10 years of rule
It took till this year for scientists to have the idea to use mri to track brainchanges in pregnancy.
Just imagine how many super basic observations we must be lacking.
Scientific thought is ancient but we barely scratched the surface in pretty much every field.
Ah see you said “pregnancy” which one o’ them woman things and see we just don’t got the time and energy to be spending on that stuff. /s
I heard that some men used to be babies that came from a woman. Ugh. Disgusting
Pff, nonsense, if that were real then we would have heard of it by now!
All real men spring forth, fully formed, from Zeus’s brow.
Took til past couple years to get funding for it. About 75-90% of scientific proposals to the NIH are not funded.
ignoring the elephant in the room that the study of anyone other than white males is rare, people don’t talk about the obvious. We don’t write it down.
Gravity took FOREVER before someone went “wait why?” and there’s tons of stuff we don’t even think about, like the ‘new shape’ that people just didn’t think to talk about because it’s just so simple
the study of anyone other than non white males is rare,
There’s plenty of studies on white males.
sorry typo 🙃
What is that? Does it have a name?
It looks like you could stack them in a strong way.
That’s not a simple shape. Why would people want to talk about it?
Blessed are the toolmakers
I was born in the dark ages. Before 2014, we used to think the world was flat and didn’t think about climate change.
In the 70’s we lived in fear of the next ice age. Then the 80’s it was nuclear winter. Then we invented global warming to fix those problems.
Instead of global warming, we shoulda patrolled the Mojave.
We used to think the world was flat.
We still do, but we used to too.
Damn, this is so accurate it hurts! 😔
Look, we gave science a try for 10 years. It didn’t work out, so we’re just not using it anymore.
It’s stairs we didn’t have before 2014. Everyone just used ladders.
In Abraham Lincoln’s day, everyone just rocket jumped to get to the second floor!
Luckily builders would set aside space in buildings just in case someone had an idea for how to move between floors without a ladder. Made retrofitting stairs a breeze. You can’t even tell that they were added later most of the time.
Meanwhile in Alabama, things are so backwards there they haven’t even figured out shoes yet! It’s not like they prefer sandals or they’re too poor to afford shoes. They all go around barefoot, because the idea of shoes just has never occured to any of them. Most buildings instead have special brush ledges so you can scrape the dirt and blood off your feet before you walk in. Again, they’re just a hopelessly backwards people. So backwards, they haven’t even figured out shoes yet. Their cousins over in Mississippi are a bit further along. MSU currently has a study going where they’re experimenting with wrapping feet in ziplock bags, secured with rubber bands.
Closer to 10000 years. Maybe 10mil.
