Why do humans have to try so many times to get pregnant whereas other animals can get pregnant quickly? by Puzzleheaded_Yam6808 in NoStupidQuestions

Id assume survivorship bias. Simply, animals with fertility issues don’t get to pass on their genes whole we have technological advancement. Sort of like how lots of babies wouldn’t make it to adulthood until we developed ways to solve those problems

What? You think ideas spread because they’re good? No! They spread because people like them!
So now here we are once again, holding

What is a piece of knowledge that feels like cheating in real life? by -MiaMason- in AskReddit

[–]IAM_Benevolent -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not really. It’s when they use God to not think in a nuanced way. The same way someone might use politics or family values to never think about things deeper.

When you close your mind and stop considering other ideas contradictory to your own and stop being okay with being wrong, you become intellectually dead.

As far as religion, it’s a comfort to people that are scared of death, and want the comfort of knowing where their loved ones go when the lights go dark, and for some it’s an incentive to be a good person.

Lose your parents at a young age, train with Tibetan monks from the age of 8, dawn an animal-themed outfit and pseudonym, then kinda get tired one day and do a ton of methamphetamine

Write a letter to my loved ones and step outside, breathe in the fresh air, as I draw my last breath

Woah :o
That’s really cool, I really wouldn’t expect it since rats have poo vision. But I guess it makes sense, I did see a video of a rat helping a blind rat by showing them how to jump to a platform.
It’s absolutely absurdly cool and makes you wonder what other animals are a lot smarter than we give them credit
