Zero sum thinking reinforced in our capitalist system has severely limited people's critical thinking abilities.

People should not be indiscriminately bombed. Neither side needs to do this more or less than the other for it always to remain true.

My daughter is extremely upset this evening. Why? She learned that some animals can see more colours than she can, and see into the ultraviolet spectrum. This is apparently deeply unfair, and very possibly her supervillain origin.

i understand they're getting a lot of criticism, but just in general, i think it's great that harvard has its own college. i think more football teams should have their own colleges. imagine if there was a jets college. how fun would that be

Waiting for the methylphenidate to kick in so I can be a good lil synthetic neurotypical and finally get some studying done. Perpetually amazed by people who can just like... *do* things when they want/need to. Magic!

This is why I hardly ever mention my atheism; I don't want to be associated with the edgy "Why does your sky daddy give babies cancer if he loves you so much?" Reddit crowd. This also shows that theism isn't correlated with having a good character. Plenty of theists and atheist assholes around.

Heading into the weekend, let’s remember the power of rest for our self-regulation.

In a world that rushes & pushes relentlessly, it’s okay to pause, breathe, and embrace tranquility.

Rest isn’t just a break; it’s a vital part of our life as autistic humans.

Curious about the psychologists and psychiatrists in #PsychSciSky, are you lot seeing an improvement in cognitive functions in your ASD/AuDHD patients on methylphenidate in adults, too?

I have been diagnosed with both ADHD and ASD, and have been experimenting (with the guidance of my dr) with methylphenidate for two months now. And even though rebound can be gnarly, I am blown away by the positive impact these tiny tablets have on my life so far.

Use of Methylphenidate to Improve Cognition in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) | European Psychiatry ... Use of Methylphenidate to Improve Cognition in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) - Volume 66 Issue S1

An interesting study for my AuDHD and autistic friends; a meta-study shows that methylphenidate has a proven positive effect for ppl with ADHD, but it also seems to improve cognitive skills for ppl on the spectrum: www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

i've said it before and i'll say it again any men falling for very obvious uncanny valley AI girls really has convinced me that those folk tales where a man falls in love with what is very obviously a demon lady would 100% happen in real life today

Screenshot of Google search results for "do worms die in the winter" that says "During winter most worms stay in their burrows, prisoners below soil frozen hard as rock and topped by ice and snow. They are coiled into a slime-coated ball and go into a sleep-like state called estivation, which is similar to hibernation for bears. (The mucous, or slime, keeps the worms from drying out.)"

I'm so glad the worms in my garden are safely entombed in slime rn #estivating

Tweet by InternetHippo: Hypocrisy is cool actually. I love having one standard for myself and a less favorable one for the people I don't like. It's not illegal and you can't stop me

This brilliant tweet by @internethippo.bsky.social needs to shine on bsky, too. Funny because it's true.

My body: so heyyyy, you're ovulating, so I'm making you extra horny. So why don't you put on a slutty dress and go out and get fertilised πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‰
Also my body: due to the hormonal changes you'll become severely bloated and gassy during your ovulation, so good luck with feeling sexy πŸ’©

I'd love to finally improve my gut health after years of trying everything. The reduced autism is just a nice bonus 🀭

Yes! Sometimes I even cry without knowing why. It used to worry me, but now I see it as something good. Apparently I was bothered by something, and now there's a physical release. Body must do that for a reason, I guess.
