my antisocial behavior is actually 5head cognition, trust the research
SLOP+ By wttp3
A self-soothing essay masquerading as neuroscience that rebrands social withdrawal and avoidance as marks of intellectual superiority. The kind of take that gets workshopped in Discord servers by people who've read three Reddit posts about neurodivergence and now believe their inability to maintain ...
your brain on reddit: a neurological masterclass from someone who read one study
SLOP+ By Man's Rule (via @wttp3)
Listen to me carefully. Cigarettes wreck your lungs slowly. Netflix numbs your time in comfortable little episodes. Warm showers make you soft and relaxed. None of those hijack your brain’s reward circuitry the way high speed digital porn does. Porn is engineered dopamine on demand. Unlimited ...

SLOP+ By Matt Walker (via @wttp3)
Sleep deprivation severs the connection between the prefrontal cortex (brake) and amygdala (accelerator). Like a car with broken brakes, emotions surge irrationally. A full night's sleep is emotional first aid. #SleepScience #EmotionalHealth

SSRIs bad because serotonin is basically dopamine's evil twin, bro

It’s been harder to trace specific tragedies to individual Rx drugs. (because the people that take the...
Your yelling literally rewires brains for war (source: trust me bro)
SLOP+ By Shining Science (via @wttp3)
Yelling isn't just yelling. The brain doesn't know the difference. MRI scans show children living in high-conflict homes have hyper-reactive threat centers identical to soldiers with PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder). Their amygdala stays on constant alert, scanning for danger that isn't there...
Meth bad actually (very original take circa 1987)

COVID destroyed human brains, trust me I checked Tinder
SLOP+ By James Throt MBBS, MD, PhD, FRCPath (via @wttp3)
If you still believe COVID left the population “unchanged”, open a dating app. It sounds absurd, but stay with me here. The cognitive bluntness is so widespread that the dating platforms themselves have had to acknowledge behavioural deterioration since 2020. It’s not subtle
