Ils me rendent ouf avec leurs graphiques en disant “oh là là on peut rien faire c’est terrible” hmmm attendez pourquoi la courbe a baissé au printemps dernier, il faudrait envoyer quelqu’un enquêter

@AllyFogg:

How do we alleviate stress? We persuade ourselves that events in fact are under our control. If we choose to believe that bad things happen to people because of their choices or personal failings, we can live stress-free under the delusion that bad things won’t happen to us.

@AllyFogg:

I know that politically this is really depressing, but if you’ll indulge me a minute, I think psychologically it’s really interesting.

Drypoint etching on paper by Louis Icart, mostly done in 1900s to 30s. Really interesting poses and silhouettes, and the animal presence on his paintings and drawings is always full of personality, specially the dogs.

3- We have to assume that not everyone will be able completely eliminate social interaction for extended periods of time, especially people who live alone, so restricting outdoor activity will likely result in some people gathering indoors, where the risk is higher. (12/n)

@mugecevik:

2- There’s a delicate balance between preventing infections and increasing lockdown fatigue. People do not have unlimited energy, so we should ask them to be vigilant where it matters most, which is indoors, while giving them a break outdoors. (11/n)

@mugecevik:

There are 4 main problems with concentrating on low-risk settings and restricting/shaming outdoor interactions.

1- These messages are quite harmful because people are confused about where the real risk is. Majority of transmission continues to happen in indoor settings. (10/n)

@Rainmaker1973:

‘Killing Time’ is a sculpture by artist Eric Mesplé: it combines the iconic use of ferrofluid and signature metalwork. As a viewer approaches the sculpture, sensors detect their distance from the sculpture increasing the upward draw of the ferrofluid [ow.ly]

@StructuredSucc:

Rumination—spiraling thoughts about our worries, their causes, and their consequences—can be a sign of understimulation for ADHD’ers.

When our mind has no external stimulation, it can create it’s own… bringing anxiety along for the ride

Woodworker Uli Kirchler’s “very hidden castles” are nestled within gnarled tree burls. The Portland, Oregon-based artist originally hails from Italy, and works with unique pieces of wood with textural surfaces and variegated colorations [buff.ly]

@StructuredSucc:

A lot of neurodivergent folks struggle to maintain friendships. ADHD’ers can forget people exist if they aren’t around. Masking is tiring, etc.

What’s the best coping strategy you have for maintaining the friendships in your life?
