If they can find one notionally accredited scientist/doctor who agrees with their wacko feelings then all that consensus can just gently caress right off in their view.

I appreciate your patience, this is a tricky maneuver

It's amazing to me that only a few years ago anti-vaxx was one of the only brands of Presidential thinking that was wholly attributed to the left. It was less-than-correct, but the prevailing belief was that it was a fringe belief specific to chiropractors, power-crystal wine moms, and barefoot granola eaters. So the right just took anti-vaxx and went pro with it, I guess to prove that they can? So now it's just another right-wing Presidential belief among many.

yeah the qanon "save the children" poo poo combined with covid anti-vaxxers were huge for flipping those types of "vaccine skeptic mom who posts in facebook groups about how crystal healing cures autism" types from being liberal-ish to actively being on the far right

Additionally, for the past decade or so, the manosphere fully believes that women--especially n-wave feminists that claim to hate men--are only willing to submit to Muslim men because their :biotruths: take over and they get turned on by the "alpha" Islamic culture's treatment of women and the natural Chadness of Muslim men. They also believe that covering the head/hair is like a gateway drug for women to finally realize their rightful place in society. The red-pillers have nothing but praise for the ways that women get treated in Saudi Arabia, etc., but they also hate brown people and foreign things, so in the end they can't reconcile the ideas. They've painted migrant crisis in Europe as a "they're coming to steal all the white women! We can't compete!" crisis instead of a humanitarian one. By treating Muslims as human beings, people in the West are all outing ourselves as being so tolerant that we're sacrificing our own culture, ethnicity, and female commodities to Muslims. Basically, we're cultural and race traitors.

It all adds up to a hosed up situation

If you have ADD/ADHD Ritalin et al, actually help you sleep. Without it, it just turns you bonkers through lack of quality sleep.

I was diagnosed ADD and ADHD, met every diagnostic criteria and then some, and while I did think these drugs helped me focus they completely hosed with my sleep and personality which led to depression, anxiety and worse problems. We're all pretty different and I don't think we can really make generalizations about people with or without ADD or most other quasi-dubious DSM psych crit will respond to a given drug. Or, for that matter, how someone without any diagnosis will.

My partner has always responded to adderall in the "not anxious, chilled out, focused and calming" way with usually good sleep following and often a mood boost that lasts for days after a single 10mg dose. At no point have they ever met the diagnostic criteria for ADHD :shrug:

I hated the poo poo so much I learned how to fake swallow it so I could fool the school nurse and then go spit it out at the drinking fountain. gently caress methylphenidate. Amphetamine was more tolerable, but, also, gently caress it, makes my anxiety and tinnitus go haywire.

The fact that midterms and finals week were always hallmarked by friends trying to hit me up for adderall in college, also was instructive as far as "huh actually I think most people benefit from small, normal doses of amphetamine if they are trying to focus on a project or prepare or take an exam". So it's all pretty blurry to me.

edit: diagnosing celebrities with mental disorders and drug addictions based on their insane online ramblings is fine as far as I am concerned, though, because it can be hilarious and who gives a poo poo if anyone is right or wrong, we're just dunking on puppies here.

This new Twitter policy contravenes the previous new Twitter policy, which was that any further Twitter policy changes would be subject to polling.
And that new Twitter policy was also contravened when it became



So this new policy is not only vague and non-scientific, it hasn't been 'confirmed' by polling.

Also I just noticed: the new "View" numbers in tweets are science fiction, without basis in reality.
