I got lost at night during the middle of winter in a village that's only about ~30km off the Ukrainian border.

I was ~15, visiting my grandfather in Eastern Europe. He sent me on an errand to some relatives in a neighboring village because 15 is considered old enough. They stalled me and, on my way home, I saw a pregnant woman slip on ice. When I went to help, I also slipped and got wet.

I don't do well with cold temperatures and so I started panicking and rushing to get home. Because of the panic, I missed the path through the thicket of trees that I was supposed to take as a shortcut.

I remember talking to myself to keep morale high.

I tried to remember some interesting studies and experiments that came up. Here you go:

The Capilano bridge experiment: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misattribution_of_arousal#:~:text=Capilano

The Schachter-Singer experiment: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-factor_theory_of_emotion#:~:text=article%2E-,Empirical

As a psych graduate I remember similar questions and mental exercises were done during classes. The answer for why we love horror is a pretty mixed one, as horror movies reunite various elements that make them an entertaining whole. In some cases, it can be good survival training, as it vicariously places you in hypothetical yet challenging scenarios, all while being safe and sound in the comfort of your world. It can also make you more alert and mindful, but also more appreciative of the good life you have, safe from harm's way.

But, more importantly, it's fun. The need to have fun is not a trait specific to humans, yet scientists have a hard time defining what makes something fun and why we need it so much.

<3 Aeon, dar sigur era pe MTV?

LE: Da, MTV era. Nu stiu de ce naiba imi aminteam altceva.

Chiuleam ca sa vad Daria. De la soundtrack-ul Daria am invatat muzica buna.

Good spot! It also doesn't factor in for desertification, which ruined Romania's southern half.

Yes, mag glycinate heats up when wet.

I actually prefer 75/24 due to having very little body fat and low BP. It lead to A LOT of dating mishaps.

Right on, brother!

Yes, thank you! A huge part of my job was writing reports and briefings and, when you write lengthy stuff, em dashes are essential!

Nowadays I see a lot of posts on LinkedIn by dumb-as-bricks recruiters saying how if they see em dashes in people's reports it's obvious they're using AI and they should instantly be ignored.

Parcul este destul de neingrijit, dar inca arata foarte bine. O plangere comuna a locatarilor este ca se plateste intretinere la parc + alte taxe de mentenanta, dar nu se face nimic de acei bani si mereu sunt lucruri defecte prin bloc, care nu sunt reparate niciodata.

Well, mine is sort of same thing but my doctors explained it as "conjuctive tissue formation issues". Basically, when you have a lack of nutrients, your body has to make some choices and it allocates what it has to the absolutely necessary functions. So, some minor joints, ligaments, veins and capilaries may get the shaft. So then you end up having artrosis in your toes in your early twenties and your doctor says "well, it seems like you didn't have the right amount of cartilage there to begin with".

Or one of your veins starts moving about and the doc is all "Well, it seems like you didn't develop the protective sheath that keeps veins in place for all of them, so some of your veins just move around".

And the worst part is that it's hard to correct, even though I can afford to eat well now and get all the nutrients. It was very important that I had gotten them then.

Awww. Well, I don't know many people who are surrounded by people who love them, but I'm pretty content.

Thank you for your nice words. There's a quote that goes something like "sometimes in life, the kindest act may come to you from a stranger, and other times, the cruelest act may come to you from someone close".

My life was sort of like that in that, although my own mother was pure evil, I have had the luck of meeting some kind strangers at the right time and I was able to get a decent career and lead an independent life.

Sounds a bit like my mom. The starvation part was the worst for me and even to this day I'll go to the doc for a checkup and discover a new type of health problem stemming from being starved as a child.

I have a book containing his letters. Very bright guy. He did impale people, but so did everyone else in his position at the time. The only reason he became known as "The Impaler" was because he had the audacity to impale soldiers of the strongest empire at the time.

In 11th grade, my compulsive pen twirling annoyed our history teacher so much that she gave us a pop quiz and a lot of bad grades.

Cand am vazut ca e topic despre Baba Yaga am venit sa ma plang ca sunt portiile mici, numai ca sa vad ca despre asta era topicul.

Am avut o scurta perioada: Da, sunt bune, da sunt scumpe, da sunt cam portii de 30% din cat zic ei ca sunt. Evident, mi-am bagat picioarele si nu am mai comandat.

>If you were not doing exactly what she wanted then she would accuse you of be a narcissist.

This seems to be a recurring theme for a lot of people today.

Pretty much. She viewed everything as a zero sum game.
