I'd post screenshots, but then you'd just get more victims
Vrek has sent photos of his flaccid(?) penis along with a message which reads "Send me a pic of that tranny butthole," and has now also sent close up shots of what appears to be him erotically chewing on a Nazi flag.
Your concern about this isn't entirely misplaced IMO. I'm not a scientist/researcher, but I am a psychotherapist with a background in behavioural psychology and neuroscience, and it seems to me that these findings don't map onto clinical avolition (which is a persistent, punishment‑independent symptom) as the researchers suggest.
Using positive punishment as an externalized analogue for an inherently internal aversion seems like an overgeneralization. Additionally, they seem to ignore important distinctions between avolition and anhedonia, showcasing a lack of understanding of the clinical context in which they hope their research will apply. (Granted, they do distinguish between initiation and valuation, but then appear to ignore this distinction in concluding its relevance to MDD (when it's really only relevant to atypical depression)).
This isn't to say that the VS-VP pathway isn't a potential target for treating motivational deficits, but it seems unlikely that it would be for the reasons stated. It sounds far more applicable to demand aversion in conditions like ADHD rather than depression.
I'm doing a bit lol. I'm pretty sure qrstuv created the news community just to fuck with people and get posted about in this community. Their ability to play the long game and their self control to not engage in these threads is really impressive to me
Edit: I sent myself that message and photoshopped qrstuv on there, just tbc
The users of that community are known to have weird opinions that force the mod to take seemingly heavy handed action to prevent it. The no abbreviations thing is something that's come up before, and yet these trolls continue to break the rules relentlessly and then come here to complain about it just to stir up drama. As you can see in this very thread, there's a witch hunt brewing against qrstuv
Stop DMing me. This is harassment.
