below makes me think...we should have neuroscience as part of mandatory high school curriculum.
how much would understanding a bit about the how the brain works help avoid unnecessary suffering...or at least help understand that suffering, which could lead to recovery.
that and budgeting.
Research has indicated that when any of us read or hear something that strongly triggers our emotions - the amygdala that governs that - actually gets an endorphin rush from responding to that stimuli. Whether its valid, right or wrong is of no consequence. The resulting endorphins act as an addiction in acting on emotions.
Never more so than the sphere of online and social networking.
It's no fun when one side stops playing the game.
must...not....respond....
seriously, addiction, neuroplasticity working against oneself

Iâm on an iPad and searched everything on the new site in the edit profile only Location and Profession exist. I think itâs an omission by mistake.

I have historically voted in 3 to 5 minutes. A lot of people in our town, including my spouse, were on the "vote early" bandwagon. I assumed, since everyone else was voting early and waiting in lines, I'll go on election day.
I won't bore you with all of the "improvements", but it took me an hour and 50 minutes to vote.
I guess I forgot that I need the /s sarcasm tag for you.
Yes, please bring on all the evidence. You've been following it daily now for 4 years, you must have amassed a great pile that eluded all of the highly paid lawyers and observers and people that were in control of the government when it happened.
Show me on the doll where the liberals hurt you. I've got a pretty pony band-aid we can put on it to make you feel better until your guy can get back behind the wheel.
This has cropped up in my thinking a few times last night and this morning.....I know I can be very abrasive.
When I was in the corporate world it was a constant refrain of those around me....fighting is basically all I know.
It's how I have survived.
I apologise, mate...unreservedly.....I know I can be an abrasive angry prick sometimes, often when there is no need for it.
So, in the interest of...better relations... in this mad, mad world...I apologise.
To all of you.
I know the bulk of you are upset and bewildered and probably hurting.
There is no need for me to keep on stabbing away.
I need neither approval nor to be right, and neither do any of you.
That fucking incompetent commie is next on the list. The Libs in Canada are heading towards the worst beating they've suffered in decades.
Yeah, yeah. And soon enough your jackbooted replacement will also be thrown on the heap. Much like our vacillations here. The one in power will continue to claim all the good and disavow all the bad. And the rich will get richer and the world will go around.
No need. I'm going to work a couple hours to round out my week. Then I'll head to the beach with my dogs. It's toasty today (85), so I'll probably take a dip in the pool later. I'm sad about the outcome, and mildly annoyed by your little gadfly group, but I'm all good and it's my little effort to remind others that even in victory, your guy barely made 50% and only because he was against a horrible candidate that was hamstrung by some terrible decision making. It took him 3 tries to get a majority of the vote.
Now go labor some more for your left wing overloards, they understand the tea sipping bit better than you.
Good on you.....be grateful for what is. Have a great weekend....simple pleasures are always the very best.

so trump is also down in votes, even though there was so much enthusiasm to return him to the post. So what happened? Did they game the system just enough to win, but not make it look obvious?
see how stupid that sounds.
so what exactly do you think happened in 2020? Where is the evidence? Or is it just that the system can only be gamed by the party out of power? I liked you better when you where just posting propaganda videos... I liked you best when you were absent.
For four years there has been this constant 'where is the evidence?' or 'there is no evidence!'....yet no judge has actually allowed anyone to present any evidence in any of the myriad court cases that have been brought in this regard, as far as I am aware.
I have been following this issue closely every day for the past four years, and have heard plenty of evidence that supports the notion that 2020 was full of skullduggery and downright cheating.
In fact, there is a pretty well known slogan that has been slung around in the past four years...'if the Dems can't cheat, they can't win!'
So....there we go. It seems to be true.
But try to answer the question.....where are the 12 million votes?
Please explain?
As I said four years ago, you are so fucked now.
Welcome to democracy....in fact, here, have a democracy suppository.
