My pet theory is that religious practice is largely derived from the same neural processes that led to B.F. Skinner's superstitious pigeons.

Correlation is not causation: thousands of charts of real data showing actual correlations between ridiculous variables.

in these moments, in my view, it is a political and spiritual DUTY for my outrage and anger to be as fresh as if I'd never heard how they shot Fred Hampton in his bed. As fresh as if I didn't know Bobby Hutton was surrendering when they shot him. 1/2

the daycare thing isn’t a distraction it’s a test run. Pause funding. Cheaper daycares rely on it the most and will close sooner than others. Mid range and high end daycares will raise their prices with increased demands. Moms will be forced out of the workforce/to stay in bad marriages. Suffering.

I always appreciate seeing papers like this. Conventional perspective is that psychosis responds generally only to meds, but that's not the case. Whether it's the research on assertive community treatment or this paper, targeted psychotherapy can help. academic.oup.com/schizophreni...

My hot take as someone who minored in biology in undergrad is that viruses are alive, and if they don't meet our arbitrary definition of "life" then that definition needs to shift, because viruses are, say it with me, definitely alive.

What is the hope with posts like this? That some wayward nazi will see it and think "gee, I should be ashamed of how I've treated minority groups"? You cannot shame these people by accusing them of racism and bigotry: the racism and the bigotry are the main selling points. The cruelty is the point.

You know what's always fun for me is getting a testing referral from a mid-level who is "an expert in ADHD" but who can't explain the underlying features of neurodevelopmental disorders beyond platitudes about neurodivergence.

You can call them cruel. You can call them bullies. You can call them racist, or nazis, or fascists. You can call them xenophobic, or just hateful. But in the end, that persuades no one, because, to them, those are all good things to be.

One thing I emphasize a lot with parents of suicidal children is that the single biggest thing you can do to prevent a youth suicide is promote their meaningful social connection with others. What I invariably hear from the kids, though, is "I don't need to go out, my friends are on discord."

This is true. But while we're on the subject, I wish more people would look up "traumatic invalidation", because, while you can't compare trauma, there is a difference between "someone tried to kill me" and "my dad yelled at me and called me names a lot."
