What do you remember that 95% of us have forgotten?

Jet magazine and the accompanying “Jet Beauty”

Copiers were exceptionally expensive when I was a kid and so schools and most businesses used a machine like this if they had to make a small number of copies.

Cigarette ads on the rear cover of EVERY magazine:

I’m wondering about attachment and transference with the therapist and the idea of escape and fantasy? How much do you think your strong feelings, constant thoughts, desires to be with your therapist are a way to escape from your present life? I wonder if the transference serves another purpose than to show us our wounds and/or past experiences, but is a present coping strategy for managing what we don’t want to face (even if unconsciously) in the present—-current relationships, life circumstances, etc. Can anyone relate to this concept of escape in relation to their therapy relationship?

What can I do when I'm ugly on both outside and inside? What do I do? Cut myself off from the world to make everyones lives better? I'm a monster. I hurt feelings, and I say what was said to me. I feel like I'm nothing but a burden. What do I do?

Hmmm…..

Question: What do you remember that 95% of us have forgotten?

Since I don’t know 95% of you I can only guess…..

What was the most challenging shift you experienced as an ER physician? Can you describe the details and reasons behind it?

A magazine started in 1951 that highlighted the African American community in the United States in an era where Black issues and people were not reported on in the mainstream. This was a weekly magazine until 2009 and it was in print until 2014. While it’s now in digital form (along with its companion magazine Ebony) The Jet Beauty was one of the few places that attractive African American models could be seen, although the sexist nature of photos was always a minor controversy.

Has anyone experienced an out of the body experience, as a child, years before you had ever heard the term or understood the implications?
