Reminds me of this Ciocan quote: “love does not disolve distance but infinitely preserves it.”

@htomufc Why do you think United haven’t gone in for Alonso?

[Wesley Mc Lachlan @wesmac5]

@Jamie_Roach Thank you Jamie! Yes I absolutely can. What’s your email?

On my way back from an incredible time at CAPS! Really love that there’s so many people working on the intersection of psychoanalysis and theology!

I’d pay good money to see a reaction of an American going to Italy and dipping pizza in ranch at a restaurant.

Hidden Valley is hiring "Ranch-bassadors" to travel Europe and test ranch on local food

The brand will send two duos across multiple European countries with all expenses paid to create content

@JayceLong Yeah this makes sense!

@tenshi_anna Wow, that’s strong. Wicked? I mean I know that he was too ambiguous about it, but would love to know how that was baked into his philosophy? Zionism and responsibility for the other don’t seem compatible.

@AAJDeVille1 You know I already looked at your list! Ha. Thank you. I just ordered Black’s book. It looks really good.

[Wesley Mc Lachlan @wesmac5]

Best books you've read on the intersection of religion/spirituality and psychoanalysis?

@tenshi_anna Have you read Sarah Coakley’s stuff on this?

[Wesley Mc Lachlan @wesmac5]

@JayceLong @proud_penelope Ha! I’m curious what were your thoughts were on it?

Leo’s South African accent is awful. Sounded more Australian.

Leonardo DiCaprio’s performance in Blood Diamond is some of the best work of Leo’s career. I think he deserved this Oscar over Forest Whitaker for The Last King of Scotland, but I go back-and-forth because it’s such a close call. Definitely a great film worthy of a lot of praise.

@drantbradley My spiritual director is a EO priest. He’s had 50 converts in the past year alone. EO is growing so much nation wide he said they need to be producing around 300 more priests a year to keep up.

I’m convinced that collaborative, empathetic, relational care is the major driving force behind good outcomes in mental health treatment. A corollary of this is that any time there is a differential between clinicians providing such care and clinicians deficient in such care — say, the former preferentially uses diagnosis/treatment A and the latter preferentially uses diagnosis/treatment B, it will look as if the good outcomes are due to the diagnosis/treatment when in fact they are largely due to the therapeutic relationship and the effect it has on the experience of treatment.
