Mostly this chart proves stereotypes to be accurate. I love love love where statistics sit on this chart: in the middle.

A woman has flown 1.2 million miles on Delta in the last 8 years.

She's a management consultant. 48 weeks a year on the road. 3–4 flights a week. She knows the airline system better than most gate agents.

She told me most passengers throw away between $200 and $800 per trip because they don't understand how airline pricing, seat selection, and rebooking actually work behind the counter.

"People treat flights like vending machines. You put money in, a ticket comes out, and you accept whatever you get. But airlines are running a dynamic negotiation 24/7 adjusting prices, opening seats, and issuing credits. They just built the app to make you think the first price you see is the only price that exists."

She said the gap between what a casual flyer pays and what a smart flyer pays on the exact same flight, same day, same destination is embarrassing.

"I've sat in first class next to someone who paid $1,400. I paid $180. Same flight. Same meal. Same landing time. The difference wasn't status. It was that I understood 10 things the airline doesn't explain to you."

Here are the 10 things she does before every flight that most travelers have never tried:

Underrated career advice: Choose to work in a place with high talent density early in your career.

You tend to rise or fall to the level of the people around you. When you work with exceptional people, you absorb their standards, pace, frameworks, and instincts almost through osmosis.

High-talent environments compress learning cycles and force you to grow faster than you would on your own. They change your opportunity set and rewire your brain. The compounding effect of a few years in that environment can change the trajectory of your life.

Early in your career, there’s probably nothing more valuable than choosing the room with the highest talent per square foot.

On the Arday scandal: it shouldn’t be lost that elite schools have a record of elevating black mediocrities to milestone, “first-ever” positions. To do so, they always skip over *actual* black heavy hitters—e.g. Claudine Gay winning the Harvard presidency over Danielle Allen.

[Dr. Priyam Bordoloi @DocPriyamMD]

Our elders intention was well-meaning only. It is partly a myth and partly true also.

The reason they warned us is because of the immediate physical reactions they observed. Sitting directly under a blasting AC while completely drenched in sweat causes rapid, massive surface evaporation. This sudden localized chilling can trigger uncomfortable muscle stiffness and reactive spasms.

Similarly, rapidly chugging ice-cold water causes a sudden extreme temperature drop in the esophagus. This can trigger transient esophageal spasms and a mild vagal response, causing a heavy, cramping sensation in the upper gut.

Our mothers saw these uncomfortable, visible reactions and interpreted them as a dangerous temperature shock to the body. But the clinical reality is far less dangerous. While that sudden surface discomfort and cramping are completely real, sports physiology proves that cold hydration and rapid convective cooling are actually highly effective at dropping your core temperature safely. They were right about the immediate discomfort, but clinically, keeping your core cool always wins.

LOL, no. Social stereotypes are usually accurate.

You don't have to take my word for it — stereotype accuracy is possibly the most robust major finding in all of social psychology, with meta-analyses supporting effect sizes around 0.5.

Muslims make up 1% of Americans, but 5% of American doctors.

If you're going to stereotype us, 'doctor' is five times more accurate than the tropes on TV.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. Your stereotypical American Muslim.

I often get asked: "This specific thing happened, what are my chances of getting HIV?"

​Every exposure is not the same.

Blood transfusion: 92.5%
Childbirth: 22.6%
Breastfeeding: 15-20%
Receptive anal partner: 1.38%
Sharing IV needles: 0.63%
Needle prick: 0.23%
Insertive anal partner: 0.11%
Receptive vaginal partner: 0.08%
Insertive vaginal partner: 0.04%
Oral sex: <0.01%
Blood splash (eyes/mouth): <0.01%
Kissing, saliva, sweat, touching: 0%

Assuming the source is positive and NOT on medication.

​If the risk percentage is anything above zero, the Post-Exposure Prophylaxis protocol we prescribe is exactly the same.

[Diane Yap @RealDianeYap]

I haven’t verified these stats but if “low desire” is present in 43% of women, it’s really time to talk about whether that’s a problem or just normal.

Maybe the male sex drive is disordered, not the female one.

the thing that sucks about not getting cared for as a child is that there is no unconditional caretaker in adulthood. you just miss out.

They are very good
at making other people feel seen.

Asking the right questions.
Remembering the details.
Noticing when something is off.

They give others
exactly what they never received.

🚨 BREAKTHROUGH: Scientists at MIT have discovered something that sounds like sci-fi.

They found that temporarily "turning off" a lazy eye for just 2 DAYS could reboot the brain's connection to it restoring vision without harming the good eye.

Here’s how it works.🧵

women are lonely, too. but people don’t care because lonely women don't murder, they go to grad school or get a rescue dog.
