Ich bekämpfe meine #Aversion gegen #Excel und importiere CSV Dateien per #PowerShell in eine Datenbank.

I have #republican friends who call me respectfully their favorite #libtard. But, for the life of me I can't understand their #aversion to #vaccines, though #educated, their love of #guns though hatred of #war and loss, their championing of #freedoms as long as it does not impact their freedoms; ie, #masks, their despise of #taxes but it is ok to tax others just not them, their desire to live in the #past w prevalent #disease & short #life spans. I find them #confusing and #illogical?

Today in Labor History December 15, 1973: The American Psychiatric Association voted to remove homosexuality from its official list of psychiatric disorders, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. In the 1950s and 1960s, some therapists used aversion therapy to "cure" male homosexuality. Like in Anthony Burgess’s, “A Clockwork Orange,” they would show patients pictures of naked men while giving them electric shocks or drugs to make them puke. In the 1973 vote, 5,854 members voted to remove homosexuality from the DSM, while 3,810 voted to retain it. In a compromise, they agreed to remove homosexuality from the DSM, but replaced it with "sexual orientation disturbance" for people "in conflict with" their sexual orientation. They did not completely remove homosexuality from the DSM until 1987.

I’m one of those who fights battles with #clutter and #piles at home. No, it’s not #hoarding. It’s more about the #mental hills we climb to establish and maintain #momentum on a task. I reach a point of #overload and then I #shutdown. In some ways, if I could stop myself hitting mental #barriers then the take themselves are easy. Then #shame can build, and there’s my natural #aversion of people. Maybe I just need to hire a #housekeeper. #actuallyautistic @actuallyautistic

Buddhism talks a great deal about attachment but a little less about aversion. Both are connected.

We humans spend so much effort avoiding things that really matter, that it makes us and those around us sick. Peel away the mask and the role and see the aspect in play and see what you're avoiding. Because aversion shortens your life and makes you miserable.

I am currently avoiding working on a novel!
And what a joy it is! Novels hurt!

I have an #aversion
To the ground, it seems
I can't get away from it
Fast enough

Take me to the sea
And let me drift

Or let me weave
Between the clouds

Let me crawl down a cave
And hibernate

Or climb a tree
And find sanctuary

I could quite happily
Never touch the ground again

Why should I?

#MastoPrompt #SmallPoems #Poetry #Aversion

I prefer a cheerful attitude
Filled with joy and gratitude.
Though you might think
That I state a silly platitude.

Of this I am positive,
I have an #aversion
To a negative version
Of myself.

Today's #MastoPrompt for #SmallPoems #Poetry is...

#aversion

The poem can include the prompt word or be about the prompt word.

"How can you doubt, now , here with the #ignorance & #aversion of ALL Politrickters on FULL display, How can you doubt that ALL worldly sources of refuge will fail you? The myriad #delusions of those things-created-to-distract will fail to bring you true happiness. You will get at most a few brief moment of sensual gratification. Like drops of water on a Hot Stone they will vanish all in a puff of steam." -Words to myself
