  • Labeling anything a disorder only means that whatever behavior is causing you distress and harm in a meaningful way.

    On the other hand, recognizing that certain tendencies can be detrimental to both yourself and those around you can be key to actually getting help changing or managing them.

    I do agree that we should be careful with how we label it, though. There is a difference between “this is hurting you” and “something’s wrong with you”.

    Sure, I might have worded myself a bit clumsily. I meant using them in a conversational way. They’re trying to say “less than 500 steps,” which is very different from “500 is larger than steps per day” in tone.

    My point was just that in normal speech and writing you would say “less than 500”, which would be written “< 500” if you insisted on using the mathematical sign.



  • Is it just me or does neither the prompt nor the image description actually describe this image? The human figure is far away from the pedestal and not kneeling, there is no cave entrance, the cave does not look circular, the wolf is neither a wolf (apart from the head) nor above, there are no beetle shells, this does not look like an oil painting…

    Damn… yeah those samples suggest ~6–8mg of plastic per gram of sample tissue in the brains from 2024 😟 That would be like 10 grams in an entire adult brain if the distribution is even.

    “Thankfully” it looks like the brain has the highest concentration of all studied organs 🙃
