rained out today, de escalating family echo chamber and moving to independent counsel or at least some initial consults with paralegal to determine what, who, and where, if it merits contingency. retention is my whole game now and just have to execute and get a lot of letters in the mail, see what happens, i have not signed shit so that helps my cause, potentially #don't take it the wrong way shit #under the ai god #dopamine deserts
I just realized that I forgot to share my latest haul of dopamine for beaders lol. The larger tubes are 11/0s, the smaller ones are 15/0s, and they're all Toho Japanese seed beads 🥰🤗!

For any of my local peeps who also bead, make sure to check out A Few Of My Favorite Beads in the far North Valley! They're the definition of a hole in the wall (lol), but they have a decent selection, and you can't beat the prices 😁. Plus, the staff are friendly and helpful, and it's a nice quiet location to just hang out and bead (if you're social like that lol). You can't go wrong!

Multitasking lowers actual productivity. Shifting between tasks requires an active release of dopamine in the brain to adapt. Stop juggling tasks to give your cognitive systems a break.

Gawd, I know why we can't have straight-up dopamine pills because they would pose a huge risk for addiction… and I'm the first in line to be susceptible… but SOME DAYS!!! 💀

Related: I saw a post the other day that made me think/realize… I experience autism more as a "social disability" in how people treat me vs. ADHD as an ""actual"" DISABILITY because it directly affects my own personal individual ability to DO THINGS. I feel like the general neurotypical perception is the opposite — that even high-masking / low-support-needs autism is a "problem" and ADHD is just "quirky." Sigh.

I need WD-40 for my brain.

Sounds like a fun hyperfocus to me, man!

Ride that wave of #dopamine!! XD

The article reports on a study examining how romantic partners are processed differently from close friends within the brain’s reward system, focusing on the nucleus accumbens and dopamine signaling. It finds that a partner’s neural signature is distinct early in a relationship but becomes less differentiated as the bond matures, suggesting a shift from passionate love to companionate love.

From a psychology perspective, the findings illuminate how neural representations of intimate bonds evolve over time and how social rewards drive partner-specific processing. The study also demonstrates how neural patterns differentiate partners from friends and how relationship duration can influence this distinction.
