"The children will grow up".
This was also the argument that Nazi officials gave, during the Nuremberg Trials, to justify why they had killed children during the Holocaust.
I ended up watching The Island with Bear Grylls after seeing these clips of the men vs women experiment online. The clips are funny, but they leave out some of the most fascinating parts.
At one point the women were starving and came across a mother pig and two piglets. Their first instinct was to make the piglets their pets. 😂 They did eventually eat them, but it was emotionally grueling for them.
Another interesting difference was their different approaches to leadership and organization. The women resisted it because they valued consensus, equality and cooperation. They did not want someone declaring herself superior and ordering everyone around. The men created a hierarchy and leadership early on, but it led to some conflict when some men were seen as not contributing to their survival efforts.
Obviously it’s just reality TV, but it’s a fun watch and a fascinating little Lord of the Flies glimpse into how groups of men and women think and behave so differently.
10/10 parenting. I will die on the hill that supporting young adults and staying right there with them as they climb into adulthood is one of the most important things you will ever, ever do as a parent.
The first episode of this season of #RHOSLC was perfectly handled. I was in floods of tears. These aren't just frivolous reality TV shows, they show real life. Mary deciding to come back so soon, and show all life has meaning, will help so many people. TV at its best.
Sé que es una mujer super enérgica, y que ha tenido una vida con todas las comodidades. Pero que alguien le pregunte cómo a esa edad está tan derechita y ágil. Yoga? Pilates? Nutrición?
Es realmente impresionante y poco común esa velocidad al caminar, y estructura ósea de 20.
A poor economy can explain so many different crimes but rape isn’t one of them. You rape because you’re a rapist, there are no socioeconomic factors that influence that.
Şu adamların yaptığı işe bak harbiden önlerinde eğilmek lazım adamlar bildiğin rot ayarı yapar gibi hastanın beynine tek dokunuşla mevzuyu çözdü çok büyük iş şu doktorluk
NASA drilled an 8-inch hole through 600 feet of Antarctic ice in 2009, lowered a camera into water everyone assumed was dead, and a 3-inch shrimp swam up and parked itself on the cable.
The site sat 12 miles from open water. No sunlight had reached that ocean in thousands of years. Textbooks said nothing bigger than a microbe could live there, because animals need food and food needs light.
Here's the detail that stunned the biologists. An 8-inch hole samples a laughably tiny slice of ocean. If your first random peephole into a supposedly barren sea immediately shows an animal, the sea can't be barren. You don't spot a wolf in your first minute in a forest unless the forest is full of them. Then the crew pulled the cable up and found a tentacle from a foot-long jellyfish wrapped around it.
An amphipod can't make its own food the way deep-sea microbes do. Something has to feed it. Which means ocean currents are running a supply line under 600 feet of ice, hauling nutrients 12 miles into the dark, enough to support an entire food chain nobody knew existed.
Lead scientist Bob Bindschadler said they were "operating on the presumption that nothing's there."
Europa, Jupiter's moon, holds an ocean sealed under miles of ice. For decades the argument against life there was that a sealed, dark ocean has no way to feed anything. This one grainy video quietly deleted that argument, and it's been showing up in astrobiology talks ever since.
