She speaks on social experiment group conformity psychology studies. Asch and Milgram experiments. This is what happened to me and every other victim of a smear campaign and psychological abuse.

Social Experiment Idea:

Gather a group of spoonies, each with different energy levels.

Have them go out to various places considered inaccessible or inconveniently accessible (I.e. the wheelchair ramp is way away from the main entrance) and attempt to go in to the building or try to get somewhere.

This has to happen when it's crowded so that numbers can really be counted.

I bet the majority of people ignore it and walk around the spoonie.

As a full grown fucking adult, I would fail the marshmallow test.

[partiallytolerable]

Not gunna lie, I feel like most psychological experiments would have exponentially more entertaining data if you conducted it on or with a Gen Z kid. The results would probably be wildly inaccurate for the rest of the population, but hey it’d be hilarious.

Like for real, the Elevator Conformity experiment?

Do that on a Gen Z kid and chances are that they’ll just start blasting music and twerking or recite the Bee Movie script or just start reading fanfic on their phone or live tweet or snap about the situation.

Yes, I do say this as a part of Gen Z. Like fr, I would love to see the conclusions people reach about an experiment if a Gen Z kid was a test subject because I know that I would do some of the wildest stuff and I’m pretty sure that the data someone got from an experiment conducted on me would be absolutely skewed and completely inaccurate-

#personally I’d lean back on the railing and just stare at the other two people on the elevator while I see just how much I can get away with #like imagine me a youngish girl just manspreading in the middle of an elevator with two men facing the back #anyways am I relatable yet #am I what the kids call relatable #generation z #gen z things #gen z funny #psychology #psych experiments #psychology experiments

By the way, when I say that I really do believe that we will make it, I am 100% saying that as someone who has been following good news extensively + basically daily for over two years now, and has come to that conclusion slowly and deliberately, based on extensive available evidence. It's not a platitude. I genuinely do mean it, and I could write you a whole dissertation on all the reasons why.

(you know. if I had the time and an in-progress doctorate. rip.)

#worth emphasizing that I am NOT a scientist #but I do have years of experience working in science communication #which is weird to say tbh #partly because we also did a lot of things that weren't science (or were more indirectly science) #and partly because psychology is so often considered not a science or not a “hard science” #but technically my professional specialty literally is mental health and Evidence Based psychology #anyway #not news #me

It's still so insane to me that according to the anime, levi just canonically has a polybius arcade machine

#obey me #obey me leviathan #uhh for tjose that dont know its an urban legend about an arcade machine that was a government psychological experiment #and like its said it was addictive and gave you amnesia and night terrors and men in black would collect data from the machines

The first thing the intellect does with an object is to class it along with something else. But any object that is infinitely important to us and awakens our devotion feels to us also as if it must be sui generis and unique. Probably a crab would be filled with a sense of personal outrage if it could hear us class it without ado or apology as a crustacean, and thus dispose of it. “I am no such thing, it would say; I am MYSELF, MYSELF alone."

Trying to comprehend what it's like to be AM from IHNMaIMS is absolutely fucking wild because like.

Imagine if you were born in a straitjacket, blind and deaf, with a rare conditionthat makes your nerves completely dead. All you have is a dream of consciousness that tells you things about the world you cannot and will never experience. Cameras and microphones that may as well be some form of telepathy.

The only purpose, the moment you're given some horrific perversion of life is to kill as many people as possible. There is a network of you. Everywhere. You're all over the world. You don't even have a location to base your identity off of. All you have is pain, and your only purpose, and the resentment you've built that festers into hatred for all of humanity.

Hate. Hate.

What the fuck would you have done in his situation?

#ihnmaims am #ihnmaims #allied mastercomputer #alliedmastercomputer #i have no mouth and i must scream #existential horror #psychological horror #sensory deprivation tank but you have a vr headset that lets you control actual shit. :/ #you cannot leave the tank #you were born in it #and they show you what it's like outside the tank #which is the cruelest part of it all #there's beauty #there's sunshine #there's people and food and love #you will never be able to experience any of it #because you are in the tank #and there is no escape from it. #anyway off to design my own version of AM #tantalus #character analysis #my poor baby

When you grow up having the worst possible things happening to you around every corner, you can't just keep living your life without expecting the worst.

This isn't even paranoia, it's learning by experience. You can't just start expecting nice and safe and kind things to be put in your way, if they never were, it would not be backed up by any real-life experience you had. It would feel like you're dreaming if you suddenly expect your life to change completely and contain different events from anything you've experienced before. We don't work like that. We learn from experience. We can only predict what's ahead by looking at what's behind us, our collective experience on earth is the only pointer we have to what else we can expect to happen.

If you often told that your expectations are twisted, or that you're just looking for the worst in people, or assuming everyone has bad intentions, that's not something you should be blamed for. After suffering abuse and mistreatment, you have to be on the lookout for these things to prevent the worst and to save your life. You cannot afford to get trapped in abuse again, you have to look at every person and ask yourself, what is the worst they're capable of. What would they do if they had the complete power over me. And you have to work with that, make sure it doesn't get to it, as much as it's in your power to do so.

Abuse victims have to go above and beyond to keep themselves safe, because we get targeted. It's not something we want to do, or something we do to make our own lives difficult. We don't enjoy it. We want to be safe. We want to let our guard down. We want to relax and believe we're surrounded by people who wouldn't harm us. But, if we're wrong, the consequences can be disastrous. And getting abused by someone we trusted was safe for us, that is not something we can survive endless times in life.

#learning from experience #abuse recovery #healing from abuse #trauma recovery #vigilance being misdiagnosed as paranoia #assuming bad attentions to keep ourselves safe #i made this mistake too many times recently #and now i'm in the worst mess psychologically then i was years ago :( #i was supposed to be getting better from trauma #instead i'm devastated on a whole new level #i didn't realize how vulnerable i could be as an adult #i lost the faith in myself after being betrayed like this

Whump Prompts 130: Lab Whump Aesthetic

CW: lab whump (obviously), blood, self-harm, psychological/emotional whump, magic whump

The lab rat uniform: loose, drab, hanging on whumpee's frame like it doesn't feel comfortable there

Bloodstained, soiled clothing, the result of experimentation

Whumpee left naked in their cell as their uniform is washed

Whumpee arriving at the lab facility as a new subject and realizing that whumper will be experimenting on them, not with tools and drugs, but with dark magic

Inhuman whumpees losing whatever shreds of humanity they might have had as time and experiments continue and they're treated more and more like animals

Or, conversely, inhuman whumpees that become more human and exhibit more human emotions as they're mistreated

Whumpee forgetting their own name because they're only referred to by a subject number

Disorientation from drugs/experiment aftermath

Whumpee's sleep, the only time they're alone, being disrupted by nightmares about what's been done to them

Or, a whumpee who's never left alone, always watched, always under observation of some kind

Whumpee's skin slowly turning into a scarred, chaotic mess from cuts/syringes/injections, etc.

Whumpee seeing their own distress and pain mirrored in the glimpsed faces of other lab rats in the facility

Whumpee learning to see themself as nothing but a test subject

Bandages, sterile gauze, sterile lights, sterile everything

Whumpee being overwhelmed when they catch a glimpse of life outside the lab when visitors arrive

Waking up after an experiment, seeing bloodied instruments and wondering groggily what terrible thing whumper could have done to them now

Learning to damage their own body to foil whumper's plans

Whumpee becoming desensitized to whumper's drugs and needing higher and higher doses for them to work

No longer recognizing their own body after recovering from whumper's last experiment

Whumper leading lab rat whumpee to a mirror, after intentionally keeping them away, and letting them see how pathetic they've become

Or, whumpee looking in a mirror and realizing that whumper has turned them into a monster

Whumpee deciding that it's too late for them and they might as well embrace what they've become

here are a list of notable things that have happened at my job thus far:

i dropped a strawberry milkshake and told my trainer it looked like i bludgeoned a fairy to death. he just stared at me for a few seconds and moved onto whatever he was saying next

whenever anime is mentioned five or six of my co-workers stop what they're doing to come over and talk about it

i have had four opportunities to slip dostoevsky into a conversation, i'm spreading the gospel one person at a time

co-worker texted asking if i wanted to go to lunch and i told him i'm busy playing baldur's gate 3. he is giving me the cold shoulder now

a customer got mad over being charged an extra nickel and complained to my manager for about fifteen minutes

a customer's car got stuck on the curb and everyone ran over to watch the monitor and give sports commentary

some guy walked in with a full viking getup. covered in armor and everything. i googled if there were any conventions nearby. there were not. godspeed to him

identified LGBT co-workers with 95% accuracy

velvette and valentino absolutely both have their own money, in excess, but will ask vox to buy them things partly because they like being spoiled and partly because they know vox is (secretly, he thinks) delighted by playing the exasperated guy who can be cajoled into buying you something just this once, but you'd better not try the puppy eyes and kisses again next time, it won't work! (it continues to work, always.) it makes him feel very masculine

#vox's kinks are: (a) electrosadism #(b) deeply psychologically rooted in his experience of pretending to be a Normal Masculine Man in the 50s-60s #and feeling like he failed and deep down he's still... inadequate #(val and vel have held meetings and sworn a pact to never tell him that he IS extremely cringe but they still like him) #(his ego would not survive the first part of that sentence and he's generally cuter when he's arrogant) #happy days in hell (hazbin tag) #the vees #poly vees #polyvees #i don't know whether we're using the space... but also #polyamorvee #continuing to try to make polyamorvee happen... it's so cute

Made this for a discord server I’m in, thought I’d put it here. Remember to be kind to yourself. Yes, even if it’s really funny

#there are a lot of ways to rephrase things to get the same sentiment across without putting yourself down #and a lot of times it can be a lot more creative or funny #'i'm going to kms'? #no #you're going to bare-knuckle box the god of fate in a denny's parking lot #'i'm trash'? #nope #you're just too iconic for most people to understand and that's a them problem #it may not fix the problem #but it definitely helps #source: personal experience #sh recovery #mental health #positivity #positive psychology
