🧪 Darius’ laboratory

🧪 academic background: psychology undergraduate

🧪 affiliation: none, non-professional daily self- conducted research

🧪 methods: observation, field research, researcher-participant, questioning techniques (metaphors, comparing similar situations)

🧪 fields of study: daily human social behaviour

🧪 rigurosity: as high as it can be; accounting for probabilities, weights, assessing bias, meta-questioning

🧪 information-theory or theory-information: both; when creating theory, optimizing for parsimony

🧪 philosophy/current frameworks: evolutionary and social psychology RESEARCH, determinism, egoism, unifying theories of selfish behaviour across social groups (accounts for gender, race etc.), therapy and psychiatry critical (critical of APPLIED RESEARCH)

🧪 common research impasses: hypocrisy vs over-arching undiscovered theory that explains contradictions, explaining the usefulness of research, being able to coherently explain the connection between multiple elements (unusual theories)

🧪 personal significance of research: high, used as a tool of survival and assessing allies; uses research and inquiry as a love language

🧪 personality profile of the researcher: very emotionally invested, will often look distressed

“Do it scared” “do it alone” are all great tips, but my biggest takeaway from therapy is do it messy. This is especially true if you’re getting out of a burnout, which I experience often. Literally just do it messy. You don’t need to pick the perfect trail to walk, the perfect playlist to listen to, whatever the fuck it is. You don’t need to have a meticulous to do list and wake up at the exact time you planned and drink the exact amount of water you planned to drink. Like the biggest thing for people like me to remember is sometimes it’s okay to do it messy. Put on a random yt workout and just get it done in sweats. Do 5 minutes of a daunting task and go from there. Sometimes just getting up is a win during intense burnouts or depressive funks. Literally just do it messy.

It's always "stop harming yourself or we'll have to lock you up!!!" and never "what do you need to change to want to harm yourself less and how can we help you make some of these changes?" and that's why we're not getting anywhere

dude u reminded me of some really happy childhood memories of reading roald dahl's books n short stories and stuff. looking back, i think i liked it so much because his child characters felt so ... alive? there's a quote from him where he talks about how everything is so much bigger and scarier when you're a kid, how you're surrounded by giants who yell at you and tower over you and it's so easy to forget that when you grow up. like he really understood children as their own people with their own emotions, and knew how to communicate his ideas and his stories with kids in mind. i never felt patronized reading his stuff, or like i was reading what an adult thinks a child would like.

i was really gutted to learn he had some terrible views (i was an adult by that time, but it still hurt)

yeah i absolutely adore his stories i think he is one of if not the best childrens writers. even as an adult it can be very healing to read.

rest in piss bad man with a genuinely great talent

no but im so tired of how self-deprecation is always more accepted than self-advocacy. if i say i can't drive because im autistic i get questioned on how exactly that works and given a million suggestions on how to do it anyway and i look like im trying to be special so it's easier to just say im a loser. yeah i don't drive because im kind of a loser lmao. oh well. and people say lmao back and we move on. at worst they say "oh im sure you'll figure it out haha." but no interrogation!! being a loser is more respectable than being disabled. being a loser is something that doesn't make other people feel uncomfortable about their own biases. so no, no im not disabled. i don't struggle to keep friends and do the laundry and make quick trivial decisions and clean my room and brush my teeth because im autistic. it's because im a loser. it's my fault. it is what it is. at least im funny now. do you think im funny? please think im funny

Also, since it is very very hot rn (at least here in florida), IMPORTANT NOTICE

STAY HYDRATED HOWEVER WORJS BEST FOR YOU. I don’t care if it’s water, juice, tea. As long as you’re drinking something.

Water is not the only valid way of hydrating yourself, and it’s also NOT the most hydrating.

I think a huge problem that a lot of queer folks have is thinking that their identities are inherently political. Or rather, they consider the act of being xyz to be praxis. And it shows in the way they treat people whose identities they don’t consider to be political enough.

I think "inherently political" itself is a very confusing concept. Any identity is inherently political in the sense that it's some kind of a reaction to how the society functions. That doesn't translate to it being a political act though.

I DIDNT KNOW YOU ARE RADQUEER :00

[pansyofaman]

Reposting one year later but i was - not part of the community anymore cuz our political views don t match that much; i am propara and protransid still, so theoretically a radqueer; also i ve changed my stance somewhat on 🍸 (i made a longer post somewhere on social media but i do not wanna link it, it s partly about double standards when it comes to consent - financial, work related consent vs sexual consent for example, and also about how the ability to consent is more of a spectrum, and can be affected by things other than age, an important one being social isolation - on this note i remember seeing your incelpunk post which i really enjoyed)
