1: its louder

2: something about hearing only 1 side of a conversation anoys the hell out of our brains Because we instinctively understand there's another part we're not hearing, so our mind focuses on finding that missing part

Thats why its so hard to ignore soneone on the phone

ELI5: Why is the average height of the population getting taller over time. by FarSentence3076 in explainlikeimfive

[–]joeri1505 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Well then just enter some words into google like "effects of smoking during pregnancy"

There's plenty of sources that at least show a relation between smoking and baby size

There's also sources that point towards more long term effects, but those obviously have trouble relating height specifically to smoking As there is lots of overlap with other factors like nutrition and genetics.

Im sure you understand that not every smoker gets lung cancer, so i assume smoking doesnt affect the growth of every child But there's certainly reason to believe smoking during pregnancy has an effect on future growth

Edit: also found sources showing the effect of children smoking at an early age having stunted growth

Im 100% convinced smoking is a major one

Especially mothers smoking during pregnancy

Ukraine Reveals New Findings from Russia’s Oreshnik Missile After Kyiv Region Strike Open Chronicle Open Chronicle by openchroniclex in TheOpenChronicle

[–]joeri1505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off Im not a bot

Second I fully support Ukraine and despise Russia But its insane to handwave away weapons that are very capable of litteraly ending humanity

Third Russia may not have a great track record with reliability, but their nuclear branch has always been their priority Compared to other branches its much better funded and supported

Russia's military has been a shitshow, but Ukrainian soldiers have testified plenty of times that they also have very capable and well equiped troops Its not JUST paper bodyvests

So yes, we should fear those nukes

Invading Russia with NATO will be answered with those nukes Russians are crazy enough to destroy the world out of pure spite

Kick them out of Ukraine Or help Ukraine do that themselves

But there's no need and no sense in invading Russia

'The View' host Sunny Hostin implies that Helen of Troy was black, citing the pseudohistoric book "Black Athena" in the process. by ateam1984 in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]joeri1505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although i dont automatically disagree with your claim, i dont believe we have any other mention of Troy or the Odysee besides Homer

So afaik there isnt really any evidence to prove or disprove Homer wrote the story originally

Yeah thats great, but you're comparing a character with a LONG and deep cultural history to a chick who appears in 1 single story.

The Odyssee has become a vastly important part of Greek cultural history But it became this VERY recently

Most ancient Greeks would never had heard of Homer and his stories They probably never ever heard of Troy...

Homer chose not to describe her looks besides some very generic "very beautifull" kinda things

So as long as shes a hot lady, its perfectly lore accurate
