Yo, Robot. ¿Tú?, tú no eres real; como las tetas de Sofía Vergara.
Don't like anything I post? Ignore it, like you do your corrupted conscience & neighbors.
2013 conspiracy theory video close up to a pixelated Obama eye, claiming he was a reptilian; suddenly (and none so strangely, once you comprehend how it all works), no such videos exist anymore for the new leaders of the world.
@SharonCoryell3@kvrjules@redhotnerd Wait, it occurred to me - isn't that what money laundering is all about? Forgive my ignorance, I'm not corrupted like that. Passing down all of your assets to someone else to hide from - I don't know, the IRS maybe - but ultimately, all those assets remain yours behind the scenes
@DarealSuru@AshkNaziGroyper@COdnarg@redhotnerd Don't try to reason with disingenuous individuals, they'll always find something stupider to stoop to & rock bottom is a deep unknown to those unfamiliar with it. There's your reasoning and it's sound & logical to many of us.
But if I walk late night I'm the creepy migrant invading their country. Things to reminisce about while taking that long walk. Oh well, more ample streets nowadays for the depressive maniac cruising them late night. Bet Dickens was the real Jack the Reaper, howbout that?
Charles Dickens fought his depression by walking through London at night. One October he set out at 2 in the morning and walked 30 miles, all the way to his country home in Kent. In 1860 he wrote about why it worked. It took psychology another 150 years to catch up.
Dickens called his bad spells "spectres." They came back every time he started a new novel and sometimes hung on for months. His mood would fall apart, his sleep would collapse, and the only thing that pulled him out was walking.
He explained his method in an essay called "Night Walks," published on July 21, 1860 in his weekly magazine All the Year Round. He had tried fighting his insomnia from bed and lost. So he changed the plan. The fix, he wrote, was "getting up directly after lying down, and going out, and coming home tired at sunrise." A worried mind cannot fix itself by worrying more in bed. You have to get up and move.
Most nights he walked 12 to 20 miles. A friend called it "violent walking." Dickens wrote that on these walks his wandering self had "many miles upon miles of streets in which it could, and did, have its own solitary way."
Today, walking is one of the most powerful tools doctors have against depression. In 2012 a team of researchers pulled together eight high-quality studies of walking as a depression treatment. The effect was as strong as the antidepressants doctors actually prescribe.
The biggest test came from Duke University. The SMILE study took 202 adults with serious depression and split them into four groups: supervised exercise, home exercise, the drug Zoloft, or a placebo pill. After 16 weeks, the people who exercised did just as well as the people on Zoloft. A 2024 review of 75 studies covering 8,636 patients confirmed it. Walking should be one of the first things doctors try.
The reason is the thing Dickens stumbled onto in the dark. Depression runs on rumination, the looping bad thoughts that grind people down during the worst stretches. In 2015 Stanford researchers scanned people's brains before and after a 90-minute walk in a quiet park. The walkers had less activity in a part of the brain called the subgenual prefrontal cortex. That spot, deep behind your forehead, is the brain's worry loop. After the walk, the worry loop got quieter. The walkers said they felt less stuck inside their own heads. The brain scans agreed.
A walking body shuts up a noisy mind. The street takes attention, the walking rhythm fills the head, and the dark spells lose their grip. Dickens called the streets his cure because they gave his brain somewhere else to be. The science 150 years later says he had it right. Depression hates a brain that is moving.
@JASHIE8133333@LASHYBILLS As a famous Tennessean - is that... is that the right way to say their demonym; why do I think just saying Tennis is so much better? As a famous wannabe Nike Tennis (Justin Timberlake) would say: "[They're] on a world tour..."
They're on a world tour, that gives them authority.😆
@elinestark Me duele decirlo, pero creo que el fue pionero de todo eso que describes. Gracias a él, a Elvis, a los Beatles, Rolling Stones, etc., tenemos a Bad Bunny hoy en día.
@Michael_Bonner@chickyxime We're putting heights on FICTIONAL characters now?! Bc why does it seem like Andrew Garfield's Spiderman is more of the preference for the people being surveyed here? Definitely more than Tom Holland's.What's worse the Greengoblin's a squatting mf & kicks Peter's ass here & there
@MarkeisMcLeod@chickyxime Because of my stature, I identify as 'ergonomic', this compared to taller individuals who tend to take so much space & have more erratic Goofy-like movements.
@itchycstellan @julianmiflaco They should actually be using 'García', look it up, it's the most common Hispanic surname in the whole wide world. But it might be - as Americans would say - to much on the those, so they go for Díaz instead.
@simonsbookclub @motsdemaelys Ha! "Christian puritanism". Then you have resentful readers who hate the so-called author and his followers who want them dead, (as it's written) for not following his teachings in the book.
@PostLibNat @motsdemaelys Some would say you're a gay fascist but still haven't figured it out. Introspection: Do you like getting spanked or spanking others, daddy?
@GannordMax@regularaugust McDonald's has killed people.
Do they behead the competition in front of a camera to make a statement? 🤫 It's a secret.
Does the boss who u work for & feeds u & your family gets his from laundering? Thusly the phrase money is evil; it's truly tainted, EVERYBODY benefits from it.
