My eye doctor told me I needed a progressive lens prescription. Now all I see are good people!
Scientific fraud is the most baffling thing ever to me like do they think they're just going to make a huge breakthrough and no one will notice that it's fake by trying to replicate their results
whimsy is a virtue I think. one of the more important ones, especially if you're about to embark on a serious undertaking. and when things are getting distinctly unwhimsical in a situation it's generally a sign you ought to make yourself scarce.
One of the reasons black coffee is posited to be beneficial is because it upregulates glucoronidation, which is a phase II metabolism reaction involving the covalent addition of glucuronic acid—triggering an elimination and detoxification mechanism for lipophilic compounds. Additionally, since glucuronides are charged, this also triggers the excretion of the parent compounds in urine and bile. tl;dr black coffee triggers enzymes, increases metabolism, burns fat, and causes the body to excrete various things that are posited to potentially harm us in some circumstances.
If we think hard and cooperate with one another, we can make Slytherin great again, but only if we try really, really hard.
The economics of the band-aid industry hinges almost entirely on the suffering of small children
One of the most boring forms of discourse is when two opposing sides are like, "They're hypocrites!" "No, they're the hypocrite!"
Vegetarians/vegans are so annoying when they're like, "There's no way to ethically kill an animal." Like, dude. Have you seen how animals kill each other in nature? Venomous snakes watch their prey cripple from venom, or sometimes Grizzly bears eat their prey alive (there are endless examples)💀💀 Be happy that the animals we eat are shot or have their throats slit!!
Like Freud, Lacan regards hysteria as one of the two main forms of neurosis, the other being obsessional neurosis. Whereas obsessional neurosis concerns the question of the subject's existence, hysteria concerns the question of the subject's sexual position. This question may be phrased "Am I a man or a woman?" or, more precisely, "What is a woman?" Lacan thus reaffirms the ancient view that there is an intimate connection between hysteria and femininity. Indeed, most hysterics are women, just as most obsessional neurotics are men. The structure of desire, as desire of the Other, is shown more clearly in hysteria than in any other clinical structure; the hysteric is precisely someone who appropriates another's desire by identifying with them.
Today I learned that in pre-Columbian, pre-Hispanic cultures like the Aztec, women and children were frequently sacrificed. Parents often authorized the sacrifice of their own children. Some even ate their own children.
