  • “All else being equal,” it’s not equal though, that’s what I’m saying. Our legs have electrical and muscular aids in them which make them unlike a lever completely.

    You shortened it down to simplify a complex topic. I’m pointing out it’s not that simple and it’s okay to learn more. As we age we should keep up with learning dense subjects to keep up our neuroplastocity, and it’s a social virtue. Right now I’ve been learning about electrobiochemistry for instance. You can just download textbooks. Please stop committing to simplicity when reality is complex.

    Physiology wouldn’t encapsulate a huge subject and multiple specialty fields (physiologists, occupational therapists, physical therapists, medical technologists, physical educators, surgeons, biomedical engineers) if it was simple physics. We wouldn’t need all the other muscles and junk if it was all simple physics. It’s not. It’s a highly complicated series of biochemical, magnetic, electrical, energetic, and physical properties that work against and with each other



  • This isn’t totally true (about longer limbs=harder to exercise), because it doesnt take into account how myosin works on a longer muscle/surface area, along with how electrical differences between limbs and the torso help with electrical flow due to potential energy.

    Look at a thoroughbred (fastest over medium distance), an Arabian (best for endurance), a quarter horse (fastest in burst over short distance) versus a donkey (stronger pound for pound than a horse but not faster), vs a mule (stronger than horse, faster than donkey). Keep in mind there’s different types of muscle development, eg burst vs long distance. Look at their legs. They are walking on (1) finger, look at where their ankle is. Their feet, like many animals, are angled completely differently than humans. Elephants have a similar foot to humans in that their sole contacts the ground, but obviously their feet don’t extend like ours (and they have bigger muscles). So it is interesting but I think theres more to it


  • No one tests for HSV1 ever unless you have a bad active outbreak.

    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK47447/

    Worldwide, ∼90% of people have one or both viruses. HSV-1 is the more prevalent virus, with 65% of persons in the United States having antibodies to HSV-1 (Xu et al., 2002). The epidemiology in Europe is similar, with at least half of the population seropositive for HSV-1. In the developing world, HSV-1 is almost universal, and usually acquired from intimate contact with family in early childhood

    2/3 of the population UNDER 50 have some form of HSV, but virtually every person autopsied that died over the age of 60 will have HSV-1. It’s THAT common. That’s why they don’t test.

    When you’re an adult learning complicated topics, it’s expected you don’t need to be hand fed information and in fact will take the time to learn difficult subjects. He doesn’t need to make a 101 course easier to learn - 18 year olds regularly can handle it. It’s sad you keep excusing your own intellectual sloppiness.

    Okay, so how does the zygote and embryo obtain nutrients to divide?

    Men are so intellectually pathetic and cowardly.

    It’s not the same as digestion, it’s much more akin to a tumor, the mother is literally giving all life and all cells and all nutrients to the fetus and It’s pretty amazing. That you need to shit on it as something mundane says more about your insecurity you can’t provide it.

    Honestly, let your comments stand as a record to everything I’ve said. It’s actually amazing to witness in real time. May you never have children.
