A fulfilling career is nice but the real dream is saying something profound before using your ultimate attack.

As I approach 40, I can't help but think about all the things I'll probably never get to accomplish in life. Like having a short story published, or learning how to fry scream 😔

I can see the N¥T building from my cubicle, and it's very hard not to put sticky notes on the window spelling out a big "you suck so bad"

Hey a thing I really don’t want to get lost here is that while Tylenol doesn’t cause autism, IT’S FINE TO BE AUTISTIC. Let’s not grant them the premise that autism should be eradicated in our way to correct the science, okay? Okay.

Another good paper here

Computer Game Play Reduces Intrusive Memories of Experimental Trauma via Reconsolidation-Update Mechanisms

Memory of a traumatic event becomes consolidated within hours. Intrusive memories can then flash back repeatedly into the mind’s eye and cause distress. We investigated whether reconsolidation—the pro...

Method: Fifty-four participants were randomly assigned to reactivation+Tetris (visuospatial), reactivation+Word games (verbal), or reactivation-only (no task). They watched an aversive film (day 0) and recorded intrusive memories of the film in diary A. On day 4, memory was reactivated, after which participants played Tetris, Word games, or had no task for 10 minutes. They then kept a second diary (B). Informative hypotheses were evaluated using Bayes factors. Results: Reactivation+Tetris and reactivation+Word games resulted in relatively fewer intrusions from the last day of diary A to the first day of diary B than reactivation-only (objective 1 and 2). Thus, both tasks were effective even when applied days after analogue trauma. Reactivation-only was not effective.

Anyone who accidentally saw the footage (and isn't a ghoul like me who is used to things like that) - play some Tetris or a word game. I'm not kidding.

Last night I had a dream that my old roommate and I were visiting some wealthy people we went to college with, in the dream they were living in Belgium or some shit, and they were carefree and enjoying being alive, and I did a lot of furious screaming into a pillow about it

Lol what could that mean

I saw Ghost at Madison Square Garden on July 22 and it was incredibly fun, except I was right behind a girl in a full nun's habit plus corset that she had clearly been festering under for some hours, so the whole time I was like "Sister, can you please get your... fuckin stinky wimple outta my face"
