@higgyboson Hi, 29 year old who to this day spends a LOT of time looking and staring at the ground, rocks, etc., and no, these little red ones are not as common as they were when I was younger. I still sit on the same stoop from 20 years ago and there is a drastic difference.
@LaurenWats55094 @JerryGabri42209 Exactly this 👏🏼 I cannot take anyone seriously who sites these differences when the science shows there IS no difference other than physical attributes of the plant.
Fun Fact:
The author did a blog post following the series's VERY dark and depressing ending after a lot of readers were traumatized by the kid characters all either dying or having PTSD and in response, this based lady said: "Lol, War is war keep crying"
why is there actually, legitimately, discourse around reading speed right now “8 hours to read a book is slow” “you should be able to read a book in 3-5 hours”
bro we are in a literacy CRISIS, i do not care how fast or slow you read a book, just pick one up and read it
A Stanford study found that people who played Pokémon heavily as kids developed a small region of the brain that responds specifically to Pokémon characters.
Researchers scanned adults who grew up playing on Game Boy and showed them images of Pokémon like Pikachu and Bulbasaur.
Their brains lit up in the same exact spot, a consistent area in the visual cortex tied to recognizing specific categories of objects.
The reason comes down to childhood. When you’re young, your brain is more flexible, and spending hours memorizing hundreds of similar-looking Pokémon essentially trained it to carve out space just for them.

@cloudyyygems@mattjosephperry Are you seriously always this much of a piece of shit? “Looks busted,” you’re talking about THEIR BODY. Their PHYSICAL BODY. YOURE fucking busted. Literally disgusting.
REVELAN DETALLES DE LA TRAGEDIA EN POKEMON
Salieron a la luz los tristes detalles del ataque en el Pokemon Center de Ikebukuro. La victima fue Harukawa Moe, una joven de 21 años que fue atacada por su exnovio acosador. La policía aconsejó a la víctima que renunciara a su trabajo porque el agresor sabía dónde trabajaba, pero ella se negó, diciendo: "Era mi sueño trabajar aquí..."🕊️🖤
"What if a drug addict used your tax dollars to get SNAP benefits?"
The government uses my tax dollars to bomb villages, arm warlords, fund coups, and trafficks children through proxy states. If a "junkie" eats because of me, that's the most moral thing my taxes have done.
The autistic urge to choose the most precise words when you speak - so there can be no confusion - only for some people to pay little attention to your words and pay more attention to your atypical facial expressions, tone and body language, and still end up misunderstanding you.
@noeisgirl Hii, also in RI. Did uk that in RI landlords and their properties needed to be registered as of Oct 2024, and if they haven’t, are currently in violation and could just oh idk be stacking on other headaches for themselves by providing more examples of how they’re irresponsible?😉
