Simple neuroscience-based hack for anxiety:
🌿go & be in a place with plants & trees for 15 mins
🌳You'll inhale plant oils(phytoncides) from foliage
📉your stress hormone(cortisol) will drop significantly
Many of our brain pathways evolved to motivate us to forage for plants-they're still very active

I spent all day researching for an article, and now I know that 7 in 10 people wear glasses.
Whereas, 9 in 10 autistic women are sexually assaulted.
So an autistic woman is more likely to be raped than visit Specsavers!
The world is so broken.

Leaked memo from the Shopify CEO about AI contains a bit about not learning AI prompting leading to stagnation. This is a viewpoint of someone not steeped in humanities.
Honestly, USE of AI will LEAD to stagnation.

if you’re an artist who ever thought “what’s the point? The world is Hell and I should do something that matters instead”
even in an ICE detention center people will treat art as sacred, seek it out, and find joy and comfort in it. You aren’t making art, you’re making hope.
