I know people often do this + return fairly soon. I may well be one of those people. This isn't quite a moral stance - though perhaps it should be - I just think this site mashes peoples heads and desiccates their hearts and I'm eager to see what mine will be like without it.

First time in 13 years but going to sign off of this place for a while - hopefully a long while. Not convinced my feed represents much except algorithmically-boosted cruelty, from the owner/CTO on down. Talking about science in this environment feels too hard, even perverse.

Do come along and pass on to others who might be interested ๐Ÿ‘. The work that Jesรบs and his team are doing is quite remarkable, combining a first-class neuropsychiatric service - covering a huge geographical area - with scrupulous phenomenological attention to detail.
