Tool of the day
New
See how brains work differently
Tap a brain and watch it change. Pick autistic, ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD or dyslexia, and see where research finds differences on average, what that can feel like from the inside, and what helps. People overlap far more than they differ.
An idea from the book
Nobody has to be wrong.
Two radios that both work perfectly will still crackle if they’re slightly off, and arguing about whose fault the static is won’t clear it.
From the book: Chapter I: Why we get out of tune
Who made this
I’m Christian. I spent my career as a government auditor, and the problems were almost never the ones anybody could see. They were the jobs nobody had written down. Homes work the same way, so I built a place to write them down, and then added games, because nobody should have to be serious all day.
It’s free, I run it myself, and nothing you type leaves your device. Read my story.
