"Creativity and cognitive flexibility are really powerful resilience factors against thinking in ideologically closed and authoritarian ways."
From a really fascinating interview with Leor Zmigrod, neuroscientist and author of 'The Ideological Brain'.

Here we go! From The Daily Show,
a look inside the "very, a, large brain" of Sir Donald J. #TrumpVirus

IMHO, a brilliant blend of #psychology & #humor here, #ContextAndPerspective and #psychopathology. All my interests.
Look at the Emperor's new #cognitive clothes! How can *anyone* not notice?
The angry spew of the Toddler King has impact. When The Boss spews his #WordSalad, people hurt.

#Zoomposium with Professor Dr. #Daniel #Dennett: “A #naturalistic #view on #consciousness”
The #philosophical #concept of supposed #naturalistic #monism is currently the basis of most approaches to elucidating the phenomenon of #consciousness in the research field of #cognitive #neuroscience, which attempt to #reduce #mental states to #physical #states.

Just found a small but weird #citationhole. Roth et al. (2023), an #annualreview article on #ethnicity, cited Brubaker et al. (2004) and Cornell & Hartmann (1998) for #cognitive definitions of ethnicity. The former is fine, but the latter only talks about such definitions by citing Schermerhorn (1970), giving a direct quote. Roth et al. in fact used that quote close to word for word but didn't use quotation marks or cite Schermerhorn. Roth et al. all specialize in ethnicity, so yeah, kinda weird

Some #hope for recovering #TrumpVIrus / #GQP victims and #media / #cult believers ?? Compassion and "welcome" to the survivors of 'programming'/'mind control' such as seen in cults, are notoriously difficult to bring back from their alternate world, where #truth is said to be #lies and #evil is accepted as good.
Let them realize at their own comfort speed that their Emperor is wearing no #cognitive or moral clothes. They've been duped, but are ok now.....

Suddenly everyone's focused on the antics and destruction of Lord Elon of #Muskville as he demolishes "America", specifically all that is good about #democracy and aspiration for a land of and for "We the People" of the non-billionaire variety. Us little ones, "those people" for whom laws apply. Now Sir #TrumpVirus and his merry cult of #GQP are giddily celebrating their power as the King of #WordSalad spews on and nobody notices the Emperor wearing no #cognitive clothing.

However, the focus of the interview will not only be on ethical questions concerning the current findings of #cognitive neuroscience, but we will also go into the possibilities of a "modern #neurophilosophy" or an "inductive #metaphysics" in the sense of #Schopenhauer.

POLLTIME!
I'm the past year, how many cars running a red light have you seen?
#Cognitive Decline #Covid #LongCovid #BrainFog
*Personally I had never witnessed this in my 40 some years of driving.
OH on another social media platform
Vendor at a market in NM gets run over by a car driven by a woman who claims she thought she was in "R" (tho drove through multiple tents before & after)
Cops don't take driver's info nor issue ticket nor statements of witnesses
Driver uninsured
Woman needs surgery & PT to be able to walk
Has a GoFundMe
Comments full of people saying she's just "playing victim"
W.T.H.F.??
I'm inclined to think #Cognitive decline from mass #Covid infections all around

These are very exciting findings from #brainhealth & #Alzheimers research!
#MustShare
"This research suggests that metabolic intervention – whether through dietary approaches like ketogenic diets or supplements—might be most effective when started in one’s 40s, well before #cognitive symptoms appear.. From a #publichealth standpoint, these findings could inform new screening guidelines and preventive approaches"
Emperor #TrumpVirus and his terrific #cognitive clothes...
"Terrific! Perfect, really"...
As #MAGAMike and cohorts giddily genuflect to their false god and don't smell, hear, or see anything abnormal.
