      is there a third way to understand conclusions than watching cringy video or reading tones of text?

        Read the abstract, then read the conclusion. If you want to dig deeper into the findings, read the discussion section. Unless you’re interested in the minutia of the methods or the research context, you can skip the rest of the paper.

    I wish there were more options than just bubble poppers and fidget spinners.

    My type of stimming involves touching soft fabrics and firm needles like hard velcro loops or pine needles.

    …a bit unusual it seems.
