  • I was watching a PBS documentary about the first humans in the Americas. All the scientists are super cool until you get to the American anthropologist who starts using phrenology to explain why Native American tribes shouldn’t be given repatriation rights, only for a Danish geneticist to say “yeah, this is absolutely a Native American and i am willing to testify to that in any court of law”

    Pseudoscience is still all the rage if it can be used to push a political agenda.




  • Cincinnati chili comes from Greek and immigrants fleeing the Balkan wars of the 1920’s. they got off the boat in New York and saw everyone eating Coney dogs and New York style spaghetti.They then get to Ohio and figure that’s what Americans like to eat, so they made a sauce using Mediterranean ingredients and flavors that they were familiar with. If they had called it anything other than chili, it would be widely regarded as Cincinnati’s greatest contribution to American cuisine.














  • I can’t grow facial hair for shit. I grow out a moustache after Thanksgiving so i can have a Christmas moustache, but after a month of growth i only get a caterpillar moustache. I also grow a playoff beard whenever the Blues make playoffs, since shaving that nasty fucker is a perfect silver lining when they get bounced. Other than that, i am clean shaven every other day of the year. I already have a baby face, and. trying to grow facial hair makes me look10 years younger in a bad way
