In honor of Lord Byron’s birthday I would like to remind you all of the time that Shelley and Keats, having not heard from him for some time, became concerned for his safety and it was determined that Shelley would go looking for him. Keats received a letter some time later that Shelley had found him in Venice, where he’d been having so much sex that he’d nearly died from malnourishment and dehydration. Keats’ entire response amounted to essentially, “You should probably have let him.”

Mari Kondo is literally the ONLY organizational expert I’ve ever seen not harming people with those disorders.  Her techniques are specifically designed to where everyone can use them.  It’s a personalized treatment where the person, not the organizer is in complete control.  I’m starting to get pissed at the people I’m seeing shit on her.

She even goes out of her way to tackle “sentimental items” as a completely different category, not to put them in the category they would otherwise go into.  Her technique of taking everything of a certain kind (rather than going by rooms) is SPECIFICALLY better for people with OCD because that stops the compulsive need to keep each room a certain way by only moving small aspects of each room at a time and not fucking up the whole thing.

What the fuck is that person on about?  Have they ever actually read her books?

Kondo’s method is significantly better for people with what you’re calling “hoarding disorder” (which is actually a generalized control disorder with object attachment) because it doesn’t “force users out of the comfort zone”- it allows them to be in control of the process.  This idea that we HAVE to force people with object attachment out of the attachment has been debunked over and over- it’s actually better to let them retain a degree of control, for the same exact reason parents shouldn’t take away a child’s comfort object “because they got too old for it”.

Kondo’s method allows the user to retain control, and has been shown to be significantly better at behavior management for people with the very disorders that person listed so what the actual fuck?

Medicine should never have been privatized in the first place. The concept of profiting off of human desperation and the need for life-saving medicine is, philosophically, intrinsically, and morally wrong both as a fundamental concept and in practice. The fact that Martin Shkreli was ever able to buy an AIDS drug and increase its price 5000% is indicative of a problem even bigger than a truly evil, despicable, and selfish human being; it is indicative of the problem of the current system of for-profit pharmaceuticals with obviously inadequate price regulation.
