Cognitive distortions are:
- Exaggerated and irrational thoughts identified in cognitive therapy and its variants, which in theory perpetuate certain psychological disorders.
The theory of cognitive distortions was first proposed by David D. Burns.Eliminating these…
This is pretty much the cliffnotes version of a book that helped me a lot when I was depressed (book called Feeling Good).

Syrup: Four types of women.
Wow.
reblogging for character. and justice.
Hmm… same basic idea as the virgin/matron/hag archetypes you get in mythology. And after thinking about it, the hag archetype doesn’t seem to really be there in how modern people think - “old woman” is thought of as an older mother, or senile, and there’s not really the connotation of old lady magic anymore.
I’m not sure if slut and bitch are archetypes now in all senses of the word, but in terms of “what kinds of people there are”, she nailed it. (The way people tend to categorize people, I mean.)
And now I think about the male side of “what kinds of people there are”, and I don’t know. Will have to think on this.
Reading 18th century marriage law stuff (again…). “Peixotto brought an action before the Chatelet, a law court in Paris, requesting that his marriage be declared null or be dissolved by divorce.” And my brain just goes “error: $marriage is undefined.”
“Lilo and Stitch” 2002
Deleted Scene
Lilo plays a trick on the tourists.
IF YOU LIVED HERE YOU’D UNDERSTAND
I desperately need to understand
WHY
WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY
Was this scene cut from the movie??!!
Fucking christ, do you know what this would have done? What this would have meant to SO MANY people?? The truth of this is devastating. And to think it almost found it’s way into a DISNEY film??
The inclusion of this scene alone would have made it the greatest animated feature the company ever produced. Easily. And if you think that’s hyperbolic clearly you don’t understand.
No, really, if anyone knows why this was cut PLEASE let me know.
oh man WHY WOULD they cut this, this is so great, holy MOLY
It was clearly something the crew was very reluctant to get rid of if it made it all the way to rough-clean (and in a few scenes clean!), fully inbetweened animation. That is like, thousands and thousands of dollars and weeks (months?!) of labour. Maybe a reluctant producer decided they would alienate their white middle-class American audiences by making them feel “too guilty” and pressed them to drop it? It’s unfortunate, it’s one of the most honest accounts of racism in a Disney movie (which is why it’s believable that someone got uncomfortable and made a case to get it chopped)
Designing entertainment by committee for maximum marketability is probably the most heartbreaking process in Hollywood.
I’ve been seeing this around my dash and think it deserves some more recognition!
This shit is hilarious, too.
NO WAIT SHIT
I GET IT NOW
I GET WHY SHE WAS PHOTOGRAPHING TOURISTS AS A HOBBY
SHE WAS BEING FUCKING SATIRICAL AND OBJECTIFYING
IT’S NOT BECAUSE SHE’S A DUMB KID WITH A WEIRD HOBBY IT’S BECAUSE THEY DO THAT TO HER AND HER FRIENDS AND FAMILY LIKE SHE’S SOME KIND OF FUCKING THEME PARK CHARACTER AND SHE WANTS THEM TO KNOW HOW IT FEELS
HOLY FUCKING DICKS DISNEY WHY WOULD YOU CUT THIS
dang and here I thought she was just being body-positive but holy crap the objectifying thing makes so much sense
If I remember correctly, this movie came out very close after the 9/11 attacks. Another reason behind removing the scene could be that they felt that the sirens may trigger or upset people. There’s another scene later in the film they removed/fixed because Stitch highjacked a 727 airplane and flew it through a city to rescue Lilo.
There’s a good chance that I’m wrong though and they removed it because the test audiences didn’t understand it or something. But it may be something to consider.
I need to make a side blog just for this bullshittery oh my god
Maybe I’m not a Christianity expert, but isn’t PRIDE a sin? One of the deadly ones in fact.

Maybe there was a Zombie Outbreak in Revolutionary France and they used the guillotine to dispatch the threat. And…
I’m trying to figure out a way to relate this to Sans Culottes taken literally, but all I can think of is an angry, scruffy revolutionary getting pantsed, and that doesn’t have anything to do with zombies.
I’m 21 now. It’s finals week, so instead of drinking, I got stressed and a little sleep deprived and acted like an emotional drunk anyway. Feeling better now, though. (Thank you friend for talking with me and singing Schnitzelbunk with me :3) My last project is due tomorrow, so after that I can sleep all I want.
I’m quite lucky. In March I took the time to take a genuine break from my real life, and escape to San Francisco to celebrate my thirtieth orbit around the sun. It was my first time outside of Europe, as well as my first time on American soil.
