Sounds like a plausible theory. I wonder how extensively it’s been studied. I’d like to know if it’s unique to humans. Figuring out which species do ot woukd give a clue to when it evolved
- Comment on *Yawn* 2 days ago:
Why the heck is yawning contagious? I woukd expect such a feature to evolve if it served a purpose like, say, warning of something coming. See someone give a warning call, pass it on to the rest of the tribe. But why should a sleepy signal do that? Was there a sleep illness people had to worry about catching? Maybe it evolved to signal to everyone that it’s nighttime. How many species is yawning contagious for? I’m picturing lions for some reason. I have a feeling the behaviour is common among mammals

Is fruck a real word? I thought I made it up as a replacement swear word

My aunt used to try to convince me to get Twitter, but she couldn’t explain what she thought I could do with Twitter that I couldn’t do with Facebook

In the movie Shape Of Water, Octavia Spencer plays a janitor at a science lab. She says “just think, the greatest minds in the country, peeing all over this floor”
- Comment on I will never not be angry they we are made to believe these types of comments are genuine discourse. Why is it defeatism is always the top comment even when your talking about a pedophile president? 1 week ago:
I think they’ll talk about it in the news, just nothing will be done about it

Well, what are they waiting for?

Because Trump keeps getting away with heinous crimes, why would this time be any different? I want to be wrong. Please explain to me who will prosecute him, tell me what steps will be followed.
- Comment on Governments are like parents who say, "Do as I say, not as I do" 1 week ago:
The reason I said governments in general was I didn’t want to single out any particular country when lots of countries are like this. I agree that government isn’t inherently bad if done right.

- Comment on I don't care about the Epstein files 1 week ago:
Well I hope the people involved actually do get punished but I don’t think they will
- Comment on I don't care about the Epstein files 1 week ago:
My stance on it is, I want to see consequences. Given how unlikely it is that there will be any consequences, I struggle to care about the files. If they tell me the files will actually result in Trump being held accountable for his crimes, then I will be excited.

Surely you of all people understand not giving a damn about others
- Comment on Racism is for poor people. Rich folks have classism. 1 week ago:
Would you consider it classist to say that people without tens of thousands of dollars don’t deserve to date?
- Comment on Wealthy people of color should help minorities but they choose not to 1 week ago:
OP seems to be showing concern for the economically disadvantaged but their very next post says that people who can’t afford expensive things don’t “deserve” to have a girlfriend
- Comment on If you truly love your girlfriend, then you need to buy her an expensive engagement ring. If you don’t have the money, then you don’t deserve to be in a relationship. 1 week ago:
So…only the rich should be allowed to date?
- Comment on The PP Police 1 week ago:
It’s so hypocritical. They say you’re objectively male or female and that there is no grey area and then they start saying cis women, with vaginas and XX chromosomes, aren’t women?

When I was in school, a teacher told us about how Bill Cosby’s son died. One of my classmates asked, after hearing the story, “is Bill Cosby’s son still alive?”
