hi I’m a baby philosophy enthusiast who’s also interested in psychology, I wanted to know your thoughts about Freud as a philosopher
hmm… I haven’t read a lot of Freud’s original works sadly. but whatever little I have I can say for sure that he is heavily misinterpreted and misrepresented. a lot of people are quick to criticise him but very few acknowledge the fact that he has shaped modern psychology greatly, especially the psychotherapeutic aspect, in my understanding. and even in refuting his ideas, theories such as, Erik Erikson’s psychosocial development theory and defence mechanisms by his own daughter, Anna Freud (who should be a little more recognised) came up. he is very problematic, no doubt in that, but he also deserves the recognition or “hype” he gets.
btw spoiler alert: his interpretation of the Oedipus and electra complex is not what you are made to believe it is

user gayu, miss your partner updates. need to know and live vicariously through out T○T. also as a fellow phil student in Kolkata need to know your thoughts on chomsky vs. fouccault
helu
my partner is doing very good! just a little overwhelmed with applications these days so we are unable to hang out often heh. one update I can give you iisss that we are about to celebrate our one year anniversary as a couple soon and we are both very excited 😭 we do not have anything planned yet because our schedules are so packed but would love it if anyone could suggest anything fun and cost effective considering we’re students.
about Foucault and Chomsky… I don’t think I have read their original discussions yet, and so cannot comment on it. I would love to first read it (possibly find some source to actually hear or watch it?) and then get back to you. however, I have indulged in their individual works. I had a whole phase where I was so obsessed with Chomsky and his ideas on nativism and LAD I would rant about it to everyone (I am very much inclined towards linguistics and behaviour) Foucault is revolutionary, and I have had my own phase with him, as well. I think I am still going through it a little bit.
but if there is one philosopher that I particularly enjoy refuting and disagreeing with its Descartes. and also Peter Singer takings on animal rights also rubs me a little wrong so let me know if you’d like to talk about that

no one told me the repercussions of dating someone who’s obsessed with Punjabi music. it’s like that’s all he listens to. I am glad you are serenading one love by shubh to me babe, but i have zero clue what are they talking about

"You ship Jegulus because you HATE Lily Evans!"
Au Contraire,
I ship Jegulus because I want Lily Evans all to myself.

effie and monty would tell everyone james brought home to call them by their first names. sirius does so almost enthusiastically because he was never allowed to refer to adults like that before. regulus short circuits and physically cannot do call them that because he was never allowed to refer to adults like that.

barry crouch jr in goblet of fire impersonating mad-eye except he immediately tells harry exactly who he is and what voldemort and peter have instructed him to do and helps harry prepare to defeat the dark lord because
“your dad dated my best friend when we were in hogwarts”
“my mother was your best friend?”
“no, not lily. someone else before her. he did a lot of things wrong. but in the end it wasn’t too late for him to be brave. and it’s not too late for me too”
i am unrealistic and gay

"Sapphic Wolfstar this" "Sapphic Jegulus that" What about we start paying attention to all the Sapphic ships we already have instead of just transforming mlm ships into wlw???

YOU'RE ONLINE AND BACK user gayu if there were a luxury brand (dior, gucci) which one would match your vibes
lmaooo yes
I had deadlines and just got a small summer break
I think I would be something like miumiu on a casual day or Schiaparelli
Miu Miu has a very unique style that I like.. they have this scarf that is straight out of my dreams.
Schiaparelli well I love their asymmetrical designs? And even their lobster skirt is so good. idk why it has not been worn by anyone yet

I was meant to swim in the sea alongside the coast my mother grow up at… my summers were supposed to be spent sun bathing with my very attractive boyf, possibly making out behind a tree and reading so much literature, philosophical, fictional, non-fictional. just read to fill the void within me…
now im spending my summers in a horrid city of a concrete jungle that i hate, faraway from my boyf because he chose to be a stem major.

James was the mum friend in a "wraps you in a soft blanket and makes you tea when you're not feeling well" way.
Sirius needed someone to love him.
Remus needed someone to accept him.
Peter needed someone to value him.
And James made sure each of them went to bed smiling.
Regulus was the mum friend in a "chasing you around the house screaming at you to not put forks in the plug sockets" way.
Evan had no regard for safety, his own or others.
Barty has no impulse control.
Pandora did dangerous experiments on a daily basis.
Dorcas would do just about anything if you paid her enough.
And Regulus was just trying to keep those fucking idiots alive.
