It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

My last therapist tried to get me to organize various negative and positive thoughts I have throughout the day. Which was fine but she was a little insistent we make 4 categories and name them Harry Potter houses. She also once said "My job is to make you a better employee."
Wow that's terrible. My head would literally explode if mine said either of those things. My therapist and i have actually talked about the fact that me being psychologically more integrated and healthy actively makes it more duffucult for me to be employed, because we live in a sick system
🤢
This is my issue with therapy - ultimately I'm actually very okay with the things that are "wrong" with me. They're only "wrong" because they make it significantly more difficult for me to be an exploitable source of labor. If I wasn't constantly being pressured into being more willing to accept my own exploitation, then I would be drastically more relaxed. The best they're gonna do is give me better coping strategies, which like... I guess that's cool?
Once I told her I have a problem getting to work on time, and that's because I often practice quitting in the mirror before I lose my nerve and just go to work. I do this ritual because I can't stand my job and want to be free of it
Her advice was that I should make a weekly schedule on paper to wake up earlier, so I can more effectively get to work. Completely missing the main issue
What the fuck...
