#Eugenics right there! This subject has been bubbling under in our society for a while now. @MattHancock our communities need a clear message hear. Is this actually what you are planning?

[TheSilverNeuron @NeuronSilver]

This is where the moral bankruptcy of unchecked capitalism gets you. It's roundly appalling. People like this have no place in power. Maybe a place in hades...?

[TheSilverNeuron @NeuronSilver]

@SBowersMD @ProudResister Honestly it's reassuring that it bothers them. Hearing the things states here are planning ie preventing people with chronic illness from receiving lifesaving care is sickening. It should hurt. People with chronic illness or elder deserve better.

I find most concerning that in this outbreak we are losing our sense of humanity. The resource hoarding, refusal to take precautions, and now eugenicist care rationing plans are threatening social cohesion and justice. #carerationing #eugenics #COVID19

The brain is a fearsome thing.

Ow, my tired brain. And I still need to do the unit reading and quiz on glutamate and GABA. Oh, and sleep. What even is sleep?

Just finished (I think I'm finished?) a paper on #Ziconotide neurotoxin and its intrathecal use for severe chronic pain. Tbh I think #leconotide sounds better, although that's not FDA approved yet. #essays #psychopharmacology #tired #studentlife

Uhoh, its the old correlation=/=causation caveat. Attention, inaccurate headline.

According to new research, sleeping more than the recommended 6-8 hours a day can increase your risk of heart failure, stroke, or death by anywhere from 5% to 41%. https://t.co/hKbth3vAQF

“One thing I would change about science is how we teach science. We are moving in a direction of understanding that the way to teach science is to do science. But unfortunately, at least when I was coming through, we already knew the answer before we went in.

Did I talk about managing finals stress earlier? I'm editing a group essay. This is a nightmare. #collegefinals #Godhelpme #FinalsWeek2K18 #fatigue

We finished our meeting with the UNC Makerspace leaders, discussing how to optimize the training process, and now I have a little time to work on some pet projects on the 3d printers. #uncpsyc530 #makerspace #3Dprinting

Early diagnosis is crucial to the management of autism. Early recognition of symptoms and appropriately tailored early interventions help improve quality of life for affected individuals. https://t.co/DqTuO5W17W #uncpsyc530 #autismspectrumdisorder

[TheSilverNeuron @NeuronSilver]

Today is the final phase of our research project! #uncpsyc530 will be explaining what we did to the wonderful staff at Makerspace and perhaps even discussing the significance of our findings.

[TheSilverNeuron @NeuronSilver]

How are neurons like salty bananas, you ask. Well, both have Na+ on the outside, and K- on the inside. All's good fun in studying for my #biopsychology exam tomorrow. #mnemonics #uncpsyc530

[TheSilverNeuron @NeuronSilver]

@DylanH_UNC @mendeley_com I need to try using it. It seems like a great idea.

@Scientists_ofNC profiling Deb Cunningham (and my sweet Sally, one of many service dogs Deb has placed.) Cheers to the lifesaving work and the incredible dog-human bond! #uncpsyc530

[Scientists of NC @Scientists_ofNC]

“My organization, Eyes Ears Nose & Paws, works to create a more diverse community by training #servicedogs to help people w/ a variety of disabilities. The service dogs help those folks be more independent & that independence leads them to be more active in their communities. 1/n

When you actually sit down& explain #socialpsychology Just World Theory (lay theory of morality or cognitive distortion depending on your psyc field) to a friend, everything suddenly looks grim. I guess I'll get back to reading Love 2.0. At least that's happier! #uncpsyc530

[TheSilverNeuron @NeuronSilver]

Here's to a scientific milestone! The thirteenth child born from #uterinetransplants shows they are possible, although highly experimental. with Potential future applications include: uterine infertility and gender affirming surgeries. #uncpsyc530 https://t.co/DqTuO5W17W

[TheSilverNeuron @NeuronSilver]

In addition to #uncpsyc530, I've been taking sociology of religion, and we are writing papers based on field notes of our class took, searching via qualitative codes and descriptors. It was very cool to see the overlap in #QualitativeResearch between psychology and sociology.
