Schauer Thoughts

• Speculating About: “Trauma Making Us Funny”

  Yes, trauma can be funny and “make” us funny to some degree! Sure! But here on Schauer Thoughts, a podcast for left and right brainers, we simply must explore the psychological crevices. Hopefully we can all laugh about this later and enjoy the endorphin rush.  Resources: Ancient & Healthy: The Science of Laughter https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/315290#The-neuroscience-of-laughter Effects of Mirthful Laughter on Pain Tolerance: A randomized controlled investigations  https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1360859219301184 Social Laughter is Correlated with an Elevated Pain Threshold  https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3267132/#RSPB20111373C35 The informational and facilitative effects of an audience upon expression and the evaluation of humorous stimuli  https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/0022103175900165 Neural Basis of the Behavioral Contagion and Authenticity of Laughter  https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0010945221002380?via%3Dihub Laughing Through the Pain: An Analysis of Dark Humor in Trauma-and-Crisis Centered Occupations  https://pdxscholar.library.pdx.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=2550&context=honorstheses Alt-Right Pipeline Indoctrination  https://firstmonday.org/ojs/index.php/fm/article/view/10108 “Evolutionary Stages of Minorities in the Mass Media” An Application of Clark’s Model to American Indian Television Representations  https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/10646175.2010.519651#:~:text=Clark%20wrote%20that%20minorities%20are,ridicule%2C%20regulation%2C%20and%20respect.

• Contemplating “Good, Clean, Honest Labor”

  Okay final part in my series on the demonization of play and the exaltation of work, thank you so much for listening and learning. Also, you do not have to memorize, understand, or accept this immediately. Capitalism has taught you that your worth is tied to your work and that you are a tool and that is fundamentally incorrect, it is a lie. Make sure to like, subscribe, and comment, I love reading y’alls feedback. I hope your perspective is just a wee bit refreshed - you are worthy because you exist.

• Contemplating: Capitalism and “Disgust”

  Got a little side tracked (but not really) on our discussion of the demonization of play and the exaltation of labor, but most morality is rooted in disgust so good, evil, disgusting, compelling, you get it.

• Contemplating: The Demonization of Pleasure & Play

  Well it’s looking like another two parter! This week on Schauer Thoughts: the demonization, moralization, and general uncertainty around play and pleasure. So let’s slip into our skin suits and crank up the heat, we’ve got a lot of internalized beliefs about work to scrub raw from our left and right hemispheres, might have to even get in the crack. Sources: Rest is Resistance - Tricia Hersey Decolonizing Therapy - Jennifer Mullan PsyD Mathematics for Human Flourishing - Francis Su I believe the eyeliner joke is from Cat Cohen (cat_cohen on TT) - if I’m wrong please let me know.  If there are any sources I’ve left out, please feel free to let me know in the Youtube comments, I’ll get to you ASAP.
