"Shame is the ‘I’ve done something wrong emotion’. Or at least it should be. As with all emotions, shame can be v useful. However, it’s a difficult emotion to feel, so people might just turn away from it and refuse to learn from it." www.bishuk.com/about-you/ho...

Seriously academics get genuinely excited about this, it is often the best email they will get all month. I once had a professor send me not just the paper I requested but six more that he'd written that related to the topic he was so happy someone outside academia wanted to read his work

Every academic article has a corresponding author whose email address is listed on the first page. If an article is paywalled, just send a short, polite email requesting a PDF from the author. 95% of the time you’ll receive it within a day. People like knowing their work is being read!

"lending someone a fiver requires a different kind of trust than sending someone a nude. As even philosophers can’t agree on what trust means, it’s probably the case that trust is something we have to work out for ourselves." here's how www.bishuk.com/relationship...

Best for Britain are the same outfit whose head in 2019 (a member of the Lib Dems incidentally) I managed to get to admit to me that they were making shit up for tactical voting based on their political preference. Disregard this shite.

Reminder that the Best for Britain tactical voting website is dogshit for centrist losers.

What makes trust in relationships harder are a lot of the 'common sense' stories we are told about who we should trust, with what, and in what circumstances. This means it can be harder to develop our ‘spidey sense’ of when to trust someone. More here www.bishuk.com/relationship...

While I'm making the TL uncomfortable. I'd like to remind you that there's an episode of Secret Diary of a Callgirl where Billie Piper shags a barrister who can't come until she a dons QC wig and robe and tells him off in court-speak. It's set in 00s London and the actor they chose looks like this.

'I guess you can say I've got quite a large helmet... you get it? You know, like I have a helmet but also the head of my penis. Jenny, did you get it? Did it arouse you?"

Who's up for chatting with me about; your best hopes, what it will look like when they happen, and how far you've come already? Low / no fee slots available next week. justinhancock.co.uk#coaching

This is genuinely good advice (in my expert opinion). A photo of Grace Jones as a 'technology of the self' or a 'more than human' line of flight to become-other. I might cite this in a future podcast.

If you’re ever unsure of if you’re doing something stupid romantically, take a large photo of Grace Jones and tell her what you’re doing. Explain to Ms Jones that you’re sad because you’re being ghosted by a mid ugly bartender who doesn’t own a bed frame. Go ahead. Tell her. See how that feels.

This is excellent and free to read. I love the Derrida but also that 'third person effect' is crucial to understand.

So basically the presidential election comes down to one question: Will being a criminal alienate more potential Republican voters than supporting war crimes will alienate potential Democrat voters? A dying empire led by bad people, indeed.
