Yesterday, 2 schoolchildren were shot and the shooter died. Kids suffer so much violence. And it's dismissed by the adults who could change that.

Karl Friston in #mlst Philosophy done right! So many references, obviously @drmichaellevin.bsky.social mentioned #academicsky #philosophy #neuroscience #strangeloop youtu.be/PNYWi996Beg

reasonable work & school accommodations are suicide prevention

"Hostility, exclusion and academic bullying should be formally recognised as research integrity issues because they directly impact who gets to succeed and whose voices are silenced." By @maddipow.bsky.social

Here are some of the things @prismreports.org does to verify whether a pitch or piece is AI-generated (I hope this is helpful for others): 1. AI pieces and pitches all kind of look the same, and they're structured the same: - intro - Subhead and body of text repeated 4 or 5 times

It's time to go in HARD for THE TOXIC AVENGER – only in theaters NOW! Show the f*ck up and get tickets NOW. #ImWithToxie #TheToxicAvenger #ShowTheFckUp #TheHeroWeNeedNow

The only legitimate reason to still be on Twitter/X is if you are doing research on misinformation and extremism.

The kicker, of course, being that every teacher teaches in a "neurodiverse classroom".

It's a shame it took me almost a month to find out Margaret Boden died. And it's a shame it took most media a month to write about one of the greatest philosophers of the last century. #philosophy #philsci #ai #cogsci www.nytimes.com/2025/08/14/s...

A new study finds that chimpanzee babies learn vocal and visual communication patterns from their mothers. The findings may shed light on the way human babies learn from those close to them.

“Our results are consistent with the notion that individuals with ASD may have… 🌟 baseline retinal overactivity 🌟 to repetitive single light flashes and that the GABAergic system modulates this retinal response differently in autistic and nonautistic individuals.” …cool cool cool.

The sound of cells in the brain just doesn’t get old! It’s how I fell in love with #neuroscience 🧠🧪👩🏻‍🔬 Celebrating small victories - first #neuropixels recordings in the lab. Congrats to the team that made it happen!

Can a single brain cell be surprised? www.nature.com/articles/s41... Yes, but nothing shocks married neurons.

“I’ll go for a ‘maybe?’ and ‘or something’, after a pause,” Mulligan explains. “Even though I come out with random and weirdly particular facts throughout the duration of the film, it surely signals I have a merely healthy interest in the subject. They will never know.”

Of course the Catholich Church should be mocked. It is one of the most powerful institutions in the world. On top of that, it is misongynist (like Trump), anti-abortion (like Trump), making people have children they cannot afford (supported by Trump), and has a long list of corruption (like Trump).

two people with compatible neurotypes may RAPIDLY form a strong bond When meeting someone you IMMEDIATELY know you’ll be BFFs the insta-friendships where your relationship is exceptionally close, quirky, and highly specific that one who just “gets” you right away & ends up being your ride or die

So, this wasn't an April Fools...

just because they’re denying plans to create a national autism registry NOW that the backlash reached their awareness does NOT mean I’ve changed my stance on literally anything kthnxbye I get even the faintest whisper of “that’s dramatic” or a whiff of “it’s hopeless” & I’ll hurl you out a window

Super cool study from @tjryan.bsky.social and colleagues! (See what I did there...?)

JOIN THE AUTISM COMMUNITY ON DISCORD discord.gg/Zaghvthx #autism #AutRes #actuallyautistic

Big Tech billionaires love to make each other richer. Jeff Bezos's paper, The Washington Post, is now working with OpenAI to provide journalists’ content to its learning model, “to make high-quality news more accessible in ChatGPT," while claiming to be “LLM-agnostic.”

No one else will ever be able to reliably and consistently know what you need at all times, because they only have the outward markers of your needs, which are limited and can be misleading. #ActuallyAutistic #Autistic #AuDHD #healthycommunication

If taking psychometric screening test & stuck between two answers, unable to make a decision, we may feel stuck at an impasse If they mean THIS hyperspecific thing then my answer is THIS If they mean THAT modestly different circumstances then my answer is THAT More context or thou shalt not pass

A large study in Sweden found levels of autism *symptoms* were constant over time, even as autism *diagnoses* increased (implying broadening diagnostic criteria rather than real underlying increase) www.bmj.com/content/350/...

This Autistic Acceptance Month, can you accept that studies continue to suggest shocking rates of suicidal ideation and deaths by suicide across all populations of Autistic people? Did I raise your "awareness"? #AutRes

Between 11 and 66% of autistic adults think about suicide during their lifetime, and up to 35% plan or attempt it (2020). "Obviously, I'm wondering now, if part of that is being driven by the fact that nobody's understanding them, empathizing with them, you know, feeling what they're feeling." 😔
