The research behind this is wild. If you played Pokémon as a kid, you have a tiny region in your brain that exists only because of Pokémon. Not a metaphor. Stanford put people in brain scanners and found it. The study was published in Nature Human Behavior in 2019. They scanned 11 adults who grew up glued to their Game Boys and 11 who never played. When they showed both groups images of the original 151, the players' brains lit up in one specific spot every time. Same spot across all 11 people. The non-players showed zero response. That spot is a little fold in the back of your brain that normally processes things like animal shapes and cartoon faces. In the Pokémon players, a chunk of it had been permanently reassigned. Their brains carved out a Pokémon department sometime around age 6 or 7 and just never took it down. And the reason it ended up in the same place in everyone's brain comes down to the Game Boy itself. The screen was 2.6 inches. Every kid held it at roughly the same distance. So those 151 characters hit the exact same patch of each kid's retina, thousands of times, during the years when the brain is still soft enough to reorganize itself. Where an image hits your retina in childhood is what tells your brain where to build the wiring. Reading works the same way. Humans invented writing about 5,000 years ago. There's zero evolutionary reason for a brain region dedicated to recognizing words. But every person who learns to read grows one, roughly the size of a dime, in the same part of the brain. Brain-imaging research from 2018 actually watched it appear in children's heads as they learned their letters. It grew by quietly taking over nearby tissue that wasn't doing much yet. Stanford published a follow-up this year showing this region is way smaller or missing entirely in kids with dyslexia, and that 8 weeks of intense reading practice physically grew it back. London taxi drivers show the same thing in a completely different part of the brain. Brain scans from a 2000 study found the region that stores mental maps had physically expanded, and the longer they'd been driving, the bigger it got. These drivers spend 3 to 4 years memorizing 25,000 streets before they get licensed. About half wash out. The common thread is childhood. Harvard researchers trained young monkeys to recognize new shapes and they developed brand-new brain regions in predictable locations. Adult monkeys trained on the same shapes never got those structural changes. The young brain wires itself in a way the adult brain cannot replicate. If you're wondering whether a Pokémon patch in your brain means you lost something else, no. The region sits alongside your normal visual processing areas, not on top of them. Your brain has hundreds of millions of neurons in that zone alone. The lead author noted that every participant in the study had gone on to earn a PhD.

A Stanford study found that people who played Pokémon heavily as kids developed a small region of the brain that responds specifically to Pokémon characters. Researchers scanned adults who grew up playing on Game Boy and showed them images of Pokémon like Pikachu and Bulbasaur. Their brains lit up in the same exact spot, a consistent area in the visual cortex tied to recognizing specific categories of objects. The reason comes down to childhood. When you’re young, your brain is more flexible, and spending hours memorizing hundreds of similar-looking Pokémon essentially trained it to carve out space just for them. (via @Stanford)

Patrick tapi bukan Klui...

kenapa ada orang yang gampang emosi kalau ngobrol sama orang tuanya? padahal lagi gak dimarahin lagi gak ada masalah besar juga tapi bawaannya udah sesek duluan pengen cepet kelar gan pindah dari tempat secara psikologis, ini hal yang cukup umum, ayo kita bahas:

Pupuk "rasa ingin tau"/curiosity. It will open doors for you. If you have curiosity, you can combine them with: + Goal = jadi lebih fokus + Action = jadi ada hasil + Consistency = jadi ada long term impact Makes sense ya.

The greatest show in the world is ready. Are you? 🏆 #FIFAWorldCup

Only one came to mind

Not everything should stay as an April Fool's joke 🙏🏻

The Chicago Bulls post Michael Jordan

Gue masih ga berani ngomong di rapat organisasi. Masih takut untuk berpendapat. Jadi banyakan diam dan memperhatikan saja. Ini terjadi sejak Maret 2020 sampe awal 2026. Selama 6 tahun saya jadi pengurus di sebuah yayasan yang mengelola rumah duka di Kota Pekanbaru, saya ga berani mengutarakan pendapat saat diajak rapat. Why? Alasannya karna saya ga tau apa-apa soal pengelolaan rumah duka, tanah pemakaman, dan krematorium. Selama 6 tahun menjabat anggota bidang humas, saya cuma handle social media organisasi saja. Posting berita duka. Posting kegiatan bansos. Itu saja. Ga pernah paham gimana pengelolaan rumah duka secara keseluruhan. Sudah sering diajak meeting, tapi karna kesibukan, sangat jarang bisa ikutan. Jadi saat saya bisa hadir, saat pengurus lain membahas terkait rencana ekspansi tanah pemakaman, sarana dan prasarana, aturan/flow untuk perayaan Qing Ming, tata kelola inventory di bursa (peti mati, kertas sembahyang, dupa, dll), dan lainnya, saya banyakan diam dan memperhatikan aja. Saat saya ga punya ilmunya, saya khawatir, komentar saya tidak relevan dan ga tepat. Saat saya ga punya ilmunya, saya pakai kesempatan hadir di meeting untuk memahami, belajar dari senior-senior yang sudah lama mengurusi yayasan ini. Saat saya ga punya ilmunya, saya harus banyak mendengarkan, ga perlu sibuk membuktikan ke dunia kalo saya capable, saya tau. _ Awal tahun 2026 ini, saya meluangkan waktu khusus untuk memahami alur dan detail administrasi di rumah duka. Banyak sekali informasi yang dulunya saya ga paham, sekarang sudah sangat sangat menguasai. Saya dan tim di kantor, secara sukarela, juga mengembangkan aplikasi yang bisa handle flow di rumah duka agar jadi lebih mudah. "Ga bertele-tele lagi", kalo kata koordinator lapangan di sana. Saat ini versi awal aplikasi sudah digunakan. _ Sejak punya ilmunya, saya mulai berani menyampaikan pandangan saya atas domain yang sedang dibahas di rapat kami. Ga lagi takut. Ga lagi diam. Ga cuma memperhatikan. _ Punya opini itu gampang. Semua orang bisa "berbunyi". Tapi hindari "asal bunyi". Tau kapan harus diam, kapan harus bersuara itu penting. Ga semua hal harus kita komentari. Ambil waktu untuk ngerti dulu, dalami, baru ambil posisi. Makes sense ya.

Three miss in a row for a four-time winner is crazy

2004 was a good year, but your Gmail address doesn't need to be stuck in it. To say goodbye to v0t3f0rp3dr02004@gmail.com or mrbrightside416@gmail.com (or whatever you were into at the time), go to your Google Account settings and choose any name available. You'll keep your old username and you can sign in with both.

@virtualballers #iziiin

Appreciate buat XL yang kuotanya gapernah angus dan akumulatif ke bulan2 berikutnya. Gw sampe bingung ini ngabisin kuotanya gimana. Sebagai pindahan dari provider merah jujur gua takjub ada fitur begini.
