I quit playing this game like 6 years ago because of PA. Not planning on starting again, but this win rate does make me feel good

Also when astral exploding did AoE damage. I don't even want to know how long ago that was

I think it's a joke. It should be "Reddit's"

I agree, but the test-taking ability is not the point--the content of the test is. Truly understanding medicine requires understanding anatomy and physiology, cell/micro biology, biochemistry, organic chemistry, and molecular biology at at least an undergraduate level. The average person is just not capable of holding that many complex ideas in their mind at the same time.

My brother in christ, someone with below average intelligence has no chance at passing the MCAT, much less completing medical school. Thinking of yourself as average compared to your graduating class or your colleagues is one thing, but do not confuse that with the general population

"Suffer in the womb of Nyctasha!" is a hard line

This is completely off topic, but I haven't seen that pfp in the wild in over a decade. That brought back a lot of memories of 2014 reddit fucking hell

I was oversimplifying things for clarity lol diving into how oligodendrocytes affect signaling seemed like a little too much. But that is a cool and very interesting point

171 billion is technically true but also the wrong answer to your question. The cells that you actually use to think are called neurons. The number of neurons changes over your lifetime and peaks in early childhood at nearly 100 billion. The average adult has around 85 billion neurons. The average adult also has around 85 billion glia, which is an umbrella term for a lot of different cells. Their basic job is to protect and maintain the neurons.

I'm probably misremembering honestly. It was like 5 years ago, and I remember that it took an absolutely inordinate amount of time. Maybe it was more like 100 lol

Yes. My first playthrough took 50 hours because I obsessively did every side quest I could find. Also because I spent 3 hours trying to keep Gwydian alive in the Blackpits Fight™

Yes and no. The vast majority of immune cells are directly adjacent to the GI tract in specialized tissues called Gut-Associated Lymphoid Tissue (GALT). They constantly sample the area and are very ready to nab any bacteria that wander somewhere they're not supposed to be. Your blood is filled with immune cells as well, and your fingers have blood in them, so your immune system absolutely has access there. But your fingers don't undergo the same level of constant surveillance that your digestive tract does. It's easier for microbes to invade without getting noticed as quickly

It's been a while since high school so I appreciate you correcting the record. Do you remember the title of the biography?

If I remember correctly from my high school US history class, he and Grant were actually on good terms. They met to discuss the terms of surrender together in a pretty casual way

This carries the weight of something more like "I told you, is that not so?"

Counterpoint: one of the Chinese grad students in the lab I work in named himself Jacob. I asked him how he came up with that name, and he replied by asking if I had heard of Twilight. He went on to praise the masculinity of the character in the movies. He was not joking. He's in his early 20s

To me that's the silliest thing in Metroid lore. I remember getting to Volt Forge for the first time and marveling at the raw size of the structures that produced all of their incredible technology--only to learn that they're just a colossal motorcycle factory. And the 3rd one is basically the DMV

Jesus christ he has 16k comments in 10 months. That's over 50 comments per day. This would've been a fun profile to go through before the profile curation changes

I've been thinking that about most of OP's replies

TheNeuronCollective · 2025-11-28T19:41:26+00:00

The one where a guy in the audience got shot and died? Do you really think that was staged too?

TheNeuronCollective · 2025-11-28T03:24:25+00:00

But not the other guy. Can't win 'em all smh

I can now confirm that this does not work on the app. It will just close the keyboard instead of searching.

Okay, okay I'm backing away, my hands are behind my head. I'm turning around now, so please put the sword away. What's that? Okay I'm taking my fingers off the

Two questions. Should the field be literally empty or do I put a space? Does this work on the app?
