You clearly weren’t there when the mountain broke its back
Next time someone is screaming at me, I will do the same. Grab a piece of chocolate and defiantly eat it in front of them
The smell when you run the lawnmower, though… Heaven
I love the texture of cooked romanesco, it’s as if potatoes and broccoli got together and decided to have a fractal baby
And now they’re closing the Acropolis during the hottest hours as a precautionary measure

About the MSG hysteria, it’s not even rooted in actual medical data, just run-of-the-mill xenophobia, which in itself is absolutely wild to me. It’s like a whole chunk of the population collectively decided to develop the palate of a toddler, turning up their nose to “foreign” food.

"To see whether a small incentive could influence a decision about privacy, researchers offered one group of students a free pizza — as long as they disclosed three friends’ email addresses.
An overwhelming majority of the students chose pizza over protecting their friends’ privacy. Differences in gender or their stated personal sensitivities to privacy did not seem to have any effect on the choice."
Graphic of ice cover for the Antarctic is truly terrifying
It explains further down the key issues, with this admission from one of Raoult’s team: “this study had no protocol, no inclusion criteria and no initial research question.”
Jesus fucking Christ, just when you thought he couldn’t sink any lower… The damage this idiot did to the scientific community and science communication is unimaginable.
The secret is dancing
