. One is a Government-owned property that she'll have to vacate when she leaves office. It's like saying a PM owns No 10. But the deception works on those who only see the headline. #Papers

🚨🇬🇧Patriotism or Fascism? The Nazis didn’t start with camps. They started with flags, mobs, and shouts of 'traitor' at neighbours. Tommy Robinson and his mob have twisted the St. George’s cross into a weapon - and it’s starting to look a lot like fascism 🧵👇

Inheritance tax isn’t “theft” from those who have built a “successful life and legacy”. It is a tax on those receiving a windfall of unearned wealth. It’s not “immoral” unless you think people’s life chances should be determined not by what they do — but who their parents are.
What a ridiculous statement. Inheritance tax is immoral. A government punishment and theft on those who built a successful life and legacy (and paid a lifetime of other taxes). A spiteful government punishment tax on families and the bereaved.

Until you die you will always be the product of your environment.. it lays a foundation even in the choices you make, if your environment dehumanizes you, you will dehumanize yourself too.. yes you are your choices but you are your environment and genetics ..
After a certain age, you are no longer the product of your environment or how you were raised. It's a personal choice to live the way you do.

I've blown my life up enough times to realize it's a futile effort. Everywhere you go, there you are. *You* created the life that you supposedly need to run away. So why aren't you taking responsibility for it? Why aren't you working to fix it? Living on the beach in SA isn't
Just had dinner with a friend of mine getting a divorce. On paper he has it all at 50: Beautiful wife, two kids out of the house, business sold and retired into financial comfort. Just built their dream house on the beach in South America. But after 23 years of marriage he

1/ There is no substitute for a “good enough” childhood. None. Long-term therapy or analysis can be reparative - over time, and with willingness, one can get their stunted development back on track, or, at least understand where it derailed and learn to accept inherent

I've come to the conclusion that people of the mindset "I suffered, why shouldn't they??" are actually deep down inside saying "I deserve to suffer"

Without blaming the hammer I just slammed into your knees, explain why your legs are broken?
Without blaming apartheid that ended 31 years ago, why do black South Africans still struggle economically ?

The idea that every bad thing that happened to you or that you did is somehow rendered ok because "it made you who you are today" is nonsense. Terrible things happen and they exact real costs. You would probably be an even better person had you not encountered those things.

People really don’t understand that if “having a functioning body” has become a status signifier in your society, then your society is a dysgenic, dystopian shithole
Anti-Ozempic people don’t understand that the average person isn’t supposed to be an iron-willed Übermensch. Average people simply reflect the quality of their society; they’re obese bc modernity is sick, not bc of some moral failing. Being thin should be effortless, the default!

Hey, it's 1985 and I have an idea for a movie! In 2020, a virus hits the world and by 2025 nearly half a billion of the survivors have brain damage so severe that they don't even remember to protect themselves against further infections. They start using robots to think for them.
I really think AI needs to be destroyed before it’s too late and gets completely out of control.

Gratitude is not an effective treatment for depression. Most of my patients who struggle with depression actually blame themselves for ‘having no reason to be depressed’ because they appreciate their privilege. Enough with the mental health shaming.
Please stop this nonsense. People who are on antidepressants aren't just taking them because they aren't grateful enough. It's a real sickness. I can't believe all the bad takes on here lately about depression. 🤦🏼♀️

We're in the "Don't Look Up" era. Climate change is accelerating faster than expected, the science is clear and yet denial is thriving. Worse still, parties like Reform UK spread deliberate misinformation to gain votes. Sea surface temperatures are 8 standard deviations above

THE DARK KNIGHT becoming less beloved by a segment of film fans, especially Gen Z and younger, is utterly incomprehensible to the typical millennial mind. When it released in IMAX in ‘08, most of us thought we saw God. It’s an interesting indicator of changing tastes over time.

@DoctorPerin I collect a lot of quotes from therapists and researchers for my own edification, and to use in CEU workshops. You happily reminded me of this one.

Children are deeply bothered by a parents depression;they feel guilty for making normal demands,and they come to believe that their needs drain&exhaust others…the earlier their dependence on someone who is deeply depressed,the greater their emotional privation Dr N.McWilliams
