The greek goddess Aphrodite was supposedly born from Uranus' testicles which were chopped off and fell into the ocean

Penguins may look cute but while they’re tending to their younglings (or all the time in general) they shit on each others. They literally shit right where they are standing and proceed with their lives even if they are covered in excrements.

Reading this thread is amazing.

Also my fun fact is that there have been accounts of prisoners who have feared giving into anger or losing compassion for their captors. That sounds easier said than done… especially if being angry can dilute yourself into thinking you have a chance at revenge/fairness in the face of abuse and thus “speed up“ the time.

Most of dogs here in Madagascar are "stray" dogs (kind of).
Why?
Unless you're a very rich person, taking care of a pet the western way is utterly expensive.
But they still have a master though but often wonder around the neighborhood, especially at night.

You have a better chance of being hit by a car while walking to the store to buy a lottery ticket than you do of winning the lottery.

Nowadays there's YouTube and online recipes, you can even consult with a LLM trained on an unfathomable corpus.

You don't need them.

No one knows why "to knock (someone) up" means impregnation. The best theory I found (posited by one dude on the internet) is that it originates from the similar 1800s British English phrase where "knocking someone up" meant to wake them up, as in knock on their door. Somehow, this British phrase made it to America and somehow morphed into a man "waking up" a woman to her being pregnant (???)
