i get your perspective and thank you for sharing. i posit that if their circumstances are traumatizing enough, those many people would reroute their brains to compartmentalize. its a luxury that they hadn’t had to. it’s not a ‘skill’ that is “learned” in a typical fashion. theres no school book for it.

some learn it in order to survive. others learn it to control situations - you can control how you react to things, which disarms lots of aggression/bullying. its even stronger to not actually get sad or angry when its justifiable, as cooler heads more often prevail. to wear your heart on your sleeve is a luxury afforded to the safe people.

The manufacturer that announced car tires made out of mushrooms is Michelin.

Random true story: A guy named Vincent was at home in New Jersey, dialed the phone number of his good friend, and Vincent’s wife answered the phone. He immediately assumed they were having an affair and got in a shouting match.

Turns out he accidently misdialed a digit and rang up a payphone, which his wife just happened to be walking past when it started to ring. He said it was the weirdest thing that ever happened to him.
