I did a poll here for a week. 141 people responded. I was interested in #mastodon users' preferred categorization of the term "neurodiverse." The results generally confirmed my a priori predictions but had some surprises. Some takeaways for me, right now:

• Autism was in a tie for top position, unsurprising as, in my experience, autism was the first condition to be labeled "neurodiverse" or "neuroatypical", and is, I suspect, something of a prototype for the category.
• ADHD was tied (given the sample) with autism. I was mildly surprised. I think a few years ago this would not have been the case; ADHD awareness, activism, and acceptance have increased dramatically over the past few years.
• Schizophrenia, anxiety disorders, and #bipolar disorders were the next group. The inclusion of anxiety disorders surprised me; I suspected it would be tied with depression disorders.
• Personality disorders being endorsed at the same rate as depression and intellectual disability was a mild surprise.
• Psychopathy being tied with depression and intellectual disability was a pretty big surprise for me. This poll was largely about opinions and preferences, so stigma is (IMO) a big part of it. "Being a psychohpath" seems to be less stigmatized (in a specific way) than I thought... it's also possible the results would change if I'd used the word "psychopath" instead of "psychopathy."
• Intellectual disabiity (until pretty recently labeled "mental retardation" but, you know, the euphemism treadmill) was a wild card for me; I didn't know where it would end up. I would like to do a different survey sometime, with a different response format, so I could see the variability in responses. I suspect this condition (and a few others) would result in a lot of variability.
• Pedophilia was of particular interest to me. The results confirmed my strong a priori hypothesis, and this (plus psychopathy) was a major reason for wording the poll as I did, prompoting for preferences instead of a more objective assessment of the research-based fitness of each condition for the "neurodiverse" category.

More about #pedophilia: a nice, big mountain of research strongly suggests that it is a condition of altered brain development; in fact, it is probably a sexual orientation. A better survey than this simple poll might assess participants' understanding of pedophilia in addition to the question I did ask. I suspect many people confuse pedophilia with child molestation/abuse (nb: pedophilia is a pattern of attraction, not a set of behaviors, though many pedophiles have also abused children).

Both the left and right political meta-groups in the USA have latched onto "pedophile" as a label for child molestation--usually of post-pubescent children, where pedophilia is very specifically a pattern of attraction to prepubescent children. There was flirtation during Trump's first term with the more correct(ish) labels "hebephilia" and "ephebephilia", but I think the need for a stronger, more dehumanizing label won in the end, and "pedophile" packs a bigger cultural/emotional punch than "child molester."

Anyway, thanks to everyone who participated. This is fascinating enough for me that I might even do a real survey sometime. If I can get my dean to stop giving me extra classes for calling him out on his anti-labor nonsense.

Notes:

1. I phrased the question as *Which of the following conditions do you personally think should be included under the #neurodiversity umbrella? * instead of asking which conditions would be classified as neurodiverse, etc. for reasons noted above.
2. I chose "neurodiverse" instead of "neuroatypical", believing that the latter would produce more restricted categorization.
3. This is not (I hope) research according to federal definitions. It's a demonstration of a concept and I won't be trying to disseminate these results in scientific journals or at science conferences.

I'm done with New Year's Resolutions.
This year, I'm choosing intention.
It's about how I want to FEEL, not what I have to fix.

"Today, scholars and policymakers debate whether China will rival the United States as a superpower or is already in decline. The rise of India and the resurgence of Russia, meanwhile, have led many to proclaim the arrival of multipolarity. Widely divergent views about the balance of power are common because power, although foundational to international politics, remains an elusive concept.

To reckon with this challenge, I developed a methodology for comparing national power—one that uses common metrics (GDP, for instance, or military expenditure) in modern and historical data to determine a threshold for great-power status. My study found that arguing about whether China is catching up to the United States misses the point. Great powers have often been far weaker than the leading state—the most powerful country in the global system—but nevertheless engaged in dangerous security competitions. Moreover, my methodology revealed that China today is already more powerful than the Soviet Union was during the Cold War. Modern China, then, is not just a great power but a superpower.

The world, in short, is bipolar. Many middle powers are influential actors within their regions, but only the United States and China exceed the great-power threshold. This development explains rising tension in U.S.-Chinese relations and suggests that other countries will find it increasingly difficult to stay out of the crossfire of the rivalry. Bipolarity, for instance, helps explain the recent U.S. preoccupation with Latin America, where China has gained significant economic and political influence. As the dynamic between China and the United States grows only more competitive, Washington will find such encroachments intolerable—just as China may similarly refuse to accept U.S. political and military involvement in its own backyard."

The whispers in the distance bring an uneasiness that often is nothing more than the perpetual fear of the bottom falling out, when you exist at the bottom where do you go when that too falls apart, for far to many ignore the plight of poverty, for it is not a choice of person but circumstances that compound beyond relief, for when you trip and fall and find yourself disabled, your self value degrades before your eyes, then the ability to eat, clothe, bathe, and keep a roof over your head becomes a monumental task, no amount of bootstrapping yourself can life you out of the pit of despair, for if I eat this meal now, I can not eat tomorrow, if I bathe today, I cant bathe tomorrow, if I pay my rent today, I may not be able to eat and bathe tomorrow, sleep becomes a torturous cycle of nightmares and insomnia, your body declines each day without the basic nutrition to maintain, the stress rewires your brain it destroys your heart, the physical pain becomes the only constant in your existence, your pleas for help for dignity become a chant the world tunes out, for if today you get to eat, your not relived but fear when the next meal will be, to have the means to not only survive but to thrive are but a distant dream, to lift one out of the mire is to show compassion while offering dignity and a hope of what will be, I am still $3,610 short of fulling my goal to end the year, so that I can wrap up some things I really need to take care of, It would be wonderful if the global community of humans could help me raise this last little bit to finish this year with, as always your compassion and support are truly a lifeline for someone like me;

IT IS CHRISTMAS DAY PEOPLE, PLEASE HAVE COMPASSION FOR THOSE IN NEED!
Dear Santa,

It would be a #Christmas Miracle, and it could be a reality if #Santa could find a way to help this #disabled man existing in #poverty to raise all the money he needs, to buy property to build his forever home, and fill it with all he will ever need, to have security and stability to have a roof that will be forever mine, to have the space to create and thrive, to have the room to grow and fill my life, to have the hope to not only live but have the means to also help others, if at first the number seems big, when you realize the need and the dream it really is rather small, to have and never need to stand and not fall to my knees, for if by Grace this Christmas be a gift for me to ever be, $5million will set me free, it will be the gift of life to me, if only all the Elf's in Santa's realm could and would join with me, and make this Christmas Wish a reality;

Your Prompt And Compassionate Attention To This Matter, Will Be Greatly Appreciated.

I WISH YOU COULD UNDERSTAND MY URGENCY AND MY DESPERATION FOR
HELP, I NEED IT, I AM NOT BEGGING BECAUSE I ENJOY IT, I AM BEGGING FOR HELP BECAUSE I NEED IT TO LIVE!

The erroneous perpetuation of flaccid assumptions that those living with disabilities and in poverty either don't need external support or are un-worthy of any support, is a gross negligence of humanity.

Between my failing health and aging body, the basics of life become an unclaimable mountain which often keeps me drowning in the well of despair, your help would be most graciously received,

A Great Deal Of #MutualAid Is Needed, Please consider supporting this #disabled man living in #poverty, Another month is here which means now I really need to raise $1500, so I can take care of myself, Lack of sleep, body in constant pain, persistent hunger, disability and living in poverty, all these make life very much a difficult one, I am and have been desperately trying to raise money to not only live each day, but overcome some of the short comings that poverty and disability cause, I truly could use some compassionate people to come into my life and offer monthly support,

I don't feel well, I am in pain, I am exhausted, I am hungry, I don't feel well and I can not do anything about any of it and I just want to scream but that will cause my head to hurt 😥

CAN YOU UNDERSTAND DESPERATION AND URGENCY OF NEED?
I AM BEGGING FOR HELP!
When you are Disabled and Live in Poverty, No One Cares if you are Hypoglycemic, No cares if you suffer in constant pain and with vertigo, anxiety, in fact people dont care at all about you, they dont care you cant afford to clean yourself, they dont care you cant afford to feed yourself, they simply dont care about you at all, and you are left begging for help that never actually comes at all, I AM STARVING FOR A BETTER LIFE, BUT I CAN'T EVEN AFFORD THE BASICS OF THIS ONE LIVING IN POVERTY,

I AM BEGGING FOR HELP! I Am Both In A State Of Disrepair and Despair, it sure would be nice to be able to order some fresh fruits, some stuff for salads, and sandwiches, some cleaning supplies and enjoy some healthy food and a tidy home today, It would be really nice to be able to get the things I need right now, People I Am Begging For Help And Support, PLEASE HELP ME.

People really can not comprehend what life for me is like, for all the similarities between many of us, we all have a truly unique experience, Some of us live in full out hell, from the very first breath we take, our lives are not just trying to climb an un-climbable mountain, but having to do so under constant fire, the world it's self is a dark desolate wasteland that is incredibly unforgiving to life it's self, and when you introduce society that is indifferent to your personal trials, issues and barriers, life it's self becomes an overwhelming war that your faced to fight not just each day, but with every step and breath you take, become disabled and thrust into poverty, and you will soon find the majority of what is supposed to be a community of humanity simply does not exist, you fight to eat each day, you struggle to keep clean, if by chance you manage to keep a roof, your battle is even harder, because you simply can't manage the basics for the resources of day to day life many take for granted are not there, add constant pain, a failing and aging body, a mind that is so overwhelmed by time that often you struggle to see, far too long I have had to beg just to barely exist on any given day, for if only the world would hear what I have to say, and actually come together and help me raise my ultimate goal, within the hours of a single day, then not only could this broken man live, and care for himself, but very much within the realm of possibility I could create a life in where I could offer help and respite to those in need like me, but people you all see are far from loving and compassionate to me, no they rather I disappear deep within my despair, I am below the well of desperation, but I refuse to fight for my right and chance at life, and for those like me, I fight for you as well, within my last true ability in life I put into words the only fight I have, the only way to build beyond disparity, for those who wonder why you do not do more, this is all that is left within my soul to do, for if you cared you would pick my cross to bare and offer me some respite so I may still have more chance to fight;

Your Attentive And Compassionate Support Is Greatly Anticipated And Will Be Graciously Received, #disabled man existing in #poverty, far too many need to handle, overwhelmed by everything, #health not great, need to raise $1500 a month each and every month to live, please help currently $3,610 short and I am tired of going hungry and without the basics of life, please help asap, $5-10-15 It All Helps This #disabled Man Living In #poverty, via #cashapp at $woctxphotog or via #paypal at paypal.com/donate?campaign_id=…

Hi everyone, this is my new #introduction

I an Aiden, a #nonbinary individual from over in #ontario. I am #actuallyadhd, #bipolar, and dealing with #cptsd.

I am a student studying office administration online. I am about to be in my second semester.

I am coming here after years of being on Tumblr and Discord - simply need fresh air.

It is nice to meet you all.

For as the year draws to an end, with Christmas on the way, the lakes of mire and plight fill with the weight of need, for pleas for help go unheard, the drips of help evaporate before they can accumulate to truly alleviate the desperation, gratitude for the support that comes all, while anger for the unfilled needs both grow, to see the blessing and realize today you can eat, but tomorrow you will still be in need, is a bitter sweet micro victory, for all the pleas for help throughout the year, to know the eyes that simply turned blind, to see all those like me reaching and crying out so they to can eat, to have a plan to stand alone, to have a place of hope for all, to only find no real help at all, to cherish the compassion shared while seeing another year of despair, to give thanks and hope while dignity is rare, for all the sorrow struggles and suffering, may the world find heart and feed my new year with abundance more than I can bear, so upon my heart can give to all, if only one and all would feel my pain once and for all;

I am still $3,610 short of fulling my goal to end the year, so that I can wrap up some things I really need to take care of, anyways as always your compassion and support are truly a lifeline for someone like me;

Urgent need: $3,610, Monthly survival: $1,500, Long-term liberation: $25,000 to climb out. $5 million to build a forever home and sanctuary for others like me.[/b]

"It’s just depression." 😔

Have you ever heard those words? It can feel so invalidating because we know it is so much more than just a low mood.

In my latest post, I’m shining a light on the hidden side of #bipolar #depression—the physical symptoms. From the lead blanket of fatigue to brain fog and even physical body aches, your pain is real, and you aren't imagining it. 💙

Let’s validate what we go through so we can better understand how to heal. Read the full story…

#bipolar

Like the center of a storm, the brief moments of intermittent relief in a chaotic turbulent existence, are but a fleeting slap in the face of despair, for as the body continues to degrade, the mind rots from decades of fighting to maintain, the physical pain like an unbearable train while the mental drain spirals with the veracity of a hurricane, the drips of help evaporate before the bucket can fill, to speak out about this outrageous hell, to find the language the path of convenance, to paint the picture of this void trapped within a well so deep, for if the stars in the sky could truly light the night sky, then by why o why must this endurance of time must I alone bear, to free the mind to heal the body, to have a moment of respite in life, for if it was your dignity, you would stand upon the mountain and scream;

I am still $3,735 short of fulling my goal to end the year, I have some urgent needs I still would like to wrap up before the new year, your compassion and support are truly a lifeline for someone like me;
