Sapolsky"s 30th., episode is out, Thursdays, apparently.
.
Someone asked him a very proprietary question, "Is there good stress," and he's telling us about short term stress being good and long term stress being bad, and this is my obsession with spanking, that it isn't one and done, over, it lasts for years and years.

Right? ❤️
not sure exactly how yet, but his speech and his little chart about this has to say something about spoon theory, something for us in that chart. ❤️

Really, does spanking ever end?
Don't we just eventually trade our parents in for the police?

we like your theorycrafting on human development in our cultures.
have you considered working the consent issues of tickling into your framework as well?

OK who the Hell are you or who sent you 😈
my childhood tormentors’ favourite bloody weapon. I still say I can’t be responsible for what happens if you tickle me.

No, I have not, that’s a thing I try not to think about. Eish. ❤️

we theorize that tickling is the first common consent violation children go through.
We feel that this is what makes accepting own boundaries so hard for many and what explains the urge to laugh instead of cry for many painful things.
that this turns into playful ribbing that defines one of the only few socially accepted ways of forming masculine friendships.
or the whole ignoring internal boundaries while caring for external boundaries men are expected to do and the caring for internal boundaries while ignoring external boundaries women are expected to do.
