Why doesn't anyone want to just help me? Everyone wants to pass me around like a hot potato. I'm tired of hearing I need a higher level of care. Just freaking use whatever it is you learned from your degree and give me something that can help. I don't want to be told to do iop, php, inpatient, or whatever every time I can't keep it together. I feel like I'm just a problem in people's lives.

[trans-axolotl]

hi! i'm 15, and currently in a PHP program for my mental health. I'm scared as fuck because my new therapist is telling me I may need antipsychotics and made me do a dissociation questionaire and was like "wow you scored real high on this" and psychosis has always been that thing I can't have because I'm not /that/ mentally fucked right?

so your post about psychosis and schizophrenia was really helpful! thank you!!

💜💜💜💜

I'm glad my post was helpful! I can definitely understand how it could feel overwhelming to learn that you might be getting a new diagnosis and getting put on new medications, especially if it's in a context where people might be talking about those experiences using more stigmatizing or negative or clinical language that feels scary. but know that there are people experiencing psychosis/altered states of all kinds that are still living the lives they want , and that psychosis is not always the "worst case scenario." there's a lot of resources out there and a lot of people living with psychosis who we still build valuable and meaningful lives and adapt and cope with the particular ways our distress and pain shows up in our lives.

truly wishing you the best, anon, and feel free to reach out if you end up wanting some more resources about living with and coping with psychosis that aren't just talking about it in a pathologizing way!

I

I just

I finished it!!!

I finished building the entire website. 62 hours of work in 5 days, but I did it. And I'm grudgingly embracing Elementor Pro, since the DOTU website's last major update took me a full month of coding and CSS wrangling and Lynda tutorials and fumbling my way through php since I'm not an actual programmer.

It's also screen reader friendly (I learned to use Mac's built-in voiceover for this), and the episodes have full alt text and expandable transcripts! More on that later...

The episode thumbnails are all placeholders, since I only have the first episode actually "done," and the rest are at various stages of inking or finished pencils. I also ran out of promo art since I've been focusing on pages, so I may swap out images later on. But the actual physical website is fully put together and functional.

I'm not sure when I'll delete all the dummy posts and migrate it from the local development server to the live site. I mean, probably soon, but I need a break. I did this immediately after June's Patreon rewards, so it was an 80-hour stretch without a day off. My brain goes into a very different mode when I do tech stuff, and time ceases to exist, haha.

So yeah, gonna take several days off if I can. I've been living on protein smoothies for a week and I need groceries.

🗝️🏷️ mentions of RAMCOA programming and other abuse

We got family therapy. Twice. Both times we were so excited, going in hoping beyond hope that this would fix all of us. It took 7 years straight of begging and weaseling around defenses (from age 9 to 16).

The first time was in a PHP/IOP center, and the focus was still only on us. We were there for treatment, so we were the problem; the therapist only spoke about what we were doing wrong in the dynamic. When we got about ten minutes before or after to talk to her, we told her some of the lighter abuses — enough to get CPS called, but not enough to be taken away. We had disclosed emotional physical and sexual abuse. She told us that “everybody shows their ass around family.”

The second time was maybe a few months later, a referral to a real family therapist who also used CBT/DBT. Everybody’s walls were back up, and we all fawned like our lives depended on it. We were reprimanded nearly as much as our father, who would threaten violence and stand up every time he felt disrespected. She even told us off for using “mother dear” — it comes from a memoir about abuse, and our mother asked to be called that after reading it.

This time, too, whatever we disclosed was brushed off. She made sure to include everybody’s feelings in every decision, and that meant no reporting if there was a show of redress. Our family lied, we all fought and cued each other under the therapist’s nose, and eventually she decided we never needed family therapy to begin with.

We haven’t gone back to family therapy. Our collective opinion is that we live at university now, and that the family house hasn’t been home since we learned to sleep elsewhere.

We used to want a functional family more than anything. I don’t believe we’ll get that until everybody learns to unfawn. Deprogramming is hard, and probably not something we could safely do as a family. None of the rest of them will get there until they get over the therapy program, and we have tried every way we know how to undo it for them. We can’t.

Those therapists should not have been family therapists. The first one had opinions of children that invalidated all of their lived experiences, and the second couldn’t recognize dissociation even though she knew what it was. I can think of maybe three total skills our family got from both of them, and two of them just reinforce the don’t-talk/don’t-tell programs that make the family unit look normal.

This was in a city, with hundreds of therapists. Our family is still dysfunctional and under old coercion. The work is hard, but even a well-to-do family with near unlimited resources can’t find help. I don’t see us doing family therapy, but we can at least be a better resource than what we had.

Holiday Break Productivity

As a lady born in the year of the "Horse" 🐎, it is a natural characteristic of ours to always do something productive, even during breaks. This holiday break should have been a rest or game day for me, but instead I practiced my drawing skill and continued reading "Ikigai," which I hadn't opened in weeks.

I've been practicing different "emotions or feelings" in chibi, as I haven't drawn chibis in a while.

I used to sketch "anime" rather than chibis or illustration back in elementary because I was a big fan of ✨ 90s anime ✨ like Fushigi Yuugi, Ghost Fighter, Ranma 1/2, Flame of Recca, Hell Teacher Nūbē, Oh my Goddess!, Sakura CardCaptor, Boys Be, Gatekeepers, Slam Dunk, HunterxHunter, Sailor Moon, and many more.

Unfortunately, I don't have a copy of my sketches today because I used to draw on notebooks or pad papers - I remember back in primary school, my classmates would pay me PHP 5.00 - 20.00 💰💰💰 (yup! business-minded since I was a kid 🤣) to draw their favorite anime which technically honed my skill in creating anime art and marketing/sales, but as I grew older, I outgrown drawing animes and now I prefer to draw still life or illustrations/chibis since I love anything kawaii and sketching beautiful landscape or places.

Book Review: Ikigai (Chapter 1 to 3)

I promised myself to finish this book by May 🎯; please don't get me wrong, on why I'm still not done reading this book its because I didn't have a time for reading this past few weeks due to my workload (my job), but this holiday I made sure to allocate 3-4 hours just to read this book and discovered that...

Ikigai is one of my favorite book out of my 7 new self-development books and I am now currently on Chapter 4: How to turn work and free time into space of growth - very timely to what I need nowadays, isn't it? 😀

To give you an idea why I love this book so far, one of the reason is that it tackles on how we determine our life's purpose and reasons to live more, like the centenarians in Okinawa, Japan. It also emphasize the importance of maintaining physical health by staying active even after we reach the age of 60, since sedentary lifestyle can lead to hypertension, imbalanced diet, cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, and even some cancers. Sleep plays an important role in how we can slow the aging process and build our immune system because "melatonin" is a powerful antioxidant in our bodies that contains an ingredient that protects us from cancer, Alzheimer's disease, aging, and other diseases.

This book also discussed "Logotherapy," a therapy developed by Victor Frankl that focuses on people's search for meaning in life. Unlike other therapies, logotherapy takes a spiritual approach. Frankl's logotherapy incorporates three philosophical and psychological concepts: freedom of will, will to meaning, and meaning in life.

Freedom of will asserts that we have the ability to chose and take action in response to both internal and external circumstances.

Will to meaning states that we have the freedom to follow our goal and purposes in life, which means this is our major motive for existing and doing, allowing us to bear pain and suffering.

Meaning in life is a subjective experience, but the meanings exist within us and waiting to be realized by us in any moment or in any situation.

One of the therapies that this book also tackles is the "Morita Therapy," a therapy based on the Buddhist perspective and developed by Dr. Shoma Morita, wherein the therapy focuses more on accepting the fluctuations of thoughts and feelings, embracing negative emotions, and learning how to blend with nature - if you ask me, it is quite similar to what we've learned from Grandmaster Lao Tzu (Taoism) which is

"Go with the flow, Be like water 🌊"

Sounds very profound, isn't it? 🤔 The first time I heard that, I was perplexed: how and why be like water? Then our Grandmaster taught us the value of being fluid, soft, and flexible in any situation, just like water, which takes shape wherever you put it and can adjust to any environmental changes.

Change is inevitable and if you resist it, problems will arise in your life and that's why our ancient philosophers taught us the importance of adaptability, because change is constant and not fixed; our lives are the result of constant change in our environment, feelings, emotions, interpersonal relationships, religion, and so on, and those who adapt easily win life, whereas others rot in the past, are unable to move on with their lives, and are depressed.

Like "Morita Therapy," embrace the imperfections in your life, welcome them with open arms, and acknowledge that the sentiments or emotions you're experiencing are valid. Simply accept how things are and then figure out how to mend them or overcome your own demons.

I'm about halfway through the book, but I'm looking forward to get more insights and teachings from Ikigai.

I definitely suggest this book to everyone who has ever felt empty on the inside, unable to discover their purpose in life, or simply lost.

Sincerely, Ayei 🌻

[whsprings]

feeling urgey and full of despair. I want to be free of my ed and this place but I am unwilling to try to do things differently. I had rounds this morning where I asked to be back on phase 2 and was denied by my therapist because of continued behavior use. my step down to php is in two weeks and I haven't done any passes or outings, and I've only done two phase 2 groups. it just doesn't make sense to let me free into the wild when im also still not trusted to go on a pass. we've also gotten seven new people this week (!) and I have by far been phase 1 the longest and it makes me feel like living garabge that's simply incapable of change. I also learned of a way to check my weight and I am so fucking tempted to look even though I know it won't be helpful and will likely set me back even further. I am essentially trying to become a functional human through sheer willpower and it isn't exactly working. that being said, therapy feels like a waste of time because i feel like my therapist's methods for addressing my behaviors/goals isn't resonating. not sure where to go from here tbh.

SOMEBODY ONCE TOLD ME-

I know it’s been a very long while since our last episode, but after dealing with other projects, along with real life getting in the way from time to time, we’re finally continuing our next part of the second road trip across the Maasrichtian. While it only has 5 segments like the last episode, and does borrow some of last season’s “Freshwater” thunder quite a bit, I still had a good time with Swamps. And the segments presented here do bring a few things to the table for PHP in general. You’ll see what I mean when we get into them.

Snacks on the wing

The episode starts with the wetlands of Asia, where baby azhdarchid pterosaurs are attempting to fly for the first time. Keeping up with this show’s record of baby animals meeting their end, the pterosaurs have to deal with the threat of getting eaten by a horde of Shamosuchus. Unlike the Simosuchus from earlier in the season, these relatives to today’s crocodiles and alligators comfort more to the shape that we’re used to seeing these reptiles in. While I don’t have much to say about this segment, I find it cool how it draws comparisons with how Freshwater crocodiles hunt flying foxes in Australia. Even when millions of years apart, some hunting strategies are just that good.

Gone fishin’

The episode then cuts to the forests of South America, where the focus is on a truly unique animal; Austroraptor. For those not aware, this was a species of raptor dinosaur that was not only huge for its family (Think 20 feet long), it also lived a life of hunting fish. These of these guys like what would happen if a grizzly bear and a heron had a baby together. The plot of this segment shows a young male trying to score some lunch of his own. Many of the larger adults can only only catch garfish like it’s not their problem (which is something that our male is new to), but they can be aggressive, often attacking each other if one of them disrupts the other’s hunt. Until he learns how to catch prey successfully, the best option that the main male has to take is to snatch someone else’s prey, and try not to lose at least a few feathers in the process.

“Hippity hoppity, get off my property”

We then cut back to Madagascar to see the return of another Season 1 veteran. Y’all must’ve loved Beelzebufo so much, you all wanted to see more of the bay dinosaur-eating frog (And I really wouldn’t blame any of y’all). And fortunately, Apple heard everyone’s pleas for the devil toad to return, so here we are! The segment has a male Beelzebufo trying to find a good place to attract a mate. Unfortunately for the frog, a herd of Rapetosaurus just happened to come back and waddle in the mud, making things even harder for the Beelzebufo. That must be frustrating.

The Beelzebufo then has to find a new place to set up his courtship display, away from the titanosaurs. After a bit of hopping around, and even doing this…

Keep on rollin’

Our champ eventually finds a good enough spot to try again, with the Rapetosaurus herd moving on. They even leave footprints in the mud that get filled with water. The only complaint that I have for this scene is the lack of the Beelzebufo raising his eventual tadpoles. The concept art for the devil toad that was made by Gaëlle Seguillon refers to it as “Beelzebufo adult”, so it could be possible that devil tadpoles were considered to be in the show. Either that, or we could see another Beelzebufo-themed segment in a possible Season 3, taking alot of inspiration from how African bullfrog males raise their young. I may or may not be planning to add that to my hypothetical Season 3 idea, so keep your eyes peeled.

Head Games

Despite the episode literally being called “Swamps”, we cut to a dusty plain in North America, where the area in question used to be a swamp that eventually dried up. It’s here where we see the second pachycephalosaur of the series in the form of Pachycephalosaurus itself. It’s no secret that the domed heads of these creatures were used for some sort of territorial display, so we see an older male fighting a younger and rowdy male, who has been causing trouble for the herd. After a long and hard duel, the old male is knocked down, and his younger rival bellows out in victory. This turns out to be a bad idea, as it gives the old male time to get back up and strike down his rival. With the battle lost, the young male is then exiled from the herd, where he has to fend for himself. I’m not gonna lie, he’s gonna need everything in his kit to survive. Y’know why?

In the night, no one can hear you roar

The last segment of the episode shows us how basically terrifying T. Rex can be when hunting. After the last season shows how these giant predators can be doting parents or a loving couple, this segment serves as a reminder that this is still Tyrannosaurus Rex that we’re talking about. When night falls on the floodplains of Hell Creek, a couple of T. Rex brothers stalk around the forest, spying on a group of Edmontosaurus. The two split up, with one of them stepping on a fallen branch, intentionally causing the herd to get nervous. Thanks to their padded feet muffling any heavy footsteps that could be heard, along with their extremely good night vision, the predators spring into action. While one of them lunges for an Edmontosaurus, the latter is sent towards the other T. Rex. With both of them clamping their bone-crushing jaws into their hapless prey, the hunt is soon over, and the two get to enjoy their hard-earned meal. A funny thing to mention is how neither of the T. Rex crashed into the opening, roaring as they charged towards their prey. Large predators cannot afford to waste precious energy by running out and screaming like a mad man, so they need to be careful, often turning to ambush tactics to catch prey. If anything, this instance of averting usual pop-culture depictions of dinosaurs serves to make these beasts scarier than they already were. Unlike the mindless, perpetually roaring and shrinking movie monster that shakes the ground itself with every step, you’d never see or hear the real thing coming, until it’s too late…

This takes the phrase “Bonehead” to a new level

The Uncovered segment of the episode takes a closer look at how pachycephalosaurs like Pachycephalosaurus used their domed heads in fighting. I don’t have alot to say about this part, but I can say that headaches must be a major pain when it comes to these guys.

And with that, we only have 2 episodes left. I apologize for pumping this review out late into the month. Being busy with other projects, along with dealing with real life stuff and being a lazy ass from time to time can do that to you. Nonetheless, the next review on our list covers one of my favorite episodes in the entire series so far, so that’ll be fun when we get to it. Get ready to “dive” in again next time, because we’re gonna be soaking up the thirst of the land.

…I hope you laughed at that joke.

What are the benefits of using PHP or Node.JS for a large project such as an e-commerce website? Which one will load faster, handle more requests per second, and be cheaper in terms of production costs?

Both PHP and Node.js are popular choices for developing e-commerce websites. However, each has its own strengths and weaknesses.

PHP

Benefits:

Mature and stable language with a large community

Easy to learn and use

Wide range of frameworks and libraries available

Relatively inexpensive hosting options

Drawbacks:

Can be slow and inefficient for large and complex applications

Not as well-suited for real-time applications

Node.js

Benefits:

Very fast and efficient, especially for real-time applications

Easy to scale

Large community and ecosystem

Drawbacks:

Can be more difficult to learn and use than PHP

Hosting costs can be higher than for PHP

Which one will load faster, handle more requests per second, and be cheaper in terms of production costs?

In general, Node.js will load faster and handle more requests per second than PHP. This is because Node.js is a non-blocking, event-driven runtime. This means that it can handle multiple requests simultaneously without blocking on any one request. PHP, on the other hand, is a blocking language. This means that it can only handle one request at a time.

However, Node.js can be more expensive to host than PHP. This is because Node.js applications typically require more memory and CPU resources than PHP applications.

Which one should you choose for your e-commerce website?

The best choice for your e-commerce website will depend on your specific needs and requirements. If you are looking for a language that is easy to learn and use, has a large community and ecosystem, and is relatively inexpensive to host, then PHP is a good option. If you are looking for a language that is very fast and efficient, especially for real-time applications, and is easy to scale, then Node.js is a good option.

Here are some additional things to consider when choosing between PHP and Node.js for your e-commerce website:

The size and complexity of your website: If you are building a small and simple website, then either PHP or Node.js will be a good option. However, if you are building a large and complex website, then Node.js may be a better choice due to its scalability and performance.

The type of applications you need to support: If you need to support real-time applications, such as chat or live streaming, then Node.js is a better choice. PHP is not as well-suited for real-time applications.

Your budget: Node.js can be more expensive to host than PHP. If you are on a tight budget, then PHP may be a better choice.

Ultimately, the best way to decide which language to use for your e-commerce website is to consult with a web development expert. They can help you assess your specific needs and requirements and recommend the best language for your project.

Long post. Press j to skip.

I AM SICK OF THE STUPID AI DEBATES, does it imagine, is it based on copyrightable material, are my patterns in there?

That's not the point.

I briefly got into website design freelancing (less than 3 months) before burn out.

The main reason was that automation had begun for generating stylesheets in somewhat tasteful palettes, for automatically making html/xml (they really haven't learned to simplify and tidy code though, they just load 50 divs instead of one), for batch colourising design elements to match and savvy designers weren't building graphics from scratch and to spec unless it was their day job.

Custom php and database design died with the free bundled CMS packages that come with your host with massive mostly empty unused values.

No-one has talked about the previous waves of people automated out of work by website design generators, code generators, the fiverr atomisation of what would have been a designers job into 1 logo and a swatch inserted into a CMS by an unpaid intern. Reviews, tutorials, explanations and articles are generated by stealing youtube video captions, scraping fan sites and putting them on a webpage. Digitally processing images got automated with scripts stolen from fan creators who shared. Screencaps went from curated processed images made by a person to machine produced once half a second and uploaded indiscriminately. Media recaps get run into google translate and back which is why they often read as a little odd when you look up the first results.

This was people's work, some of it done out of love, some done for pay. It's all automated and any paid work is immediately copied/co-opted for 20 different half baked articles on sites with more traffic now. Another area of expertise I'd cultivated was deep dive research, poring over scans of magazines and analysing papers, fact checking. I manually checked people's code for errors or simplifications, you can get generators to do that too, even for php. I used to be an english-french translator.

The generators got renamed AI and slightly better at picture making and writing but it's the same concept.

The artists that designed the web templates are obscured, paid a flat fee by the CMS developpers, the CMS coders are obscured, paid for their code often in flat fees by a company that owns all copyright over the code and all the design elements that go with. That would have been me if I hadn't had further health issues, hiding a layer in one of the graphics or a joke in the code that may or may not make it through to the final product. Or I could be a proof reader and fact checker for articles that get barely enough traffic while they run as "multi snippets" in other publications.

The problem isn't that the machines got smarter, it's that they now encroach on a new much larger area of workers. I'd like to ask why the text to speech folks got a flat fee for their work for example: it's mass usage it should be residual based. So many coders and artists and writers got screwed into flat fee gigs instead of jobs that pay a minimum and more if it gets mass use.

The people willing to pay an artist for a rendition of their pet in the artist's style are the same willing to pay for me to rewrite a machine translation to have the same nuances as the original text. The same people who want free are going to push forward so they keep free if a little less special cats and translations. They're the same people who make clocks that last 5 years instead of the ones my great uncle made that outlived him. The same computer chips my aunt assembled in the UK for a basic wage are made with a lot more damaged tossed chips in a factory far away that you live in with suicide nets on the stairs.

There is so much more to 'AI' than the narrow snake oil you are being sold: it is the classic and ancient automation of work by replacing a human with a limited machine. Robot from serf (forced work for a small living)

It's a large scale generator just like ye olde glitter text generators except that threw a few pennies at the coders who made the generator and glitter text only matters when a human with a spark of imagination knows when to deploy it to funny effect. The issue is that artists and writers are being forced to gig already. We have already toppled into precariousness. We are already half way down the slippery slope if you can get paid a flat fee of $300 for something that could make 300k for the company. The generators are the big threat keeping folks afraid and looking at the *wrong* thing.

We need art and companies can afford to pay you for art. Gig work for artists isn't a safe stable living. The fact that they want to make machines to take that pittance isn't the point. There is money, lots of money. It's not being sent to the people who make art. It's not supporting artists to mess around and create something new. It's not a fight between you and a machine, it's a fight to have artists and artisans valued as deserving a living wage not surviving between gigs.

Suicidal Fight or Flight

🗝️🏷️ suicide, child abuse, general abuse

We’ve been in some form of therapy for about 4 years now, and it took a lot of searching to find a therapist who believed a word out of our mouth. One was particularly cagey about suicidality.

This guy, who worked in an IOP/PHP for minors, didn’t think kids could be suicidal. It took months out of our recovery for that attempt.

We had been a threat to our own safety for as long as we could remember. The alter out for it had little memory of past incidents, including the one we were there for, and it screwed up our mannerisms so much that the staff were convinced we had either lied or miraculously gotten better. They’ve split since then, but that alter’s name was Happy, and the point of their existence was to look content.

We had no meaningful communication at that point, and it buried some of our trauma holders pretty deep. We’ve made leaps and bounds since then, but it took that long to come to a ceasefire.

Our system has a lot of suicidal alters. A good portion are omega programmed, though another set came to those beliefs on their own. For them, the only escape was death. Some even have younger parts who wanted to run away, but most of them learned early on that wasn’t an option.

These alters were our fighters, some of them high up in their internal hierarchies. They remember large segments of trauma, have subsystems layered into them, and were responsible for what no one else could handle. There are divisions in ideologies even among them, but all sincerely thought that the choice to live or die was the last they had left, and still many considered it only a difference of torturous vs painful death.

Some of them were the first to start rebuilding when we realized there was an out. They picked up the dust our perps had made of us and turned it beautiful, lit fires of hope where they had none. They aren’t out as much anymore, never for their intended purposes, but we try to give them space to make the memories they couldn’t before.

It’s been slow as fuck, and the external decision that we could not die is still largely unappreciated. But we’re moving now, and their fight is coming back in waves. It never was about giving up, or even running away. They’re fighters, the lot of them, and their suicidality kept us alive.
