I always felt dumb but a "real" IQ test given by a psychologist had me at 106. But according to an online test I'm borderline retarded. I guess my slightly above average verbal skills on the official test covered up the fact that I'm a fucking moron. Or years of depression and drugs rotted my brain.

I guess retard IQ was still enough to make money off crypto and meme stocks at least.

You're right I think. I wanted to know what my IQ was, so some anons recommended I find multiple different IQ tests and take those repeatedly every day for a week. By the end I was averaging in the 140s and I know I'm not that smart. Equally, one day I took one of the tests after receiving some particularly bad news and I scored 86, even though my average the day before was 135. This made me think it's all bullshit, you could have somebody grieving take an IQ test and in all odds they'd come out borderline retarded just because they got given the test on a bad day.

How could it be wrong though? The scores are based on the data from users who took the test. I scored below average. I might not have exactly 87 IQ but I'm probably not far off.

I'd give more weight to the actual test. Even so, you mentioned drug use which can lower your IQ but usually not to the level of 106 -> 87 thats more than a full SD.

I'm able to string together coherent sentences and have an average sense of self awareness, but according to the test my ability to detect patterns and logic is rather low, which I feel is accurate based on my real world experience. When I look at those visual puzzles it's like my brain turns into a brick. Part of it is from anxiety .

I could probably figure them out but it takes me twice as long as it should. I'm not going to stop trying to learn stuff but I'm worried about my future prospects.

IQ 122-136 is midwit, where one is so used to being aligned with common sense in an academic setting that they're unable to consider theoretical what-ifs. These are the people that will attempt to shoot down ideas without understanding them because they sound different. IQ 127 is an inside joke for that reason. Many of them truly believe the only difference between IQ 130 and 160 is speed when the difference is likely more qualitatively similar to a child compared to an adult, as can be visually demonstrated with the W-score of the Woodcock Johnson, an absolute Rasch scale of raw ability.

IQ is flexible.
While age does effect neuroplasticity, any brain will develop networks according to environmental stimuli.
When you see people 'break down' they are actually at a moment of extreme(for them) neuroplasticity and are panicknig because it is unfamiliar territory and they may fear they cannot keep up with it or that they will lose what they have already established. As old networks in the brain may be decaying from disuse and new networks formed at a very rapid pace.(Comparitively)
A brain with higher neuroplasticity, or that has frequented states of high neuroplasticity more often, will naturally do better at any event it is unprepared for.
A brain with lower neuroplasticity which has not needed to frequent high plasticity states will not do so well at new things and will usually seek a return to lower effort states with comfortable pathways already formed during any event it is unprepared for.
Therefore, it seems to me, it is most desirable to try new things as frequently as possible to develop the necessary chemical balances and foundational pathways for engaging in high plasticity states in order to be prepared for changes in stimuli.
And, i think, the age-plasticity correlation is due to the way people behave in their later years. Not because of any actual biological limitations on the chemicals necessary for plasticity. There is simply less incentive to try new things as we get older and most become increasingly unhealthy not only because of the effects of age, but the exposure to environmental toxins.

when it shifts 2x from left to right, the white seems to take the shape it replaces, except if it overflows the "ring buffet"
so my theory to fix that is that
first line shift 2x from left to right, overflow on the third, reset size
second line actually shifts 2x from right to left, overflow on third
third line 2x from left to right, overflow on second
so F
