Study discovers neurons in the human #brain that can predict what we are going to say before we say it | ScienceDaily

Findings could be used to develop new treatments for #speech and #language #disorders

I think a lot of symptoms we attribute to various psychological "disorders" are symptoms of the trauma people with those "disorders" endure as part of ableist and anti-neurodivergent abuse.

Diagnostic nomenclature for #disorders of #consciousness #DoCs is poorly evidenced, dangerous, needs overhauling. ‘vegetative state’ is the worst & it should be abandoned immediately. It was always nihilistic, designed 2 make lives of clinicians easier by helping them dismiss lives of their patients. It is also unscientific, stemming not from observation but from violent ideology - a metaphysics that fragments the human being, privileging the mind and neglecting the body. https://aeon.co/essays/why-we-must-abandon-the-vegetative-state-diagnosis
