So I think your 3rd point is highly likely, but I do disagree about the genetic predisposition. If it can’t be genetically influenced then goldens are not more friendly than others, and smart dogs (poodles, Australian shepherd, etc.) are not actually smarter; they all have the same genetic predisposition.

Having an aggressive breed is possible, but as I said earlier I think the 3rd point pushes up the numbers of maulings quite a bit. I’d add a 4th point of a lot of people being real shit dog owners and not knowing how to properly raise a dog to be socially capable without harming others.

Two in the Star Wars universe. Jar jar was a sith, I love this one and wish they could make it canon. The other is palpatine used padme’s life force to keep Vader alive, I really wish they could’ve explained this better in the movies. And if they went this route, while dark, it is much better for the series in the long run because it really would be a pure evil moment for palpatine.

I also super love the Aladdin is post apocalyptic setting theory.

Take a nap. Seriously. Caffeine only makes you jittery and seem on edge, but coming in calm, cool, and collected will look way better.

This is the way, don’t hide shit, be open. If you feel the need to hide stuff from your gf/bf get out of the relationship. Them having full access is a trust thing and shows you’re mature enough for a serious relationship imo.

Adding to this:

1. Publications are important and the journal is too. Research the journal find out impact factor and the unspoken reputation of journals (pay to publish sorts of stuff).
2. Get comfortable reading, presenting, and writing publication style works. Most hands off labs have at least one day for journal club where you meet with everyone in the lab and the PI.
3. If you’re good at talking in front of crowds go to conferences! Not many people like them, but if you can flex that extrovert muscle you can make some extremely valuable connections.

Also don’t worry about your research being irrelevant. Most phd projects are niche and cutting edge. You will be pushing your field forward, you’re not just along for the ride anymore as a phd.

It was never the right time, also haven’t thought of her in years.

1. We met in chem lab and it was a fucking amazing time every week her smile made every week so worth it.
2. That lasted the year and I finally felt the courage to ask her but summer was starting
3. She came back with a boyfriend.
4. Her classes started being very different and she did more sorority activities so it was hard to hang out ever.
5. She breaks up with that boyfriend but it’s already senior year and she was going to grad school in Texas and I was going elsewhere.
6. We give each other big hugs and say goodbye on the last day cementing it as a forever “what if I had more courage?”

She was the only what if for me tbh, I haven’t thought of her in years as said. Hope she’s doing well, but it’s important to always move on from this stuff lol. Don’t hang onto it, if it was going to work it would have

Working out. I hate the silence otherwise, usually podcasts or music depends on mood and exercise.

But we have figured out most causes of death from the 1800s don’t downplay the huge impact modern medicine has had!

I would argue power of will is also power in its own.

I would too, maybe 200 years forward. I’m hoping by then most natural causes of death would be mostly figured out and poverty hopefully being a thing of the past.

I believe he is considered the spirit of that world, not necessarily a god, but a physical incarnation of the world. It would explain why he holds an insane amount of power and even Sauron’s ring only tickled him. It also makes sense when Gandalf says if Mordor conquers the rest of the world then maybe bombadil would fall because the world would be irreparably harmed

That’s what I do too, and any thing that I sign up for or use often I’ve swapped straight to proton

Gastropod easily. They are so informative and it’s generally pretty entertaining if your into food and food history

I’m biased but birding. Just go to a trail or anywhere with some binoculars and some apps (Merlin bird id and eBird) and that’s it. Just walk around enjoy nature pay attention to the little things. You will begin to see just how beautiful the world is

I have a feeling it’s definitely a blue checkmark in the making moment

This is actually not true any longer, El Salvador now has the highest incarceration rate
