Hot take... Bipolar Disorder (as well as its milder cousin Cyclothymia) is just a subtype of ADHD, not its own separate disease. It is essentially where a person with ADHD cycles through ADHD-I (Inattentive subtype) and ADHD-HI (Hyperactive/Impulsive subtype). Essentially the ADHD-I is mistaken for the depressive phase and ADHD-HI is mistaken for the manic phase.
The various evidence supporting this:
* There is medical evidence suggesting a close genetic overlap between the two diseases.
* There is a very strong comorbidity with 20% of people with ADHD also having some form of BD
* The symptoms of each type closely resemble the characteristics of each pole of BD, so they are easily mistaken for eachother.
Watching Kamala on 60 Minutes from earlier this evening. She is not capable of handling the interview and does not appear to be capable of being president. (On the other hand Trump, who we know was a terrible president, chickened out). It was the right thing to replace Biden, but Harris was the wrong replacement.
I was out and about yesterday walking through Philly and open carrying (picture for reference). For the first time i had to walk through about a dozen cops all standing around talking. I figured one of them might say something, but nope, not even a suspicious glare.
When it comes to guns I'm liking Philly and PA more every day since I became a licensed holder.
I havent not fact checked this. Apparently the attached letter was found in some rubble in Rasha and was written by a 10 year old boy who was found dead.
Translation:
“Please don’t cry for me, as it would make me sad. I hope my clothes can go to those in need, and my accessories to Rahaf, Lana, and Batool. The bead boxes should go to Batool. As for my monthly allowance of 50 shekels, I want half to go to Rahaf and the other half to Ahmad. I’d like Batool to have my toys. Lastly, please don’t shout at my brother Ahmad. Please follow these wishes.”
@bibliolater Former QOTO user @peterdrake made [a game](https://redslash12.itch.io/gerrymander) on this theme a while back. Not much replay value but a neat puzzle to solve once.
Israel apologists have been amazingly defensive about its latest acts of terrorism in Lebanon. It’s extremely important to them that everyone believe it’s awesome and good to turn electronic devices into thousands of bombs placed throughout unsuspecting civilian populations and then turning around in a day or two and bomb them without mercy.
#NewMexico from the article "In an effort to prevent migrant crossings from the southern border, Texas installed a razor wire along its border with New Mexico, not Mexico — upsetting the southwestern state’s governor."
Major update on Thursday with significant downtime, everyone please be aware! #QOTO
GREAT change is approaching. NIST will standardise prohibition of requirement of composing passwords from various character styles, and requirement for periodic password changes. These are harmful and obsolete rules. Now they will be treated as a cybersecurity weakness https://pages.nist.gov/800-63-4/sp800-63b.html
@freemo ahh i can almost taste it from those descriptions! don’t think i’ve seen coconut cream on sale around here; i’ll have to look around and give this a go. now that i think about it, i still have a big bag of hemp hearts from when i used to eat them a lot, but have fallen out of the habit! almond milk sounds like a good flavour combo to pair with the hearts as a starting base anyway.
I started maki g my own meal replacement drinks. It is designed tonperfectly give 1/3 of a days nutrients on a keto diet, almost no carbs, high fat, medium protein. My idea is i can just drink tbese 2 to 3 times a day and get everything i need.
I also left out almost all thr carba sonif i want some carbs i can supplement it with a small snack if i want.
It is suprisingly tasty too.
IMO high functioning (level 1) autism doesnt exist in much the same way that someone who is a bit sad from time to time doesnt have high-functioning depression. They represent perfectly healthy and normal people.
That said their expiernces of struggling to relate to people is very real. This isnt autism however, this is the rest of society (the majority) with crippling personality disorders instead.
The problem with psychology is it assums the majority represent normalcy.
Just a reminder, the exploding pagers is another in a **long** line of **terrorist** campaigns by Israel. It is counter to international law, and further highlights their complete disregard for the safety of innocent people.
