The woman, based on whom the term was coined (the psychiatrist never even talked to her) wrote an autobiography “I became Stockholm Syndrome”.

There’s also the works of Allan Wade, a Canadian psychologist, who has talked to the victims throughout his career.

Basically when you’re at the whims of an armed lunatic, you might cozy up to them in order to appease them. The victims were also really afraid of the police coming in and shooting them. Which is pretty justified, considering the police couldn’t even identify the perpetrator before conceding on his demands and bringing in his prison buddy.

That’s not to say he should still be in office, but mocking his neurological condition after having survived one of the worst nerve-infecting diseases is in extremely poor taste.

My friend told me of the horror of your menstrual cup falling into a public toilet. I’d take licking the bowl over that shit any day of the week.

Mitochondria is plural. Mitochondrion is singular. They’re still wrong though.

Honestly? You should.

I know, right? Why would you willingly keep a child? Just put it away or put it down.

Wolfram Alpha is crying in binary for being abused like this.
