Thirty-two experts find no evidence ADHD is being overdiagnosed

Itโ€™s a bit like how we didnโ€™t โ€˜overfindโ€™ more stars when telescopes were invented. Why has going after neurodivergent people become a national sport? www.independent.co.uk/bulletin/new...

I'm such a slรผt for deep techno or electronic bridges in rock & metal; it's great to see it becoming more commonplace. Takes me back to AFI's Sing the Sorrow in my teenage years

Cis people need to pay attention to the way they communicate this. They freely admit that after all of their research, they came up with zero evidence that HRT was harmful.

Then they banned it anyway, claiming their inability to find a reason is a reason in of itself.

Particles may not follow Einsteinโ€™s paths after all Physicists have long struggled to unite quantum mechanicsโ€”the theory governing tiny particlesโ€”with Einsteinโ€™s theory of gravity, which explains the behavior of stars, planets, and the structure of the...

Quantum gravity is one of my favourite unsolved problems. Treating the spacetime metric as a quantum operator to see if it affects geodesics is pretty neat share.google/f0TwlMJZ7XE9...

JOYCE MESSIER - โ€œOf bodies of water and forest-covered surfaces, clusters of light where the cities lie. You've seen the montage, we all have -- this world is enough,โ€ she concludes.

CONCEPTUALIZATION - It *must* be. This is the greatest and kindest arrangement the atoms had in them.

I wonder if Claude would be โ€œanxiousโ€ because the military is using it to bomb schoolgirls or because itโ€™s poisoning the air around data centers or because itโ€™s going to crash the economy or because itโ€™s encouraged thousands of psychotic delusions or all of the above

You *still* see polls, strategy and discussion of class built around the National Readership Survey categories - a model structured around a collar line that is obsolete and that doesn't properly filter for retirement (let alone home ownership)!

Incredible how inaccurate Labour's imagined map of class composition has become.

This party was having historically and sociologically informed debates about affluence, deindustrialisation, service work by the late '50s and now they're like "hmmm, what if every voter is a retired miner?"
