When the great pyramids were being built there was still woolly mammoths walking the earth.
There is no thru line from mouth to urethra. You drink water, it gets absorbed into your blood, your urinary system filters excess water and waste, you pee it out. Your pee is filtered blood, the only thru line for water to take from your mouth is your ass. I understood that when it was taught, but I didn’t really think about it…
Piss comes from blood!
Does the blood god accept pee? Your move, “science”!
Humans can’t feel wet, what we’re actually feeling is cold. It’s why when you have a cold patch on a blanket or carpet you can’t quite figure out if it’s wet or not.
When Mount Vesuvius erupted, the heat of it turned a man’s brain to glass.
Useless knowledge.
When playing Mechwarrior 2 on a Windows 2000 system, make sure to change your video mode to 32bit color.
I’ll throw in a useful tip too!
You can buy USB foot switches for your computer and assign keystrokes and other functions to them.
Almost feels like cheating when you are playing a tactical shooter and can lean left or right and strafe on demand without crossing any controls. Having microphone activation, map, inventory, or any number of misc actions boud to a foot pedal makes a huge difference in your ability to play a game.
Probably more difficult if you have pets
Nah, my snakes don’t really mess with the foot pedals.
I don’t know. Sounds kind of useful to me.

Pigs can’t look directly upwards. Neither can we, when standing on all fours. This is because ours and pigs necks are constructed in the same way.
You can’t lick your elbows.
Not with that attitude.
The people who got anime to take off in the US are the same people who started the furry fandom.
The Superman symbol was based off of the symbol for a sci fi fan club.
Conventions, and sci fi as we know it, are because of one electronics magazine.
It’s possible to define an infinite sequence whose nth term must exist before it’s first.
do it now…
Let $\mu(x)=0$ if $\exists y<x\mu(y)=0$ or $x$ is the 20 millionth prime. $\mu(x)=\mu(x+1)+1$ otherwise. The elements of the sequence only become defined once the 20 millionth prime is found; till then they’ve yet to be constructed.
Bonus: The sequence $\nu$ is defined as follows.
Let $\nu(x)=0$ if $\exists y\leq x\mu(y)$ is perfect. $\nu(x)=\nu(x+1)+1$ otherwise.
We’re not sure if this is a sequence, even though it is algorithmically definable. Its existence relies on the existence of an odd perfect number.

Our ability to feel social judgment and shame reuses the same neural circuits as physical disgust or nausea. This effectively makes it so you can take anti-nausea medication to temporarily make you less judgy of other people’s life choices.

With vanishingly rare exception, addicts choose the mood altering substance that is closest to what the medically accepted treatment for their underlying disorder(s) would be.
People who are addicted to alcohol, without exception, have an underlying anxiety disorder.
People with ADHD and similar brain functioning tend to choose amphetamines.
The list goes on and it gets very complicated, because most mood altering substances have multiple effects, and most people have a blend of underlying issues. But the point is, there is a very noteworthy observation there, I feel.
I feel qualified to say this as myself I am 11 years sober and have worked in the field of addiction for 8 years and I’m formally educated.
People who are addicted to alcohol, without exception, have an underlying anxiety disorder.
People with ADHD and similar brain functioning tend to choose amphetamines.
I feel attacked…
But I liked all of the drugs.
That means you have all of the problems!

Sharks are older than fire! It took billions of years for Earth to get the oxygen levels and fuel (land plants) needed for fire. Earth is the only place in the universe where we have seen fire.
To be fair we can’t see other planets outside the solar system too well.
None has the conditions for fire
