I want people to displace the imaginary depictions of *revolutions* that they have come to create in their heads with the actual small revolutionary acts that happen daily. We might get closer to revolution that way.

Not all daydreaming is "maladaptive" daydreaming is not inherently bad. Using your imagination to tell yourself little stories is free fun and entertainment. Its not bad to tell yourself stories while you fall asleep. Dreaming and imagining are good things.

Ryan Marino… assistant professor at Case Western Reserve University’s School of Medicine, says, “Use of these central anticholinergics does cause amnesia (and impair memory formation) and so may certainly make people feel like they are developing dementia or having cognitive issues.”
Deliriants like Benadryl can bring on terrifying hallucinations in high doses. Some Gen Z-ers are taking at least a dozen pills at a time—and challenging others to do the same.

How do changes in context influence how we organize our memories in time?
Faster contextual changes are associated with faster drift in hippocampal activity and reduced temporal clustering in recalled memories.

Today marks the beginning of Men’s Mental Health Month.
Mental health amongst men is often seen as a taboo subject. It’s felt there’s a stigma around talking about men’s mental health, as if talking about it, or admitting to being upset or struggling with our mental health is a sign of weakness.

Wanna hear a scary story?
The first American vampire was Black.
Seriously.
78 years before Dracula appeared in American literature, there was "The Black Vampyre" by Uriah D'Arcy.
It was written in 1819 as an antislavery critique and the effect the Haitian Revolution had on the States
