  • All “abnormal psychology” has differing physiological differences when compared to a “neurotypical” brain. Those definitions are super shakey though. Neurotypical, as you say, is a super fuzzy definition and has really changed drastically in modern history.

    And there are a shitload of people “a little bit schizophrenic”. You wouldn’t be able to tell though because the intensity, frequency, or persistence is not severe enough to affect thier life in an overwhelming manor. They have jobs, relationships, and can function in society.

    Some people are a little bit “whatever” with different mental disorders. Believing mental health issues are binary, either they have a “disorder” or are healthy is no longer part of modern abnormal phycology. They are now thought of as spectrums where people can fall onto that spectrum in very very different severities. That is why people use the word spectrum.

    That’s actually very false, and it is important for people to learn about their mental well-being.

    On the spectrum of mental health where the perfectly healthy are on the very left, and the perfectly unhealthy are on the very right. The majority of people lie somewhere in the middle.

    Mental disorders are not binary, like being pregnant or not being pregnant. There is a sliding scale. How much that disorder affects certain aspects of your life is how we measure the severity of that disorder.


  • Intresting paper. It is not the conclusive evidence that you think it is. It’s ok, reading science is hard.

    Paper concluded that the vegan diet did not seem to have adverse effects, but they had a very small sample size and the expiriment went on for a very short duration.

    And then they site scientific papers that disagree with their findings. So there definitely is science out there that disagrees with the vegan diet being ok.










  • This is evaprotive cooling tech. These things have existed for 1000s of years. They are called zeer pots.

    The water evaporates through the outter clay pot and the latent heat of vaporization causes the water to cool drastically. Same exact principle as an air-conditioning unit, but it’s not a closed system, so you have to add more water. And waters energy from vaporization isn’t as good as a refrigerant. And it’ll only work well in a dry environment.
