Yes, skeletons actually do get stronger during strenuous activity. Much like muscle is built by causing micro-tears in the tissue, which are repaired by adding more muscle tissue, making your muscles larger and stronger....micro-fractures occur in your bones, and repairs act quite similarly.

Ever wonder why martial

You say on the day that Russia began a full scale invasion, and widespread bombing of Ukraine.

Except, much as all you lumpy bags of offense may like to dismiss this, it’s actually true!

Ignoring the fact that the average quality of diet has been in freefall since the 1960's, which, again, you can try to blame on some nefarious conspiracy, but really just boils down to “Americans are fat, cause they’re dumb and

Ladies....accept the fact that no one wants to see a “real” woman in entertainment.

We can see “real” women every day, where ever we turn, there they are. 60 pounds overweight, forced into a pair of leggings, and insisting that they’re “Sexxxy”

The standard of beauty is, and always has been that which is infrequently

No one gives a shit about trans people. I don’t mean that in a “everyone hates trans people and wishes they were dead” kind of way, i simply mean, the vast majority of the population doesn’t consider them in any way shape or form, positively or negatively.

0.6%, less than 2 million people in the US. Most people have

It’s nominations stem only from the fact that the public has become obsessed with this notion that “everyone DESERVES a turn” that everyone inherently deserves some time in the spotlight, a trophy, validation, praise....and everyone else is acutely aware that pandering to these views is a real easy way to earn a whole

It was a joke.
You may not like it, but not everything is about you.
No one, has the right to never be offended, or upset.
That humanity has been supporting this idiotic notion over the past several years, is nothing short of horrific.
Hate speech as a concept was always kind of stupid, but much like racism, sexism,

Fat chicks have abused their human rights, which is why they need to buy two seats when they fly. 

You know that fat people cost the US healthcare system about $250 billion a year, right? The loss of productivity from being too fat to function like a healthy human being costs the economy another $1.3 Trillion.
In 1960 (before fast and processed food rose to prominence) the number of TOTAL diabetes cases in the US

No....it makes you look like someone who’s mature enough to realize that the world doesn’t revolve around you and what you think, feel or believe.

It makes you look like someone smart enough to realize that if you limit your associations with others, to those who only share the same views and opinions on every single

Yessenia Funes, while still writing for Earther once posited that it was POINTLESS for individuals to go out of their way to modify their behavior in an attempt to lessen the negative impact on the environment because it wouldn’t matter while corporations continue to behave so much worse, saying “we have to live in

Ok so pre-pandemic, their wages worked out to $7,040/m and about $84,500/yr
Those wages have now soared to just over $13,000/m or about $158,000/yr.

The funny thing is the nursing shortage has been happening for decades, despite the fact that it takes about 18 months in night school to become a low-level nurse, which

First off, celebrities have made a career out of being GAWKED at. Who in their right mind thinks as they’re doing a photo shoot, that no one is going to comment on the subject of said photos? That they’re going to prance about on our screens in carefully cultivated clothing styles with $1000 makeup jobs and no one is

She gave a “non-apology” apology.
Which she shouldn’t even had to have done. She was right.

After WW1, things were rough in Germany, their currency cratered, rebuilding efforts were stalled by allies fucking them over, jobs and food were scarce for many.

Except for the Jews, who remained disproportionately wealthy,

No....it’s not going overboard to say they were considered non-white.
They were Irish.
Not WASP white.
While everyone is making the argument that “whiteness is a construct” you can’t then try to rationalize away the fact that people were considered outside of the confines of that construct despite their appearance. 

Sigh....nuance, and context are kind of (absolutely) important.

What hitter and his jackbooted minions said, and why they were saying it are two different things.

Times were kinda rough in post WW1 Germany. Many were starving, the value of their currency cratered into nothing. There were no jobs, no food and no

Do not send well wishes.
This is Darwin awards level behavior. Society has lost the ability to call out stupid behavior or even acknowledge the concept of personal responsibility in considering consequences.

There’s lots of ways to safely prepare meat that doesn’t involve a heat source, but knowing on raw chicken is

You can also eat shit directly from someone’s dilated asshole. Doesn’t mean the “freshness” is going to make it any safer.

A large part of the reasons human brain’s developed so rapidly (and densely) is due to the fact that we learned how to cook our food.
Which kills parasites, viruses and bacteria and provides a more

Hahahaha.
When i moved to romania 10 years ago, we had 100mb down/up for $2.5 a month.
5 Years ago we “splurged” on upgraded gigabit down/up for $4 a month.
6 months ago, they came to “upgrade the wiring” Which meant replacing the copper with fiber, giving us a free fiber modem...and as i discovered upon upgrading my

Sigh....Bezos owns 10.3% of amazon stock,
When the valuation of Amazon hit $2 Trillion dollars, Bezos “wealth” was listed as $216 Billion.
Which means at MOST he had 10 billion “in the bank” but not really since he owns other companies, stocks, properties, cars yachts and aircraft.

The value of that stock, is almost
