#ImpulseControl

@Nonilex

They say what the markets hate most of all is uncertainty. More than bad news, even.

And there is now an absolute idiot with a massive ego, a persecution complex, and zero impulse control behind the wheel of the USA's economy, and he's being "assisted" by a chaos monkey doing everything he can to screw up the domestic economy.

"Strap in, it's going to be a wild ride", etc, etc.

-1 shots are the new have/have-not divide. Society's that provide them to everyone outcompete those that don't. Same for employers to employees.

Imagine two employees. One can afford these medications, the other cannot. One has regulated impulses, higher energy, better focus, and lower healthcare costs. The other doesn't. In a few years, data shows the first is three times more likely to be promoted.

Scale that across society.

We expect by 2030:

- 80% coverage in the top income quintile

- 5% coverage in the bottom quintile

- An 8:1 access ratio between urban and rural areas

- A 35% productivity gap between users and non-users

This isn't just about economics anymore. It's about the society we're creating.

Knowing what is socially appropriate is a challenge. #braininjury #impulsecontrol

This is the kind of weird obsessive thing I can lose a hours to, with zero warning... I'm not one of those people who uses subtitles even though I can hear perfectly fine, but we usually have them on because my s/o likes them. Anyway, I was tweaking YouTube's subtitle settings, but for whatever reason decided they weren't quite granular enough, so I opened up Stylus (custom CSS extension) to get it just right, and well, uh... I got a little carried away.

Screenshot of a Cathode Ray Dude video entitled "Several Incredibly Smart TVs!" The subtitles are unusually fancy (not necessarily better, just fancier lol). I'm going to have trouble describing this, but: each line is contained in a translucent light-grey "pill" (corner radius equal to one-half line-height), and the two lines are contained in a darker translucent container, whose corner radius fits neatly around the inner containers' radii. Also changed the typeface to Poppins, a geometric sans serif. It's all very ridiculous, but I ams what I am.

Good friends offer you emotional support during your mental breakdowns. Great friends make you feel less alone during your manic episodes by impulsively sending nudes to people.

Yes, it is a sign of how twisted the marketplace is that a generation of (mainly) younger men were first exposed to "clean up your room" by .

It is not just his politics that are wonky - his judgement is not to be relied on either.
I saw him on Maher -"You'll die if you don't say what you're thinking" - to a US TV audience!
Let's all give up on right?. No, let's consider what we are about, who we are and who we are communicating with.

Throwback to that time 20yo me opted to buy six shades at once of Kat Von D liquid-to-matte transfer resistant lipstick instead of groceries

I looked sooo good microwaving my top ramen 😭

JP says that if you don't say what you're thinking you'll die!
Spose that goes for kicking baskets too.
This whole thing is really for the birds?
Oh, and next thing he said was to raise your children to be pleasant.
He's a psychology professor, so parents and carers, you can take it as gospel that you letting it all hang out will result in your children being pleasant.

[Note to the gullible: JP is, too often, a dangerous fool. Impulse control is healthy.)

@lauren

I find it best not to assume that most of Musk's purposeful actions are purposeful actions.

The man appears to be missing the sanity-check filter in between impulse-generation and action-execution.

Reading the instructions and suddenly my “Don’t be a moron, Kelli” is at war with my “Do as you’re told, Kelli!” 😳#impulsecontrol 🤣

It’s a good thing I have #ImpulseControl — my #cat is sleeping in the sink and I really want to turn it on 💦

People with impulse control issues should be held accountable for what they say, and I don't want to diminish that in any way.

Being said, it's interesting how neurotypicals will judge you for what you say, when you say literally everything that comes to mind. Then you find out the thoughts they aren't saying, are way worse than any of yours. It's like they have telepathy and you don't, and they use it as a cudgel to beat you down with.

... Among other benefits, I think I'm slowly improving my #focus, #planning abilities, and #impulsecontrol because of #meditation.

... I actually noticed a lot of benefits from meditating for 1 hour: I had better impulse control, I could focus better, and I could plan better. #planning #impulsecontrol #focus #meditationbenefits #meditation
