Hey, you know something else that causes cancer in rats?

Being a rat.

Especially a female rat. They grow tumors like crazy. Mostly benign, but still. Two of my eight fuzzgals needed golfball-sized bits of bonus self removed.

I guess being so prone to it is part of what makes them good candidates to test for it, but it's still funny to me.

How to properly fight your local giant anti kaiju hero. Take notes, Godzilla.

It doesn't help that one ultraman is female.

It's sort of like how diet soda is horribly carcinogenic and actually less healthy than a can of sugar water.
why would you think that?

it's not particularly healthy, but that's more to do with the way it tricks your pancreas (sweet taste -> insulin release -> no sugar wat do -> you get hungrier and generally feel bad as blood sugar drops) than to do with carcinogenicity

Insulin is not released based on how sweet a food tastes.  It is released based on the chemical contents of the bloodstream.

I'm a guy, and this still makes me sick, that people have a reason to make this song.

Please don't shitpost, it lowers the quality of discourse
Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

damn, i must've misremembered, then, my bad

it does seem to cause people to eat more, but indeed i cannot find evidence that the mechanism has anything to do with insulin

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Thank you Wolfram Alpha.  Without you I'd never know how Megatron looks to a dog.

Maybe I just love Metroid, but I think this handled the topic better: https://youtu.be/xQDPuODPLDw

Man, that free speech thread didn't last as long as my session of TF2, that's impressive.

Got to say, at this point I'm thinking there is someone who just lurks and reports stuff they don't like.
