(Richard Enos) There is no question about it. The Coronavirus and the isolation measures it has spawned have virtually forced many couples to be in each others’ company more than they are used to. For some, this has no doubt led to an increase in frustration, intolerance, despair, and, unfortunately, domestic violence. My heart and prayers go out to those who are having difficulties coping with the situation.

Stay Active: Not Finding New Goals Post-retirement Associated with Greater Cognitive Decline
(Justin Deschamps) To be alive means to be active, dynamic, and playful, ideally. Human beings are not meant to stop learning, creating, or sitting mindlessly in front of a TV for hours upon hours, especially during the latter stages of life. The fact our culture has taken the invaluable resource of wisdom accumulated by our elders and cut us off as a people is tragic. But we can restore this link. The following study indirectly supports this conjecture by showing that as we age, we need to continue to generate new dreams, goals, and visions of a fulfilled life. I argue community is the ultimate gateway for this fulfillment. And in the absence of that integrated community, we can do other things to keep our spirits alive and active.

What Other People Think About Us: Trash Talk Hurts, Even When It Comes from a Robot
(Justin Deschamps) “I don’t care what they think, so it doesn’t bother me.” How often have you used that to dismiss something someone thinks or says about you? We’ve all done it before. We’d like to think we can ignore the opinions of others, because, let’s face it, people aren’t always nice or respectful. But can we really ignore this? A recent study suggests we’re hardwired to care about what other people think of us, so much so, even when we know a robot is slinging the insults, it still affects us.

Psychologically, we’re hardwired to know ourselves through who we become near others, wherein the brain regulates our emotions and sense of self-worth based on the health of our social attachments.

In simple terms, the reason a celebrity rises to high social status is that people believe in them. Why? Because they represent something people believe is valuable.
