Do you not see why someone would want to avoid spontaneous unexpected exposure therapy when they're trying to watch a movie with their friends or something? What's good when performed by a psychologist is not always good.

Nobody will get banned as long as LW refrains from deploying the bant against maniac. Should the deterrence of mutually assured banter finally be broken by the human thirst for self-destruction all bets are off, we might as well wipe the server then and there.

I agree with this.

[Rolan7]

Haha, yeah sure, Clinton is just as progressive as Sanders

Where exactly did I say that?

Actually sorry, you didn't.  My bad.
I found your reply confusing and misinterpreted it through the lens of what I had been talking about.

I think we should move towards non-proliferation of culturally enriched grade banter, so as to avoid a world in which one mistake may cause total mutually assured devastating banter

This may turn into an awful Hentai yet.

... What?

You best start believing you're already in one:

Former President Bill Clinton was a much more frequent flyer on a registered sex offender’s infamous jet than previously reported, with flight logs showing the former president taking at least 26 trips aboard the “Lolita Express” -- even apparently ditching his Secret Service detail for at least five of the flights, according to records obtained by FoxNews.com.
Clinton’s presence aboard Jeffrey Epstein’s Boeing 727 on 11 occasions has been reported, but flight logs show the number is more than double that, and trips between 2001 and 2003 included extended junkets around the world with Epstein and fellow passengers identified on manifests by their initials or first names, including “Tatiana.” The tricked-out jet earned its Nabakov-inspired nickname because it was reportedly outfitted with a bed where passengers had group sex with young girls.

Lmao Epstein, he called it Lolita express
You guys are gonna get Saville

Also Elijah Wood has already backed down over Pedowood
Rip in pease his acting career

This convo about triggering triggers has triggered me.

I agree with this.

Fear is the mind killer. Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration.

I think it's proof that in some cases the more obvious you are the less people care, but if you try to hide it you tacitly admit wrong and people try to expose you

PTSD isn't a bad thing to look at. When someone is having trouble, the right thing is for them to work through it, not spend every July 1st demanding that no one in the neighborhood set off any fireworks.

[mainiac]

Were there trigger warnings at your last July 4th?

Damn, that Miss Typical SJW is even busier then I thought!

[Ghills]

Avoidance only reinforces PTSD. It's literally the opposite of what you should be doing to treat it.

Trigger warnings are designed to help survivors avoid reminders of their trauma, thereby preventing emotional discomfort. Yet avoidance reinforces PTSD. Conversely, systematic exposure to triggers and the memories they provoke is the most effective means of overcoming the disorder. According to a rigorous analysis by the Institute of Medicine, exposure therapy is the most efficacious treatment for PTSD, especially in civilians who have suffered trauma such as sexual assault. For example, prolonged exposure therapy, the cognitive behavioral treatment pioneered by clinical psychologists Edna B. Foa and Barbara O. Rothbaum, entails having clients close their eyes and recount their trauma in the first-person present tense. After repeated imaginal relivings, most clients experience significant reductions in PTSD symptoms, as traumatic memories lose their capacity to cause emotional distress. Working with their therapists, clients devise a hierarchy of progressively more challenging trigger situations that they may confront in everyday life. By practicing confronting these triggers, clients learn that fear subsides, enabling them to reclaim their lives and conquer PTSD.

In a controlled therapeutic setting over a period of time, desensitization can be very effective.   But it's a not a magic switch - it doesn't work right away, doesn't always work completely, and doesn't work for everyone.  So trigger warnings are still a good thing.  Not everyone with PTSD knows it (it took me a surprising amount of time to figure out what was causing my panic attacks), can get into therapy, or does well with therapy.

People with asthma often have a maintenance medication and an emergency inhaler. People with allergies have daily medications and epi-pens.  People with PTSD need therapy and also sometimes trigger warnings.  People are fine with the first 2 but not with the third for reasons that often boil down to 'it's inconvenient and also I don't like it', which isn't a reason to knock down people who are moving too slowly, succumb to road rage or drop the f-bomb at a family dinner but apparently is a good enough reason to cause panic attacks.

I did an bing image search for "miss typical sjw"


I don't think she's a SJW. She is pretty attractive, though. (It also showed me WORDS and MEN :V) Presumably the content on the page was SJW-ey, but since the site/page is locked down so nobody can access it without a username and password...
(Google image search showed me women but nobody "bustier"*)

_{* yes, I deliberately misread that}
