    I’m clearly not able to officially diagnose this person. Please understand I’m just shooting off the cuff on Lemmy, where everyone else here is like “hey everyone, laugh at the crazy guy.” Imo those are the people you should be directing your ire at.

    In my experience, this sort of goal directed activity and paranoid scrawlings are much more likely to be the result of severe mania with psychosis than schizophrenia, delusional disorder, or schizophreniform disorder, where disorganization and amotivation are more likely to occur and lead someone to be “stuck” rather than decorate an entire vehicle and drive it around town.

    I saw Cry Baby and loved it, and thought “Pink Flamingos is so famous, it must be great too!” I was disturbed. At what point are you just pushing the envelope for pushing the envelope’s sake? Or was that just a documentary about Baltimore












    1. Create habitat for lightning bug larvae. Set aside parts of your yard to go undisturbed, leave the leaf litter there year-round, leave a couple logs out to rot, plant a few woody perennials there to provide some shade and retain moisture. You can do this and still also retain some lawn, if you want to.

    2. Turn off the lights outside your house. You don’t need that floodlight on all night. Get a motion sensor if it’s important enough to you. The artificial light disrupts their mating cycle, meaning the next generation in your yard will be smaller or non-existent. Reducing outdoor lighting also helps migrating birds find their way more effectively and allows you to see more stars.

    3. Never use pesticides, ever. Also tell your neighbors about how yard treatments intended to kill mosquitoes are much more effective at killing lightning bugs and bees than mosquitoes. The company selling you a mosquito treatment will straight-up lie to you about this.

    Ok, but this has pretty much nothing to do with unexplained disappearances, especially given the large homeless populations in other cities that are not showing on here. But really, this map cannot be relied on since we have no idea where the data is derived from, and we can barely even see it due to the poor resolution
