AI NFT #52 Spring, Massachusetts. The researchers say similar studies are needed to better assess the role of alcohol in various conditions and #the effects of it #in their new study. "One #idea is to start with the low, relatively #young levels and then #look #at a much longer time #series. This can be #done in a variety #of different ways, e.g., to better gauge long-term #effects of alcohol and the effects of alcohol from birth #on brain function," says co-author Jrgen Weise (Wandsworth University), a professor in the department of neuroscience at the #University of Sheffield. Previous studies have also shown that drinking alcohol increases a person's risk of developing several cancers and other serious health problems, #including strokes. But alcohol has been shown to increase the risk of one or more conditions associated with #cancer #which also increase risks #of Alzheimer's, Parkinson's or other diseases that #increase the #likelihood of developing a particular disease. "Overall, our results would indicate that alcohol is #not simply a risk factor #for several health benefits," #said Weise. "It's also #important to note, as this article has been covered in media at least two days after the report was published, that alcohol is #not the only risk factor for developing a certain form of cancer. However, there could be several other other #health risks as well." In #a paper published in the journal Archives of Neurology, co-author David M. Gaffney (University of Colorado) published results https://www.instagram.com/p/CiEPSROKBC8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

How does one examine the relationship between political institutions and the likelihood of genocide?

The relationship between political institutions and the likelihood of genocide is a critical area of study within political science. Understanding how political institutions shape societal dynamics and contribute to the risk of genocide is essential for preventing and mitigating such atrocities. This article examines how one can examine the relationship between political institutions and the…

The clones really are a fascinating contrast to stormtroopers. And I don’t mean Finn and the First Order because they follow in the wake of The Clone Wars; I mean Imperial stormtroopers who dominated the Star Wars imagination first and the longest.

For decades, stormtroopers basically functioned like clones: they looked and sounded the same, even though we knew there were different people underneath the helmets they never took off; different faces, same personality.

Then actual clones basically inverted the model: genetically identical men used every opportunity to differentiate themselves, from their armor to their body modifications to their behavior; same face, different personalities.

The one place where the Venn diagram intersected was loyalty, but even then, they still inverted each other’s models. Clones designed to be unwaveringly loyal and obedient consistently questioned orders and their place in the galaxy. Meanwhile, stormtroopers from disparate planets and cultures unfailingly followed the orders of an impersonal Empire.

For all of Star Wars’s faults, for all the ways in which they dumb down or gloss over traditional scifi modes and themes, I can’t think of a more thorough exploration of cloning, the attendant questions of identity and free will, and the sociopolitical and metaphysical implications of a race of genetically identical men, of sameness in difference and difference in sameness, than the clone troopers.

#im sure this has been commented on before #but with TBB ending and the likelihood of another clone show dwindling im having feelings lol #star wars #the clone wars #the bad batch #clone troopers #stormtroopers #captain rex #commander cody #commander wolffe #captain howzer #arc trooper fives #starwars.txt

you wanted to be a good friend, because you loved your friends, but the truth was that everyone else somehow had a pamphlet on being normal that you never received. most of the time you learn by trial-and-error. you are terrified of the next big mistake you make, because it seems like the rules are completely arbitrary.

you've learned to keep the prickly parts of your personality in a stormcloud under your bed - as if they're a second version of you; one that will make your friends hate you. it feels feral, burning, ugly.

instead, you have assembled habits based on the statistical likelihood of pleasing others. you're a good listener, which is to say - if you do speak up, you might end up saying the wrong thing and scaring off someone, but people tend to like someone-who-listens. or you've got no true desires or goals, because people like it when you're passive, mutable. you're "not easy to fluster" which is to say - your emotions are fundamentally uninteresting to others around you; so you've learned to control them to a degree that you can no longer really feel them happening.

you have long suspected something is wrong with you, but most of the time, googling doesn't help. you are so-used to helping-yourself, alone and with no handbook. the reek of your real self feels more like a horrible joke - you wake up, and, despite all your preparations, suddenly the whole house is full of smoke. the real you is someone waiting to ruin your other-life, the one where you're normal and happy. the real-self is unpredictable, angry.

your real self snarls when people infantilize the whole situation. because if you were really suffering, everyone seems to think you'd be completely unable to cope. but you already learned the rules, so you do know how to cope, and you have fucking been coping. it's not black-and-white. it's not that you are healed during the other times - it's just that you're able to fucking try. and honestly, whenever you show symptoms, it's a really fucking bad sign.

because the symptoms you have are ugly and unmanageable for others. your symptoms aren't waifish white girl things. they're annoying and complicated. they will be the subject of so many pretentious instagram reels. if they cared about you, they'd just show up on time. you care, a lot, so deeply it burns you. you like to picture a world where the comments read if they loved you, they'd never need glasses to see. but since that's a rule you've seen repeated - "one must never be late or you are a bad friend" - you constantly worry about being late and leave agonizingly early. there are no words for how you feel when you're still late; no matter how hard you were trying.

so you have to make up for it. you have to make up for that little horrible real you that you keep locked in a cabinet. you are bad at answering emails so every project you make has to be perfect. you are weird and sensitive so you have to learn to be funny and interesting. you are an inconvenience to others, so you become as smooth as possible, buffing out all the rough parts.

all this. all this. so people can pass their hands over you and just tell you just the once -how good you are. you're a good friend. you're loveable.

#spilled ink #woke up at 530 to write this lmafo #me in a cold sweat: #how do i be normal #edit in the tags: #hey so i've seen y'all talk about like ... wondering if ur ''allowed'' to relate #like if this is about X specific diagnosis #and when i first posted it i really almost labelled it ''please don't assume this is about a specific condition'' #because as an artist i am often walking this line of discussing a symptom or discussing my conditions etc #and sometimes yes ! i do want to talk about an experience that is specific to who i am and my condition #but sometimes the effort of the post is about the EXPERIENCE rather than the diagnosis #because yes i am not neurotypical and as a result that influences my work but it is ALSO true that there are many reasons #why someone might experience this particular vague horrible feeling that you are... almost being CHASED by what you ''really'' are. #that you're outrunning your symptoms... that you're not really normal you're just sort of a mockery of a person #.... that's a really isolating and horrible way to feel no matter why you are feeling it. and the nature of this PARTICULAR post is that #it is inherently talking ABOUT that sense of isolation & of feeling not-deserving & of minimizing your own experiences to make urself #palatable for society in a way that others find easy-to-deal-with.... #this post is about a certain experience such that my impression is there's a higher likelihood that those who relate #would have more difficulty thinking they ''deserve'' to relate - that it doesn't REALLY belong to them #bc often we are the kind of people who are SO used to being alienated and set aside and ''different'' that we AUTOMATICALLY assume #that things are not ''for'' us... they never have been why would it start now #we are the kinds of people to be ... ''too normal for X diagnosis but too symptomatic to be normal'' #[or as this post points out... so good at ''coping''/masking/hiding it that we essentially conform to whatever shape we're poured into] #but i have witnessed others already say in the tags ''thought this was about me but it's about X so it can't be'' #and im like ... of course it was about you. #art is not a resource that is diminished by greater appreciation . #you reflect in whatever mirror fits your frame. not just the ones in your bedroom. not just the ones i specifically give you. #there will be - and often are - times that i will talk about my specific conditions... but if you're reading this #regardless of why you're here... we are here together. holding hands through space and time. and i love you for carrying it #and i know you're exhausted. i am too. but i understand. and i see you.

begging y'all to be mature if Nora doesn't make jerejean canon

#all for the game #i feel like realistically theres a very small likelihood of her making it canon #y'all can't bully her for the choices she decides to make for *her book* #they can be together all you want in fanon #that doesnt give you an excuse to think you can tell the author what she has to put into her own story #aftg #the sunshine court #jean moreau #jeremy knox #jerejean

Poor leadership and party’s likelihood of administrative collapse bring one wicket down for AAP in Punjab

Poor leadership and party’s likelihood of administrative collapse bring one wicket down for AAP in Punjab Barely two months after the Aam Aadmi Party registered a huge victory in Punjab, and a new government under the comedian-turned-politician Bhagwant Mann was installed, Health Minister Vijay Singla was dismissed on Tuesday for suspected corruption. In dramatic events preceding his dismissal,…

Whenever I see a post about Chief Hiccup (or watch Httyd 2, for that matter) I'm always reminded of how Stoick did not want his son to become chief the way he did.

Maybe it's because Stoick saw his reluctance to succeed him, maybe it's something Stoick went through himself when he became chief and he wanted to spare his son the pain, but he had a plan. He was going to retire. Step down and let Hiccup take over in his stead. That way, his father could ease him into this insanely big responsibility, could be there to guide him, help him with the tough stuff he knows Hiccup might have trouble with.

Except, then he dies at Drago's hands. And Hiccup ends up thrusted into a position a feared to be in. And yeah, he does it mostly alone, just as his father did before him, which is exactly what Stoick was hoping to avoid.

#in the shows stoick has the council but hiccup mentions that his father just ignores them whenever it suits him #and gobber doesn't count either because gobber helped stoick with hiccup specifically #we have no idea which role valka plays in all of this but stoick chiefed 20 years without her #and with berk's past with dragons there's the likelihood that stoick became chief because his own father died #and as for hiccup he feared the position because he wasn't sure if he could be the chief his father was #because he and his father are so different in his eyes #completely missing their similarities as well as the differences that could actually benefit berk and have been benefitting berk #i just feel like hiccup wouldn't have such a hard time or even take his ascension as hard if it wasn't for his father's untimely death #httyd movies #httyd 2 #how to train your dragon 2 #hiccup haddock #stoick the vast #the haddocks

I simply think if you’re going to have dogged devotion you also need to emphasize the “dog”

MDZS rereads are always fun cause you never know what you’ll notice next.

For example we know that Lan Wangji is pouty for some reason at the archery contest, where he’s refusing to actually speak to Wei Wuxian again and it ends in the forehead ribbon pulling.

But has anyone else ever noticed that after spending most of the lectures calling him Lan Zhan because Lan Wangji won’t answer him otherwise, here Wei Wuxian first tries to get his attention by calling him “Wangji-xiong”?

#mdzs #wangxian #wei wuxian #lan wangji #he’s mad because Wei Wuxian just distanced them with a name address #even though in all likelihood Wei Wuxian is being polite because they’re around not just their peers; but their seniors as well #teenage wangxian absolutely slaying it

Hello all. I have come to a wonderful and terrible realization.

Q!Badboyhalo. Vaguely established to be c!badboyhalo as well. Currently visiting a desert that is seemingly the afterlife, a blank slate of sand, whenever he sleeps and suffering from memory loss. Seemingly about to die and reset, starting anew and having to figure out who he was supposed to be in this grand life of his.

One could say he's lived too long, from certain perspectives.

Friends I have potentially bad news about the canon status of Utah in the QSMP

#qsmp #bbh #dsmp #cwilbur #qsmp theory #analysis #badboyhalo #qbbh #listen. in all likelihood this isnt what hes doing. but if he is this is the funniest possible thing he could have done. #fr though if this is the case he is doing fascinating things with the concepts the letter laid out. #im. im gonna create a little world in my head where this is true. who knows if its canon. but IMAGINE #cave mumbling #moss posts #WAIT HES EVEN DOING RADIATION POISONING. AND THERE WAS A NUKE ON THE DSMP. WAIT
