What is often called 'the science of psychology' is in fact a symptom characterized by the compulsive accumulation of data aimed at satisfying the unconscious wish to disprove the reality of the unconscious and its contents.

[Lacanian Foothold @BTholfsen]

There are many ways to define the goal of clinical psychoanalysis,

but developing a conscience and

standing up to the sadistic super ego,
neither embracing nor capitulating to it,

should be added to the list.

The relationship between commitment and doubt is by no means an antagonistic one. Commitment is healthiest when it is not without doubt but in spite of doubt.

The subjective structural positions that one can take in analysis, AND “subtypes.”

For psychosis: paranoia; schizophrenia; melancholia; and mania.

For neurosis: hysteria; obsessional. (Sometimes also: phobia.)

Perversion: a third structure.

Autism: proposed as a fourth. 🧵

In the age of AI, the reader struggles because the writer doesn't have to.

[Katherine Argent @effthealgorithm]

Search is full of ads and wrong answers. Every other email is an ad. Prime Video charges you and shows ads. Paramount? Ads. Peacock? YouTube? Hulu? Ads followed by more ads. Netflix full of ads. Meta and X, every other thing is an ad. Pinterest is nothing but ads. AI is in everything. AI finishes sentences incorrectly and won’t stop.

Oh sorry, your phone can’t handle this update. Now it’s useless. Go get the newest phone. Here’s a text from a friend, an email, a voice mail they left three days ago but you didn’t see until now because of sync problems with the cloud. It’s their GoFundMe. Their MLM. Their Patreon. Never mind, you didn’t respond to their text within 9 minutes and now you’re no longer friends. They blocked you. Make new friends. Download this app to find people in your area.

Why don’t you like AI, it lets us make all of this easier? Do you know how ridiculous that sounds? This is progress. You’ll be left behind. Do you want to be left behind? Do you???

Ser psicoanalista es comprometerse pacientemente a acompañar al analizante en sus esfuerzos por decirse la verdad junto su deseo de seguir mintiéndose…

[The Mel Jar @the_mel_jar]

“The analytic formation proceeds by a passage through analysis that destabilizes not just the symptom, but the subject’s position toward desire itself. The analyst is someone for whom this traversal has yielded not resolution, but a new form of relation to lack, a desire that is unmoored from utility, benevolence, or comprehension. This type of desire arises only within the analytic process, and only as its consequence. One does not possess this desire prior to entering analysis. One cannot will it, simulate it, or aspire to it. It is produced or, rather, it emerges as the byproduct of an experience that radically alters one’s relation to suffering, to speech, and to the body.”

[The Mel Jar @the_mel_jar]

Unironically, the goal of psychoanalysis.
