And this kid, he was new, he got wise. His name is Frank, and he is a psychopath. In the public imagination, a “psychopath” is a violent serial killer or an over-the-top movie villain, as one sometimes might suspect Frank to be. “[M]y mother, the most beautiful person in the world. The word psychopathy dates back in an early form to the 19th century, but as a modern term it’s primarily used in reference to the work of Canadian psychologist Robert Hare. The psychopath’s world is a strikingly skewed one in which the normal laws of human emotion and interaction do not apply—yet it serves as reality for a sizable portion of humanity.

Everybody loves a good prank… unless you are the one on the receiving end of the fun. It’s time to hone your pranking skills, not just to make sure you are the best, but so you can avoid being pranked by others. Yeah, sure, we could go with the old standards, like a blue screen of death screensaver or something like that, but it’s time to use our geek skills and come up with something better. We’ll cover some of the old favorites too, but maybe with a twist. Disclaimer: Get a sense of humor. Make the Space Key Write the Word SPACE Here’s a clever prank for you: Make the victim’s computer actually type the word “SPACE” every time they hit the space bar.

That’s it.
Spiritless Humans - Matrix
(This article replaces Matrix Agents: Profiles and Analysis) Empty people. Puppet people. Cardboard cutouts. Drones. Organic Portals. Over the years I have received emails from readers who came to this same conclusion. Background The idea of empty people first dawned on me in 1999 after having done much research into sociopaths and psychopaths, their condition being medically known as APD or “Antisocial Personality Disorder.” Eventually I realized that this same root condition was present in some others who were not outwardly sociopathic, but whose lack of heart was masked by a well-adapted social exterior. But what exactly is missing in them? Behavioral and Psychic Characteristics Their behavior tends toward being glib, shallow, egotistical, narcissistic, mundane, predatory, and materialistic.

The Greatest Epidemic Sickness Known to Humanity
The following is Part One in a series. Read Part Two here. In the book Columbus and other Cannibals, indigenous author Jack D. Forbes lucidly explores a psychological disease that has been informing human self-destructive behavior that Native American people have known about for years. After reading his book, it was clear to me that he was describing the same psycho-spiritual disease of the soul that I wrote about in my book, The Madness of George W. Bush: A Reflection of our Collective Psychosis. As if performing a magic ritual, in exploring the entity of wetiko, we first have to invoke its spirit and enter into relationship with it. After evoking an entity like wetiko, in order to study it as objectively as possible, we have to hermetically seal it within an alchemical container. A Disease of Civilization Wetiko/malignant egophrenia is a disease of civilization, or lack thereof. A Parasite of a Different Order Alien Intrusion To quote Don Juan, "Indeed we are held prisoner!

Why Sociopaths Idealize and Devalue People
Like a black hole, they will suck the energy out of you until you have nothing left to offer, then discard you and blame you because the void is still there. Toxic people (especially narcissists, sociopaths, psychopaths) are often called "energy vampires" because they drain their targets of all natural love, joy, and sanity. Cluster-B personalities are unknowingly lost on a never ending quest to fill in internal void (often referred to as boredom, emptiness, un-feelable emotions, the rejected self). Article Author: Peace
How to execute the perfect ‘hoover manoeuvre’ | Avalanche of the soul
A Quick Guide to Hoovering for the determined domestic abuse perpetrator – and those of us determined to make that permanent break from our abuser. I’m an abuser. Why do I need to hoover? Yes, ordinarily you have a woman to do the vacuuming. But if you wish to keep her at the kitchen sink, you’ll need some ‘hoovering‘ skills of your own.

Psychological Murder: Death By Covert Abuse | Owlcation

The victim is trapped with no way out... or at least that is what they are made to believe. Although victims go through what can only be described as being dragged through hell backwards, narcissistic and sociopathic abuse via heightened communication is so difficult to pick up on the human radar of perception that the victim is usually left scratching their head wondering "is it me?" They have been made to believe that they are the problem. Not only that, they will do it with the person the victim suspects the least.... time and time again. In many cases the victim may turn to drugs or alcohol as a means of escape. Psychological Murder
