Pyschology

A brain-tree hybrid under an oppressive green sky.

Psychology is the scientific study of mind and behavior in both humans and non-humans. It is an academic discipline of immense scope, crossing the boundaries between the natural and social sciences.

I took an introductory psych college course when I was 14 and then fucked off after completing it, that's the extent of my official expertise with this field. Unofficially, I have been intensely studying the minds and behaviors of others my whole life, for reasons that are obvious to those who look over the following pages of this site:
