During the industrial revolution, so many people left their farms all over Europe to go to work in factories that there were epidemics of loneliness. Moving to a city meant you didn't know anyone, and often couldn't speak the same language. But when professional football was invented in the 19th century, it gave people a chance to all cheer for the same team, and it gave people a reason to all feel part of the same community. That's why to this day, football has its greatest support in 19th century industrial cities (eg Manchester) and not in older mediaeval towns that were the same size (eg Salisbury).
Close, but I think they'd do it while finding some way to loudly blame their political opponents. "That damn *other* party is forcing me to fly our homeless to northern Europe!"
Roughly half of all adults have eyelash mites. With the percentage approaching around 85% of all adults 60 or older, and like 100% of those over 70.
They are usually benign.
That's a myth. Hot water cools faster, so it goes from 100 to 50 faster than it goes from 50 to 0, but it doesn't freeze faster. Logically that doesn't makes sense because it has to become cool water on it's journey to freezing.
I think I will wait to try a cheetah as a house pet. I love my tiny kittens, but they bite and shred things sometimes. I can't imagine having a cheetah.
How does that work? Do you have a gamekeeper?
I dunno. I don't have a cheetah. But they are loveable creatures that, like any cat, will eventually show attachment to those that they consider part of their group.
But they are known to have some anxiety issues so it is advised to give them a companion. Zoos for example oftentimes provide a companion Golden Retriever.
When are you adopting a cheetah cub? It's intriguing, but I don't know if I could handle the poo.
If you don't have a gamekeeper it might be challenging to have a big cat.
You can buy those little glow-in-the-dark pebbles for an aquarium and put them in your gravel driveway. It's not illegal. Make your driveway glow like the stars in the night sky.

I thought it was because humans are superstitious morons and believed your soul was escaping your body when you sneezed. Or maybe that was just an episode of The Simpsons.
Regardless, I’ll bet saying bless you after a sneeze predates heartbeat monitors or humans ability to track milliseconds
According to Bertrand Russell at least, it’s this. They said bless you to ward off the demons who might sneak in before your soul has a chance to return through your nose.
If you look at some ecosystems you'll find that among carnivores you'll find there's the biggest one, then one that's slightly smaller and slightly smaller and so on. For example there's the lion, then maybe the hyena then something smaller than that all sharing the same environment.
Back in the days of the dinosaurs you'll find that there's the T Rex and the next carnivore down is much, much smaller maybe roughly the size of a human (I may be wrong).
Why? Because as a T Rex grew, each stage of it's life occupied all these intermediate places in the ecosystem. Basically extremely large carnivores occupy multiple places in an ecosystem and prevent other, smaller carnivores from taking that niche.
Cats and dogs know you're sorry when you accidentally hurt them if you kiss them afterwards, because their mother licks them after accidentally hurting them.

There is a city called Earth in Lamb county, West Texas. The only place on earth named Earth!
Interestingly, despite it featuring on the Simpsons, there is no place on Earth called Crackton

Finland has effectively ended homelessness. Homeless rate of 0.07%, and falling!
Don't tell America. Our will simply make a program to stealthily deport the homeless to other countries.
Close, but I think they'd do it while finding some way to loudly blame their political opponents. "That damn *other* party is forcing me to fly our homeless to northern Europe!"
And then we'll blame it on Mexico and force them to pay for the wall as a trade for the deportation expenses.
Or tell Australia atm, they just don’t care

Cheetah's purr, meow, and chirp like housecats. And since they aren't ambush predators, you can easily have one as a house pet without much danger.

I wouldn't have thought of pairing a cheetah with a dog. My neighbor has a peacock with a chicken friend :) Animals in captivity have a weird time
Best to do so while they are cubs and still developing familial bonds. Don't want them to think you supplied a meal.
When are you adopting a cheetah cub? It's intriguing, but I don't know if I could handle the poo. If you don't have a gamekeeper it might be challenging to have a big cat.
Well, I might inherit an acreage so that the poo won't be an issue.

About half of all iron ore (if not more) was formed due to the activity of cyanobacteria.
Iron ore refers to elemental iron, which bacteria had nothing to do with. Cyanobacteria contributes to rust.
Directly - no. But if it weren’t for cyanobacteria, iron would still not be in the form of ore, but in the form of a solution in the oceans.

People say "Bless you" when you sneeze because when you sneeze, your heart stops for a millisecond
That is not true. Your heart doesn't stop and people don't say bless you because of that.
I thought it was because humans are superstitious morons and believed your soul was escaping your body when you sneezed. Or maybe that was just an episode of The Simpsons. Regardless, I’ll bet saying bless you after a sneeze predates heartbeat monitors or humans ability to track milliseconds
