In my opinion, this quote oversimplifies things. The brain does seek balance when hurt, and yes, schadenfreude and even revenge can light up reward circuits. But we’re just as wired for empathy and reflection. Retaliation isn’t the default. It’s simply one option.

Johnnie Walker: Former BBC Radio 2 DJ dies at the age of 79 Tributes are paid to the DJ, who hosted BBC Radio 2's Sounds of the 70s and Rock Show until October.

Sad to hear about #JohnnieWalker. He was such a brilliant entertainer. He’ll be missed. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This package, bound for Dublin, marks the 30th time I’ve sent @lisafeldmanbarrett.bsky.social’s book to someone who has been to one of my talks. The book is both brilliant and relevant to anyone who wants to understand what it means to be human!

On a quick visit to the North East. Popped to see my Mum and wish her happy birthday for next week. She would have been 78. ❤️‍🩹

It always makes me smile when I see these two street names—one leading to the other! 🫣

We should be more alarmed with the “I’m not familiar with this film” numbers. I mean, how can 37% of people not be familiar with The Holiday or Trading Places?

It's incredible how quickly you can retrain your 'muscle memory' (or more accurately, your habitual neural pathways) to stop instinctively clicking on Twitter and start visiting Bluesky instead. These new neural connections form surprisingly fast!

You aren't looking hard enough. Maria’s Market Cafe is THE place to go.
