so much love to give if you will just accept it into your heart…..
Yeah, regarding that suicide hotline post I reblogged: I genuinely worry, with the number of mentally ill people on this site trying to live with and/or ease their mental illness, that some of these people are going to get tricked by Scientologist anti-psychiatry propaganda. I mean, that’s how cults lure people in; they pick people who feel there’s something missing or wrong with their lives and take advantage of them by claiming to have the solution to all their problems.
I’ve joked in the past about “What if the Church of Scientology got a Tumblr?” but there’s a part of me that’s worried that there are Scientologists on Tumblr trying to spread dangerous misinformation about mental health.
I hope that part of me is wrong.
UPDATE: So, uh, turns out a branch of $cientology technically HAS made Tumblr blogs. Several of them. If you see any blogs promoting a drug rehab facility called “Narconon”, please be aware that they ARE associated with the Church of $cientology, and they have a rather troubling history: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narconon
A quick note though: there is a difference between “Narconon” and “Nar-anon,” the latter being a 12-step group for those affected by the addiction of someone close to them and is NOT associated with scientology. I don’t doubt that the scientologists made theirs sound similar on purpose.
There’s also “Narcotics Anonymous” for people who are themselves suffering with addiction, which is also not associated with scientology.
I don’t want anyone to avoid getting help bc they mistakenly think a program is part of a cult!!
Previous home details: Darwin
was born in Canada as part of the exotic pet trade in 2012, and had
lived in a family home in Toronto. He was found in an IKEA parking lot
in December 2012 after escaping from his owner’s car and was seized by
local authorities. A social media and worldwide news sensation, Darwin
has resided at SBFPS ever since.
Condition upon arrival: Darwin
had been imprinted by humans, which rarely bodes well for a monkey. He
was very insecure upon arrival, and needed to be the centre of
everyone’s attention. He was sheltered from the other monkeys until he
got used to his surroundings.
Progress: Since
his arrival Darwin has grown in strides – learning to be far more
monkey than human. He is grooming Sweet Pea, and calls to Julien and
Lexy – mimicking their vocalizations and learning how to speak macaque.
He has grown in size and confidence as well, and was slowly transitioned
towards having multiple caregivers who he can trust and love as his
‘troop’, as he had no real monkey mother to show him the ropes.
Personality Traits: Darwin
is a cheeky little guy, that’s for sure! He loves to play all day, and
is always bouncing off the walls with excitement, especially when his
favourite people come to visit! He loves to play tricks on you when
you’re not looking, like any adolescent!
Favourite Activity: Darwin
loves Curious George! He has a Curious George doll whom he takes to his
pool to give a bath, and grooms him and tries to get him to drink. He
also loves swinging on his fire hose.
Favourite Food: Darwin loves grapes, dates and cherries – but cherries definitely top the list!
Wish list from staff: Darwin can always use new and exciting toys, and he loves his fire hose swings and swimming in kiddie pools!
When you have your students make paper headdresses, wear fringe shirts, and give themselves Native names – you are NOT teaching them about Natives. you are teaching them about the stereotypes we’ve been reduced to.
