Medieval peasant stereotype: Oh no, I haven't bathed in a year and do whatever the priest says.
Actual medieval peasants: The abbot tried to take our land so we sacked the monastery in a carefully-planned attack. Our commune's dividing up the spoils. I bathed this morning in the village bathhouse.

Sigh. Since pieces are going around using "medieval peasant" as a perjorative again, here's your reminder that they were way better organized, more rebellious, less superstitious, more aware of sanitation and way more ingenious than you've probably been taught. I've written about this *a lot.*

The sound this makes is terrible but the comments to this skeet are hilarious.
This is an artificial mouth created by Japanese researchers. It uses artificial vocal cords, a trachea system, and a flexible silicone mouth that moves and shapes sound in real time.
It sounds so human-like!

A nice thread in which an actual expert patiently explains why the Secretary of Health and Human Service is not simply a liar, but an especially stupid one.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has stated that the 1918 flu pandemic was caused by a lab virus from vaccine research, a defective influenza vaccine. Let’s analyze what a lie this is. First, in 1918, 107 years ago, virology was in its infancy

Imagine reading the complaints about Ea-nāṣir's shoddy copper and rude customer service and being like, "ah, yes, humans are so different now than in the past."
some of the more insidious consent manufacturing i've ever encountered. subtle enough that you might ingest a few ideas before realizing the whole point of the piece is to tell you that being raped and killed by heartless, soulless thugs is fine, actually, and you like it.
A common assumption is that throughout history, people have experienced the same basic range of emotions. A radical field of history now challenges this assumption, Gal Beckerman reports. theatln.tc/KD2QRX9Y

“it is illegal for you not to like me”
This is the logical and inevitable conclusion of the last decade of elite media "free speech" discourse.

I was lucky enough to receive a handful of really great gifts but honestly the one I was most excited about was a new pill cutter. 😂 I curse mine every week yet have never felt like it was bad enough that i should get a new one. But wow I should have gotten a new one.
what was your favorite gift this year?
Anyone get something absolutely perfect?
Let's hear about it

it is *totally normal* to call your favorite Christmas gift "my Precious" and loudly hiss if anyone tries to touch it
