Have you ever heard of David Reimer?

He was a Canadian man raised as a girl following a butched circumcision in infancy. The idea was that gender isn't something you're born with, but rather something you develop over time. Sadly, this was not the case and Reimer felt something was off in his early teens. Finally at 14 he was told he was born a man and identified as such after.

I'm sure you can find an analogy somewhere in there.

mistery of the day: wtf are these lol. according to bbc, these are washing up on newfoundland shore and nobody exactly knows what are these and where do they come from. and they've been spotted at a completely random location too, in a small village in hungary, which is of course nowhere near an ocean

as far as i experienced they can. i regularly have aftican bugs and desert sand on my car after some storms. the other day i found a dead giant hornet in front of my garage and they don't live here

unfortunately that still doesn't explain what are these and where do they come from

They even pick up fish and frogs and other animals from time to time. I was thinking if it's some sort of sea sponge, jellyfish etc they are light and would carry.

it's some sort of spongy, raw pasta-like stuff based on the descriptions. no legs, no bones, no feathers, looks like nothing as far as animals are concerned. the hungarian guy who spotted these said that from the inside they have a light cream color that becomes greyish when exposed to air. the hungarian journalist did some research and he's saying that according to some canadian experts it's not even organic. looks like some chemical material to me, a bit like those insulating foams you use for construction that didn't properly dry and harden after usage

or like the hungarian article and @icemaη speculate: just *aliens* :boh:

with the evolution of plug-ins, software emulation and the availability of affordable, good quality instruments, studio interfaces and daw's it's easier to install a home studio and record your music than it ever was. affordable yet somewhat well protected publishing means are also readily accessible. and of course ai makes countless hours of music without any effort. still these numbers are surprising.

the saying "real talent will shine through" might not necessarily be true anymore, there's just so much noise right now that it feels like we're bound to completely ignore some of the better artists of our generation

Germany issues air freight security alert amid Russian sabotage fears

"German security authorities are warning of "unconventional incendiary devices" being sent via freight service providers after several incidents in which parcels sent by private individuals across Europe caught fire while in transit.

For several weeks, German authorities have been "aware of several parcel shipments that were posted by private individuals at locations in Europe and caught fire on the way to their addressees in several European countries," according to a security notice sent by Germany's Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) and the BfV domestic intelligence agency.

The security notice was sent to logistics and aviation companies on August 28."

Security sources said the warning was issued after an incident at the DHL logistics centre in the eastern German city of Leipzig, which acts as the company's global air freight hub.

A parcel sent from the Baltic States containing an incendiary device is said to have caught fire there in July. The parcel is said to have set fire to an entire freight container, which also contained other parcels, but the fire was extinguished quickly."
