Here’s the first 37s of my 1hr Memory lecture for my Cog Neuro course. Husband (who does great face paint) said, “You’re that cat gif, the one that doesn’t give a fuck and pushes all the items off all the shelves”. 🐈 😹😿

Honestly amazing how every illegal immigrant is simultaneously a destitute ward of the state AND fully approved for 30 year mortgages and soaking up all the quarter million dollar housing stock.

R.E.M. lied to me about the end of the world as we know it. I do not feel fine.

maybe she’s born with it, maybe she uses humor and fiction as defense mechanisms to deal with her chronic anxiety and the nagging worry that the world as she knows it will end in her lifetime

I’m seeing a lot of posts saying people will die because Roe has been overturned. That is definitely true. But perhaps not for the reasons you think.

Yet again, we are told that the civil rights of adults are more important than the lives of children, but when I ask if MY civil rights over my own body are similarly important, no, THOSE civil rights are different & NOT more important than the lives of "children" (blastocysts).

@NorWesternCrow @JewWhoHasItAll @SharynVane I also thought it was a J for their Jesus deity, it made so much sense in my head! And red stripes for his blood since the Christians seem to do a lot of worship around the circumstances of his fairly gory death? Is there any truth to that?

I don't quite know how to describe the emotion of reading about teenage babysitters getting paid three time (THREE. TIMES.) the median wage of professional child care educators.

@astrobiologiste I would say no - motor neurons are either neurons that synapse onto muscle fibers or synapse onto neurons that synapse onto muscle fibers, if we want to be very basic and concrete about it. MPS and basal ganglia circuits CAN do a lot of motor stuff but don’t HAVE to.
