According to psychology, the urge to immediately fix a partner’s or friend’s distress instead of just sitting with them in it isn't empathy; it is your own low frustration tolerance. When someone you love is hurting, and you instantly jump into problem-solving mode, offering unsolicited advice or trying to find a silver lining, you are often trying to soothe your own secondary anxiety. You aren't rescuing them from their pain; you are rescuing yourself from the discomfort of witnessing a vulnerability you don't know how to hold
was thinking about my own suffering in this nyc heatwave and then had to check my privilege because there are beautiful women in fiji right now being emotionally tormented by by mid men
the way she knew he only got up to instill fear and intimidate the girls but aniya matched his energy and sonned tf outta him, this will genuinely go down as one of the greatest moments in reality tv. she really tore 😹
This is straight out of Mein Kampf btw. Its paraphrased and adapted to the modern world of course, but the idea that the Aryan race invented culture/technology and so a Pole or a Slav could never be truly German is the core foundational idea that gave birth to Nazism
It really pisses me off how all this legislation is trying to use "protect the kids " as a scapegoat but when the kids exercise free speech, suddenly it's a problem. The blatant hypocrisy is disgusting.
I'm always for being open about mental health, but important context is that Kean, as a state rep, voted against the New Jersey Paid Sick Leave Act, which established 40 hours of sick leave for employees a year.
Kean just took *4 months* of paid sick leave.
Love Island is interesting bc it’s evil but it’s also refreshingly honest. There’s no facade of sincerity like the Bachelor: the show itself is an openly hostile cosmic force against the contestants, the islanders subject to the whims of invisible viewers and a disembodied voice
Genuinely insane stuff. The law will require the pentagon to make itself dependent on Israel. Israeli tech, Israeli AI systems etc will be integrated into all the highest classification functions of the US military. They lost the public opinion war so now they’re going to set it up so any future anti-Israel president will be deposed in a military coup
Men will focus on the not so important part of your argument in order to claim you're being unreasonable and emotional. It's a tactic they know well. Then they can go back and tell people you were mad about A when it was really B so you look crazy and he gets to play victim.
comments & quotes full of people saying I made ts up but even fucking trinity caught on that all his "issues" with aniya just boiled down to lust. idek what to say atp, kc's fanbase is full of dumbasses & misogynists but we knew that already #loveislandusa
Immediately after Oct. 7, Bill Ackman and his ilk organized a blacklist to bar Americans criticizing Israel from ever having a job in finance, law, Silicon Valley, etc. That led to a wave of mass firings over Israel.
Totally unsurprising that this created a massive backlash:
I will ALWAYS remind ppl that US birthright citizenship was created for Black Americans to secure their citizenship after slavery. It's a perfect example of how laws uplifting Black America have a universal benefit in the long run.
This is why I call him a coward and I’m glad Aniya did too. He had multiple chances to suggest a friendship couple if he truly felt he had nothing in common with her. He didn’t. Instead, he leaned into the “black love” narrative early on and was scared to be unraveled when Sol came, so he didn’t explore. He knew he was struggling with the rejection of day one and that he had no feelings for her and kept stringing her along because he wanted to have his cake and eat it too. A friendship couple would’ve given him the opportunity to do whatever he wanted to do but he refused to admit he was using her as a safe option like she suspected. Everyone keeps acting like ethical exploration has never been a thing on love island and I’m so sick of it. He’s just a coward.
