That's the point, friend.

It kind of is national security shit, if the people whose mentions were redacted have any bearing on national security. Keeping them redacted means they are vulnerable to extortion.
Sorry, it was a joke to show off a goofy-looking snake. I'm pretty sure their eyes are actually positioned like that because they are fossorial, I don't think snakes rely on their eyesight much at all.
But the Arabian sand boa is well known to be the most predatory of snakes:

ETA: This is a joke. I don't think there is a "most predatory snake" (though I guess you could argue that egg-eaters are least predatory?). I just like their goofy faces.
Look at the size of her face overall on the left, and the size on the right. Now look at where her eyebrows are on the left and where they are on the right. The camera on the left is slightly closer, her makeup is different, and her eyes are open wider. I don't think it's a filter.
Both sides are allowed to suck, here. I get what you're saying- everyone seems to have made decisions without allowing the child, who would be incapable of making such life altering decisions, to have any kind of agency. Being concerned for his welfare is empathetic.
The other posters are concerned that the CCP has a terrible human rights record, and are notorious for being untruthful. Out of the frying pan, into the fire.
I mean, did you source your parents? I expect in-text citations and inclusion of your birth certificate within the bibliography.
I appreciate the thoughtful context. Having experienced things that were later reported on in the news, though, sometimes it feels like the writers just latch on to odd details or have a word count to hit.
I know people are doubting this happened but I'm pretty sure it's a symptom of paranoid schizophrenia to think that one's electronics are trying to speak to you.
I think this is also a reflection on self awareness.
Fair enough. I'm sorry those weren't helpful for you, I also found CBT to be less helpful than DBT and family model therapy.
I know a lot of trauma-exposed professionals that EMDR has been life-changing for, so I was really curious where that opinion came from. I think it has a lot of merit- like that one study that demonstrated the Tetris effect is helpful for reducing PTSD after a critical incident. A good professional won't move to EMDR until the client is ready to tackle the memories, I know for some it's been 6 months before talking about the original issue that caused them to seek out therapy. Every time you recount the traumatizing event it can retraumatize, so tackling it too soon (or needing to go through it over and over so workers comp can pay for the therapy you need after getting traumatized at work) is dangerous.
