  The test used to assign IQ is heavily biased in many different ways. That’s first off.

  Secondly, I think we can agree there are several types of intelligence, quite a few of which are not going to give the test taker a positive score.

  If we measure the potential of a person by such a flawed metric, we do ourselves a disservice.

    Very true. I do believe in multiple intelligences.

    I was just being stupid

  Be a bit careful of Jordan Peterson, sometimes they start with grains of commonsense and gradually take you down a rabbit hole! It’s very easy to unknowingly go down an alt right pipeline from innocent starting points like self improvement.

  I think you’re being a bit hard on yourself. Even if you did everything perfectly sleeping problems can just happen from stress. Even things like staying up can be from a need for more quiet time to decompress, or finish other obligations. And if you struggle with routine or procrastination that can happen with overwhelm.

  I’ve noticed your family can be really hard on you and in turn you’re hard on yourself. But I want you to know that your twenties are turbulent, choosing and starting a career is hard. And sometimes everything goes wrong at once. To struggle with it doesn’t mean you’re not doing well.

  It might be worth discussing the PMDD with a doctor if that hasn’t already happened, and if there isn’t any management in place. Or to even review it if there’s something that isn’t working. Because that alone is going to make life so much harder. It is incredibly difficult.

  I can’t really advise on the career choice but I’m really hoping you find a less stressful niche or something that suits you better!

    I don’t think it’s my family, I think it’s mostly me. Thank you for your kind message 💕

      Our environment has a powerful influence on how we feel about ourselves and you’ve got a lot of stressors on.

      You’re doing great!

    Peterson said there have been 5000 fake youtube sites taken down so far, they fake his voice, use AI pictures and just say any old rubbish, he is greatly concerned

      Hopefully the prevalence of AI slop might be addressed at some point because it seems some Bollywood actors have sued YouTube over deepfake videos damaging their careers.

      It seems like it could be difficult to police though

  Please don’t listen to Peterson - he’s a mentally unwell fucktard

  It’s daylight savings change week, don’t sweat it

  and no, Peterson is not right, it’s not the whole story, personality and character counts for a whole lot
