Dear 3 years old,
there was a time when people didn't wear masks & we enjoyed their words & smiles, when we could go to restaurants, shops, concerts, gyms all year, when we could choose where to travel without bans, quarantines & swabs to check if sick, when hugging was the norm

psychology is such a charlatan, garbage study

i've witnessed psychologists regularly contradicting themselves; it has no objective roots or contingent laws of nature or logic

Other methods
echo *
printf "%s\n" *
find /dir/ -ls
du -a -d 1 | awk '{print $2}'
stat -c %n *
grep -l '.*' ./*
du -sh *
awk '{print FILENAME;nextfile}' *

It’s weird how as a culture were totally fine with decapitation, blood everywhere, beheadings, shootings galore but the most innocuous forms of nudity freak people out.

Or on the other hand, we’re totally okay with our daughters incurring so much debt they feel compelled to sell gaping asshole shots. Yeah that’s okay for some reason but not the Coppertone logo.
