In fact, I'm a big fucking hypocrite because it bothers me to the point of monomania when people REPETITIVELY FIDGET.

Like girls with long hair who cannot stop "brushing" it with their fingers. I want to just SLAP their hands.

… And I'm sure that has NOTHING to do with the fact that I was regularly hauled out of church on Sunday mornings to be SPANKED for not "sitting still like a young lady." Nothing whatsoever. 🙄

Just got reminded of "Behave" by #RobertSapolsky, the book about the biological basis of human behavior. It really sounds fascinating, I need to read it finally. 🥰

I just came across this series of lectures on youtube, that I watched several years ago. Might be a good time to give those a re-watch. I can hightly recomend those, it has been one of the most interesting sereies of lectures I ever watched.

Just watching #RobertSapolsky talk about #fainting and ideas of why. He doesn't really cover fainting in nonhuman animals, but I've seen a chicken faint in traumatic circumstance and slowly recover afterwards. He suggests that it's especially adaptive for humans because we're bipedal so getting a bit of enforced horizontal time is likely to be good for preventing some kinds of blood loss ... well I suppose chickens are also bipedal, but...? 🤔

"Determined. The Science of Life Without Free Will" par Robert Sapolsky. Le libre arbitre n'existe pas selon le professeur de biologie, de neurologie et de neurochirurgie. J'adhère à sa pensée, mais j'ai beaucoup de mal avec la manière dont il développe ses théories dans ce livre (comme le précédent). Je m'y perds encore #robertsapolsky

I was going to use youtube videos to firstly introduce #RobertSapolsky then go to another which has a pinky-scarlet cover image (link below) on the topic of #Transgender neurobiology which has #Sapolsky relating the current understandings of neurobiology to how transgender folk function around #GenderIdentity. It's worth watching both for the science content and to see Robert's use of #Tone, #Attitude and #ChoiceOfPathTaken.

Питерсон это про индивидуальность, путь героя (по Ницше), или вот пример командной игры в которой игрок не желает «передавать пас неудачникам» (ещё как я понимаю, он позвал к себе на интервью Р.Сапольски, но говорил походу больше интервьюируемого)
Так же упоминает Достоевского, его гипотезе о сытости человека и вследствие чего отсутствии целей и мотивации для дальнейшего развития - тут же «эксперимент с крысами и кокаином» без выводов 😅
Первое впечатление что в разговоре будет батл интеллектуальных титанов (без сарказма), но Роберт, как я понял, не привык к подобным дискуссиям а он больше про монолог… К тому же они оба продукт (и скорей всего орудие) западной пропаганды. Неудивительно, что первый перетягиваемого нить повествования от идей сотрудничества и коллектива к идеям индивидуализации, а второй придёт к противоречиям самому себе, упоминая кучку крестьян, и какие то там «исследования про восточную Европу»…

How can #humans be so #compassionate and #altruistic -- and also so #brutal and #violent?

To understand why we do what we do, #neuroscientist #RobertSapolsky looks at extreme context, examining actions on timescales from seconds to millions of years before they occurred. In this fascinating talk, he shares his #cuttingedge research into the biology that drives our worst and best #behaviors.

Chego case de casualidade ao curso que Robert Sapolsky impartiu en Stanford co título "Human Behavioral Biology". O primeiro capítulo é divertidísimo, vou ollar o curso completo, e xa estou recopilando entrevistas e libros deste home.

@konsnylten Jag får medhåll från artikeln!

Väldigt spännande ämne. Jag har dessutom länge gillat och läst #RobertSapolsky (började med Mitt liv som babian, en bok som säkert faller @pergus i smaken), men det betyder inte att jag vill tro allt han skriver.
