GoodyTwoShoes posted:Somewhere, I have an Andre Norton book, where people in the far future are addressed as "gentle homo" and "gentle femme" (formal occasions and rich customers). Can you imagine how well that would go over nowadays? I think it was from the 1960s. since when are "homo" and "femme" opposites? i don't even know any hetero femmes

Could it be that "homo" in this sense is an evolution of the word "homme", which I think is French for male, opposed to "femme" for female?

Vib Rib posted:To be fair Las Vegas is a very small and quiet little town with no real festivities so anyone asking for actors is definitely referring to this one event. I got the image from Snopes too, so it's almost guaranteed to be the one going around with some dumb conspiracy attached to it that he saw.

quidditch it and quit it posted:That’s a very different context, surely? They directly told us in my master's program to avoid "dudes" and "guys" because of reasons other posters have already mentioned. I just called my collective class of students "y'all" and "folks" because it's really not that hard, and then I never had to worry about what-ifs. Maybe it's easier to understand as a girl who hung out with groups of boys and got tired of being called one of the guys.

Basically people with adhd respond oppositely to a lot of stimulents, so amphetamines actually calm them down.

Tunicate posted:Basically people with adhd respond oppositely to a lot of stimulents, so amphetamines actually calm them down. That's not exactly accurate but it's kind of close. Basically, ADHD causes problems with your brain's executive function- your ability to focus on things, make desicions regarding getting your poo poo done, things of that nature. There's two neurotransmitters, dopamine and norepinephrine, that really help with executive function, and it just happens that stimulants dump a bunch of that into your brain. It's not making your brain slow down, it's just getting your levels of certain neurotransmitters to a neighborhood where you can focus on what you need to focus on instead of bouncing from activity to activity and idea to idea. There's still the appetite surpression, there's still an increased heart rate and all that. It just happens that bringing certain things up from level a to level b changes behavior in a different way than bringing it from level b to level c.

Elviscat posted:The really concerning thing about TERFs is that they're former/pretend progressives, enemies on the inside so to speak. Case in point: Linda Bellos. Back in the 80s she was the poster child for the anti-Thatcher "Loony Left", and the London council that she was a leader of was one of the last holdouts in the rate-capping rebellion. Now, she's happily rubbing shoulders with the Heritage Foundation.

Amusingly, meth is actually in the formulary for ADHD treatment. Levo-methamphetamine is available otc as a decongestant, too.
