  1. Hello Fediverse!

    :fediverse: :AsSlowAsPossible:

    We are a (very slow) movement of idle idealists, who want to save humanity from overperformance.

    Please always write our name in correct camel case.

    #AsSlowAsPossible

    Pressure to perform is the enemy of happiness and the good life for everybody.
    Sloth is a virtue.
    In this society however, being lazy is also a privilege.
    We demand a universal right to be lazy.
    Nobody's laziness should create more work for others though. Including machines and "AI".

    The aim is to consume less and live more.

  2. very simply put:

    #procrastination is when you put off tasks because your todo list overwhelms you.

    #avolition is when you can't even do basic everyday tasks like brushing your teeth or getting out of bed.

    #anhedonia is when you can't do any basic tasks and can't even distract yourself with time killers, because absolutely nothing can bring you any pleasure.

    #lazyness is what giant assholes call any of the above.

  3. CW: Depression

    I am depressed.
    By which I mean that I suffer from #dysthymia, which sometimes manifests with #anhedonia, and #today I'm in the grip of both of them, and it sucks.
    The world is fucked up, I have no interest in doing or eating anything, I'm feeling overwhelmed with both work and personal responsibilities, and doing anything other than playing games on my phone seems entirely pointless.
    It will pass—it always does—but right now, it sucks.

  4. Hi folks! Here is my #introductionpost. I am a #neuroscientist & #psychiatrist based in NYC. I started a lab at Columbia in 2021 focused on how #stress disrupts the #brain #circuits that govern social, cognitive & reward seeking #behavior. We use #electrophysiology & #optogenetics in freely moving mice to study how dynamic #neural activity, eg, #oscillations yield insight into #susceptibility #resilience #anhedonia & new treatments. I also post about #cooking. #twitterMigration #NeuroMastodons
