        That famous thing where your therapist is allowed to just casually inform you of what they’ve been talking about with all their other patients.

          It’s pretty normal to do so long as you don’t give identifying information. That said, it might break confidentiality to say “all” rather than “most” or “many”, because then it reveals something someone said if you know they are that therapist’s client.

    Still, per Axios, some aides would prefer it if the president showed his anger to the public more often to show the 80-year-old’s still fiery and not too old to serve.

    That last paragraph made it clear that his campaign leaked the story intentionally. Sad.

        Yeah. My understanding is that at least part if it is due to being aware that you’re losing faculties and are finding things that used to be easy difficult or impossible, and the frustration and horror of that breaks people’s calm pretty horribly. And then on top of that damage to the brain often leads to aggressive behavior with no other obvious cause. It’s really awful. : (

          It’s also a common thing, especially among men, to react to disorientation with anger and seek to externalize blame, so if dementia causes them to be disoriented more easily, they’ll be aggressive more often. It’ll usually be even worse if someone corrects them because of that confusion and it hurts their pride.

    Lol.

    “President Brandon is being sent to a nice farm upstate with Major and Commander after several incidents where he bit secret service members and shit on the rug”.

    Place your bets

    • Dementia is setting in and Brandon is expressing abrupt mood shifts, irritability, and rage, which are common symptoms

    • Brandon is a dipshit unsuited for the role he has found himself in and is expressing his frustration by abusing his minions

    • Brandon is exactly who he has always been; A cruel, racist monster who has caused enormous suffering out of a callous indifference towards humanity

Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.

  6. Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.

  7. American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.

  8. Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.

  9. AI Slop: Don’t post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.
