:whistle:
Some of these personality tests may look familiar to turkers.

(Ars Technica):
How World War II scientists invented a data-driven approach to fighting fascism
The F-scale personality test measured authoritarianism in US citizens.


I really tried to take the F-scale "How Much of a Fascist Are You" test, but didn't get a code
. :p
all the personality disorders, imho, are junk science -
(but if you invent one, you get instantly famous in the field!)
I think if people really knew what was at the bottom of DSM - they'd be pretty shocked..............

Oh, sweet. I'm more worried about donating the actual money than I am the perks. Thanks so much for checking Kryssyy.
No problem. Like Sondi @Sondi said, we manual update to contributor status. Jaded @Jaded usually catches it first because she receives the emails, but we all try to keep an eye on it. It does tell us in the admin panel when it's confirmed via paypal.

I agree, with all the shit ive been "diagnosed" with I shouldn't be able to be a functioning member of society if theyre all true. They just see these "disorders" as opportunities to get people to tap that big pharma vein and start dosing people young.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I'd caution that last bit. There is no way in hell I'd be functioning without meds. I barely do as it is. I needed them, and other people DO legitimately need them. It's just worrying badly about things like pharma in general causes more fear and suspicion than it does healthy management of your own care. Worries me quite a bit to throw an accusation like that. Some of the personality disorders are weirdly defined and not really scientific at all. Trying to come up with a way to classify oddities is basically half of what it is. But yeah, accusing "big pharma" is different than taking healthy skepticism about whether you really NEED a medicine or not.

Finally got the rejection I was waiting for from VowlesLab. Looks like most everyone else that took it got rejected too. I'm not mad about the rejection itself, I submitted the survey early by accident so it was incomplete, but I lost my fake 100% :arghh:
Mine already approved and paid.

Okay, now I'm slightly starting to panic. Does anyone see that the site donations bar has gone up? Paypal told me I donated and it's pending in my acct or something but Idk if my donation actually went through because this is odd and I'm worrying that I didn't approve the donation properly.........
Yes we got it!! Sorry was afk
