Also, re: my headcanon that Blindsight vampires don't experience fear, anger, pain, or bloodlust as pushing them away from rational thought, and actually get smarter in those states because the usual energy-conservation limiters on their brain activity are overridden: dialogue from a more present day-ish Blindsight fanfic probably never to be written:
*The scene: three or four scientists and one security guy huddling in a lab somewhere, talking to each other in the low-volume voices of people afraid to make any loud sound, occasionally glancing anxiously at a reinforced door. Distant screams and gunfire can occasionally be heard. A vampire has gone rogue, escaped containment, and is moving through the facility, leaving a trail of corpses as it goes.*
"Janiczek's exercise probably overstimulated it..."
"I told him it was a bad idea! War game against a deliberately enraged vampire in a locked maze, whatever smarmy reassurances they gave about 'proper precautions' I fucking knew that was playing with fire! And for what, some stupid adolescent Battle Royale shit? What's that even prove, anyway? I think he just wanted to beat it so he could stroke off his ego with being able to say he'd done it!"
"Oh, God..."
"I want to know how it figured out the passcode. It couldn't before!"
"Have you considered that maybe it held back during the passcode security test cause it was planning to escape? You know, like a smart person would?"
"Security isn't that stupid. The test presented it with a situation in which it was in its genuine best interests to make a sincere best effort to figure out the code. It's a bit over my head, I'm just a goon, but I'm told the game theory logic was impeccable, and it got a thorough tire-kicking by five very high IQ human prodigies."
"Who aren't as smart as a vamp. If they were, we wouldn't need vamps."
"Vamp's smarter than one of them, but probably not five times smarter."
"Yeah, that wasn't the problem. I think I know what happened. Problem was the test conditions."
"What do you mean?"
"I've looked at the test records. Whoever designed it clearly didn't understand vampires very well. They had it in a nice, quiet room, sitting in front of a computer terminal typing in answers, like... like Spock in that Star Trek movie, the one with the whales! That's not how you get a vampire to think at full capacity! Look, almost everything about a vampire is set up to keep its metabolism as low as possible, to conserve those precious protocadherins. That means a vampire's intelligence is usually limited by energy conservation. But if it's in danger, those limiters get overridden! You don't pinch calories if it's an open question whether you'll survive the next five minutes! Now think of what this vampire's going through. Natural born killer, yeah, but it's never been in a fight before! It's spent most of its life in a nice, comfortable, safe round room! It's not used to violence! And then, oh, Janiczek wanted to really test vampire combat capabilities, so of course he had it goaded like a Spanish bull, teased and tormented it so it'd be nice and angry when it was time to wave that red flag and bring in the matador! It's got very little emotional resources to handle an experience like that! Can you imagine how scared and angry it is? Vampires don't experience fear and anger and pain the way we do, those feelings don't push them away from rational thought, they take the calorie-pinching shackles off their intellect! It's blood-crazy, metabolism running hot..."
"... That'd make it smarter! Shit..."

With so many of us now constantly tethered to digital technology via our smartphones, computers, tablets, and even watches, there is a huge experiment underway that we didn’t exactly sign up for.
Companies like Google, Facebook, Twitter, Apple, even Vox (if we’re being completely honest) are competing for our attention, and they’re doing so savvily, knowing the psychological buttons to push to keep us coming back for more. It’s now common for an American kid to get a smartphone by age 10. That’s a distraction device they carry in their pockets all the time.
The more adapted to the attention economy we become, the more we fear it could be hurting us. In Silicon Valley, we’re told more parents are limiting their kids’ screen time and even writing no-screen clauses into their contracts with nannies. Which makes us wonder: Do they know something we don’t?
If it’s true that constant digital distractions are changing our cognitive functions for the worse — leaving many of us more scatter-brained, more prone to lapses in memory, and more anxious — it means we’re living through a profound transformation of human cognition. Or could it be that we’re overreacting, like people in the past who panicked about new technologies like the printing press or the radio?
To find out, we decided to ask experts: How is our constant use of digital technologies affecting our brain health?
The answers, you’ll see, are far from certain or even consistent. There’s a lot yet not known about the connection between media use and brain health in adults and kids. The evidence that does exist on multitasking and memory, for instance, suggests a negative correlation, but a causal link is still elusive. Still, many of the researchers and human behavior experts we spoke with still feel an unease about where the constant use of digital technology is taking us.
“We’re all pawns in a grand experiment to be manipulated by digital stimuli to which no one has given explicit consent,” Richard Davidson, neuroscientist at the University of Wisconsin, told us. But what are the results of the experiment?
Our conversations were edited for length and clarity.
Richard Davidson, neuroscientist at the University of Wisconsin Madison and founder and director of the Center for Healthy Minds
I am most worried about the increase in distractability, the national attention deficit we all suffer from, and the consequences that arise from this.
Our attention is being captured by devices rather than being voluntarily regulated. We are like a sailor without a rudder on the ocean — pushed and pulled by the digital stimuli to which we are exposed rather than by the intentional direction of our own mind.
The ability to voluntarily regulate attention is more developed in humans than other species. As William James, the great psychologist, wrote in 1890, “The faculty of voluntarily bringing back a wandering attention, over and over again, is the very root of judgment, character, and will.”
But we are becoming impaired in that capacity, globally. We’re all pawns in a grand experiment to be manipulated by digital stimuli to which no one has given explicit consent. This is happening insidiously under the radar.
This, to me, underscores the urgency of training our minds with meditation so we don’t have to check our phone 80 times a day.
Christopher Burr, philosopher of cognitive science and postdoctoral researcher at the Oxford Internet Institute
Our constant use of digital technologies is allowing intelligent systems to learn more and more about our psychological traits, with varying degrees of validity or accuracy. For instance, our smartphone’s accelerometer might be used to infer our stress levels at work, or an automated analysis of our vocal patterns could determine that we’re depressed.
But what’s concerning to me is that users are rarely fully informed that their data could be used in this way. Furthermore, there is often insufficient consideration by the companies who develop the growing variety of “health and well-being” technologies of the risks of intervening. For instance, companies may be nudging a user to change sleep patterns, mood, or dietary preferences and causing unintended harm.
In a health care setting, a doctor will try to avoid interventions that do not involve the patient in the decision-making process. Instead, doctors try to respect and promote the patient’s self-understanding and self-determination. We need to find ways of upholding this relationship in the domain of health and well-being technologies as well.
Any inference or subsequent intervention that aims at changing the behavior of a user should be fully transparent, and ideally scrutinized by an ethical review committee. This would help to minimize the chance of unintended consequences (e.g., increased stress, anxiety, or even the risk of behavioral addiction).
Anthony Wagner, chair of the department of psychology at Stanford
The science tells us that there is a negative relationship between using more media simultaneously and working memory capacity. And we know working memory capacity correlates with language comprehension, academic performance, and a whole host of outcome variables that we care about.
The science tells us that the negative relationship exists, but the science doesn’t tell us whether the media behavior is causing the change. It’s too early to really conclude. The answer is we have no idea.
But if there’s a causal relationship, and we are transforming the underlying cognitive functional capabilities, that could have a consequence for academic performance or achievement. One would want to know that.
The field needs to go to big science, we need to go to really large [number of study participants]. I’d take the early studies as suggestions of relationships, but now, let’s actually do the science with using design and power that would lead us to believe things might be more trustworthy in terms of the result that everyone finds.
Paul Murphy, Alzheimer’s researcher in the Department of Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry at the University of Kentucky
Neurodegenerative diseases take decades to develop, and widespread use of electronic devices like smartphones etc., is a still a relatively recent thing. So the scary way to look at this is that we are conducting a risky experiment with some potentially serious public health consequences, and we won’t know for another decade or so if we’ve made some terrible mistakes.
In a way, this is analogous to the problems that we have on studying the long-term effects of screen time on children. We can suspect that this may be bad, but we are still many years away from knowing, and we are nowhere near knowing what sort of exposure is safe, or how much might be dangerous.
Gary Small, author of the book iBrain and director of UCLA’s Memory and Aging Research Center at the Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior
My biggest concern is with young people, whose brains are still developing from birth through adolescence. There’s a process called pruning [the process of removing neurons that are damaged or degraded to improve the brain’s networking capacity]. This could be affected through all the time using tech. We don’t have data on that — but it certainly can raise a concern.
[The constant use of technology] does affect our brain health. It has an upside and a downside. The downside is that when people are using it all the time it interferes with their memory because they are not paying attention to what’s going on. They are distracted.
As far as I know, there are not systematic studies looking at that. You can only look indirectly at this. So we have studied the frequency of memory complaints according to age. You find about 15 percent of young adults complain about their memory, which suggests there might be things going on such as distraction.
On the positive side, there are certain mental tasks, when using these technologies, that exercise our brains. Some studies have shown some games video games and apps can improve working memory, fluid intelligence [problem solving], and multitasking skills.
Susanne Baumgartner, Center for Research on Children, Adolescents, and the Media, University of Amsterdam
I am researching the potential impacts of social media and smartphone use on adolescents’ attention and sleep. I am particularly interested in the effects of media multitasking, that is using media while engaging in other media activities or doing homework, or being in a conversation. Most teenagers nowadays have their own smartphones and therefore access to all kinds of media content whenever they want.
We find in our studies that adolescents [in the Netherlands] who engage in media multitasking more frequently report more sleep problems and more attention problems. They also show lower academic performance. However, this does not necessarily indicate that media use was the cause of this.
When looking at sleep problems, we found that stress related to social media use was a better indicator of sleep problems than the amount of social media use. This seems to indicate that it is not social media use per se that is related to sleep problems, but rather whether adolescents feel stressed by their usage.
So overall, I am still a bit hesitant about the conclusion that digital media use is detrimental to adolescents’ cognitive development. At this point we need more studies that truly investigate these impacts in long-term studies and with better measurements (e.g., tracking smartphone behavior instead of just asking teenagers about their media use).
And we should also not forget to look at potential beneficial effects. For example, studies conducted by other researchers found that specific types of media use, such as playing action video games, can be beneficial for cognitive abilities.
Elizabeth Englander, director and founder of the Massachusetts Aggression Reduction Center
One of the most striking things we’ve been looking at in the lab is that teens often tell us almost all characteristics of social media can make them feel more anxious.
If they see what their friends are doing, that can make them feel anxious about not being a part of it. If they don’t see what friends are doing, that also makes them anxious — they worry about being left out. The times they don’t feel anxious is when they are using social media and actively engaging with their friends in a positive way. But at other times it does seem to increase anxiety.
That’s striking. It’s a model of an interaction where there’s this strong reward system — and that it kind of seems to keep kids on an emotional tether. One girl described it as a leash.
In terms of direct evidence [showing mobile phones and social media impede human connections in person], it’s limited. But think about it: How do people connect with each other? They do it through social skills. And how do you build social skills? There’s only one way we are aware of — through face to face interactions with other peers your age.
When you have a society where other things are displacing face to face social interactions, it’s reasonable to assume those are going to impact the development of social skills. It does seem to be what we are seeing now.
Heather Kirkorian, associate professor in the school of human ecology at the University of Wisconsin Madison
One thing is clear: The impact of digital media depends partly on how we use them.
In the case of infants and young children, researchers often refer to content and context. That is, the impact of digital media on young children depends on what children are doing and how those activities are structured by the adults who are — or are not — in the room.
For instance, we might compare video-chatting with a grandparent versus watching an educational TV show versus playing a violent video game versus using a finger-painting app. Young children are the most likely to benefit from digital media when the content is engaging, educational, and relevant to their own lives; when they use it together with others — when parents help children understand what they see on-screen and connect it to what they experience off-screen. And when digital-media activities are balanced with off-screen activities like playing outside, playing with toys, reading books with caregivers, and getting the recommended amount of sleep.
So the research with teens and adults isn’t much different. For instance, the effects of social media depend on whether we use them to connect with loved ones throughout the day and get social support versus compare our lives to the often highly filtered lives of others and expose ourselves to bullying or other negative content.
Similarly, the impact of video games on attention depends on the type of game that is played and the type of attention that is being measured.
Adam Gazzaley, professor of neurology at University of California San Francisco and author of The Distracted Mind
I’ve written a lot about the direct impact of digital technology on emotional regulation, attention, and stress, as driven by over-exposure to information, rapid reward cycles, and simultaneous engagement in multiple tasks. These are certainly reasons to be concerned.
But personally, I find one of the most challenging aspects of our digital preoccupation to be the displacement it induces from nature, face-to-face communication, physical activity, and quiet, internally-focused moments.
I’m currently deep into a trip to New Zealand with limited technology exposure so that I can focus on connecting with friends, nature and my own mind. I realize now more than ever before how important these experiences are for my brain health.
That being said, I do believe that technology can offer us an incredible opportunity to enhance our cognition and enrich our lives. Figuring this out is our next great technological and human challenge.
Ethan Zuckerman, director of the Center for Civic Media at MIT
With any new technology, there is always a pattern of people saying, “This is addictive, and it’s destroying society as we know it.” There’s often something real to those concerns. There’s also often something which is moral panic.
One of the ways you sense moral panic is that it tends to be focused on our kids or sexuality. So when you see someone saying we are going to have a lost generation, or that Bluetooth is leading youth to have sex at an unprecedented rates — these are always indications of moral panic rather than concern about real things.
From what I can tell, parenting culture in Silicon Valley is this performative craziness. I’m going to virtue signal harder than anyone else. I am a better parent than you are because i put crazier restrictions on my family than you do. [Banning screens] feels very consistent with that.
The reason those stories are satisfying is you come out of it thinking, “What assholes. If they think this stuff isn’t good — why do they continue to do it?” Then you have folks like Jaron Lanier who say, “Quit your social media now, it’s bad for you.” That feels irresponsible in another way — there are clearly billions of people who aren’t going to quit social media in part because it’s become a critical communications tech. It’s core to how they interact with the world. For a lot of work and play — it’s essential these days.
So what I want to say to Lanier is make it better. We’re not putting this genie back in the bottle. There’s a lot of stuff from it that’s turned out to be good. There’s no one seriously proposing we’re going to turn all of this off.
The interesting question is: What are the real problems and how do we address them and make them better? How would you mitigate those harmful effects? What are the positive effects we want out of it?
Nir Eyal, author of Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products
Technology is like smoking cannabis.
Ninety percent of people who smoke cannabis do not get addicted. But the point is that you’re going to get some people who misuse a product if it’s sufficiently good and engaging, that’s bound to happen. The solution to that, is we should fix the harm, not the technology itself but the harm it does. I want companies to look for the addicts and help them.
Lots of companies make addictive products — I guarantee somebody is addicted to Vox. The good news is that these companies know how much you’re using their product. So if they wanted to they could simply look at their log and say, “Look if you use the product 30 hours a week, 40 hours a week, we’re gonna reach out and say, ‘Hey can we help you moderate your behavior? You’re showing a behavioral pattern consistent with someone who may be struggling with an addiction. How can we help?’”
And you know what, the fact is, it would actually make the platform better. It is in their interest to do this. I know that some of them are working on it.

15 Parenting Oversights You Have No Idea You're Creating.
NEP possesses one of the biggest energies in The United States, NextEra Electricity, as a parent delivering an extensive pipeline from jobs. For some folks, it certainly never strikes them that the parent ought to be grateful to the little one for bringing happiness or even volume or whatever to their lives ... it is actually all the other means cycle! A mama could have possessed sex-related experiences with greater than one male and also does unknown which one is actually the moms and dad of her kid. Single moms and dads, given that they need to stay off one profit as well as spend for day care, commonly possess a lot less amount of money after that dueled parent loved ones. Colours may differ, yet canines tend additional towards the cream or even white colour of the Maltese than the tans as well as browns from the various other parent. While maybe an adolescent has actually ended up being included with a harassing sweetheart or even girl, it must be frustrating as a moms and dad to be told this ravaging information, go to discover additional as well as find that the cause is bad parenting.

Your condolence character ought to acknowledge because grieving is not simply acceptable, however additionally necessary to get past the discomfort from losing a moms and dad. I was a singular moms and dad for a variety of years ... heck, I still am actually and also my kid is actually presently 28 yrs old ... this is a laborious for sure and also the solitary parent never definitely can cover all the manners from pair of parents.

9 Universal Sexual Myths Among Teenagers
It is a period of collection and mishandling and not every last bit of it is oblivious. A great part of the cobwebbed disarray that torment the juvenile years exists in those teenaged personalities as they attempt to understand their own particular developing sexuality. Due to the cover of dull mystery that has been flung over the subject, misleading statements about sex tumble over self fancies and bump with obsolete misrepresentations - adding to the turbulence of these grieved years.
Here are the most widely recognized confusions about sex among adolescents:
Will kissing make me pregnant? Is withdrawal sufficiently safe not to make me pregnant?
Is my penis too little to fulfill my young lady and me? Will sniff pf cocaine take my "execution" to the statures?
Address, address... they proliferate hotel those irritating pubescent years! What's more, neither extending your creative ability nor asking you cleverest colleague gives fulfilling answers. Or, then again even the correct ones! Underneath, an abstract of the perplexing sexual myths that scourge the high school years and 'every bit of relevant information' answers:
Myth #1: Masturbation Is Self-Abusive, A Dirty Word, It Makes You Week and Adversely Affects Sexual Enjoyment
No other type of sexual action has been all the more often (or subtly) examined among young people, all the more entirely censured by their folks and all the more all around honed by both eras.
A few youngsters, both young men and young ladies trait anything that turns out badly from skin break out to falling hair, to the way that they stroked off, in this manner giving standard discipline to the happiness regarding a splendidly characteristic movement. What's more awful, "shortcoming" has additionally been associated with masturbation. At long last, the semen is thought to be a valuable liquid of which each man has just a constrained supply, and consequently its misfortune, through masturbation, it is dreaded, may make them lose their intensity.
Really, the semen is only a glandular emission and in a sound male the balls are equipped for creating semen at whatever point required. In time long past circumstances and even now, in specific groups, young ladies and young men wedded at 16 to 17 and dwelling together positively did not, and does not make them powerless at all. Be that as it may, a 25 year old unmarried man who jerks off feelings of dread physical shortcoming is a counter-intuitive dread.
Numerous adolescent young ladies, as well, smother the inclination to stroke off on the grounds that they fear it will hurt them, stop feminine cycle, impede bosom development, make them barren, break the hymen or unfavorably influence their ability for sexual satisfaction sometime down the road.
Like young men, a few young ladies likewise feel that the desire to jerk off is an indication that they are "anomalous" somehow. These bothered emotions may show themselves as psychosomatic side effects like cerebral pain, energy, shuddering and shortness of breath. A few young ladies even stress, that stroking off could make them pregnant. What's more, if this inclination agrees with missed periods, which once in a while occurs in the early bleeding years (in light of the fact that the hormones set aside opportunity to conform), they may even get hypochondriac and examine suicide. Now and then it's the strain and stress that bring on amenorrhea.
In any case, the manual incitement of the clitoris or by some other delicate question like a towel does not bring about harm. Nor will manual incitement of the vagina crack the hymen.
At long last, there is nothing strange about masturbation unless it meddles with ordinary day by day action or turns into a fixation, what is unusual is its unnatural concealment.
Myth #2: Is It Abnormal To Have Sexual Fantasies?
From pre-adulthood on, dreams turn into the request of the day or turn into the request of the day or are kept a firmly protected mystery is the dread of being met with sicken and scorn. In young ladies, they are at first generally sentimental dreams about dating revered figures like film stars, pop vocalists, models, instructors, specialists and so on. Here and there, they are more express or "strong" including circumstances, for example, stripping, rough sex and assault.
Among young men, the dreams are more organized. They may feel rationally "scrutinize", feel and appreciate the parts of a young lady's body, and they frequently go the degree of fantasizing the entire sexual act.
Such "leisure activities" include the fantasizing young people with associates or companions in personal sexual exercises, which visionary would discover unimaginable in all actuality, and surely humiliating, even frightful, to uncover. In a young lady, any dreams that include her dad or a father figure are about dependably extremely stifled.
It is normal for youngsters to fantasize about those in their prompt condition (family school, school and neighborhood) in light of their constrained introduction the outside world. Truth be told, to some degree, fantasizing is useful is molding a sound sexuality gave the young man or young lady is not fixated on them to the degree that they meddle with ordinary life. Sexual dreams are not any more perilous than whatever other sort of wandering off in fantasy land which likewise demonstrates an upsurge in puberty.
Myth #3: Genital Discharge Adversely Affects One's Health
From pubescence on, most young fellows normally have nighttime outflows (wet dreams). This regularly happens when the psyche has been sexually fortified amid the day, or then again, due to a collection of sperm that should be discharged. Frequently, it is a blend of both. This instigates an emission of the prostate organ, a discharge which fills in as a food, a vehicle and a securely cover to the sperm. Numerous young people feel this release is anomalous and that it makes them frail and sick. This once more, similar to the grieving of the loss of semen in masturbation, is not called for, since this emanation is only a glandular emission.
In ladies, the nighttime emanation is not as abundant. It is a great deal less, of a more watery consistency and shows itself as a slight wetness. Manu young ladies feel humiliated about it and some even say they feel powerless. Really, it is indication of a solid sexuality.
Myth #4: The greater the pennies/vagina, the more noteworthy the sexual fulfillment
Numerous young men and young ladies have burned through tense, tear ridden early high school years agonizing over the sufficiency of their sexual organs. Numerous young ladies, after their first excruciating, even deplorable sexual experience, spend hopeless months or even years attempt to adapt to the figment that their vagina is 'too tight' or 'too little' to suit the penis. Most feelings of dread emerge from obliviousness about the working of the privates. Similarly as with the male penis, amid sexual incitement the vagina likewise experiences unequivocal changes. The muscles of the vaginal opening unwind discharge the vaginal liquid which fills in as oil an, in extent to the sexual incitement, the profundity of the vaginal hole increments. Stress (emerging from fears about the measure of vagina) won't permit these progressions to occur. The subsequent apprehension and nervousness render the vaginal muscles inflexible and invulnerable. This prompts to difficult intercourse, setting the phase for endless loop.
Among young men, most stresses focus on the length, shape and different measurements of their penis, the all the more intense the sex drive and the more noteworthy the capacity to accomplish and keep up an erection. Indeed, a strangely substantial penis can bring about ladies more sexual distress than joy. Likewise, penis which is little in the limp state increment in size for more than bigger private parts amid an erection. Plus, it is the upper third of the vagina that is most touchy, and the upper two third that expands to hold the penis solidly. The lower third of the vagina, the orgasmic stage', does not widen thus sexual fulfillment is unaffected if the penis does not reach there.
In addition, it's not the vagina that is the essential place for the lady's sexual affectability; it is the clitoris, situated at the intersection of labia.
myth #5: The First Experience Is Always Painful
Numerous young ladies get the impression from books, companions and relatives that the main sexual experience is to a great degree excruciating. The truth of the matter is that most first encounters are hurried and need satisfactory foreplay. This occupies adequate vaginal grease and makes section into the dry vagina difficult. In addition, insufficient foreplay makes the young lady less responsive and open and the high school kid, trying to attest his manliness or predominance, may utilize drive, making it considerably more agonizing for the young lady. The vagina just gets to be distinctly prepared to acknowledge penis at a genuinely propelled phase of sexual excitement and this is some time after it gets greased up. An understanding accomplice can limit the torment as it were.
Myth #6: Sexual Enjoyment Can Be Enhanced By Stimulants Like Drugs And Alcohol
A large number of high school young men have squandered beneficiary guardians' cash purchasing different medications in the expectation of expanding phallic length, and the span and recurrence of the sexual demonstration, all in all, to improve their sexual ability.
Ladies are not as keen on aphrodisiacs in light of the fact that, with them, feelings assume a noteworthy part. Additionally, most ladies consider themselves to be detached accomplices in sex. Be that as it may, a few young ladies do take medications to expand their longing. The part of most aphrodisiacs is far fetched as yearning has much to do with the perspective. A few, similar to Spanish fly and mescaline, do work, however their reactions are dangerous, now and then even lethal.
Sedates separated, numerous youngsters utilize liquor as a sexual stimulant. In little amounts, liquor helps diminish hindrances and tension and in this way elevates sexual excitement. In any case, in bigger dosages in light of its hushing impact on the sensory system, it diminishes the affectability of the sexual organs and, later, the ability to keep up an erection.
Myth #7: Menstruation Is Dirty
In prior circumstances, a monthly cycle young lady was relied upon to shroud herself for fear that she defile all that she touched, get close to the yields and harm them or even sharp the drain. She was additionally not permitted to bathe wash her hair, swim, practice or engage in sexual relations.
Today, in spite of the fact that, these practices are uncommon in urban areas, the sentiments, deliberately and subliminally, holds on, that there is something "messy" about monthly cycle. What's more, maxim
