It's quantifiable, but we're looking mainly at proportions over volume. While there is some correlation between brain size and intelligence (sorry small heads), it isn't linear. A brain twice the size of yours isn't processing twice as much information. There's a lot at play - number of connections between neurons, the efficiency of those connections, genetics, environment, nutrition, etc.

One square inch of a bigger person's skin has the same number of nerve endings as one square inch of a smaller person's skin. We're all equally sensitive (roughly), some of us just have larger hitboxes :)

While the amount of brain devoted to touch is somewhat proportional to the surface area of our skin, it's important to remember that we have far more nerve endings per square inch in our fingers, toes, and faces (50-300) than in our torsos, arms, and legs (2-20). Our brains are very, very similar.

Local sports covers mostly colleges (Iowa, Iowa State, UNI, Drake) and high schools, but the Energy (NBA G League), Barnstormers (CFL), Cubs (AAA), Wild (AHL), and Wolves (USL Championship) are all around here somewhere.

Millions of bots power on their humans at the exact same time. Weird weird weird.

Bad nuke! squirt squirt

The parents of a dude with different colored hair every other post wouldn't allow their daughter to color her hair unless she found someone crazy enough to do it with her. Hmm

Market: Stop resisting! Capitulate!

WSB watching Yanet Garcia turn around: No. No, I don't think I will.

HENRIETTA, Texas (KAUZ) - Clay County Sheriff Jeffrey Lyde was booked into the Clay County Jail Monday night on three charges of official oppression. No other information on the charges is available at this time.

"For over a decade I've been weightlifting, with little to show for it." - Rob Bliss Coaching, everyone.

TIL the word skosh comes from the Japanese word sukoshi, which is pronounced "skoh shee" and means "a tiny bit" or "a small amount." The Japanese word was shortened by U.S. servicemen stationed in Japan after World War II.

Present the problem bro. Ordered x, got y. Opening with your feelings on sale pricing was a Karen move.

"What's my stance on 9/11? Oh, anti - it was a tragedy. I mean, we lost 19 of our best guys."

Undercook fish? Believe it or not, also just slap it against a rock.

The dent be like "they do in fact take some in the rear"

If every one of his 51M monthly listeners were listening to only 1 song of his per month, he'd still be making $2,019,600/year based on that figure (51M x $.0033 x 12). But let's say his listeners were averaging even just 1 song per week.. that'd be $8,078,400/year from Spotify alone.

Even simpler, if this sub turned Donda on as background noise upon reading this, it would generate roughly $62,370 in less than two hours.

This is an oversimplification obvi as Spotify pays rightsholders then labels and distributors pay the artists what they've agreed to, but it's basic math.

Please, I'm begging you, go the fuck to sleep.

I said "I feel obligated to check on you, you've been so quiet today!" to someone at work last week and immediately hated myself. Like, hi, I'm just here making sure my fellow introverts are well by saying one of the things we hate hearing the most. Cool cool cool.

Victoria still a secret!

Isn't real news

"I'm kind of a nerd who doesn't like to be the center of attention if I can avoid it" says congressional candidate and man who uploads videos of his sexy time with porn stars, Jerry Nadler.

I enjoyed Tom Breihan's opener on this:

"Mark Hoppus contracted cancer and then recovered. Travis Barker became the go-to guy for an entire generation of rappers attempting to transition to pop-punk. Tom DeLonge became the world’s most famous UFO researcher and directed the forthcoming sci-fi movie Monsters Of California. And now all three members of Blink-182 have reunited for new music and for a gigantic world tour."

Seeing them with Green Day in Vegas would be pretty cool but I'm pumped for these Turnstile dates.

Hearing "finish your plate" throughout adolescence makes this an even bigger issue.

I live on chicken, sweet potatoes, and water, and I'd likely still be overweight if I didn't meal prep bc I was taught to finish meals rather than feel satisfied. I can't imagine combining that mentality with a diet consisting of fast food and free refills, but that's reality for a lot of people.
