Sigmund Freud had the worst case of bad medicine of any famous person I've ever heard about or read about. He was essentially mauled and mutilated over a decade and a half by various surgeries and radiation necrosis. No wonder he became a cocaine addict. #oncologist

Jobs had a neuroendocrine cancer of the pancreas. His survival was in line with this variety which comprises only about 5% of pancreatic cancers. Pancreatic adenocarcinomas have a very different biology and natural history than the type of cancer Jobs had. #oncologist

This is what happens when the irresistible joke is met by an immovable brain.

The earth's atmosphere used to be oxygen-free, now it's not; that's sad.
The earth's atmosphere used to contain much, much more CO2 than today, now it doesn't; that's sad.
99.9% of all previous extant species no longer roam the earth; that's sad.
The earth's land mass used to be one unbroken continent,…
I thought it was gaseous propulsion. Superman can control his rectal muscles to expel gas silently but efficiently. His Kryptonian digestive tract metabolizes all matter into a noble, inert gas: krypton. Special cells in his anus supercool the krypton gas to ~1 degree kelvin. As the gas is expelled, an embedded…

Leftover waste from the Neptune way station probably goes through Uranus.
A neutron star.
Guess somebody owes Alec Baldwin an apology.
All my work emails were subpoenaed and read by the DoJ once upon a time. One of their biggest complaints in the end was my semi-frequent use of smiley-face emoticons; bizarrely, it really made a few 20-something government attorneys hoppin' mad.
And here's the government itself doing the same thing. I'm incensed :-0…
Probably only taken about ~10-20 thousand hours of his life to get to that level, so eh no biggie.

The amount of benefit creatine can give versus anabolic steroids e.g. in making muscle gains is analogous to the amount of propulsion benefit a mouse farting off the aft of a ship can give versus the ship's engine.
my opinion:
the brain is a massively parallel computer running with an exceedingly optimized parallel computing operating system (written and honed over hundreds of millions of years)—there are more neural connections in the brain than there are atoms in our galaxy
