The other 3% going to Romania, who, while lacking in quantity, did give us such delights as Planet Earth (other countries needed a place to stay), Animal Rights (giving gypsies EU passports), Fire (initially a backyard grill, coincidentally started the Big Bang and linear time).
Opening up a customer’s iPhone that they bought used and seeing this plugged into the battery (we have an entire bucket filled with these because of dipshit human beings scamming people)
Female gamers: your menstrual cycle is effecting your cognitive performance, but not during the phase you might assume.
This study found while 55% of women felt mentally worse during menstruation, but their performance data showed no objective drop then.
Cognitive performance (reaction time and errors) actually dipped mid-luteal phase, when progesterone peaks and cortical excitability drops.
Here's what I recommend to my clients:
→ Drink excess water during your period -- blood is 80% water, you're actively bleeding, and dehydration nukes cognition...
→ Supplement with creatine + electrolytes -- these can help improve blood flow & reduce GI symptoms via their osmotic effects
→ Consider increasing stimulant usage during mid-luteal phase -- the strategy here is to elevate cortisol via CNS stimulation in an effort to offset the phase-related deficit.
Important note: This study was done over the course of one monthly cycle. As a result, I do believe there needs to be more longitudinal research conducted to better understand how hormone severity and individual variability impacts cognitive performance.
DID YOU KNOW? Albanian migration has actually improved British organised crime standards because Albanians are more competent than other groups. Their monopoly on the drug trade has reduced petty diaspora gang fighting and increased quality of produce. Cocaine is purer than ever
