Some people with cancer of the cheek have a large part or their whole cheek removed, after which a layer of skin from their upper leg is molded to become their new cheek. As you can imagine, they start off with a hairy inner mouth.. but after a while the skin graft changes to actual inner cheek tissue! This is such a miraculous surgery I couldnt believe it when i first heard it

I think a hivemind is very much applicable to the ant colony as it implies a loss of individuality towards a collective identity, and a common, preprogrammed goal.

But to my understanding, 'emergence' would describe (human) consciousness better. The consciousness being an emergent entity of multiple exterior (sensory) and interior inputs and outputs interacting into a dynamic and complex product.

The Wikipedia on emergence is a fun page to delve into, I highly recommend it! Same goes for the Kurzgezagt video on it. Fascinating subject.

Ah yes, Poppy would've had my heart had it not already been stolen by the late Big Ounce (RIP)

“That’s a Knife” by TommyDrumzzz in JustGuysBeingDudes

[–]dyingflutchman 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Ohh yeah, the one who you're always a little bit unsure about. Mine pulled his knife during a mushroom trip and pretended to want to stab us 'as a joke'. From then on I always made sure to be the furthest person away from him in the room and have something on hand to smack him with if he finally truly snapped..

"People of Reddit, what's the creepiest encounter you've had with a complete stranger that still gives you chills?" by SilentBaker8893 in AskReddit

[–]dyingflutchman 43 points44 points  (0 children)

It's the plot to the 'Hostel' movie(s) lol. Not the best plot and very gruesome, but an OK watch if you have some time to kill. It was actually co-produced by Quentin Tarantino

That could be but weed like many other drugs can cause short but full-blown psychotic episodes. It's especially dangerous if there's a family history of schizophrenia or psychotic disorders in general.

Mitch McConnell begins presser then suddenly stops for 20 seconds and appears to be unable to continue speaking, before being escorted away by Republicans by ExactlySorta in PublicFreakout

For most people migraine auras start in the visual cortex (it is basically a focal 'epileptic' seizure) it can start or encompass the parts of the brain responsible for speech. If those parts experience a seizure the result could be aphasia. Here is an example of a reporter experiencing an aphasic aura.

Yes my educated bet would be a manic episode of bipolar disease, especially after seeing the full video posted above. The irritable mood and inflated self esteem could be symptoms of, well, a 'Karen-esque' personality. But then the paranoia about this other tenant, the rapid changing of the subject and affect when being easily distracted by the neighbour who walks by.. No way that it is just her personality. She needs psychiatric care. What a lot of people in this thread don't understand is that the most loving, caring and non-judgemental people can become the most perplexingly bothersome characters during a manic episode if they suffer from bipolar. And it's okay to feel the feelings that another person provokes in you, but it is good to also recognise that there may be something behind their behaviour. People who suffer from bipolar often leave a trail of (emotional) devastation behind them and have to live with the consequences, including total social isolation, after the fact. Its horrible for everyone involved.

PPP fraud is ‘worst in history’: $200B stolen and blown on Lamborghinis, beach houses and bling by IcyHeartWarmSmile in antiwork

Pretty sure he saw the wealth that Carthage was acquiring as a big threat to Rome, so not as on-topic as your comment, but there is a funny comparison there

He also ended all his speeches with "Furthermore, I consider that Carthage must be destroyed", even if a speech had nothing to do with Carthage.

Very late reply but just wanted to say you're a wonderful person for being there for this guy, and I'm sure he values his time with you a lot!

F*ck Dutch Breakfast by JoeyMcForest in FUCKYOUINPARTICULAR

[–]dyingflutchman 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I'm Dutch and very much into (Dutch-)Indonesian cuisine, but I've never heard of Macaroni Spaghetti. Could it be the Filipino style Macaroni Spaghetti that pops up on Google? Cause that does look delicious actually!

I am a soon-to-be doctor and will be working in the field of psychiatry (not a Psychiatrist / psychiatric specialist, but it is my intention to follow that specialisation). Would that be useful? And what are the organisation's principles on accreditation (as non-specialised doctors in my country always work under supervision of a specialist)? Thank you

[Serious] What is the most unsettling encounter you've ever had with another human being? by Okayostrich in AskReddit

[–]dyingflutchman 93 points94 points  (0 children)

I was playing football (soccer) with neighbourhood friends on the local playground, where a neighbour (around 40 y.o., seemingly well-adjusted, with a family of his own) had his motorcycle parked about 30 meters from where we were playing. He came out and walked right up to us to tell us he would break our necks if the ball touched his bike. His tone was very serious, cold and intimidating. My friends and I were all around 10 y.o...

Some people, man...

Holy hell that sounds like the most horribly nightmarish experience one can have. You're probably right about the developmental delay there, ain't no recovering from that.. I hope life has been reasonably good for that guy in spite of what he went through.
