You Should Know
YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Can I ask what role she did? I read a book last year called 'The Devil You Know - Tales of Forensic Psychiatry'. It was very illuminating and interesting, each chapter a different (anonymised) story of one of her patients. Especially her 'bike lock' theory of why some people can commit such horrific crimes.
'Bike lock' theory?
She posits that some people have a 'combination lock' which, when the right numbers all come up together, pushes them over the line into a horrific violent act.
EG if someone was beaten by their father as a child, go through some trauma as an adult, are under a lot of stress, then some guy in the street who looks a lot like their dad used to starts screaming at him because he bumped into him, then BLAM they're smashing his face in with a nearby brick before they understand what's happening.
Whoa shit 😳
I didn't know Muse did psychological studies. Fascinating!
Uh, I think she was a handler, of sorts. Don't rightfully know, I just know it was a job with a lot of risks and it was hella stressful. Her workplace had one "inmate" escape and murder a 9-year old one time and that was just, well devastating.
I take my hat off to anyone who does these sorts of jobs, it must be very mentally gruelling.
