How is it is supposed to work: your emotions are a response to your situation and surroundings. It is OK to feel the emotion. Now take that emotion and use your logical brain to decide which parts of the emotion fit the facts of the situation and which do not and why, and how you’re going to respond to said emotions (which is what tweet said, and what therapists say)

How people seem to interpret it: any emotional reaction is perfectly fine and I am not responsible for what I do out of emotion.

TLDR: your feelings are always valid. Your behavioral responses are not necessarily.

Yeah, the idea is the eliminate shame regarding your thoughts and feelings. Having some unkind feelings? Jealous feelings? Unpleasant feelings? Feelings you want to dismiss as disproportional but they just won’t go away?Doesn’t make you a bad person! Doesn’t make you weak! Everyone has feelings! It’s okay!

Because shame or distress about your thoughts and feelings can actually exacerbate them, while acknowledgement and acceptance of them tends to resolve in a healthier way. And this is necessary in a guilt-laden Calvinist society where many of us were raised to equate thoughts and feelings with actions and our “true selves” - which makes normal thoughts and feelings distressing when they don’t have to be.

But your actions still count!!! Your words still have meaning and impact!!! Your feelings are not an excuse to hurt others!!!

SHE DID THAT!

petalya

in therapy my therapist and i were talking about my own feelings of self worth in relationships. and she asked me to say qualities about myself that someone else would be attracted to, on a romantic and platonic level. so i named some things like compassionate, empathetic, etc. and she said “you named things that you can give someone. ways you can serve, rather than ways that you are” and y'all..my mind was blown that’s gonna stick with me forever like she then proceed to tell me actual innate qualities about myself that she liked and thought anyone else would like as well and i hadn’t even considered those because like she said i was focused on things i could do outwardly to attract and maintain connections rather than who i was as a person..goddamn!!! thats tea!!!

"If machines produce everything we need, the outcome will depend on how things are distributed."

Machines won’t bring about the economic robot apocalypse ― but greedy humans will, according to physicist Stephen Hawking.

In a Reddit Ask Me Anything session on Thursday, the scientist predicted that economic inequality will skyrocket as more jobs become automated and the rich owners of machines refuse to share their fast-proliferating wealth.

If machines produce everything we need, the outcome will depend on how things are distributed. Everyone can enjoy a life of luxurious leisure if the machine-produced wealth is shared, or most people can end up miserably poor if the machine-owners successfully lobby against wealth redistribution. So far, the trend seems to be toward the second option, with technology driving ever-increasing inequality.

Essentially, machine owners will become the bourgeoisie of a new era, in which the corporations they own won’t provide jobs to actual human workers.

There’s now a simple way to turn food into fuel, and it could change everything

Researchers at Cornell University have found a way to turn food waste into something useful.

In the journal Bioresource Technology, the engineers outline a two-step process that converts tossed away ingredients into fuel.

“Food waste should have a high value. We’re treating it as a resource, and we’re making marketable products out of it,” Roy Posmanik, a postdoctoral researcher at Cornell University and lead author of the study, said in a statement. “Food waste is still carbon – a lot of carbon.”

The first step is hydrothermal liquefaction, which effectively extracts all energy from the waste. During this step, the food waste produces crude bio-oil after being pressure cooked at a temperature of 200 to 350 degrees Celsius and at a pressure of 2 to 20 megapascal.

The crude oil can then later be refined to create liquid biofuel. Read more (6/30/17)
