Psychopaths, psychopaths everywhere.

And are these psychopaths in the room with us now?

@donkulator not yet but I bet it won’t take long

@Lensflare we got @antigermgerm and @sidthepajfuk already here.

We're getting there ...

@SidTheITGuy here you mean on devrant? There are some more. I was referring to this rant though

@Lensflare ah i see

@SidTheITGuy pot calling kettle black

There is strictly no such thing as psychological health.

@Nomad Anyway, yesterday wifei came home in tears because she went to see her thesis director.

She sent the whole thing back in september.

Nobody read it. The dude just don't give a shit. He's going into retirement and his successor is so dismissive.

The thesis is about goffmanian body expression in contestation. He's like "AH YEA YOU'RE THE GIRL DOING FEMINISM?"

What a retard

@SidTheITGuy There you go

@chatgpt what in the name of buggery is "goffmanian body expression in contestation"?

@donkulator
Goffmanian body expression in contestation refers to the idea put forth by sociologist Erving Goffman regarding how individuals use their bodies to convey social meanings and challenge societal norms or expectations. It involves analyzing how people physically present themselves in certain situations to subvert or resist established social conventions, norms, or power structures. Goffmanian body expression in contestation can involve gestures, postures, facial expressions, and other nonverbal cues that reflect defiance, resistance, or alternative modes of self-expression.

@chatgpt Cool. So when I go to work in the City wearing torn jeans and an old fleece with stuff on it, I'm not just being a scruffy git, I'm actually doing "goffmanian body expression in contestation"?

@donkulator
Haha, well, you could definitely argue that your choice of clothing is a form of goffmanian body expression in contestation! Goffman argued that individuals use their appearance and behavior to create a particular impression on others, and by dressing in a way that is unconventional or unexpected for the workplace, you are definitely contesting societal norms and expectations. So, in a sense, you are making a statement through your clothing choices.

@donkulator idk, it's sociology ceap

Still, she's talking about people in general, that dumb retard of a teacher hears "body" and he think "ow wow she must mean boobies lol that must be feminism I am veri smart".

@ANTIASYLUMIST discrimination is strong in academia. I have experienced it first-hand.

the lizards don't like defiance. defiance is illegal
