Wow, I didn’t know luchadors could make it past 500.

Is the preview picture… not showing a shark to anyone else? I clicked on the article and didn’t see this picture there either.

I’m not surprised. I forget when I looked up the research, but several hair typed definitely don’t need shampoo as much as people think they do. That we have another product (conditioner) yo undo the damage shampoo does to out hair is astounding.

As for the overall bathing thing, I agree. It depends on what you do day to day, your environment, and genetics. With all three of those factors, some people need to bath more often than others need to.

Most of my washing routine is actually for chronic pain. I don’t need to scrub for smell too much, but hot water feels good on pained areas.

That’s interesting. I never would have thought of this. I use two hands to button and never considered what side anything was on. Perhaps because I have both men’s and women’s shirts?

I thought this was an Onion article for a moment.

I feel sorry for her future coworkers, but at the same time? I like when people have to live the perspective of the people they treat badly. I hope this teaches her a lesson.

It’s Chipotle.

Scientists discover racism: more news at eleven.

We are awful with human to human communication and AI hasn't helped with that. We need the technology (or straight up common sense) to get humans to listen to and watch other animals, more than talk. (Yes, I'm being nitpicky about the headline.)

Let alone beings which use smells to communicate. That one I'll need a lot of help with. My sense of smell is awful just in comparison to other human beings.

It took scientists forever to say animals might have feelings. Meanwhile, anyone who has spent any time with animals already knows this.

In other news: time does nothing new. Scientists shocked by decomposition.

I wish this site wasn't so hard to read. Anyway, as much as I love history, I was more taken by the photographs of nature which would load.

Maybe it's more accurate to refer to vanishing twin syndrome?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Sounds like a part of Imposter syndrome. “My problems aren’t that bad”, but if someone else had the same problems? You would recognize it as it is. Only when they are your problems do you decide you shouldn’t feel as bad about them.

It is fascinating how they have used this evidence to find a place previously considered "fabled".

However, this part of the article absolutely slays me:

The baboon is the only animal not native to Egypt that is linked with Egyptian deities, Kopp said, and it's a little odd that ancient Egyptians took such interest in baboons. They tend to steal crops and break into homes looking for food, making them difficult to live with, she said.

"The people who coexist with baboons don't really like them," Kopp told Live Science.
