《500+ Psychology Facts | ✍》651-655
Advertisement
651. Erotomania is a rare disorder in which someone believes that someone from a higher social status is in love with them.
652. The most lethal psychiatric disorder is anorexia; between 5%–20% of sufferers die from it.
653. Some psychologists view shyness as an evolutionary advantage. While braver animals may have more food and more mates, shy animals avoid attacks and live longer.
654. Exceptionally attractive women are at a disadvantage when seeking a job associated with particularly masculine qualities. For example, if a more attractive woman and a less attractive woman compete for a job as a tow truck driver or operating a switchboard, the more attractive woman rarely wins the job. Researchers suggest that a highly attractive woman is perceived as less capable of meeting the job’s requirement for masculine qualities than an unattractive woman.
655. Studies show that women laugh at men they’re attracted to, and men are attracted to women who laugh at them. From a man’s perspective, saying a woman has good sense of humor doesn’t mean she makes jokes; it means she laughs at his jokes.

The Paradigm - LitRPG Apocalypse
Blair Corbin finds herself whisked away from her first-ever job interview and to say she’s confused is an understatement. However, she’s a realist. If something has happened, it has happened. She has to live with its repercussions, and Blair now finds herself in a concrete jungle where people are more than willing to throw each other under the bus and beasts roam the streets. In a world where electricity has disappeared and everything has collapsed, she struggles to find her place among the survivors. She has no skills that are of use to this new community. After all, what use is a programmer when there aren’t any devices to run her code? That's when she realizes that she's good at killing things. Tread carefully. Despite what the Cover may say, the Protagonist will not get a hold of a trident for a good while. Those things are like mid-game weapons, you know?

The Queen's Guard
Friedrich Schreiner is a proud gefreiter of the Queen's Guard, 2nd Company: the finest fighting infantry on the continent (barring the Temple Guard; but please don't bring that up). Service is honourable but, with the Empire on a peacetime footing, terribly boring. Affairs take a dramatic turn for the worse when a mysterious invader uses a forgotten and taboo magical means to breach the capital, plunging the nation into chaos and endangering the royal family. With events spiraling out of control, Friedrich is entrusted with a critical mission. Will hot lead, cold steel, and his determination be enough to see him through? The Queen's Guard is what I'm calling a black powder fantasy story: it's set in a loose equivalent of the early 18th century (plus or minus a few pieces I decided I wanted or didn't want). Magic exists, but not in a spell-slinging sort of way: it's Earth-shaking undertakings or minor enchantments forged in by master craftsmen, the grand working of a secretive cabal or a slight nudge to the course of a blow. I, the eternal optimist, have a full trilogy in mind. The first book is The Prince's Arquebusier, hence the cover and the title disagreeing! This is my shot at 2021's NaNoWriMo and RR Writathon! I've hitherto been terrible at writing long-form fiction, so this is an effort to break out of that by having some accountability in being supposed to post chapters regularly. Here's hoping it works! I have an outline, but not too much detail. I'll do my best to avoid continuity errors, doing anything glaringly stupid, or otherwise fluffing my lines, but I can't make any promises on that. Please do let me know any feedback! Always happy to improve. [participant in the Nov 2021 Royal Road Writathon challenge]
