did u know the brain has a visual auto-stabilizing system?
So when we walk our vision doesnt "bounce" around so much. The brain "smooths" out the jolting bumps from walking to create smooooooth vision.

My friend recently pointed out to me the uvula in japanese means nodo-chinko. And it finally dawned on him that the english translation is literally.... throat penis.

I've hugged horses, too, but they're more like cats - when they're done with the loving, they just walk away.

I knew about Temple decades ago from Oliver Sacks' books but my friend made an Emmy winning movie about her. When I saw the movie I called her right away and said, "you just won an Emmy". And she did. Claire Danes played Temple.
It really was an awesome movie. Emily deserved it .
Wow. Even a "hug machine" for cows, LOL! That's cool!

The question, whats that last 1%....
Dust makes you fat (to dumb it down for the general public).
It has been shown that common household dust particles tend to accumulate aromatic polybrominated flame retardants among other chemicals that acts as ligands and in many cases agonists of the human PPARγ receptor that in turn drives adipogenesis. The amounts ingested by humans are relevant to these effects.
Can you explain for those of us who are both dumb enough to not know what that means, and lazy enough to not look it up?

Oh man... I GOTTA PICK JUST ONE? I'm about to make the longest run-on sentence ever. I could publish a book series of interesting but ultimately pointless facts.
Taking into account every single organism that needed to exist for you to be born the odds of you existing is roughly 1 in 10^(2,685,000). To put this in perspective the universe contains only 10^(80) atoms
Ok....Im about to ruin my own fact but if you subscribe to the multiverse theory I think that makes your odds 1 in 1...now it's even more pointless fact surrounded by pointless doubt. Can this get any less useful...

Post em all!
I don't know if anyone's thought about this before, but you wouldn't exist if only ONE of your great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great grandparents had died before giving birth.
Come to think of it, we all probably exist by the pure chance that one of the great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great grandparents husband or wife died, and they remarried into the lineage that eventually became you.

Oh I couldn't begin to take a side on that and I love time travel paradox plots like Continuum (TV show), Donny Darko, basically all of them but the one everybody knows... Another pointless fact, they made 3 of those terrible movies.

Maybe in an existential nihilistic way. Otherwise I disagree.

Did you get a degree, Wiccan or are you an autodidact?
I suppose I could have asked that in the ask Wiccan thread.

I'm an autodidact. I got a degree in adolescent psychosis which prohibited me any further study.

A lot of ten dollar words being used here huh? Let's see if my sesquipedalian loquaciousness is tangential to this orthogonal coververgance of wordsmithery... Ok that last word was actually made up.
