I mean there were actually two “intelligence” explosions for humans, once as Homo Erectus like 2 million years ago. Then again as Homo Heidelbergensis ~ 700,000 years ago. So way before dogs.
As in we have evidence of H. Erectus with brains as big or even bigger than ours. And by the time of H. Heidelbergensis our brains stabilised around the size they are today.
Dogs 100% were selectively bred to be permanently juvenile as well.
Dogs have extreme neonatal characteristics. They are basically forever-wolf-puppies.
Their heads are rounder, eyes bigger, proportions more exaggerated, more playful etc. etc.
And we actually know the main brain difference between wolves and dogs is that dogs don’t mature basically ever neurologically.
Wolves are in basically every way smarter than dogs.
We dumbed down wolves and made them babies forever.
Our biggest rivals for millennia.
We are… fucked up.
Anyways love puppies ❤️
My dad has the same issue and my girlfriend also had. I was able to help her, he is a lost cause.
But honestly it’s really basic. Just don’t yell while sneezing. Sneeze without vocalising at all. Even if it’s “strong”, it won’t be nearly as loud.
This is just like “muscle memory”. You one day started yelling while sneezing, and it became subconscious.
If you consciously try to not do it every time you sneeze, that too will become subconscious and “muscle memory”.
Our* toothbrush, comrade.
That it’s very easy for far-right parties to win under bourgeois democracy. That the center (right or left) will always side with the fascists. That the ruling class will quickly change to their side at the first sign of a mass left movement. That mass campaigns of violence against minorities will be overlooked, and far-right militias and mobs will be allowed to enact their own twisted justice on minorities, while authorities look to the side.
I… feel like I’m describing basically what is happening right now all over the “west”. So… yeah. It’s not something we can stop until we take power. The people in power will always side with the fascists, against us.
I didn’t claim anything tho..?
Lol like that makes any difference?
That’s not so true nowadays. Skilled factory workers already make a good salary in China nowadays. Like better than any other “global south” country at least. And by cost of living, better than the US probably tbh.
I gotta say I never “love” Kady, but I do love all the others in different points. They change a lot. Some I love all the way, like Elliot. Some are harder at the start but get much better at the end, like Penny.
I do love them all as characters all the way through tho, even Kady. She’s just a bit triggering for me lol, always storming out of places, never being able to talk… and by the end when she starts to get better in that regard she practically disappears.
But something that I really like about the show is how all of them are at one point or another really unlikable as people. They really just suck sometimes, in major ways. But it makes a lot of sense in the universe, given how magic works etc. I also guess this is one of the reasons many people hate the show and can’t get into it. Like in season 1 most of them are just terrible people hahahaah
Anyways, love The Magicians.
Just finished rewatching The Magicians recently! The last season is so bad and cheesy lol. But I love it still. I’ll never not love Josh. I don’t know if you are at his introduction yet, but it’s so good, I always laugh so hard.
Currently I’m rewatching The Expanse. I’m having the same reaction, from the first season. Like I don’t remember anything basically, it’s great hahah
Lmao I’m a troll because I don’t agree with you? You don’t even believe what you believe based on evidence. Just articles, just wild stories of people being mandated to cry, having to push trains, eating rats etc. Things any normal person would see and think “wait a minute, that’s insane, no way that’s real!”. But you people in the imperial core seem to be allergic to skepticism, when it comes to the mouthpieces of the empire at least.
Just to get you started, here’s a comedy video lol: https://youtu.be/2BO83Ig-E8E?si=SaTq3UXwApKiJecU
If that makes you go “huh ok that’s not what I thought”, I can also give you some texts to read.
But all in all, the DPRK is a normal country. With normal people. And really a relatively normal government. It had peculiarities, but those are explained by history more than anything. It’s not 1984, it’s not a hellhole. It’s just a country.
Also it says a lot about you when all I’ve said so far was that, that the DPRK is just a normal country, and you call me troll for it…
Willie will forever be my GOAT.
