Hi. I'm a young professional now I guess. I studied cognitive science, now I'm a research assistant. I like Swing dancing, climbing trees, and sometimes making chainmaille. I'm a lurker, but I'm not afraid of messages.

That's not an excuse not to serve justice. Putting someone in prison for murder doesn't bring the victim back to life.

Well, it would give them the relief that justice had been served. And it would keep the perpetrator from repeating the crime on others.

No rush! Just putting it out there - you can try out your dream someday without needing to commit to a degree/full-time teaching job.

You could also volunteer at a public library, and experience working with kids and help anti-bullying programs, even without a degree!

Is there a summary I can read somewhere, because I'm a delicate flower who is easily upset by hard-to-watch things?

How bout people can privately hold an inane opinion, and not be so self-important that they think everyone else cares and need to hear it?

Yeah. I got a flu shot & still got a flu that knocked me out for a few days & left me tired/stuffy for several more. Imagine how much worse

Have your samples perhaps been biased by the fact that you're generally not around them when the people they're attached to aren't horny?

3 she didn't even get upset at all; it was just normal for her. Imagine that kid later being told to wait 10min to eat a marshmallow!

2 A 3yo girl was about to eat a lollipop when another kid ran over and grabbed it out of her hand. The researcher thought she would cry, but

A researcher I saw who did a variation of the marshmallow test was inspired by an incident at a childcare program for homeless kids: 1/?

3/3 then do the test. If they were disappointed w/ crayons, they went for the treat in ~3min; if they had gotten nice crayons, it was ~12

Basically "wait here while I get better crayons" and then either "Here they are!" or "Sorry, I couldn't find them." Let kids color a bit 2/3

Yup. Recently saw a researcher present a variation where they set up un/trustworthy environment with crayons, then did the test 1/2

If you don't have experience with sex toys and aren't expecting one (especially that big) I can understand being that startled/taken aback
