South Afrikaner Elon Musk, reputedly the richest man in the world (founder of PayPal, head of Tesla, SpaceX, Twitter, Boring, Neuralink Corporation, and DOGE, future king of Mars), has fired himself to save the government money -- and Tesla share's plummeting value. He is getting back to work, except he's always working. How? Drugs -- Adderall (speed), acid (LSD), Special K (ketamine), Molly (MDMA, Ecstasy), magic mushrooms (psilocybin), weed (THC), and whatever else he carries around in a special box for emergency use. Every day is an emergency when one is jumping around, kissing up to Trump, slashing jobs, and trying to salvage his reputation on the world stage to keep working for the government.
(Jimmy Kimmel Live) May 29, 2025: Elon Musk’s time as a Special Government Employee for DOGE (Dept. of Gov't Efficiency) has come to end, the court of Int'l Trade ruled unanimously that Trump did not have the authority to implement the "big, beautiful tariffs" he slapped on everyone, Trump blew up at a reporter for asking about his new nickname “TACO” that’s been making the rounds on Wall Street, which stands for “Trump Always Chickening Out.”
He is now reportedly one step closer to settling the ridiculous lawsuit he filed against 60 minutes, he now says he plans to give Russia's Vlad Putin “two weeks” to prove they are serious about a peace deal with Ukraine [otherwise he's going to let them go Israel on Zelensky's butt], America’s Mayor Rudy Giuliani wore a crazy outfit, FBI Director Kash "Cross Eyed" Patel sat for an interview with Fox News (swearing pedophile Jeff Epstein was not murdered), RFK Jr. made an announcement about COVID vaccines, and Cousin Micki teaches us where babies come from.

SPRAVATO® (esketamine) approved in the US as the first and only monotherapy for adults with treatment-resistant depression
Special K (ketamine) is called a psychedelic.
[Matthew "Chandler" Perry would love it, wouldn't he?] Following U.S. FDA Priority Review, approval is based on data demonstrating SPRAVATO® alone met its primary endpoint at 4 weeks and led to rapid and superior improvement in depressive symptoms compared to placebo as early as 24 hours [1].
SPRAVATO® alone showed a rapid and superior improvement vs. placebo in the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score, with numerical improvements across all 10 MADRS items seen at day 28 in a post-hoc analysis [2].
Monotherapy data adds to well-established clinical efficacy and real-world safety profile
TITUSVILLE, New Jersey, Jan. 21, 2025 – Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) announced today the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of a supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) for SPRAVATO® (esketamine) CIII nasal spray, making this innovative treatment the first and only monotherapy for adults living with major depressive disorder (MDD) who have had an inadequate response to at least two oral antidepressants.
MDD is one of the most common psychiatric disorders, with an estimated 21 million adults in the U.S. living with the disease. About one-third of adults will not respond to oral antidepressants alone, which has a significant negative impact on the quality of life of those affected. MDD has a high economic burden, with nearly half of it attributable to treatment-resistant depression (TRD) [3,4,5]. More

"Autism Imposter Syndrome" - The smartest have it, and how to stop it
(Neurodivergent Doctor) Why do the smartest people get imposter syndrome? What is "transient sensory sensitivity"? Was there really room for Leo on Rose's floating door over the Atlantic from the film Titanic? These and other topics are discussed as well as what to do about imposter syndrome.

Autism: The new view. The world is disordered
(Neurodivergent Doctor) VANCOUVER Hello, Neurodivergent Nation! It's always been about the bad, the way "autistic" people have a hard time in life. Is that the truth, or have we been looking at it all wrong?
Yes, many autistic people have a very difficult time. And it has caused trauma and so much heartache for them and often their families, too. But let's take a closer look at why there is so much difficulty.
Let's look more closely at the disordered world autistic people are forced to live in. Like so many other people who are differently abled on this planet, it is not set up to accommodate, accept, or even acknowledge differences.
[EDITORIAL NOTE: It may be taken as making autism look like a positive label. Or it may point the finger at us, saying that although autism is certainly bad and not something we would want to have, the world we live in sucks -- and we have ceased to notice. But autistic children and young adults do notice and say so; therefore, we don't like them and blame them and their illness or try, because of cognitive dissonance and guilt at living in a toxic polluted environment that surely cannot be helping, to put all the blame on sensitive individuals harmed by the toxicity far more than the rest of us.]

(from previous upload on Imposter Syndrome that was deleted it replaced with this better version)
(buttercxp draws) This video was fantastic. I was late diagnosed 2 years ago after a mental breakdown. I’ve felt imposter syndrome several times whilst coming to terms with my diagnosis. Your words really hit home with me. Much appreciated 💕
(Judi Marr) Thank you for this. I’ll probably still keep taking all the tests every couple of weeks until my neuropsych testing in June just to make sure, but it’s good to know why I feel this way and I’m not alone.
(Wynne Whitten-Holmes) Oh, this was such a balm to my autistic soul. Thank you. I'm saving it for later. ✨
(buttercxp draws) Great job with the script and editing on this one. Made me laugh and made me cry. I’ll be watching this again next time I think I’m an imposter ✌️💕
(rahxrahster) This is the one! I have an upcoming assessment and this video was so helpful. Thank you!
(Loowe) Thank u so much. Can I ask u to talk about the PDA Type of autism? It really gives me more imposter Syndrome since my experience is in some way very different than other more high-regulating autistic people. Thank u for ur work so much!!! 🌸🌸🌸
(skiz) The best defense against impostor syndrome is paying the electricity bill to keep your rare model train collection running on time throughout your house.

Inside the strange, psychic world of indigo children
(VICE) The Chosen Ones S1 E4
Gavin Haynes has come from England to America to investigate the secret world of indigo children, a select group of people who believe they were born with "indigo" auras and possess special and supernatural traits and abilities.
Though many of these children have been diagnosed with ADD or ADHD by some healthcare professionals, indigo parents maintain that their children do not have these conditions but are instead running on a different plane unknown to regular people.
Critics say these children are not getting proper mental healthcare.
On his journey for answers, Haynes has his aura photo taken, undergoes a holistic dentistry examination by a mother/daughter Indigo pair, and attends a concert for Indigo rap duo The Underachievers, who are preaching Indigoism as a way of life.
(Dr. Ramani) August 31, 2022. First of all, what spiritual bypassing? Second, what is a narcissist? It's not just the self-absorbed jerks who love themselves but part of a spectrum of narcissistic personality disorder, which at least 1% of the population suffers from. The number of people with narcissistic tendencies is higher and growing, but no percentage has yet been given. With the rise of TikTok, social media, and online therapy, lots of people are realizing they're behaving in this dysfunctional way. It's a shocker. Get your head out of the clouds or out of your butt, and admit it. They're not likely to admit it. But early childhood traumas are insidious and have a real impact; they are the gift that keeps on giving. Watch out for being a narcissist or associating with one. They're not just romantic partners anymore but may be parents, friends, or bosses.

(Psych2Go, 11/2/20) Here are 10 Things a Narcissist Would Say from the never ending collection of videos throwing the term around for those hurt by relationships with selfish people. It goes like this; Are you dealing with a narcissist right now? Narcissists are masters of sabotage, deceit, and emotional manipulation. While Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) is very rare, a lot more people actually have narcissistic tendencies. That can make them just as dangerous to be around as someone with NPD. This is why so many of us, unfortunately, find ourselves falling for them and letting them into our lives without really knowing just how much trouble we’re getting into. Oftentimes, we don’t realize how horrible they really are until it’s too late.
So P2G has made this video to help learn how to spot a narcissist and save ourselve the emotional trauma.
If this video sounds like someone you know but you're not sure if they are a narcissist, we've got you covered as well: Here's our previous video on the signs someone is a narcissist: youtu.be.com.

(The Weekend University) What really causes depression and anxiety – and how can we really solve them?
In this talk award-winning journalist and author of Chasing the ScreamJohann Hari discusses his recent 40,000-mile journey across the world, where he interviewed social scientists uncovering evidence that depression and anxiety are not caused by a "chemical imbalance" in our brains.
Rather, they are largely caused by key problems with the way we live today. Johann Hari’s journey took him from an Amish community in Indiana, to a mind-blowing series of experiments in Baltimore, to an uprising in Berlin.
Along the way he uncovered nine real causes of depression and anxiety, which eventually led him to the scientists who are discovering seven very different solutions – ones that really work.
ABOUT: Johann Hari is a New York Times best-selling author. His book Lost Connections: Why You're Depressed and How to Find Hope has been translated into 15 languages and is currently being adapted into a major Hollywood film and into a non-fiction documentary series.
With over 20 million views, he is one of the most-watched TED speakers of all time. He has written for The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, The Guardian, and was twice named "National Newspaper Journalist of the Year" by Amnesty International.
As part of The Chosen Ones Series, Gavin Haynes attempts to peel the pop back away from the psych to see what’s left.
Haynes visits the experts, quizzes YouTube gurus, hangs out with the well-varnished girls dating on hotties-only site BeautifulPeople.com, and support groups for victims of narcissists, all the while hunting for a real-life narcissist.
"Trace Amounts" is an investigative documentary exploring the link between the mercury based additive thimerosal and the autism epidemic. The film explores the alarming rate at which the population of the world is being exposed to mercury through industrial emissions, over the counter preparations, and the unsafe use and disposal of dental silver fillings and florescent light bulbs.
All say the same thing. Mercury, a potent neurotoxin, is unsafe.

Thimerosal (also thiomersal, a mercury-laden preservative, an excipient ingredient, used in vaccines) is toxic. It causes autism spectrum disorder in conjunction with low glutathione, which helps excrete this toxin. In some people little is produced in the body making them very susceptible to injury. Chelate them. High testosterone in most boys and in some girls also makes children more susceptible to injury.
Mercury is thousands of times more toxic than lead. It is the most non-radioactive neurotoxic element. It should be removed from all drugs. The FDA is not able to, but it can take it out of over-the-counter pharmaceuticals loaded with thimerosal.

Amy addicted to alcohol, drugs, anorexia
(Channel 5) With fans all over the world still struggling to come to terms with her
death, a Channel 5 documentary reveals the full shocking truth about Amy
Winehouse's tortured private life. Now a newer documentary, "Amy," also examines her short life.
The Untold Story of Amy
Fame, fortune, beauty, youth, influence -- and it was not enough?
Delinquents forced to watch Winehouse movie
Giant guardians protect entrance to one of Thailand's many temples (Kai Kardd).
These darn kids today, venerable!
(Sep Singer Amy Winehouse, bedeviled by addictions to drugs
and alcohol before her death in 2011 at the age of 27, was the subject of
a well-received documentary/cautionary tale this year, "Amy." (See trailer above).
[Thailand is one of the most Buddhist countries in the world, with more than 90% of the population being Theravada Buddhists, but there are modern problems in paradise.] The Thai Health Promotion
Foundation and the Stop Drink Network arranged for nearly 100 boys from
a juvenile detention center, together with dozens of university
students and members of various youth groups, to watch the film on
Wednesday, saying they hope it inspires them to overcome their own
problems.
The inside of temples is even more glorious than their heavenly exteriors (Kai Kardd).
.
What did the Buddha say about drugs, drink?
The film documents Amy Winehouse's talent, how
she tried to cope with the pressures of fame, and her death of
accidental alcohol poisoning. "I think Amy's story is a real story that
reflects real problems in the society, especially among teenagers. When
Amy felt too much pressure, she acted out and started drinking, but she
was gifted and she found that gift. It's not too late for the students
to find their gifts and learn from her mistakes," said Kamron Chudecha
of the Stop Drink Network.

Even though Winehouse was a celebrity with
fans around the world, Kamron said he sees a lot of similarities
between her problems and those of juveniles in detention centers. "These
kids think the society labels them as drug addicts, alcohol addicts, and
criminals. When one hits rock bottom, it takes a lot of courage to
fight the loneliness and criticism, like when Amy has to fight the media
attention and people around her. Amy lost the battle, but these kids
still have a chance," he said.
The juvenile detention center outside
Bangkok houses youths sent there for serious crimes such as murder and
drug-related crimes with sentences of five years or more. Books and
movies are shown and discussed as part of effort to rehabilitate them. More
Amy eventually performs "Back to Black" during her failed comeback due to drugs and alcohol. She's just like Nirvana's Kurt Cobain, said by investigator Tom Grant to have been murdered by his wife Courtney Love.
