The abused child becomes the adult who not only expects mistreatment but may act in ways to elicit or recreate it, not out of masochism but in a tragic attempt to master, understand, or confirm the internalized relational template.

A CRT Monitor is like a Winnicottian transitional object for the postmodern mind: not just a screen, but a portal. A soft hum, the curvature of time, the visible flicker of a world not yet flattened.

Thinking of starting a club for twee vegetarian progressive gardeners with a soft spot for #GroupB rally, V10 #Formula1, and the golden age of tobacco-sponsored motorsport. Bring your compost and your #Marlboro #McLaren nostalgia. Let’s go!

“We need a moral philosophy in which the concept of love can once again be made central Love is the extremely difficult realisation that something other than oneself is real” Happy birthday, Iris Murdoch.

If a policy serves consumerism, selling more new cars, eroding local circular economies of repair, constant growth, the generation of waste, perpetual debt cycles, then it isn't one that serves interests of ecology, sustainability, the environment, or class concerns. #ulez #lez

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Louder for the academic psychologists in the back. “There is a strong evidence-base for a psychodynamic approach, supporting primary theoretical tenets as well as the treatment effectiveness.“ onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

Philip Bromberg writes (1998) of something @JonathanShedler often says: "it is humanly impossible to become fully alive in the present without facing and owning all of the hated, disavowed parts of the self that have shaped and been shaped by one's earliest object attachments."

"A psychological structure or function that is created to meet the demands of one environment—the world of childhood—can outlive its usefulness and become maladaptive in another—the life of the adult." —John Munder Ross, The Sadomasochism of Everyday Life

Amazing how often I use the term "personality 𝘴𝘵𝘺𝘭𝘦𝘴" & the person I'm talking to immediately changes it to "personality 𝘥𝘪𝘴𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴" as if that's what I said without even noticing we're not talking about the same thing It's that automatic DSM has done real harm

I love this saying from Winnicott (not verbatim): The difference between good parents and bad parents was not the number of mistakes they made, but what they did with them.

“It’s not happened in Kim Jong Un’s North Korea. It’s happened in Kent upon the order of a Conservative minister.” @mrjamesob delivers a sobering monologue in response to Robert Jenrick ordering the cover-up of a cartoon mural that he deemed ‘too welcoming.’
