Fun, not well known, fact
Here's an interesting phenomena: the "Barnum effect", named after P.T. Barnum of circus fame. It refers to the tendency of people to accept vague and general personality descriptions as uniquely applicable to themselves. This effect is often exploited by horoscopes and personality tests, showing how people tend to interpret general statements as highly personal and accurate.

Men do you think women are easy to figure out or complicated?
Men say they’re pretty simple, maybe to other men but not as much to women. So I wonder if men see women as easy to figure out or complicated?

Have you noticed on reddit that one comment gets highly upvoted although it doesn’t contain something really interesting, and another gets massively downvoted although it’s not that someone says something awful?
I think that in these cases people follow the crowd and “bull y” that one who are already “bull ied” because normally it’s easier to go against a person /opinion/ group of people that is already h a t ed , so the “popular” comment get more popular because people see that they are already hyped up... read more

I'm unable to find profiles which I truly like
I been swiping and searching on several dating apps for a while now and I simply cannot find any good profiles anymore that would truly attract me, impress me, make me feel curious. For me the lack of good descriptive bio is the biggest turn off and I tend to swipe left a lot. I rarely give likes.... read more

Meeting with the Shadow
« Unfortunately there can be no doubt that man is, on the whole, less good than he imagines himself or wants to be. Everyone carries a shadow, and the less it is embodied in the individual's conscious life, the blacker and denser it is. » C.G Jung

Poll Time: talking about finance, how do you handle money in your day-to-day life?
#life #vida #money #finance #psychology #psicologia #question01
I'm a financially conscious person. I don't carelessly overspend, and do have a budget 📊
I spend the money without caring about budgeting. I'll worry later about the bills💸
I don't buy anything, so, I don't have to worry about money 🤷🏻
You guys earn money/have enough money to spend? I don't even have money to be buried on a coffin💀⚰️

What is a rational thought that sometimes slips into your head
My example is what is it that we as humans want, and need from others and on what grounds do we get said needs met, or sometimes it's how we interact with each other based on experience and state or even country how one bad experience is like a drop of blood in our bucket of water spreading out and... read more

Lose Yourself
Kensett visited Lake George in the Adirondacks on numerous occasions and made many studies of the area (see also 74.7, 74.11, 74.20). This painting is Kensett's largest and most accomplished treatment of the subject, as well as a fine example of his mature style. He has taken considerable liberties... (edited) read more

So, growing up in a place that filled with a lot of fights and unhealthy way to express disagreement, I tend to be someone that people call "people pleaser" just to avoid conflict and bring peace.

“I’m Giving Up On Dating” I’ve been seeing a lot of this lately...
Posting on B00 about giving up on dating is not an effective strategy to get the type of engagement you're seeking. Such posts often come across as attempts to elicit sympathy, hoping to attract romantic attention. Unfortunately, this approach can make you seem desperate, which is not appealing. If... read more

"Can Men and Women Truly Ever Be Just Friends?"
I often wonder if men and women can really be just friends. I’d like to believe it’s possible, and I do have a couple of guy friends who seem to fit that mold. But honestly, they feel more like the exception than the rule. It’s frustrating because sometimes it’d be great to have a male friend who... read more
