stimming
Part of speech: noun
Morphological type: simple
Inflected forms:
Senses:
gloss: Self-stimulation, especially in the context of autism, ADHD, and neurodivergence.
pos: noun
tags: uncountable
examples: If you think about it, most of us, from time to time, do typical or what we might call “normal” stimming-type behaviors like drumming our fingers on a desk; wiggling or tapping a pencil; pacing back and forth; bouncing a knee up and down; twirling a lock of hair; or even humming. The difference between “normal” stimming and autistic stimming, is how often it occurs and what kind of stim activity is chosen.
Medical culture constrains stimming through strict clinical designations and pathologizing definitions, referring to it as stereotypies or "self-stimulatory behaviours." Autistic people, however, often define stimming more broadly as repetitive sensory practices used to regulate emotional states, to cope with external sensory stimuli, or for purposes of self-expression.
Forty-six percent of Autistic adults who underwent ABA therapy as kids report having Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) as a result of the experience. Many experience deep shame even naming the subjects they feel passionate about, because they’ve been punished for having special interests. Some are unable to appreciate the emotional and psychological benefits of fidgeting or stimming because the importance of having “quiet hands” was so deeply drilled into them.
In psychiatry, stereotypy is part of the diagnostic criteria for autism of “stereotyped or repetitive motor movements’’, theorized as a form of self-stimulation, or stimming. Movement that is considered excessive or ill fitting to the setting, whether repetitive or not, is considered hyperactivity, part of diagnostic criteria for attention hyperactivity deficit disorder (ADHD). In response to this pathologization, critical scholars and neurodiversity advocacy groups (e.g., Loud Hands Project Autistic Self Advocacy Network (ASAN), 2012) have reclaimed the medical term “stimming,” celebrating stimming as an expression of autistic embodied experience and identity, not only self-regulatory but also political, aesthetic, and communicative.

...the statement of Apost. Const. vi. 8, that his ordination was Pauline, rather than Petrine, according to the competing traditions of St. Epiphanus and Rufinus, in which case he is the particular link in the Pauline succession.
And thus, in this connection, is intruded upon us the narrative in the Petrine Gospel, which afterwards became famous, and according to which the Cross was borne to heaven with Christ at the Ascension.
At the same time the tinctures of the reversed Petrine cross on the field and the chief changed from red to blue.

examples: a mesne lord
Thus all the land in the kingdom is supposed to be holden, mediately or immediately, of the sovereign, who is styled the lord paramount, or above all. Such tenants as held under the crown immediately, when they granted out portions of their lands to inferior persons, became also lords with respect to those inferior persons, as they were still tenants with respect to the king; and, thus partaking of a middle nature, were called mesne, or middle, lords. So that if the king granted a manor to A., and he granted a portion of the land to B., now B. was said to hold of A., and A. of the king ... A. was both tenant and lord, or was a mesne lord : and B. was called tenant paravail, or the lowest tenant; being he who was supposed to make avail or profit of the land.
gloss: A mesne lord.
