I think it depends and I think the study more accurately reflects how rumination can escalate anger, not that venting doesn’t reduce anger.

If one normally keeps it bottled up, then the occasional venting helps to reduce the pressure of keeping it bottled up and in my experience can break the cycle of not being able to let the thing go. If someone vents in a way that allows then to ruminate less over time then it is a benefit. As this study and previous studies were described, the person who just vented their anger was found to still be angry immediately after they were intentionally ruminating on the thing that made them angry. That is like measuring heart rate immediately after exercising.

I do think the study showes that ruminating on things that make us angry does work us up more than not thinking about them. From personal experience venting about something I have bottled up does reduce rumination starting an hour or so afterwards.

Curses, you are right!

Every other president had an increase. Every single one. Not even breaking a record, creating a new one by failing twice.

Some narcissistic traits are not limited to narcissists, but if tou avoid these two common ones it will cover the vast majority of people that fall into the category of what you are trying to avoid.

Are they unable to accept criticism or see things from other people’s viewpoints and overreact to those types of things?

Are they fine with harming other people if it benefits them personally?

If someone exhibits either of these then they will be extremely difficult to work with or get along with, and impossible to deal with if they exhibit both.

CSI: X-Files

No idea, but wouldn’t be surprised.

They made themselves taste delicious!

15 Nothing outside a person can defile them by going into them. Rather, it is what comes out of a person that defiles them.”

Jesus is against the pull out method confirmed.

On the technical side they could abuse API calls although that wouldn’r be necessary because using the current API setup but flooding it with massive amounts of data would be a burden on locally hosted instances. The main reason I am opposed to Threads and other social media federating with their massive amounts of mediocre to crap data would be overwhelming for both instances and users. Yeah, there are blocks and all that but if the server is dying from being overwhelmed with traffic it doesn’t matter.

The big players can damage the fediverse simply by being allowed to federate.

An illegal version maybe. There is zero reason why the price should change because two cars were hooked up to the same power source. Two cars dexiding between 8 ooen spots could get 1/2 charge because they happened to park next to each other.

That would be like pricing gas based on how many people where using the same pump.

I didn’t even care for Picard in Picard, and I love Picard!

Don’t call out their typing impediment like that!

Gary is a cabal of gay witches confirmed.

I don’t see it addressed in the article… Are they legally able to charge for the electricity itself there?

Yes, that is why they are cracking down on places where they are charging for the time period.

The stop-use order was applied one day after Weights and Measures received an email alerting them that the charging stations in a parking garage near the Mall at Columbia were billing users $2.35 per hour. Apparently, it is not allowed to sell EV charging by any other means than by the kWh in Maryland.

Many of these HHC-owned chargers have shared power, meaning multiple vehicles share the available electricity, which can reduce the charging speed. If both ports are in use at a shared-power station, the energy delivered (kWh) per hour can be halved, resulting in a higher cost per kWh.

A lot of ‘word of mouth’ fads are initiated by clever marketing pretending to be word of mouth.

Not trying to blame victims

You are doing exactly that.

The goal is for them to simply not be able to incriminate themselves in a court of law by way of they simply didn’t know the law.

Ignorance of the law is not a defense unless you are enforcing the law.

Can’t write your own comments?

Oh yeah, your comment was a great addition!

The central phone office frequently has its own backup generators or independent power supplies which is what I was referring to.
