    Have you ever been told you had a demon?

    I've been called a devil a few times, but I was never told I had a demon.

    Why I think British TV better than American TV (IMHO)

    Why I think British TV better than American TV (IMHO)

    The makers of British TV programmes try to be topically entertaining. The makers of American TV programs try to make a social statement.

    Connections Aspies Notice in the Natural World that Can't Be Explained by Modern Science

    ". . . can't be explained by modern science" --> "I cannot explain it." Otherwise, the subject line seems kinda click-bait-ey.

    Is Psychology a Science?

    I used to have a great deal of interest, which would explain my Psych Minor (EE Major). My current lack of interest in psychology is based on two things: (1) I rely on definitive quanta to make decisions; and (2) Psychology can provide only vague qualia, and only after action has been taken...
