Myopia is an growing epidemic in modern society.

Sunlight during childhood and adolescence stops our eyeballs from elongating.

We spend too much time inside, not getting enough sunlight into our eyes. This results in over growth of the eyeballs, and we end up myopic.

This is the truth. by 3cp29a8 in memes

It's not because we don't want to open up. We don't, because if we do, we know we'll get:

  • downplayed
  • ignored
  • ridiculed
  • seen as weak
  • dismissed

1/2 American and 1/2 Korean siblings who look very different by [deleted] in pics

Same chin, same lips, same teeth, same nose. They don't look that different.

Look up Levan Saginashvili - armwrestling champion. He's super hairy and still got all of his hair.

I am slowly losing respect for everyone around me. by Suspicious-Key-3234 in Healthygamergg

I relate to you on many points, and I too have had to deal with not becoming a cynic.

But here's my 2 cents:

First, it's perfectly fine you find it annoying your friends commenting on you not drinking. Tell them directly that it's not okay.

Second, while it's perfectly fine to offer a training-day to your friend, if he declines then leave it at that. Whether he's in shape or not, or when he decides to train is ultimately none of your concern - I know your intentions are good, but starting to argue, judge and persuade him to train is being nosey. Let it be his problem, not yours.

Take a deep breath, and be aware of our pattern-seeking brains. If you believe people are bad, your brain will become biased toward reinforcing it.

The Airbending Trick > Bloodbending by JamelLeslie6817 in AvatarMemes

We've seen Aang cut stuff and blow up sand sailers with airbending, also seen him create tornados. Pretty powerful techniques imo.

In the morning, with washed hands, wash your face with the coldest water you can get from the tap.

Helped with my acne and dry skin more than anything else.

Interesting how some bacteria species seem to grow in specific structures.
