What is schizophrenia?
In general, schizophrenia is an overwhelming experience of drowning in the powerful realm of the ‘collective unconscious’ - the deepest level of our shared soul life. It’s a bit like the ocean rushing into a swimming pool. This leads to a dreamlike state of consciousness arising from a dissolved, fragmented, or lost sense of separate individual identity.
The normal boundaries between self and the world break down, such that sufferers - for better and worse - find themselves identifying with everything within their scope of perception. They may appear to be lacking in emotion, but in reality are in an imploded state of emotional intensity, such that heightened sensations of joy and fear are usual.
Because of their fragile personal boundaries, schizophrenia sufferers typically see, hear and sense things that others are unaware of. Secret, or symbolic meanings tend to be seen and heard in everything and the schizophrenia sufferer often feels responsible for the fate of the World.

Bruce: Congratulations, Jason! You’re the first of my kids to graduate college!
Dick: Yeah, first and only one for all eternity!
Bruce: *Ignoring Dick by sheer willpower* Anyway, what are you planning to do next?
Jason: I think I’m going to continue my education in English Lit.
Bruce: *nervously* Great. You’ll get a Master’s Degree, right?
Jason: …
Bruce: …right?
Jason: Actually, I’m going for a PhD.
Bruce: This is a terrible joke. You’re over the supervillainy, right, Jay?
Jason: Look, my application to GothamU’s PhD program was accepted!
Bruce: No child! Of mine! Will get! A PhD!!!
Jason: I’m hoping to be a literature professor at GothamU, if I survive long enough.
Bruce: *screams incoherently*
Dick: I think you broke him.

Apparently the local university’s undergraduate entomology course sends students to catch insect specimens at the same place I like to go birdwatching, which explains why I saw three enormous frat looking dudes with tiny bug nets and overheard one emphatically say “bro BRO I told you we already have enough lepidopterans”

sick of this anti-aging obsession. let's go in the opposite direction. i want more characters who are hardened & grizzled & have a face lined with the harrowing tribulations of time--and then halfway through the narrative u find out they're 27

The Sensitive Child Comes to Bring Joy
Yours Truly, Savoring this Joysicle
It is the sensitive child who brings joy! The sensitive child offers others healing from pain, through humor and art, poetry and dance. The sensitive child emulates Love from the Omnipotent Love they have always known, and never forgotten. They shine this Love to others regularly because it is very deeply ingrained into their hearts to share Love, even when it…

The problem with Victor Frankenstein isn't that he's not as smart as he thinks he is. The problem with Victor Frankenstein is that he's exactly as smart as he thinks he is in one very specific area, and he just expects that to automatically translate to every other area of his life and is taken completely by surprise every single time it doesn't.

I. HATE. IN-TEXT. CITATIONS.
Not just when I'm writing a paper, but when I'm READING a textbook it looks SO messy (Rick-Astley, 1969, p. 420) and it's SO distracting, (Morbius, 2022) and SO disruptive (Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen, & Rudolph, 1964.) to my reading and (Bird, Grouch, Monster, & Monster, 1997 ) learning process. And why are some of them SO FUCKING (According, 2007; To & All, 1991; Known, Laws, & Of, 2378; Aviation, 57 B.C.E.) LONG???

thinking about satoru busting a nut in you ‘cause he made you laugh . .
it’s far from unusual for him to crack a few wits here and there while being balls deep inside of you, when you're focusing all your tensed muscles on achieving a high.
even if you chuckled shortly, you’d follow with a grunt and a ‘shut up’ between pants. you deepen your nails into his back, causing him to flinch in pleasure.
the mattress is creaking in response to his pace, then he jokes about the higher ups, comparing one to something abysmal. as you stutter to shut him up, failing to do so, he has you shaking from giggles ‘cause of the random insult—your anatomy has you clenching around him, pulsating, firm, nearly trapping his length.
satoru grins with you, pausing his movement in the unserious situation. you throw your head back, biting your lip as the laughter’s taken over you, but . .
suddenly his eyes are rolling back, white locks are tickling your chin as he tilts his head down, his back straining under your embrace.
with brows furrowed in confusion, you feel warmth pooling inside you. his seed has filled you up to the brim, length twitching as your tightness milks him dry.
you shift a little at the familiar, fulfilling feeling, and you witness his arm that’s holding onto the headboard tremble as his grip tightens — he’s deep in your cervix by the time he’s finished.
“s’toru..” you heave, “did you jus’… finish?”
“nnyeah—” he clears his vision with some blinks, a silly smile appearing on his face. “maybe if you weren’t so tight—”
your eyes widen in surprise and a bit of offense.
“maybe if you didn’t host a stand-up show in the middle of fucking me?!”
all’s well that ends with you riding him to tears.

Could I request Medic having The Mom Grip on Scout’s shoulder after the speedy moron almost let a mercenary secret slip while they weee getting groceries?
Three Europeans and two Americans walk into a grocery store in New Mexico.
I hope this is the right meme.
More silliness below.
This comic is the antithesis of the "wtf is a kilometre" joke.
The faces they make when they can't quite identify the type of brown bread in the bread aisle.
You don't know how [insert nationality here] you are until you go overseas and things are different.
Spy obviously has no problems with pretending to know how much a gallon of milk is, he just peeks into his conversion chart notes, pretending it's his shopping list.
I want to think Heavy is completely fine with having to readjust to a new unit system, he just eyeballs most practical things anyways by holding them up and mumbling about how they approximately weigh like a chicken or his kettle bell etc. He's always been living in practical ignorant bliss.
Medic has a peer reviewed meltdown the first time he realises there's no uniformity in "a cup of ____" because every object has different densities. He's diligent about memorising the conversion rates for ounces, pounds, the most common things etc., and recovers ok. He goes through the same stages of grief rage when he finds out about distances and lengths.
Just remember four inches are 10.16 cm and pray no one asks you to specify anything bigger than inches.
Everyone does a mental victory lap when they manage to guess how much Celsius the weather is because they keep forgetting it's Celsius*5/9+32=Fahrenheit, Engineer reminds them patiently.
The true victories are the correct temperature guesses we've made along the way.
One time, a friend asked me if I actually knew how much a tablespoon of flour was in gramms to convince me that metric users also make use of volume based units without thinking about them. But little did she know a heaped spoonful of 405 flour is about 15g and a level tablespoon is 10g.
They claim Oolong just tastes better when it's boiled to 80°C exactly with a Bunsen burner.
You only asked for one scene but somehow I came up with a bunch of other things. This post was drawn across 2 months so the artstyle is all over the place. Thanks for your ask!

We need more weird historian rep in Doctor Who. The companions are too normal when faced with the prospect of time travel. I want a companion who makes a list of super specific historical destinations related to their dissertation. I want somebody whose first reaction to finding out that the Doctor is a time travelling alien is to create a Microsoft Word document and ask, “What caused the Late Bronze Age collapse?”

There is never a satisfying answer to ‘Why didn’t they love me?’
