Because loneliness is the kryptonite of invisibility.
@mikhailfranco7 ай бұрын
@@Untilitisnot I slightly rephrase: _Being a Loner is the kryptonite of invisibility._ A Loner is typically introvert, maybe on the Aspie spectrum, and perhaps shy as well. In today's world, a Loner mentality is a real superpower. When all others flock together for superficial transient appearances, The Loner can detach, be alone _without_ loneliness, be inwardly strong, and achieve enormous knowledge, competence and achievement - or just peace and relaxation. The Loner can live on intermittent Zoom meetings, while others go stir crazy, and long for the _Return To Office._ The important thing, is that the Loner has the choice, to join-in, or not. The alpha-males, egotists, narcissists and extroverts do not have the choice. If they withdraw, they feel psychologically damaged, and may actually be damaged. I say let the _alpha-males, egotists, narcissists and extroverts_ return to The Office. They can fight and entertain each other with tales of self-importance. Just let the introverts and Loners work from home, and get s*it done. The Loner is not necessarily a monk or a nun The Loner will engage when there is obvious social enjoyment and emotional relationships, but, more importantly, has the power to withdraw, without penalty. Some online places characterize the Loner as the _Gamma Male._ (yes, Loners are related to Aspie-Spectrum, which is related to maleness). I prefer the moniker _Steppenwolf._ First, it alludes to the remarkable must-read novel by Hermann Hesse, but it also harks back to the primordial Indo-European legend/practice of the outcast young males (mirroring the wolfpack) forced to live or die together, by adversity, challenge, creativity and discovery: _"We few, we_ happy _few, we band of brothers."_

It's illegal to separate a puppy from its mother in the first month, but with humans we suddenly don't see the issue as long as the would-be-parents "really want" to possess a baby. A couple's desire to have a child, however strong, does not justify prescribing attachment issues to a child by separating from its birth mother, plus all the potential psychological effects on the birth mother. I would recommend watching Olivia Maurel's interview on the Relatable podcast/KZfaq channel.

Good breeding practice keeps them with the litter until they're fully weaned and independent. Second, and bigger...define a mother. If the child is genetically not related to the surrogate, then it's an extremely vague and under-researched connection to make that the long-term effects of growing up with otherwise biological parents are harmful. And I guess a third point...babies have been adopted out since the beginning of time. Plenty of adopted people will tell you that their adoptive parents are their real parents and that they're extremely grateful that they grew up as they did. Plenty of biological children will tell you they wish the state had removed them from their parents due to abuse. Humanity is complex, and there's ample evidence that a human being can grow up psychologically well after being separated from a birth mother.

The dog vs. baby discussion reminded me of a conversation I had 7-8 years ago with the wife of a work colleage who had moved from the UK to the US. She said the thing she most appreciated about the US was that is was very pro-child while the UK was the opposite. I asked her what she meant, and she said in social gatherings, kids were ignored or pushed aside so adults could interact amongst themselves. In the US, by contrast, she said people more often centered activities around the kids while the adults chatted on the sidelines. No idea if the UK description was accurate, but how she described things in the US certainly was.

I'm Australian and in under another video I have been discussing this with people in the UK. I have spent months in the UK and the children, especially the teens were very badly behaved compared to my country. But I also saw they were not socialised in the same way children are here. We literally saw shops with signs saying, Dogs welcome children Are Not. We photographed the signs because we didn't think people would believe us. It's not so much that every thing is child focused with adults interacting on the sidelines, though there is that, but also that activities that are adult here are designed to attract entire families. For example pub's ussually have a family dining room with an adventure playground or an indoor play room. So even going to a pub for a meal and a couple of drinks is fun for the kids as well as the adults. On New Year's Eve our town had a street party. For the little ones there was face painting and merry go rounds. For the teens there was trail bike riding. For the adults there was boutique beers and live bands.

But lately it’s been feeding me a lot of these oh look, this person saved this dog are oh look at how abused this animal was before this person took it in and I as somebody who has taken an animals off the street I never recorded that. In the moment I’m too concerned thinking about the animal and the moment and the thought of recording myself to show other people. It never crosses my mind so I have to ask. Are these people setting up horrible fake instances to record themselves to to make money or are they actually helping. Now they may actually be helping. I may be completely wrong, but something about it something about advertising yourself helping instead of just doing it, rubs me the wrong way.

We, in the past, did not have access to our reflection. It was a custom, for instance, for my grandmothers to be given a hand mirror at age 16. Before that, they (more or less) didn't have much of a clue. I think about that sometimes. In comparison to today's 'image conscious' culture. 5 baby snaps maybe 3 snaps from grade school --- 3 photos from teen years to 70. (Even, when I was growing up, all the mirrors were placed 'adult height'... so... until I was taller than 5' 3" inches, what did I know? Upon reflection?) I think about that sometimes.

There is an Australian book, My Brilliant Career. It is a coming of age story about a teenage girl set in the 1890s, published 1900. The over emotional girl is sent to her grandmothers. And the first thing the grandmother did was cover every mirror in the house for many weeks. Without telling the grand daughter she ordered her a new dress. When the dress arrived the grandmother threw a part. When the teen girl was in her new dress and ready for the party she was finally allowed to see herself again. My adult height is five foot so I still couldn't use a mirror in your childhood home, lol.

You know, with the world as odd as it (now) is, I am somewhat richly gratified I have lived during the era of simplicity that I did. __________ This is somewhat off topic, yet... if you enjoy 'a twist' you might appreciate this: The face 'we see' in the mirror, is not the face that the world sees. Our face are Asymmetrical, and a mirror reflection flips that. Thats why most folks are (in a way) dissatisfied with their photographs, because they are 'unfamiliar' with 'that face'. __________ Anyway, thank you for turning me on to this literature.

I'm grateful to have those old photos. And I remind myself when I'm out with friends that a few photos of a good time or event will be nice to have and I'll look back on them and will be glad for them.

I agree. She didn't give a balanced perspective on that at all and only chose to show the potentially negative side of that way of life. Like you said, that man was non-traditional and mostly likely by the sounds of it, an abuser. Any relationship requires risk, especially when you're giving someone permission to hold your heart and mind your head, regardless of it being a Trad relationship or not. They are simply the old school version of a relationship of a man having his role as protector and provider and a woman having her role as a homemaker and nurturer, exactly like her time and her parents time. Does that mean reverting back to not having financial autonomy?? NO. That's where I'd draw the line.

Surrogacy section: plenty of eight month pregnant women share that man's fear and guilt about thinking they don't love their baby yet. Plenty of them give birth and go home with their new baby not feeling a bond. It takes time to develop because it's the care of the baby that makes a parent/baby, baby/parent bond-- not the physiology of pregnancy. The expectation that women should automatically feel a bond by the act of gestation and that not having that bond will undermine their baby's ability to be an "integrated person" does more harm than good.

Just Stop, let the universe perceive us/you the way it wants to, not the way we/you want to. Control is somewhat a delusion and denial of complexity of the fabric of this reality.

Chris Williamson, "It's impossible to be better than a dog." Mary Harrington, "You're only saying that 'cause you don't have kids." Me, "She sounds like someone whose children are not yet teenagers." Dogs are awesome. Dogs love you more than you can imagine. Dogs love you more than you can love. Dogs will lead you out of the most horrible pits of hell or die trying. If you even show your dog the slightest care you will never know greater loyalty in your life. Kids are great in a lot of ways. They're also far, far, far more trouble and annoyance than a dog. My kids are observably better than most and they still annoy the living hell out of me on a daily basis. The boys will argue over the stupidest things because they're just loaded with too much testosterone and don't know what the hell to do with it. The girl... Oh, dear God... She's been rolling her eyes since she was about eight! No one can possibly understand her perspective, just ask her. These are kids that I personally spent months educating on logic, reasoning, and critical thinking. Months of videos, discussion, lectures, you name it. That, along with my personal policy to NEVER lie to my children about ANYTHING (which sounds stupid in a lot of cases but sometimes the answer is, "You're not really old enough and you have never experienced the things you have to have experienced to understand the answer to your question and the truth would just confuse you more." Which is, in fact, the truth.) But when teenage hormones start showing up... It's all gone. They were LESS trouble when they were in the so-called, "terrible twos." That's a total crock, by the way. Two-year-olds are adorable and only get angry when you don't let them try to help or they have to take a nap. LITTLE kids are charming, adorable, HONEST, and totally loving. Teenagers? Not so much... The trouble is that teenagers know a hell of a lot more than they knew when they were six and they know it. The trouble is that they don't understand just how much MORE there is that they just have not the first clue about. They won't get it until they're about THIRTY! God have mercy on you because teenagers have none. The smarter they are the more of a pain in the ass they'll be because they'll know they're smart. My youngest is absolutely brilliant. Mechanical aptitude, math, and physical coordination are all well above average. He is a HUGE pain in the ass. You will never do anything harder than raise your own children. The rewards, however, are incalculable. The sense of accomplishment from having produced a sane adult human being is better than anything else you'll ever do. But if you aren't absolutely DETERMINED to raise fantastic kids into strong, independent, well-adjusted human beings GET A FUCKING DOG. There is no greater responsibility than that of bringing another human being into the world. Accept it or get sterilized. Seriously. If you think you'll just send them off to school and go about your own life as if nothing has changed since you made a new human being come into the world GET A FUCKING DOG because the schools are very definitely NOT interested in producing sane human beings and your children will become your worst nightmare. (Some of the teachers might have fantasies about fighting the system and actually helping children to understand the world but most of those have already either been fired or have simply surrendered and abandoned that dream.) If you think you're going to be a, "brave single mother," GET A FUCKING DOG (Or, more likely, twenty cats.) Children REQUIRE a mother AND a father. If you think otherwise you are a fool.

Imo the polarization problem and intolerance to people deviating even a little from correct thinking is the problem. I agree with some of what she’s saying about not sharing intimate personal information. And she’s not wrong you take a risk posting political opinions. But the idea not posting them somehow improves your dating prospects? Like the massive polarization isn’t going to be a problem when you finally get into your opinions with the person? I’m dubious.

It’s just a snip it.. mostly a highlight reel. But it’s performative & addictive. It definitely disrupts intimacy & even mental health. I only have IG & recently deactivated my FB. Don’t have Twitter or tic toc or anything else. Don’t need it. I don’t post about family conflict or my kids personal business. I don’t post half naked pictures of myself either.
