neuroverse

noun - a concept that celebrates the diversity of how human brains function and process the world. It represents an inclusive community where neurodivergent individuals—those with conditions like ADHD, OCD, ASD, learning disabilities, etc.—can connect with one another - to realize it is a shared experience. The neuroverse highlights that differences in thinking, learning, and behaving are not deficits but part of the natural spectrum of human experience, fostering a sense of belonging and collaboration among its members
You belong to the neuroverse? Me too!

Neurodisabled

Any brain-related disability at all. Epilepsy, autism, OCD, ADHD, FASD, cluster B disorders, PTSD, and much more. It places a heavy emphasis on the importance of one's identity as a medically disabled person, rather than the identity politics of the neurodiversity movement. Any person diagnosed with a brain-related disorder is considered disabled in this community.

Disabilities can be minor, moderate, or severe. It does not matter how little or how much your disability impacts you; you do not get a special title deeming you as a non-disabled person. If you meet enough requirements for a professional diagnosis of a disability, you are, therefore, impacted enough to be considered disabled.
Person 1: "Do you see that person over there? I think they're neurodivergent."

Person 2: "That person identifies as neurodisabled. They prefer their disorders to be purely seen as medical disabilities, rather than social or simply diverging from the norm."

Neurospicy

A "funny" form of Neurotypical mostly used by white millennial women with ADHD and self diagnosed autism.

Groups that use this word often see autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders as simply being "wired differently" and believe that neurodivergent people are monolith that exists completely outside of the "neurotypical experience".
While it can be used by some as a way to cope with the struggles and trauma that come from autism, ADHD, OCD, etc

Not everyone cares for this and many find it offensive and patronizing.
Refer to your neurodivergent friends this way and prepare to be hit with a chair.
Chelsey: Heyyyy my fellow neurospicies ^_^ that feeling when you are thinking and keep going from one thought to the next! AuADHD moment! Haha it must be sooo boring to be neurotypical 🤣🤣🤣 #proud neurospicy

Neurocist

(Adj.) Characterized by someone who Shows Prejudice, Discrimination, or Antagonism against a person or people on the basis of having a Neurodivergency (such as Autism Spectrum Disorder).
A politicians recent comments on Autism Spectrum Disorder were seen as Neurocist by the Autism Spectrum Community.

Neuropredictive Art Synchrony (NAS)

A cognitive-
phenomenological state where art serves as a stabilizing force against the brain's constant predictive modeling, creating a reality that transcends mere perceptual guesses.

This occurs through neural synchrony between the artwork and the observer, leading to a flow state in which perception and reality momentarily align without the interference of unconscious predictive distortions.
This term encapsulates the idea that while our brains normally operate on predictive coding-leading to a reality built on probabilistic guesses-art creates a space where experience is direct, immersive, and unmediated by the brain's
anticipatory errors. Through neurolinking, art and audience enter a shared state of synchrony, forming a temporary "true" reality that isn't just Other predictive hallucinstion
"In the year 2147, elite curators of the Intergalactic Archive relied on Neuropredictive Art Synchrony (NAS) to decode alien murals—translating neural echoes into visual patterns only perceivable through synchronized consciousness."

Neurohistory

An emerging interdisciplinary field that seeks to understand historical change through the lens of the human brain’s evolving biology, cognitive biases, and emotional responses. It asks: How did the hardwired need for status, our fear of the “other,” or the brain’s response to environmental scarcity shape the rise of feudalism, religious movements, or economic systems? It grounds the why of history in the how of the human neural processor.
Example: “A neurohistory of the Crusades wouldn’t just cite theology; it’d examine how the promise of salvation hijacked the brain’s reward system, how the scarcity of land triggered territorial aggression circuits, and how the vivid, fear-based imagery of preaching activated amygdalas across Europe, mobilizing masses in ways abstract political arguments never could.”

Neuropsychohistory

The speculative, ultimate synthesis: a discipline that would combine the large-scale statistical prediction of psychohistory with the brain-based mechanisms of neurohistory. It would model how shifts in collective neurobiology—driven by diet, trauma, technology, or drugs—alter the statistical probabilities of civilizational futures. It’s the dream of predicting macro-history by understanding the macro-brain.
Example: “The paper on ‘Neuropsychohistory and the Social Media Singularity’ argued that platform algorithms, by optimizing for outrage (which triggers high-engagement amygdala responses), were systematically rewiring mass political behavior on a planetary scale, creating predictable cycles of polarization and populism. It wasn’t just observing trends; it was trying to build a predictive model of history based on the hijacking of our neural reward pathways.”
