  • Seriously. The human psyche was not designed for information overload. It evolved for hunting, gathering, socializing within a small group, and having a limited diet.

    Now we got dopamine machines in our pocket, peer pressure from corporations, and rich foods that screw up our health, but leave us hungering for more. And we *can* have more, we’re told we can have more, it will improve our life more, so we crave more dispite the cost to health, sanity, and immediate social groups.








  • Microwaves work by using, well, microwaves to rotate polar molecules very fast, causing them to heat up. Like spinning a magnet around your food thousands of times a second. Normally it rotates and heats water in most foods. Soak a towel or paper towel in water, put it on the plate and heat it up.

    Bonus: metal can’t hold on to their electrons, so instead of the molecules spinning, the electrons rotate through the entire metal, which is why there can be electrical arcs if you put some metals in the microwave.
