Jolie is in contact with a researcher about her condition of synesthesia. The friend jokes that Jolie should make this her Facebook status as it shows she has taken her interest to an obsessive level. The friend was also troubled by Jolie calling their past Facebook status cryptic, as cryptic statuses have a negative connotation of being passive-aggressive calls for attention.
Hoaxers and 'fake news' claims emerge in Cleveland Facebook killer caseJimmyGFlores
As police worked to fill in the puzzle of Steve Stephens' life, his inner demons and his shooting of an innocent man on a Glenville street, conspiracy theorists took to YouTube. They posted homemade videos or hosted YouTube-style podcasts refuting multiple claims by Cleveland police and federal investigators.

THE CASE OF WENDY
Text on screen: A Black client, Wendy, talked to her White therapist, Lisa, about challenges in single parenting and going to school. At one point, Lisa repeated several times,
Lisa: "Wendy, it's amazing how well you're doing. I can't believe you were able to get straight A's through all this. You're so incredibly smart."
Text on screen: Wendy eventually replied sarcastically,
Wendy: "Yeah, some of us are."
Text on screen: Later, Wendy talked about not getting a recent job due to racism. Wendy, the client, noted that the therapist began to avoid her eyes and move backward in her chair. Lisa, attempting to reframe the event positively, asked,
Lisa: "Is there a possibility that the person with more experience was hired for the job and it wasn't racism?"
Text on screen: Wendy replied with an openly hostile expression,
Wendy: "Never mind. You don't get it, do you?"
Text on screen: Shocked, Lisa did not know how to reply. Eventually, she veered the subject back to single parenting, attempting to get Wendy to focus on her anger that came in her loud voice and waving hands. At one point, Wendy stated with irritation,
Wendy: "I don't want to talk about my damn feelings, I want to figure out how to handle graduating in this system that's hostile to me."
Text on screen: After the session, Lisa processed her experience with a (White) supervisor, saying,
Lisa: "I think Wendy is just so angry. She seemed really threatening to me."
Text on screen: The supervisor noted the importance of using a certain assessment to check for the presence of any deeper psychopathology, if she seemed "unstable." Lisa noted silently that the assessment course she took marked this assessment as culturally inappropriate for African Americans. Out loud, she voiced uncertainty as to the presence of psychopathology. That hadn't been a question to her at all. The supervisor stated,
Supervisor: "The assessment is a place to start. We have to make sure she's not a threat to her children. Unfortunately, my experience is that Black men often don't stick around to help, so we can't count on the father for much support, I'm sure."
Text on screen: Lisa's final words in supervision were,
Lisa: "I think Wendy could get better help from someone else. Is there another therapist we could refer her to?"
Text on screen: She decided to set Wendy up with an intern who is Asian American (there are no Black interns available). However, it was a moot point, as Wendy did not return for her next session.

1. Personal correspondence
Project: E-mail reply
Client: My friend Jolie, who experiences something called “synesthesia”
You’re in touch with a researcher? That’s like one step short of publishing a newsletter and starting an
Internet radio show. Sounds vaguely conspiratorial. It’s what people do when they want to take an idea
they’ve just kind of been kicking around to the next level ... THE OBSESSION LEVEL.
I guess what I’m saying is you should make “in touch with a researcher” your Facebook status.
Speaking of which, I’m troubled that you thought my status update from last weekend was “cryptic,” even
though I know it was, because “cryptic” status updates have a negative connotation; i.e., a passive-
aggressive way to get people to ask you about something you’re dying to get off your chest. Pretty sure
we’ve discussed this. And even if we haven’t, we don’t really need to, because we’re both keen observers of
human behavior; as such, we recognize that passive-aggressiveness is so inherently obnoxious that
discussing it would be akin to pointing out how getting punched in the face hurts really bad.
I’d like to think we simply don’t have time for such pedestrian observations.
Well, at least I don’t.
