Good news everyone, it turns out that plants like CO2. How come scientists never discovered this until recently? Seems like it should be big news, but they never talk about it.

"Up to 50% of patients with cannabis-related psychotic symptoms presenting to the ED requiring hospitalization will go on to develop schizophrenia.

what were ppl doing living in siberia 24,000 years ago during the middle of an ice age? shouldn't it have been covered with glaciers a mile thick?
>>16134487No. Do you not know anything about climate or weather? Latitude is only one small factor in determining climate. For instance, much of Western Europe and the West Coast of the US has significantly warmer winters than the east coast of the US. Somewhere like Washington State, British Columbia Canada, or the UK, is warmer than the state of Viriginia in winter, even though they're much further north. Continental climates tend to face much more weather extremes. Much of the midwest and central asia has extremely hot summers and frigid winters. Afghanistan is literally colder than Vancouver Canada in the winter. Ocean currents and so-called prevailing winds have just as much of an impact on climate as does latitude. A change in ocean currents or prevailing winds can therefore have major long term impacts on regional climate patterns. As for the last ice age, much of North America was covered by the Laurentide ice sheet and much of Europe by the Fennoscandian ice sheet, along with permafrost stretching throughout most of the continent. At this time sea levels were completely different and the Berring straight would have been mostly dry land, which entailed a completely different pattern of ocean currents and prevailing, both globally, but especially with the region today encapsulating Siberia, the Russian far east, Alaska, and the west coast of Canada and the US. The resulting in completely different weather patterns in the region. Siberia and the Russian far east, and the entire Bearing straight region were a lush, relatively warm areas that received significantly more rainfall than in modern times (much of Siberia and the eastern portions of the Eurasian steppe is actually relatively dry or even semi-arid, receiving like 10-25 inches of rain a year, which is comparable to a lot of Northern California).
>>16134487>>16134960 Actually, at the time parts of Siberia functioned as a sort of refugia for the human and neanderthal populations in the region. For instance, the Mal'ta Buret culture was native to ice age Siberia, and they appear to be have been a very developed and sophisticate culture complex in the region, that appears to have left genetic traces on many of the contemporary populations of Eurasia (e.g. Finno-ugrics, Turks, Indo-Europeans, Native Americans etc.) They lived in the area roughly 20,000 years ago. They made venus vigurines and possibly totem pole-like idols (e.g. the shigir idol), and they may have been the same population which geneticists today call the Ancient North Eurasians.

>>16129368>Has science ever studied this topic?Entomophagy and Coprophagy in Undifferentiated Schizophreniahttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3168083/Coprophagia or the ingestion of feces, considered to be a variant of pica, has been associated with medical disorders like seizure disorders, cerebral atrophy, and tumors and with psychiatric disorders like mental retardation, alcoholism, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, fetishes, delirium, and dementia. But entomophagy or the practice of eating live or dead insects as food by humans has only been reported as part of eating habits by some cultures in the world and not in association with any medical or neuropsychiatric disorders. Till date, there is no report in medical literature of entomophagy as an association with any neuropsychiatric or medical illnesses. Coprophagy and entomophagy has not been together reported as well. We describe the first ever case report of a 19-year- old male patient diagnosed with undifferentiated schizophrenia and associated with both entomophagy and coprophagy. His schizophrenic symptoms, the entomophagic, coprophagic behaviors improved with olanzapine therapy. Entomophagy and coprophagy, two very unusual human behaviors, can be seen in association with schizophrenia.

Suppose I have an accomplice who is the head of the government of a country. We both decide to privatise the central bank of that nation and become its sole shareholders by changing the constitution. (i) What will the rich/oligarchs of that country do as I am certain they will not abide by this decision: 1. Now that I can literally print money to buy shares in their companies on the stock exchange. 2. Buy government bonds/debts. 3. Loan money to the government. (ii) Are there any bad repercussions to this?

NOAA admits that CO2 is not a greenhouse gas and has no effect on the climate. According to NOAA:>The amount of CO2 in the atmosphere today is comparable to around>4.3 million years ago, when sea level was about 75 ft higher than today,>the average temp was 7 degrees F higher than in pre-industrial times, &>large forests occupied areas of the Arctic that are now tundra. Which is to say that even though CO2 is the same now as it was 4.3 million years ago, the climate today is far, far different and much colder than it was 4.3 million years ago and this is because atmospheric CO2 levels have no effect or undetectably little effect on the Earth's climate. Its also worth noting that atmospheric CO2 levels have been substantially above where they have been in the recent past for over 100 years now and there has been no substantial change in the climate during that time, which only further proves NOAA's assertion that CO2 doesn't affect the Earth's climate and that CO2 is not a meaningful greenhouse gas.

Cherry blossoms bloom in Tokyo, 15 days later than last year, 5 days later than averagehttps://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/03/29/japan/society/cherry-blossoms-bloom-tokyo/Cherry blossoms finally burst into bloom in Tokyo on Friday after heavy rain in the morning, marking the latest blooming in over a decade.The declaration of the blooming made by the Meteorological Agency came 15 days later than last year and five days later than in an average year. Private forecasters had also expected this year's bloom to come much earlier.Friday’s blooming is the latest in Tokyo since 2012, when cherry blossoms were declared to have blossomed on March 31, according to the agency.Cherry blossom forecasting is big business in Japan. As early as in January, companies start to issue forecasts for when cherry blossoms will first bloom and reach their peak.The weather agency, which began forecasting the annual bloom in 1955, sets a government standard for observing cherry blossom trees. For consistency, the meteorological agency only uses data gathered from the Somei-Yoshino variety, which produces pale pink blossoms.
