Map titled “‘Book’ in Languages of West Africa” showing translations and etymologies of the word “book” across various languages. Each word is color-coded by etymological source: • Green for Arabic derivations (e.g., kitāb, takarda, deftere), • Yellow for words derived from “leaf” (e.g., ebe, fún, ayɨm), • Red for words derived from “animal skin” (e.g., gane, gabuang, nwomta), • Purple for unknown or other origins (e.g., buk, sébrè, kɔlɔ). Arrows indicate borrowing paths between languages. Some regions use loanwords from English (e.g., buk in Krio), while others retain indigenous terms. Insets show sign language signs for “book” in Gambian and Adamorobe Sign. The map includes linguistic and etymological notes and is densely labeled with names of languages across West Africa.
It’s beautiful to watch the flow of an idea as it moves through time and cultures

An infographic titled “Stages of Mania in Bipolar I–II” from “one impossible thing at a time” by Luke Steuber. It is divided into five sections, each describing a different stage of mania, accompanied by blue and yellow illustrations. 1. Euthymia (yellow background): Quote: “Is this happiness? Is my bipolar cured?” • Stable phase called “normal.” • Responsible, focused, confident. • Worries about depression, may delay tasks. • Often diagnosed as cyclothymia. Illustration: Person holding balanced scales. 2. Hypomania (blue background): Quote: “Sorry to ghost you! I swear it won’t happen again!” • Easier social interactions, active on social media. • Starts projects like writing a business plan, overspending. • Rapid profile picture changes. • Thoughts speeding up. • Considered the limit of Bipolar II. Illustration: Person raising a hand with a light bulb above, standing in front of a crowd. 3. Mania (Manic Episode) (yellow background): Quote: “I’m not manic, listen, I think we can sell this.” • No need to eat, drink, or sleep. • Starts many projects impulsively. • Makes others uncomfortable. • Experiences “time dilation.” • Hypersexual, emotional, dehydrated. Illustration: Crowned figure standing above a group of smaller figures. 4. Mania (Mixed Episode) (blue background): Quote: “Maybe if I finish this one last thing I will matter.” • Energetic yet deeply sad. • Risk for substance abuse and self-harm. • Associated with creativity. • Quick but fixated thoughts. Illustration: Person surrounded by icons of droplets, flames, and hearts, representing intense emotions. 5. Psychosis (Psychotic Episode) (yellow background): Quote: “No time to discuss mania; bugs in the mattress.” • Psychosis is a state, not a condition. • More common in formal thought disorders. • Most likely in Bipolar I mania. • Important to have a plan; warn emergency services if necessary. Illustration: Person with question marks over their head and bugs around them.
A year or so ago the bipolar community here contributed to some infographics I put together. I just made some updates to the “Mania for Normies” handout; more feedback is always welcome, these are living docs!
I’d love for folks to share it with anyone who could benefit 😃
🙌 thank you carry on
I made a little site to consolidate a bunch of things I’ve shared here (or built for here). Among other things:
• alt text generator
• bipolar resources
• accessibility list
• data visualizations
• blueFlyer posting tool
• social account finder
• source code, much more, etc

High res image of the day: frequency and impact of autoimmune disorders!
Recommended, this is legit informative
I’ve put together a new high res image viewer and will be sharing some other interesting graphics between my own visualizations
What do you think of this explainer of left vs right? Presented without further comment
… which, in a sad way, gives me hope. At the end of the day there’s money behind all of this, and the money is turning hard.
It’s not at all unrealistic to say the dollar might lose its role as a currency, and that is making people lose their minds (not the deportations or layoffs, mind you)
This is an interactive I put together of the board and executive overlap between DOW30 companies. It’s incredibly incestuous. And Chevron is its heart
I was going to wait to share this because I just shared the global wealth one, but most of these are in freefall today
Yeah that gave me a little pause so I double checked - it’s the GDP vs market cap thing; it just happens to be more “valuable” than Saudi’s annual economic output. They’re hoarding!

First post!
This is a site I made that lets you compare the net worth of billionaires and corporations to the GDP of entire countries.
Take a look! I want to raise awareness of the scale. There are many people and companies with more wealth than the annual output of nations.
Let’s fix it.
