5 Things Healthcare Lost In 2021
As 2020 passed, we all thought we’d be better off with 2021, so we were happy to roll the old year off the cliff (or blow it off, for that matter). When setting expectations for the new norm, masks, some social distancing and even a subtle range of vaccines lined up were being considered… But not this. Nearing the end of 2021, we think of the end of the pandemic as a white sail gleams in the distance (and just as we publish this article, news arose of yet another virus mutant called omicron). In 2021, we could’ve gotten over with the pandemic, period. But, (as it was famously said in the movie Charlie Wilson�...

Developments In Psychology ’s Covid Research
By Emma L. Barratt Early in the pandemic, there was a rapid shift in the pace of research. With the situation evolving quickly, lockdowns coming into effect, and the massive loss of life that followed, researchers across academia were racing against the clock to produce papers. This haste was unusual for most scientists, more used to detailed scrutiny, further investigations, and collaboration. As a result, some were concerned about the rigour of papers that would ultimately see the light of day. Early on, psychologist Vaughan Bell tweeted with regards to Covid research, “If it’s urgent, the urgency is to ...

Cancer
I sometimes like to open my posts with a joke. But not this time. There isn ' t a joke for this.Mrs. Dalai has cancer.How ' s that for a kick in the ass? I am neither vain nor arrogant enough to think that I could write the ultimate treatise on dealing with a loved one ' s cancer. There are any number of engaging stories out there on Caring Bridge and the like. You don ' t want to read a tear-jerker anyway, nor do you want to endure every last boring and/or gory detail. Mrs. Dalai would be very upset with me if I shared all that. Hell, she ' s probably going to be upset with me for writing this at all. She is a very p...

Libertarians Have Been Right about Marijuana Legalization Thus Far
Lachlan MerskyIn anarticle National Review published this month, the author chronicles the alleged negative effects of marijuana legalization, yet his claims are dubious. Marijuana is only legal in18 states, and it is still a federally illegalSchedule I substance, so it is far too early to make any conclusions on legalization. That said, the preliminary data we do have can tell us a lot about what marijuana legalization might look like on a broader scale, and given what we know, this article missed the mark.The author ’s primary argument for prohibition is that “weed is unhealthy,” citing evidence...

To lower stress levels (ours and others ’), practice cognitive reframing instead of venting
We all get upset from time to time—some of us more than others. Whether we’re sad about the loss of a loved one, angry at friends or family, or fearful about the state of the world, it often feels good to let it all out. That’s because sharing our emotions reduces our stress while making us feel closer to others we share with and providing a sense of belonging. When we open up our inner selves and people respond with sympathy, we feel seen, understood, and supported. But “sharing” covers a lot of different modes of communication. Are some healthier than others, over the long run? Science suggests that it depends,...
