When did the word introvert transform from "people who just like having lots of time to themselves" to "people who are shit at social interaction"

if social interaction tires you out you're doing it wrong and mismanaging your feelings.

what if you're introverted because you're fucking baked tho? 8)

but most importantly, what if you're introverted because you're permanently baked i.e. psychosis? 8)8)

idk I get pretty tired of social interaction after my hypo-manic periods runs its course...

sometimes i'm introverted and extroverted, it depends on how I feel, and how I feel about the social situation.

sometimes the social situation is out of your control, thus it's difficult to manage it, only to dissociate/retreat into your inner world.

i think people can be extroverted given the right opportunities despite their introversion

sometimes introversion is a conscious choice that I prefer because of the illusive and mystical fantasies within my psychosis

external day-to-day reality with engaging with other people isn't always that cracked up to be

we need recluse hermits to write novels, poetry, stories, philosophy, manifestos and draw shit and make fashion that fuck with our world too you know

from a philosophical perspective, in a perfectly just world everyone has absolute free will I guess. for me, I know sometimes for me the paradox of choice can lead me to into more introversion by over-analyzing the infinite possibilities forestalling my ability to ever reach a conclusive and definitive choice. Though that's the crux of modern man's issue in civilization of balancing our primitive urges vs external circumstances and pressures - "situations out of our control". however, it's also relative to individual perception and a simple change of insight can transcend the perspective that it's "out of control" and such actualizes into something that is actually tangibly in our reach. sometimes it's not necessarily always a clear-cut conscious choice, but obviously choices that are made the person is to be accountable. if one can achieve choosing how to respond to situations out of their control in the most harmonious manner they have a better self-experience of having such grasp of their life.

also despite being accountable for one's own actions, from a cognitive psychology/neuroscience perspective, some mentally ill or developmentally delayed people may not necessarily posses the self-reflective capacities to process reality in a productive manner along with their decision making abilities to make a conscious choice, whilst implying the one they make is rational. some people are born predisposed with innate aggression and may bias their decision-making ie. psychopathy that can lead to consequences such as criminality

i'm working on achieving harmony myself with the world at large alongside my condition for what it's worth - hindsight is 20/20 too, just because one has made a decision that is regrettable or cost-benefit-wise unproductive/inefficent and the seemingly unvaoidable emotionally devestation of such sequence doesn't mean later on in life that they rediscovered that it apparently isn't so anymore

today, instead of doing work, I read Joan Didion's , which made me think of David Foster Wallace's essay , and which I also procrastinatoraly (re)read.

They're both long articles that cover the campaign trail of presidential hopefuls. Joan follows the '88 presidential election and David tracks McCain's 2000 presidential campaign. Both stress their outsider status, neither are 'professional' political writers, and the way that this gives them special insight into the vulgarities of the campaign trail, which they are equally great at chronicling.

Reading both pieces is a great way to see how different writers approach similar material. 'Dividing' by the the common denominator (the campaign trail) allows you to see/ think about the writer's approach, selection and construction etc. of events into an organised, coherent piece of writing, and the pros/cons of each approach. Interestingly, this kind of writerly comparison is something that both Joan and David do to the other (political) writers around them. They show how the campaigns' constructed set-pieces of political play acting, designed for and aimed at the other political journalists and media professionals, are then filtered by this same group, so that when these events appear in the paper or on the news, they seems almost like reality.

Both pieces are superb, both are well worth reading, if not for the incredible incredible talent of these two writers (wow! really? [i know]), then for a look at the absurdities of political journalism and the general bizarreness of western democratic elections.

This speaks a lot better than I can in regards to my feelings on the popularity of Black Twitter. You, dear reader, are free to disagree (as always) but I'd rather not instigate a debate about it. Just read it, think about it. If you want to discuss, feel free to PM me but let's not subject a lovely board to a fruitless argument. Toodles

another interesting one: the secret life of passwords

http://www.nytimes.com/2014/11/19/magaz ... words.html

the writing is a little overly romantic but very interesting concept

i remember finding out my best friend's password was "puppylove" and making fun of her for it. she indignantly changed it and i said, "haha, what is it now, 'puppylove89'?" and her eyes got big as dinner plates and she yelled "HOW DID YOU DO THAT"

Suppose this is the best place to put this, haven't really found another thread that this request truly responds well too, if it doesn't I apologize for my misplacement

I'm tasked to write a piece on the topic "Elitism/Classism in the fashion industry." The idea is to highlight the problems runway fashion (I want to focus on this instead of general department stores) have with the inflated standard fashion holds itself at. I understand the extent classism holds and the different definitions and sub-definitions it can be given, and using that fact I decided to focus on racial classism and subjugation. For elitism: weight-based elitism that holds back women larger than the standard of the industry. With that in mind, I was wondering if anyone has specifically looked in on this, and what's some of the best stuff you've found? I don't want to come across as asking people to do my work for me, and I'm sorry if I do, but I am curious to see the golden articles and criticism that you've put into a little folder, or always had in the back of your mind.

Thank you to anyone who responds, and again, I apologize if this is misplaced or comes across as lazy from me, I just know that some of you have probably got some great stuff!

I don't know if would be useful to you. I have only read one chapter that was relevant to me, but it seems like some of those might be useful. I'm also not sure if you would find interesting/useful. I have read this, and this is more about the rise of fast fashion and the social/law implications it has on designers. It also discusses piracy and if it is necessary for fashion. It's a good read regardless. There was brief talk about class, if I remember correctly. Hope these help a little bit or give you more ideas!
