Have you heard of the vocal-auditory feedback loop? The mechanism by which your brain adjusts vocal pitch, volume, and quality based on what your ears perceive you to sound like is called the Lombard effect. In 1909, Lombard observed that people in noisy environments involuntarily speak louder.

Studying doomsday prophecies offers fascinating insights into human psychology. Why do movements/cults persist after doomsday predictions miss? Analyzing common prophetic failures (like the Millerites' history), we can learn valuable lessons about belief, cognitive dissonance, and self-deception.

Myths of toughness, dominance, and emotional stoicism have shaped generations and left many men disconnected from themselves and others. What have we lost by trying to 'man up'? Instead, tenderness, play, and presence can be reclaimed as strengths, helping us move beyond stereotypes.

Optimism for space exploration is soaring thanks to three things:
1. Commercial reusable rockets slashing costs
2. Matured technology (like ISRU)
3. Clear goals from programs like NASA's Artemis initiative to establish a Moon presence
The new space age is here!

Our brains tend to focus on the bad, a survival mechanism to detect threats. This can strain relationships and stop us from living our best lives. The antidote? Gratitude. Get in the habit of practicing gratitude by writing one thing you're thankful for every day this month. #GratefulNovember!

Cursing is rarely a symbol of low class. It's often a mark of high authenticity.
Evidence: Swearing predicts higher rates of honesty and integrity. It signals a willingness to prize candor over courtesy.
A little profanity can show that you're being real and you do give a damn.

The highest compliment from someone who disagrees with you is not “You were right.” It’s “You made me think.”
Good arguments help us recognize complexity where we once saw simplicity.
The ultimate purpose of debate is not to produce consensus. It’s to promote critical thinking.
