What if we took the idea of two minutes of hate session from the dystopian 1984 and made it available all the time. Everyone could carry in their pocket their own personal two minutes of hate that they can have any time they want as often as they want. Orwell never dreamed so high

We all have that already, it's called smartphone sadly.

It works with whatever political direction you lean on, which stance you have on two or more genders, which religion you love or hate, which gaming platform you prefer, how old you are and many more "divide and conquer"-topics.

It'll be difficult to replace because it's so effective already...

Might want to take up bird watching: an early indicator of cognitive decline is the loss of an ability to pick up on subtext.

That's what the person you responded to was saying.

What percentage of people are neither of the simple common XY nor XX chromosomes? It's about as many people as there are with red hair. If you don't include chimerics it's about 0.25-1.7%, if you do include twin chimerics it's 8%, not including mothers micro-chimerism.

Probably shouldn't be having those Kenyans (Kalenjin) competing in marathons either. Completely unfair advantage.

All models are wrong, some are useful.

At first, I thought this was culture war bait and then I read the Wikipedia article and it is.

It is culture war bait

3 wild and wacky facts your doctor doesn't want you to know about your torment nexus

Stopping and looking at some birds and what they're doing is really relaxing. Be it pigeons, seaguls looking for fries or if lucky a crow or rook.

The corvids looking back wondering what you're doing and they'll communicate back too.

I think becoming a person who would stop and do that, or go birdwatch in general, is probably the important part.

Mean sure, but doing just that misses the learning and specific attention part. Going from "bird" to species, learning about morphological, vocal differences is going beyond "being a little more active and interested in your surroundings". It's really engaging every sensory and cognitive system in concert.

That said, collecting plants or beetles is probably equally beneficial. Geocaching comes to mind too.

Although, I wonder if looking up may contribute, given old people tend deform and bend forward with age. Could affect blood or lymphatic circulation.
