There seems to be a common medical definition for the word Pica

From: https://kidshealth.org/en/parents/pica.html#:~:text=What%20I....

>What Is Pica? Pica is an eating disorder in which a person eats things not usually considered food. Young kids often put non-food items (like grass or toys) in their mouths because they're curious about the world around them. But kids with pica (PIE-kuh) go beyond that.

Great concept. Although I wonder how much someone being on the phone actually deters rapists/ muggers.

Genuine question: why should I care about my data being encrypted and private?

I hope you also contemplate how many innocent people (usually undocumented migrant workers) have been scapegoated in drug trials and executed…

Is hyperphantasia the same as maladaptive daydreaming or does the former enable the latter?

I’m lacking a lot of context here, why are Altman and his crew (not sure who they are either) creeps?

Sorry for noob question but what does NAT and NAT’d mean in this context?

99catmaster — Mon, 05 Feb 2024 14:16:35 +0000

Set up a routine. Mine consists of taking a shower immediately before going to bed, usually soon after eating dinner which happens after I exercise. Before I head into the shower, I put my devices away to charge and after I’m done, head straight to bed. Crucially I used to spend an hour ish after the shower procrastinating on my phone or whatever, but I’ve since replaced it with a routine. Now when I leave the shower my eyelids feel heavy
