if you’re anything like me, working on a computer is a dangerous thing. i’ll get distracted by everything – that one email i should respond to, all the pictures of my dog, tumblr, and so on. I recently discovered an amazing resource to stop that.
when you open it, it shows this screen, where you can choose either a time limit or word goal
then when you start, it opens a document that fills the entire screen like this
and you cannot quit the app or open anything else until your word/time quota is filled. i just wrote half of my english speech that i’ve been putting off all morning, and it took only 20 minutes!
so yup, it’s called writer’s block and is free for both mac and windows. enjoy!
Haha, he cut up frogs and birds? Did he kill them on his own, or did he find them dead and then cut them up? I don’t care about the rest, I want to know about this particular thing
He was killing them and when asked why he was mutulating the specimens he’s quoted as saying he “wanted to see what’s inside”.
This is CLASSIC psychopathic behavior down to the purported reason for mutilation.
I’ve read quite a few books on psycho killers and this behavior is so often repeated across the individual narratives that it’s established as a clinical marker of descent towards homicidal behavior.
What’s interesting to me in comparison with other emerging killers is that he seemed to not give a fuck who witnessed what he was doing. With the bird he killed it, brought it in his house and threw it on the kitchen counter with others present. No one was correcting him or he was in such a sociopathic bubble that the sentiment of others had no bearing on his behavior.
Guys like Dahmer at least were sensitive enough to perform their animal mutulations in isolation and guarded secrecy sensing the norms they were violating and the resistance or suspicion they would generate in other people.
