and i’ve mentioned this before but the common conception that ppl who constantly suffer become desensitized to suffering is perfectly wrong. ppl who experience repeated psychological and physiological stressors, esp in childhood, actually become more responsive to stress, w stress response systems in the brain & body getting increasingly sensitive to stimuli and having more prolonged/exaggerated reactions  

what doesn’t kill you does not make you stronger, it makes you sicker and less able to cope biologically and emotionally w additional hardship

I just read the words “consider getting a mindset coach” as defined as a person that helps you change patterns of behavior,,, you mean like a therapist bro?? You mean like going to therapy??? You mean like analyzing your own behavior and talking through it with someone??

Bank fandom shut up in the notes

Hi I worked in banking for 5 years and bank-fans in the notes can shut the fuck up

You know perfectly well the whole edifice is immoral.  I know that you know because *I* know.  Some of you have sat where I have sat, two weeks before Christmas, trying to explain to a crying account holder that we cannot return over $300 in fees, even though the bank does not need that money

The bank didn’t have that money before

the bank didn’t have any expectation of that money, because getting it was total happenstance (with a side of intentionally arranging order-of-clearance to fuck people over as much as possible)

The money was earmarked arbitrarily and TAKEN, and if it was given back, nothing would significantly change for the bank, because giving the money back would only return the bank to the state of affairs before it earmarked and took the money

but it would change EVERYTHING for the human being currently crying their eyes out at your desk

You damned well know.  Shut the fuck up.
