How do you spell encephalopathy? Is it with a k? No? Then say it correctly. (Interestingly, the c in correctly is pronounced like a k, isn't it? Lol)

This was not a good reaction. I DO expect a psychologist to discuss the mental health aspects of this, but there's an overload here. Lot's of obvious stuff here being explained like he's talking to kids. Also, isnt this supposed to be humourous. The numerous funny scenes barely got a smile out of the doctor here. This was some humourless rambling nonsense.

Id love to see you analyze the episode where Butters is abused by his grandmother. My grandmother was also abusive and how he learns to cope with it and tells her off is always a scene that makes me feel things and I'd love your take on how the people around him write it off as shes his grandmother and old women can't be abusive and how that impacts his attempts to seek help and to cope with it.

8:38 "You guys have heard of Freudian slips, right, you know, where you say one thing, but mean your mother" Holy shit that was funny. Chef's kiss.

I've had the sunk cause fallacy in me for Pokemon Go for so long. Also Words With Friends drains me of my money. The video hasn't yet mentioned the sunk cause fallacy yet. But I'm assuming it will. So much money I've tanked because I want a respectable pokedex (as if there's anybody out there who gives a shit) but I just feel this itch to scratch to keep going on. I'm really fucking myself and can't seem to stop. Ffs I'm buying incubators for eggs that show the possible hatchings that I know I don't need because my nostalgia for pokemon is so potent, as a millennial. I'm this close to deleting it. But i can't seem to pull the trigger

Well you preached a lot in this episode.

hi, i just came here to ask: could you maybe react to the show “brilliant minds”, please?? it’s focused on neurological disorders, but there is also a psychiatrist. maybe episode 5 would be interesting

I had a bit of playtime experimentation with other female friends when i was around 8. Which yes could have been from tramatix experiences but still. I rememvered it through high school. Through my "first kiss" with a boy at 16. Hadnt realized i wasnt straight until like 23

I’m just going to say this, and I may not be popular for it, but I have to be honest. It’s marge’s fault for spending all the money for immediately getting that tattoo removed, if she just accepted it until after the holidays and then once they had money again got rid of it fine, but no she just had to do it immediately🙄 Stupid decision Marge!

On that performance by Lisa in the school stage show, am I to assume it’s because of the way she’s dressed that you have a problem with? I’m fairly certain that’s what it is, but just thought I’d ask.

"Is that dad?" "Either that, or Batman REALLY let himself go."

sometimes the youtube algorithm does you a favour; I watched a "best of Mr. Burns" compilation this morning and now I'm here!

Do not question the Hypnotoad..........ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD!!!!!!!!

3 year old video but i will say the mom has such a valid point even tho she is mentally ill herself, being in a mental hospital can sometimes be terrifying and make you feel more insane because you are surrounded by others who are just as if not way more mentally ill then you. i wish they found a way to make the adult wards less intense. if i had a mental break i probably would refuse to go to the mental hospital because it wont be like the kids ward how i remember, i will be with people that have genuinely done crazy shit and as someone who feeds off other people it would definitely make my symptoms just worse.

Would love to hear your thoughts on the new season!

Late comment here, but for another look at 90’s depictions of gay characters, how about doing a video about the episode “The Matchmaker” from Frasier (season 2 episode 3)?

5:25 I noticed one of the “Fake Currencies” is a Donut with Sprinkles…As someone who used to play “The Simpsons Tapped Out” on my phone a lot, I was not surprised to see it on there.

My ex was on SSRIs for 30 years and if she missed a pill she was miserable and made sure that everyone around her was miserable too. Avoid drugs if at all possible.

The brain is the hardware, the mind is the software.

9:45 "Underachiever and Proud of it" was a phrase on bart simpson merchandise contemporary to this episode's launch.

Yes. In ICU, where JD and Cox work, you will kill a patient. Not because of a mistake, or an omission but because people are not machines and adenosine might not reboot the heart but just block it or digital lake go from AFib tach to brad. Etc... Etc...

I am with you I am unsure at best if these psychedelic therapies have any long-lasting power. But it might be that we are missing a key process. In history, these drugs classically were used in religious ceremonies and for a purpose. So the person receiving the drugs knew they were doing something they might ever do again, for a specific reason. I can only imagine this activates an adventure response from people where they're prepared for bad things to happen, but are willing to face those things to get to the end. It also preps the person to try and find something. Plus, the one thing I do think religion does very well is normalize things that would under normal circumstances be insane, and make that insane thing important. They do this through ritual and tradition. For example, if someone just off the street offered you the blood and flesh of a man you would be rightly horrified. But that is not the reaction for Catholics in a church at the end of service. Even though Catholics believe whole heartedly that they are devouring the blood and flesh of their savior. I think there is that certainty and faith that what they are doing could really be important missing as well. When we are talking about a chemical treatment that fundamentally changes how the person perceives reality, I think mindset before it happens matters. Wihtout that mental architecture in place, I don't know if the drugs will do anything long-lasting that isn't negative.

The fact that there are no way to survive the jump, and Secretariat thinking what can he say to slow the drop is terrifying

The treatments have changed greatly in the past 60 years.

10:52 fun fact, the Trinidad scorpion is a former world record holder for spiciest pepper and clocks in at just over 1 million scovils

I still haven't forgiven Andy Samberg for the Samberg The Sand Eating Reindeer. It is the most painfully unfunny thing I have ever seen

I'm ready for this, bring it on Doctor Elliott! Goals - Actually get my website off the ground and running properly (I'm getting there, but there's some problems I need to figure out.) - Go through each room in my house and get rid of as much as reasonable (downsizing and prepping to list our house) - Choosing details for home repairs and improvements (before listing house) - Work on my other channels (varius needs for each, which I have neglected). Outside these goals I need to see if you have more info on this short and long term memory. My TBI makes my short term memory more problematic, so any feasible accomodations and habits that help are so important for me.

You skipped the end of scene in garage when things fall off the shelves. Those things are *time* - that is what hyperfocus on one distraction/task does to time.

The five stages of grief us a FANTASTIC tool... For fiction writing and little else.

I feel like people tend to underestimate smells. The thing I look forward most when coming home is my home smell. And I actively take care to modify my home smell to make it as pleasent as possible to me. That smell is almost as relaxing as taking a leak. Which is my primary way of releasing stress while at work. Always makes me feel like I'm carrying one harpsicord less.

You should react to Simon Amstell's stand up specials. Although.. there may be too much to say lol

Do you read any William James?

You skip the part where Marge was smoking in order to cover up the aroma of the chili. She doesn't normally smoke.

0:52 when i took lithium my mouth & my skin were way drier than normal. it’s often suggested to drink more water on it. i’m sure that’s related i don’t know exactly how

5:10 Doctor Elliot: Believe it or not, i'm not aware of any specific examples of super hot chilli being grown by patients in ANY Insane Asylums at any point of history Me: So... you have never heard of "Da Bomb Beyond Insanity" (shoutout to Hot Ones)

9:45 that shows from a mile away

7:28 sorry doc, acid is nothing like this 😅 more akin to dmt or mescaline

OMG!!!!! Is that true with ADHD and the cleaning of rugs + bottles??!! I watch those all the time!!!
