The impression I got is that symptoms of neurosis and psychosis may be ignored because they're faking them. Some may be, but many may actually need help or something?

I'LL ONLY BEAT MY FIANCEE WHEN I THINK SHE DISRESPECTS ME. BITCH CAN LOWER HER STANDARDS AND FIND SOMEONE ELSE IF SHE DON'T LIKE IT.

I was just unnerved by the idea that thinking too much about something could cause a mental illness, and that even knowing what you're supposed to not be thinking about could make matters worse because trying not to think about something has the opposite effect ohgodohgodohgod.

I will tell you what I find unsettling about this photo, even though it's awesome.

Nobody knows who the man is in the photo. Daguerre wasn't intending to take pictures of any people that day, and it would only have been possible if someone decided to stand still for a while. So he didn't know that he'd captured a person until he developed the plate.

Somewhere, a man lived out his entire life unaware that he was the first person ever photographed. It's possible he never even saw a daguerreotype. He was just going about his day and stood still in just the right place for just the right length of time and now the photograph is studied because he's in it. And we don't know who he is, and he never knew who he was (in a historical sense) either.

Now, we take endless candid photos of our drunk friends in tiny cameras that fit into our phones, and then we instantly upload them to the Internet where millions of people can see how loving stupid our friends look when they're drunk if they wanted to, and it's such a normalized bit of technology. We can attach tiny video cameras to our internal organs to see why they're not working right. The first time parents in the United States ever see their child is likely to be a picture taken through the mother's body well before it's even born. This is where we are, from that shadowy daguerreotype of that street with one man standing in it who never knew that all of this was remotely possible.

I wonder which one of us will be in a museum in 170 years, completely unaware that we are the first people to (fill in the blank), and it's everywhere and so important here in the year 2180, but in 2010 they had no idea...

If you're in Rome, you'll want to see this. Just try to go when it's not too warm out, because you'll be standing in line for a bit, and there's nowhere to sit except the stairs themselves going up to it.

There's a similar church outside of Prague. Really creepy.

It's almost certainly been doctored - each bird's shadow is in a different direction so the photographer would have needed precisely positioned lasers to illuminate the scene naturally.

Fake or not, as art I like it.
