I like to view TikTok as a drug cartel. These recent PR efforts like their toddler reading commercial and this BookTok piece are roughly equivalent to when the drug cartels make a show of supporting the local pueblo with healthcare and oth

I went deep down AOL memory lane about 6-12 months ago, it seems like a lot of us who were influenced by AOL subculture growing up did the same through the pandemic. Some good links for anyone who might want to enter the same rabbit hole:

I had a friend in 2nd or 3rd grade who would stand on the swing seat to use his legs to assist with gaining height and then eventually do a backflip with the chains near parallel. Of course we always begged him to show off this trick every

I like the sports team concept in terms of being a sieve for performance. Similar to HS->College->NFL athletes, elite military SOF groups, etc. You get binned and sometimes that's hard to accept, but that's the point of th

It's a rarely taught and oft forgotten piece of nuclear history that the impetus and conceptual design for the Manhatten project originated from non US citizens outside of the USofA. Is it really forgotten? It's pretty well kno

That is such a wild idea. I wonder if you dance with one eye covered or learn a language solely thru input from right vs. left eye (and ears) would it matter? Or what about musicians like Jimi Hendrix who played their instrument backwards
