Did you know ancient bears would roam for hundreds of miles to feast on carrion?https://t.co/SkgGcyIWcuWhy didn't they get sick?https://t.co/9kf4vu8W8V

Did you know one of the fight scenes in Dune was based on a real martial art?Balintawak EskrimaFunny looking dance moves.https://t.co/6iUmhR0DEA

I wonder...https://t.co/Htw64JFAUn

The air temple island is also quite strikingI think that is a Yin Yang and a Ba gua on the ground.Its fascinating that air bending styles may be loosely modeled after Baguazhang - "Circle walking" https://t.co/YXIVZQdwg1I don't recognize the other styles. https://t.co/vsQmov8yA4

"Mimicry tasks, on the other hand, require children with autism to spontaneously copy the low-level, kinematic features of action."https://t.co/2qpgFFxtAmSo I just need practice then.

Would you believe that I know parkour?I used to climb things. I don't any more.That might change cuz I've got my memory back.Visual motor synesthesia, it's like a copy-ninja life hack.https://t.co/fJ4tb2FNQuhttps://t.co/bFXm9juDdB

Learning to hear the world around me like I am blind, so that I can fight without sight."The induced variety has been reported in experimental and post-surgical blindfolding, as well as intake of hallucinogenic or psychedelics."https://t.co/WUrb0dr8lg

I can recognize styles of martial art on sight now. It's like reading a language or hearing a notable riff in music.https://t.co/15t2jMnAOo

@NickADobos @tszzl I had been explicitly manipulating myelin via microglia ala M.S. /immune, which afaict about signal strength.Neurogenesis thing is new. I've been focusing on metabolic factors tied to mTOR thru gut / lipids, which underlies LSD/Psilosybin. Feels diff https://t.co/QzCNR5VIYs

I used to watch my best friend in highschool climb things. I always wanted to be able to play at his level.The thing I remember most was his ability to do 100 pull ups. I couldn't do one.I need to get stronger.https://t.co/00jpYoKHJG

With the right kind of shoe, I managed to climb lamp posts in college. At my fittest I was able to jump on top of the pillars in Randolph from stand.I wonder how much better I would have been had I known then what I know now. https://t.co/6FKoCtqJLM

@mwilcox @SethLargo I apparently have Hyperthymesia, I'm working on using it to learn to to do fighting like the autistic girl in the movie chocolate. I think its possible to tie visual to kinesthetic sense via synesthesia, and I've got the shape rotation. https://t.co/Vnxp429iPp


So, if you want to have kinesthestic sense in a way that allows you to recall complex movements...https://t.co/OsNCxDK3O2

I should be able to speak with my body.https://t.co/jx9my3lmQV

@clever_metaname I found a neat thing that happens to. If I narate what i'm doing it changes the way I experience it. I think a lot about how this was built with only 7 people: https://t.co/0QvVt0e9K8My kinesthetic sense doesn't seem well connected to language. Might be an autism symptom.

And recite entire sequences of things from memory.https://t.co/8JHzwUbWpD

@AliAbdaal @rudrakshborana @TaraSwart Have you tried fixing your hippocampus so you can be better at remembering words? “This is especially true when we need to remain flexible and switch between learned sequences, for example when typing on a computer keyboard or playing music with others.” https://t.co/FfL8MWnwPv

Become a speaker.https://t.co/7mIDw7u0Kohttps://t.co/5j8ckfIOw5 https://t.co/7mQUTatfQY


@andrewsyc @naval I have full access to all my memories. In fact I seemed to have reversed a life-long inability to remember names and faces. I also can remember entire songs and fixed my sense of time. I also have 5 sense synesthesia again like childhood https://t.co/9XSVeVvpzl

Remember."Yet, how the human brain processes language at the basic computational level of individual neurons has remained a challenge to understand"https://t.co/bzoUx4i438

"Movement" problems? => "Bowel" Issues. ;)https://t.co/CRIMHHmFkg

@pmarca @sbaroncohen Been operating under a model that the weird memory things that show up in autism are an interaction between the hippocampus and cerebellum, primarily impacting grid & place cells in the brain.Stuff about this keeps showing up in research:https://t.co/k9Gung3k9p

Wisdom from movement problems.https://t.co/zGpaLkAvEz

@crimkadid @SteveStuWill Sure wish I had a causative model for how lipid function and gut microbiota impacts TRP receptor expression to modulate blood flow in hippocampus to restore memory after entering hibernation (like seen in hibernating ground squirrels).Would be funny. https://t.co/4OJ6irNyAq

Like... What happens if your noise environment has 'mains hum'. Does that change how you hear and understand words? https://t.co/FnlS8B1rQCThe entire world is screaming at me.https://t.co/fSxaVbFQrv https://t.co/3rnLHDFt7L


@JimmyRis When the power goes out, I can sense all this sound stuff better. I think it's the mains hum.Lately I've been bothered a lot by hearing sound from capacitors within ultrasonic occupancy detectors. Lots of hum in CFLs are due to frequency transformations.https://t.co/iFepTjkCnG

Ties between sound perception and movement.How do I stop the screaming?https://t.co/nkAri62ucX

Have you ever tried to record your own eyes as a way to divine what your memory palace looks like?https://t.co/GsmGlbpTww

And what your brain signals look like?https://t.co/iy7e10WUwm

Why am I thinking about eyes, words, and movement?Cuz my dad had a stroke. I need to remember how I modeled my own brain so I can help regrow his brainstem.https://t.co/cdCREqU5Zb

@MMMalign Learning about clowns now."Pochinko taught clowning as a sort of "reverse therapy", in which instead of ridding oneself of anxieties, the clown performer leans into their own insecurities and foibles in order to package them as comedy." https://t.co/xLjkCHlw3G

heh, and there it is... the idea I was looking for. How to generate stemcells to regrow the spine. It was a clown all along.https://t.co/jXZR1tAKzj

What am I actually doing when I see these golden paths?https://t.co/sZK6k4gYNs

Maybe if I can catch that faster (the golden path / the misremembering shimmer) I can better account for it.Should I be making mistakes on purpose?https://t.co/l3qPrFr5Uq

Say someone had a poor vegan diet that didn't have enough Tuarine, and their generation of it via methionine & cysteine via "cysteinesulfinic acid decarboxylase" is impaired, and they started getting Taurine deficit associated heart failure and nerve problems, is it reversible?

There's more than one way to generate Taurine in the body. It seems B6 + methionine and cysteine can act as an alternate pathway.If this conversion is microbial in nature, it may explain why some people don't notice not having it in their diet.https://t.co/rSKrbQkNWB
