Thread for stuff. Things in the brain, stuck in the brain. How stuff works, what stuff does, things that things do. post words, letters, stuff, things.
Stuff as much stuff as your stuffing abilities permit.

am i doing it right
have a theory that people don't see the way things really are because that would be totally boring
also the frontal lobe(basically your entire perception of everything, your internal monologue. The rest orf your brain(i.e. the guys who are REALLY in charge)are busy thinking about your fucking bladder, the last meal you ate, how long ago it was, etc. and about what your doing. that's why tv just glues people on their ass.
people have egos because life without them is boring and pointless. everything that happens happens for no reason but what's happening right now is always what's most important.
God damn it feels good to get that out. People hate listening to this shit.

bad news guys, I'm being tortured by my mind and I don't know what to do :(
I have some kind of a autism thing. I have a couple mild ocd things, found this book at a thrift store, just saw the title and wow, holy shit, it's called brain lock, exactly what I'm going through. it's a lot like compulsive worrying about things.
The thing is, I can never really relax, I have paralyzing fears of absolutely nothing. I sometimes feel like everybody hates me, it sucks ass.

I also share some symptoms of Aspergers and shit, so my psychologist said. I felt a strong connection to the temple grand in movie, lol.
it's really fucking hard to put into words.
So... Addicts Lounge? K.
Seeing the way things are wouldnt be boring?

most people are too ignorant to care, but i love having discussions on this kinda shit, i ponder life alot,
There's a valid scientific explanation behind this, but I know I'm gonna get accused of being super-high when I say this: It is entirely possible that our universe is in fact a hologram. Ignoring for a moment that there are more than 3 dimensions (because talking about more than 3 is complicated without 6 pages of explanations and a science degree), in essence the theory goes that our 3D universe would be encoded fully on a 2D surface, and our 3D experience is basically the hologram effect, where the 2D information can take 3D projections.
The only problem comes from deciding where the "surface" is and what it encompasses. According to the holographic principle, everything inside my house could be described by information on the boundaries outside of it... except "my house" has no meaning in the universe. :v:
We live in a very strange world. I don't think we were meant to be able to comprehend it without drugs to expand our minds beyond the narrow blinders of the survival rat race.
The other night after an afternoon toke with my father he theorized:
"Maybe this life is to learn how to deal with hardship and succeed. Maybe when we die if you learned to deal with life you go to the next level of consciousness. If you commit suicide it means you gave up and you didn't learn your lesson, so you are reborn and given an opportunity to try again."
I don't think he meant people who kill themselves are cowards, they're just confused.
Maybe those who killed themselves did learn their lesson and that's why they did it? and vice versa
dun dun dun
but perhaps they didn't [I]truly[/I] learn it?
You know there are two if not three threads that function with this same purpose

I don't know much about neuroscience, but I know that there are not sections of our brain 'thinking' about the bladder. The bladder will have mechanisms to send signals to the brain to signal that it's important to piss. Drugs that affect this behaviour don't do it directly. MDMA screws up smooth muscle control so the bladder is physically unable to do the task, and drugs like Desmopresson will reduce waste going to the bladder by changing the mechanism which puts it there in the first place. It's the same way that we don't 'think' about breathing consciously, or unconsciously, we just do it as the brain stem, heart and lungs have incredibly simple systems to the determine what they do. Angiotensin (a hormone) will cause blood vessels to constrict, and is one of the causes of heart failure. If we inject a drug that 'fits' somewhere in the brain to cause more of this to be released, that's why we feel it.
Meh, maybe I'm being way too serious here. I'm just really high and fairly drunk.

Actually you have many tiny 'brains' all over your body, you've got a cluster of nerves around your bladder (and a better example your stomach, and another your spinal cord which has multiple nerve clusters) that actually do all of the rudimentary thinking such as "ey yo mang i gotta piss" or "eat something jackass" and they send those signals to Big Brain Boss which processes those signals in a way that turns into the sensation of having to piss or being hungry.
Your brain has a lot of 'shortcuts' like this, like when you put your hand on a hot stove and you automatically yank it away very quickly; that information used for the reaction that keeps you from getting burned hardly even hits your brain because the time from when you put your hand on the stove and the time you yank it away is actually too short for that signal to reach the brain in that amount of time, your hand sends a signal to the spinal cord which kind of acts like an automatic over-ride in that situation to cause it to yank away.
Those are not brains in any manner of the definition

I believe the correct term is ganglion

i'm no prof.
Funny I knowthisbecause I actually paid attention to my summer psych class lol.
College really is great. You can take classes on shit you really want to learn.
Also paying attention even in classes you don't like you learn shit that's cool and applicable anyways.
I have to say college is insanely better than other school. You actually want to go. Not to mention being able to simply walk out whenever and have a cigarette makes it greater.
Actually, there's a bundle of nerves and bits that controls your gut, and it's capable of operating independently of the brain. The only thing it does is process shit for eventual evacuation, but it's completely autonomous from the brain in our heads.

I remember taking a first-year anthropology class in my last year because I had spare random credits that I needed to make up. One day, the instructor asked us for an example of symbols in our (western) culture. Dead silence and wide eyes in the usual "we have no idea what you want" confusion period. He then held up his hand and gave everyone the finger. "What about this? Isn't this a symbol in our culture?"
Everyone but me was shocked. Welcome to uni, kids, we do things a bit different here. :v:
