Well, since everyone one us is "glueing" immortal ideologies, beliefs, acts of heroisms and sacrifice on ourselves to cover our own mortality and the frailty of our meat bodies, you are excused.

In a hospital I've been to, there is a skeleton poster by the MRI machine manufacturer (I think Siemens) smugly subtitled "without imaging techniques we wouldn't know". Apparently, it's not just internet randos who forget. Too bad I can't find it online.
I wanna see Ryan George make a video about the first human to ever look inside another human.
Dead or alive?
It's funny to imagine 'another human' amazed, wide eyes looking at his insides (also realising his boner is boneless),
Either Sam O'Nella od Bluejay did a video and one part was about some Greek "scientist" who did live vivisections of humans in Egypt. Can't google right now, so someone pls correct me.
You might wanna narrow your scope on that wish or else you're gonna get some early homosapien fetish/murder info.
That won't be a problem. Barely an inconvenience.
They just tried mortal kombat xray attack and then they knew it was that way
In toasty we trust
Sometimes you smoke the blunt, and sometimes, well, the blunt - it smokes you.
i gotta respect someone that keeps the post up, and corrects themselves. i really try and do the same, even if i had put my foot in my mouth.
I admire his desire for knowledge even if his wisdom is somewhat lacking lol
He's a little confused, but he got the spirit
Right? I know a lot of people who were subject to absolute educational neglect for their K-18. Some lean in, but others have questions.
ETA - and some days I smack myself on the forehead and realize something I should have known at age 8 but it just clicked now.
Isn’t it usually K-12? K-18 sounds like it includes a masters degree.
Lol yes.
I mean… my bachelors was largely neglectful tbh.. if I didn’t know what I wanted to learn and how to learn it, it would have been nothing more than an extension of k-12.
They will let just any old shitbag teach certain credits.. like my natural science 101 class, taught by a guy who bought into “organic is better”, “mindfulness will fix all your problems”, and various other pseudoscientific bullshit… such that my final essay (science is my auti special interest; I couldn’t ignore it..) was dedicated to pointing out each and every one of the pseudoscience claims he made in class which were demonstrably false (with citations). He initially gave me an A on the paper and then thought about how much I was insulting him and downgraded it to a C. That C was so worth getting. Fuck that guy. I learned more disproving his nonsense than I ever would have listening to him about anything..
But I also took a biostatistics course where the professor led by asserting creationism. Dropped that bitch right quick and complained to faculty about it (feel free to believe whatever nonsense you like, but I’m not paying tuition to hear your pet theories about thermodynamics proving creationism). Fortunately that was day two of the class, and still within time to drop. Unfortunately replacing that class fucked up my schedule for the semester big time.
And those are just two of a handful of issues with higher ed, and my school was actually one of the better for science curriculum… I started a masters program and dropped it when I got bad grades on papers for using accurate but simplified language (I’m a science communicator; using esoteric language is not something I do, even if I can easily do so. My life goal is to make science approachable for the masses, not a clusterfuck of specialized terminology that doesn’t even resemble the same term from another field)
I don't mean to shit on your education, but that story raises some red flags about the institution. Care to share it?
The University of Wisconsin system of schools is well known for being good for the sciences, while still being state colleges, and thus more affordable for average individuals, particularly residents of the state.
However, in pursuit of profits, some of their academic hiring decisions have been…. Unfortunate. I won’t name the specific school this occurred at as the problem occurs across the board for associate+/-lecturer positions. And it occurs in most states. Education as a whole in the US has been commodified, and thus reduced.
What kind of college level instructor changes a grade from an A to a C?
The kind who uses their platform to spread misinformation, in my experience. :)
I admit I had to pause and think about it for a minute.
I think his knowledge was lacking, he did have wisdom to first put enough effort in searching for it and then once he realized, he admitted to it.
I had this one time when I looked at my hand and freaked out because I had 5 fingers when I expected 4.
I am allowed to vote
i assume you voted for [opposing political candidate]!
It's funny that most people are gonna assume you voted for a particular candidate AND the people who voted for that candidate are gonna assume this post is talking about them and get mad about it lul. It's sorta telling.
Tap for spoiler
And the same goes for this comment too.
Meh, it's Lemmy. It's pretty one sided here.
There has been at least one person on lemmy who said they supported fascism
No one tell them.
Well, they don’t have to be dead.
Nonlethal skeleton removal
Marked safe from the skeleton press gang today!
Oh god
In their defense, it is easy to forget about dead people, it's hard to remember all of them.
Strong disagree, there were far fewer dead people in those days, so remembering them all was a lot easier. Gen-M ‘sjust spoiled brats!
Straight from bored panda after they stole it from reddit. This meme has legs!
How can you forget about dead people when skeletons represent dead people in the first place?
thought it wasn't actual dead people?
I'm thinking art and well, you could argue they often represent the concept of death which is close enough
