(((Cindy Weinstein)))<p>Put this logorrhea on billboards: “When Israel gave that up [the Gaza Strip], whoever was the prime minister at the time, who I know, who it was, but it was not exactly a very clever thing to do. Because that was given so that they finally have peace, but it’s actually made the situation worse. But we’ll see what happens. I think Iran is acting up. We have a lot of people acting, we have Venezuela acting up in a different way."</p><p><a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/columnist/2025/07/28/trump-rant-windmills-epstein-gaza-eu/85409338007/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">usatoday.com/story/opinion/col</span><span class="invisible">umnist/2025/07/28/trump-rant-windmills-epstein-gaza-eu/85409338007/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/Dementia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Dementia</span></a> <br><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/Neurology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Neurology</span></a></p>

Eva Winterschön<p>Today is a cozy blanket and Conan trilogy type of day. Woke up at 2:30, couldn't sleep till 5:45, haven't felt great all day. Most days last week were 4-6hrs/night. The often pattern, still no long term solution.</p><p>Possibly will watch Young Frankenstein afterwards, or some Studio Ghibli. It's not a Princess Bride kind of feeling sick, not a cold. Feels like neurotransmitter imbalance in the anterior frontal lobe, right at BA10 zone (throbbing, but not yet a migraine).</p><p>&gt; The frontal lobe contains most of the dopaminergic neurons in the cerebral cortex. The dopaminergic pathways are associated with reward, attention, short-term memory tasks, planning, and motivation. </p><p>I blame an interaction between Bromocriptine (dopamine agonist, tells the brain to create more dopamine) and Prazosin - a non-selective inverse agonist of the α1-adrenergic receptors (which I take for PTSD). Timing for those two are very important, as they are not synergistic. </p><p>Sleeping off and on has been very welcome. 💖</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/movies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>movies</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/conan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>conan</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/ptsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ptsd</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/saturday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>saturday</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/morning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>morning</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/insomnia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>insomnia</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/neurology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>neurology</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/dopamine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>dopamine</span></a></p>

jnpn<p>After the piano sessions and dual-n-back memory training I realized that my issues are not due to motor control mostly. I can type fast but my brain is still confused about spelling order and finger location relative to the keyboard. Dual-n-back mostly helps memory so I guess there's something clogging mine when i'm typing to the point i lose ability to reach for spelling or position.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/neurology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>neurology</span></a></p>

This confusion is widespread. I have recently caused an uproar on my timeline about this because most comments confound the two terms.</p><p>Empathy is generally described as the ability to take on another person's perspective, to understand, feel, and possibly share and respond to their experience. (Source: Wikipedia)</p><p>Compassion is a social [act] which motivates people to go out of their way to relieve the physical, mental, or emotional pains of others and themselves. Compassion is sensitivity to the emotional aspects of the suffering of others. When based on notions such as fairness, justice, and interdependence, it may be considered partially rational in nature. (Source: Wikipedia)</p><p>If I were to sum it up, I would say that empathy, inate in human nature (possibly due to physionomy - mirror brain cells), allows us to feel as if in the mind of another — it’s an imagining that arouses deep-seated feelings, especially of suffering as the Other. Compassion, on the other hand, is a social act which results from moral/ethical imperatives which enables us to live harmoniously with Others. I.e. Empathy is not an act, whereas compassion is. </p><p><a href="https://aus.social/tags/Empathy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Empathy</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Compassion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Compassion</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Morals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Morals</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Ethics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Ethics</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Neurology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Neurology</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/SocialNorms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SocialNorms</span></a></p>
