Mine has amazing comedic timing and great inflection, he’s very expressive. I have full conversations with him sometimes its just the best.

I swear my cat understands english, I’ll tell him something like “no cookies until bed time” then right when I’m getting ready for bed he’s meowing by the cookie drawer. They do something every day that surprises me with their intelligence.

ahh the french paradox! Lots of wine, fatty food and super low heart disease!

Theres a pretty strong link between financial health and mental/physical well-being

tabernac!

I 100% agree, I’ve adblocked all my devices and refuse to be advertised to in general. I only commented this because I’m at my parent’s house watching cable with them and those are the only ads I’m ever exposed to.

Theres a difference between goofy and actually funny/smart. The goof stuff is just cringe and offputting.

I miss funny ads. Everything is so sanitized and boring, bring the humour back! If you want my attention or business get creative! make me remember!

This would fit right in in Control

I always assumed we follow school/driving rules, always stay on the right. I live in Toronto and I’ve noticed the sidewalks and bike lanes just devolve into a free-for-all. Or when a group of 5 all take up the entire sidewalk and theres no where for anyone to go.

Hudson bay liquidation be like

same. My field is biology but I love stars, planets, black holes, all that primordial shit you can just inject it straight into my veins I can’t get enough. I took an astronomy elective in university and it was pretty fun.

I was going to comment that too its just an amino acid, we’re made out of the stuff and so is the cancer so this is a bit of a silly headline.

I’m trying to work things out but I swear its a generational “kids these days” thing. Its a science field with lots of interpretation, judgement, problem solving and troubleshooting too so critical thinking is really important.

This is kind of like saying eating food makes your cancer worse. The tricky thing with cancer is that they are just like regular cells except they are immortal and spreading out of control, but in general things that are good for you/nutritious are also good for cancer/sustain those cells too. For example my dad was on those athletic green multivitamin mixes with all sorts of stuff but one i’ll single out is folate (which is in a lot of stuff and generally good for you). But when he was diagnosed with cancer the first thing they told him was to get off those vitamins since one of the chemo drugs was a folate inhibitor and if he was taking folate supplements it would contradict the treatment. I’m guessing its the same deal here, a regular vitamin thats good for you is also good for the cancer.

And science in general. Those NIH cuts are insane.

space is nuts.

Swimming, it’ll save your life

This grinds my gears super hard. I’ve had a few new hires come through and they can’t do anything unless someone tells them to do something or if its written out step by step. Absolutely no critical thinking, curiosity or even basic understanding of why we’re doing what we’re doing, the job might as well be severance lol. I have no idea whats going on, they interviewed well, had relevant experience and can do the basics but as soon as we have to troubleshoot or use our brains they just go dear in the headlights. Its something thats difficult to train.
