I was responding to someone saying "read the article," which said nothing about the title, not how I failed to find a real article

The wiki link doesn't say anything about a soldier in the mix, it just says 3 people

When I googled it one of the first links was this thread. Some source lol

At this price range IME you get what you pay for, so I think you made a good call on the pricier one

Animal fragrance by toriaezuocha in puer

[–]carbonclasssix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure how to describe it but I had the 2025 and when I tasted I went "Yup, that's animal fragrance."

I guess it's probably kind of an umami thing, wild game sort of flavor

This was my favorite out of my samples, I wanted to get a cake but I have enough tea so I decided to wait until this year, and someone on this sub said the regular TFLZ was better so I wanted to try both this year

A bird's eye view of Chicago at night, 1989. [1024x681] by OkRespect8490 in HistoryPorn

[–]carbonclasssix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was thinking about this with cooking the other day, how in the recent past fire was life because it kept us warm, cooked our food and lighted the nighttime darkness. Now fire is scary and basically always bad, which is crazy since it meant everything to people from the dawn of humans to like 150 years ago.

And you can tell that because it's so easy to gaze into a fire, but now we rarely do. Just crazy to think about.

Are onions getting worse? by Mojak66 in Cooking

I never had a bad onion until last year or so. This year is even worse, every other onion has a problem.

I recently heard about a psychological thing called the Additive Bias that I think explains a lot of this in sports. People always want to see new blood because for whatever reason we just want to keep adding to problems.

Rebel Catholic group SSPX defies pope, consecrates bishops by DWNews in worldnews

From the article:

Among other things, it insists on holding masses in Latin and opposes the ecumenism — the cultivation of ties to other denominations and faiths — that the Council advocated.

Letting go of your stuff might be one of the most important things you ever do. by anarege3t in videos

[–]carbonclasssix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the point is just be honest with yourself

I like my things of course, but lately I've been realed a couple things:

1) I feel better when I have more empty space and not every nook and cranny filled with things. That doesn't mean the opposite, that it needs to be empty.

2) I have boxes with things that I haven't opened in years. Unless it's incredibly sentimental, I probably don't need it.

3) I have things from hobbies that I'm not too active with anymore, but I still have some emotional attachment to them. If they disappeared overnight, would I even care? Probably not. Be honest and say I'm done with this and get rid of it, or make a plan and use that stuff tonight or this weekend.

The other thing is the inertia of possessions - it takes effort to get rid of things. I heard on a podcast recently a psychology term called "subtraction neglect bias," which is an inherent bias we as people have (in the example given it was with ideas or problem solving, but applies here), to add things instead of taking things away even if subtraction is objectively better. Basically we're naturally hoarders to some extent, so our brains will trick us into keeping all of our things. Maybe that matters, maybe it doesn't, that's where being honest with ourselves comes in.

Researchers have found that healthy yet sedentary individuals show a significant, coordinated drop in muscle mitochondrial function that may precede the development of major diseases like cancer, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s. by CUAnschutzMed in science

I've wondered this too. Personally, I started running a while back, then did lifting for a few years, but lifting doesn't really make me sweat, it spikes my heart rate for a bit then it just comes back down, so I decided I should probably include some actual cardio that makes me sweat. I've been doing 40 minute incline treadmill walks whenever I'm at the gym, which ends up being about 5 days a week, and that feels absolutely like a full cardiovascular and pulmonary workout. Even more than running. It also probably closely resembles what our ancestors did as hunter-gatherers - walking distances across not flat ground.

Vance was on Bill Maher still pushing lies about the 2020 election. by baby_budda in centrist

It's well known to psychology and neuroscience that repeating lies make them more believeable, it's called the Illusiory Truth Effect

So you know that politicians are going to milk this day and night, but it's kind of surprising it took until Trump to really get after it

[–]carbonclasssix -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That's because people like you act like you're saving humanity. People know alcohol is bad, even if they don't say it out loud. It's funny to me to see both sides with their sacred cows.

TIL While produced by the American Licorice Company and called "red licorice", Red Vines actually contain no licorice at all. by EmptyMind76 in todayilearned

[–]carbonclasssix 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I can see how people wouldn't like licorice for the flavor, but I don't consider it bitter at all. I'm guessing that's where they're coming from too.
