English, enough Italian to get by. I recently started Japanese again (only know words my Dad taught me, he left when I was young so I stopped being spoken to in Japanese).

@Carl-Richard

@Carl-Richard not to derail but how do we feel about sardines? Major component of my diet. The only tuna I consume is tuna Tataki my dad makes once a month for me. Funnily enough, I cannot eat canned tuna - massive headaches and general feeling of being unwell after. Tataki is raw seared tuna. It is expensive so it amounts to around 70-100g total. Herring, sardines, rainbow trout & a tiny amount of salmon constitute the rest of my fish consumption. I love gummy shark but it is a mercury nightmare!

@Jordan of the Shire Thanks man! Right back at ya 💪

Yep! I've seen a few clips of breakdowns, looking at the other dogs reaction as the scraggy boss comes in. Fascinating !

Yep, she is okay with dogs smaller or her size. Larger dogs it's a total no. She is quite reactive on the lead also. There is an awareness she cannot escape on the lead - she is less reactive when off lead and is around a larger dog. There is some ability to recognise she cannot escape while on the lead. I'm quite fascinated by animal psychology.

@integral my dog has an issue as a result of a remarkably similar situation, only she doesn't get defensive when she sees a larger dog or child. She runs in fear with a full tail tuck. The fear is so intense she will run into traffic with zero awareness. I can never let her off the lead now, as a result. Except in small enclosed spaces. Lucky I have a large outdoor rooftop dog run she can move freely in. Similar trauma - different pathology in behaviour developed!

@Carl-Richard this is the basis of how I was defining the term in this application. As in, literally the cat had a maladaptive, disorganised behaviour pattern originating from whatever caused it.

I don't know the full story behind the cat that went crazy - but it was put down after it scratched the shit out of my neighbours daughters eye. She went blind in the eye! The cat had a different temperament originally. Totally normal, then around age 7 developed some sort of rage issue that permanently shifted it's personality for 2 years before... The eye incident. Haha, I just recalled Anastasia mentioning the evil cat in your Demystifysci Podcast ep @Leo Gura

Yes - my neighbours cat had to be put down because it developed some sort of rage syndrome. The cat was assaulting him whenever it saw him initially. Then the cat begun assaulting any human it saw. (Assaulting isnt the proper term, I just can't think of a better one). Dogs can experience trauma. You see it in their behaviour. Dogs that are abused by people, or exposed to too much too early develop chronic fear problems. But whether this is a mental disorder or a survival/fear based conditioning is up for debate. Conditioning could be what all mental disorders are. Not really agreeing or disagreeing here. I just think it's gets murky with higher order intelligent animals. Personality disorder, though? I do not think an animal can have that. It's all human definitions.

But you don't add healthy oils to food? You don't add oils at all?!?! I use a lot of EVO in my daily foods.

Yes. I might add - and action and application. Action action action.

@Elliott again. Not all incels hate women. That doesn't mean that none do. Most do as a result of looking to attribute responsibility for their situation. My point still stands.

@Elliott I admire the persistence, but you need to work on the egoic attachment to being correct.

Hahaha, I see you cherry picking your sources and hiding replies that are proving my point again... Nice try nice try. Haha

There's no need for that. You are upset. Try to empty in a constructive way. It's just a technicality you were wrong about. It's not some huge character flaw. Just a factual thing. Let it go. You will feel better.

@Elliott in addition - the wiki entry is wrong. Incels as a culture did not arise after Elliot Rogers. It existed well before that. I was in those online spaces at the time. I recall it all.

Exactly. They often do, but not all. You just proved my point.

No need to be upset, just educate yourself.

Many times it's the men who don't speak who are the real threat. The hatred is in the action. Online hate is one thing. Many people talk a big talk. But hatred shown in action is disgusting. This is when it violates another's sovereignty and concent. It doesn't mean speaking hatred of women is right. But the acting out is infinitely more damning...

Those are some definitions from strange sources. GQ magazine hahahaha. Picking our little cherries. You need to look up where these terms originated from. They have been adopted by subcultures. But it's not what the mean. Or doesn't not mean they hate women. You don't even know what they mean and used the bastardized version without even knowing it. Nice try, though.

@Elliott incel means INvolitarily CELibate It doesn't mean all that shit tacked on. Those definitions aren't accurate.

I'm asking if you think this is true in all contexts?

@Elliott not all incels hate women. Consider you might be operating from a stereotype there. 2 of my best mates are incels. They do not hate or resent women. Sure, some do, but they do not hate women because they are incels.

When I was your age - I recall having many jobs and jumping often. I knew many didn't fit. My only guiding force during this time was 'whatever I do, go hard or go home'. I never wanted to waste my time. So even when I worked a shit job, I worked to my own high standards, regardless of how I felt about the job and if I was proficient. Or if it was the right role or fit. I just made sure to go hard. This ended up meaning I was always promoted up quickly. Because of this, new connections opened. New job opportunities in different areas. I worked in fields that typically needed qualification, but this was disregarded due to aptitiude and work ethic. I ended up finding the right job for me this way. Not saying what I did was correct. Not even sure that it will help; but even if you have a job that's temporary. That you know isn't a career yet. Work at it. Work hard at it. Speak your truth through action. Earnest, focussed, conscientious & diligent work will get you noticed, and open up doors you never thought possible. And just maybe - one of those doors will be the dream job. So better do something while you figure it out, and go hard at it 👊
