Happy (American) Thanksgiving, everyone!
And now a message that reflects the true meaning of the holiday, as told by our national treasure: Wednesday Addams!

Each collar pin set comes on an illustrated backing postcard and an exclusive 3âł vinyl sticker for each set (art here!) If you could give an RT on twitter or like/comment on Instagram (to beat the darn algorithms) as well thatâd be super appreciated!! thank you so much!

Thereâs a fine line between âpushing yourself out of your comfort zoneâ and âpushing yourself into a mental breakdownâ and we need to fucking find it and stop encouraging people to do the second in an attempt at making them do the first.
A German pedagogue named Tom Senninger developed this model called the âLearning Zone Model.â Senninger talks about three zones: comfort, learning (or growth), and panic. I think thatâs really important because some people do talk like anything âoutside your comfort zoneâ is automatically good and brings growth.
But Senninger knows that you can only stretch so far before youâve stretched too far. Both experience, personal work, and therapy can help expand the first two zones and shrink the third, but weâll always have that place where panic and/or pain sets in, and our goal should be to recognize and respect that in ourselves and others, rather than force ourselves or someone else to âpush through it.â There is no âthrough it.â The only thing on the other side of the panic zone is more panic.
This is super good advice. Learn about your boundaries and demand that people respect them more guys.
Drawing by Pierrot, Tatler, England, November 7, 1928
and letâs take a moment to appreciate the fact that michelangelo had probably never seen a girl naked and when he want to sculpt or paint them his mentality seems to be âwow, everyone likes womenâŠ.they must be likeâŠ..buff dudes. i love buff dudes. women are buff dudes but with little chest lumps and no wienerâ
ânailed it.â
And my personal favorite, Adam and Eve
he literally painted adam and steve
I am in the absolute SHITTIEST mood right now, but this actually made me laugh out loud.Â
The NYC Met museum had an exhibition where a projection of the Sistine chapel was paired with a bunch of Michelangeloâs sketches.
My friends⊠EVERYONE KNEW HE WAS GAY. He wasnât even trying to hide it.
He drew portraits of and for his crushes and boyfriends. He had KNOWN lovers and he definitely had a thing for young brawny men.
Historians: âoh, Iâm such a genius, this man is referenced as his favourite. His love must have been a lecherous secret. Dirty, perverted, secretive.â
Michelangelo:
I am laughing so much rn bless this
Michelangelo the original âhorny on mainâ artist.

Your professor will not be happy with you if he says the Stanford Prison Experiment shows human nature and you say it shows the nature of white middle class college-aged boys.
Like he will not be happy at all.
For real though. That experiment. Scary shit.
This reminds me of a discussion that I read once which said Lord of the Flies would have turned out a hell of a lot differently if it was a private school of young girls (who are expected to be responsible and selfless instead), or a public school where the children werenât all from an inherently entitled, emotionally stunted social class (studies have shown that people in lower socioeconomic classes show more compassion for others). Or that the same premise with children raised in a different culture than the toxic and opressive British Empire and itâs emphasis on social hierarchy and personal wealth and status. And that what we perceive as the unchangable truth deep inside humanity because of things like Lord of the Flies and the Stanford Prison Experiment, is just the base truths about what happens when you remove any accountabilty controlling one social group with an overwhelming sense of entitlement and an inability to feel compassion.
I will always reblog this.
I just wanna say that the Lord of the Flies was explicitly written about high-class private school boys to make this exact point. Golding wrote Lord of the Flies partially to refute an earlier novel about this same subject: The Coral Island by R.M. Ballantyne. Golding thought it was absolutely absurd that a bunch of privileged little shits would set up some sort of utopia, so his book shows them NOT doing that.
This is also generally true about most psychological experiments.
Thereâs an experiment called âThe Ultimatum Gameâ. It goes something like this.
Subject A is given an amount of money (Say, $100).
Subject A must offer Subject B some percentage of that money.
If Subject B accepts Subject Aâs offer, both get the agreed upon amount of money. If Subject B refuses, no one gets any money.
The most common result was believed to be that people favored 50/50 splits. Anything too low was rejected; people wanted fairness. This was believed to be universal.
And then a researcher went to Peru to do the experiment with members of the indigenous Machiguenga population, and was baffled to find that the results were totally different.
Because, to the Machiguenga, refusing any amount of free money (even an unfair amount) was considered crazy.
So the researcher took his work on the road (to 14 other âsmall scaleâ societies and tribes) , and to his shock found the results varied wildly depending on where the test was done.Â
In fact, the âuniversalâ result? Was an outlier.Â
And thatâs the problem. 96% percent of test subjects for psychological research come from 12% of the population. Stuff that we consider to be universal facts of human nature⊠even things like optical illusions, just⊠arenât.
 You can read an article about it here.  But the crux of it is that psychology is plagued with confirmation bias, and people are shaped more by their environment than we realize.Â
âAmerican participants are exceptional even within the unusual population of Westernersâoutliers among outliers.â
Given the data, they concluded that social scientists could not possibly have picked a worse population from which to draw broad generalizations. Researchers had been doing the equivalent of studying penguins while believing that they were learning insights applicable to all birds.
This is a long read but so worth it
