@Sputnik You're from a country that's doing so well. So much data shows how the Swiss avoid conflict, create wealth, and do so much better than the rest of the world. We here in America who align ourselves with science, wisdom, and free-thinking would welcome ideas that would improve our health care and education without, as you say, the "organized crime" impression you seem to have of socialism. For us, here in America; it seems that the opposite is true; the free reign of capitalism allows Fascism...or a corporate greed that entrenches itself in our government. Many want that "gangster" mentality of Free enterprise - and thus unbridled greed - and a trend toward fascism - gone in America. How would you suggest we improve our health care and higher education system, if not to go to a more socialist (tax paid benefits) system? The For-profit-capitalist system seems to fit a gangster mentality far better.

Robecology comments on May 25, 2019:

Reminds me of an early joke I heard by Red Foxx; "Rape is impossible; Women can run faster with their dress up than men with their pants down".... But this did get me thinking...These politicians seem so false, fake with their moral pleas, while extolling large families and unplanned children within their own social group. So I assume that the wives of these men so tolerant as to accept sex and pregnancy, whether they're ready for it or not? Apparently, so. And a second thought; Do these politicians really think that the poor and ignorant should also be deprived of family planning tools? They also seem to oppose "planned parenthood" ...is it a punishment ethic that they seek for the poor and minorities?

Robecology comments on May 24, 2019:

The most "unscientific" comment is the last one; "No one wants to do any research - they just want to be right"... Good scientists admire, respect - and often appreciate being proven wrong. Unfortunately, many scientists are hounded by publicists...who want to get "headline news"- so they will "sensationalize" or "glorify" a finding to catch readers and gain a following...then get hired for better salaries. So let's be fair; good scientists expect to be proven wrong. It's the publicists who give people like DJT the right to say "fake news"...and sometimes be right! The best scientists publish their findings in prominent journals, welcome peer review and re-study, and will counter any exaggerated claims made from their findings politely, professionally, and at high levels of debate. A scientist isn't a paid position; it's being a super-critical thinker, tester, and writer. Since science is taking a back seat to this present political situation in America, scientists need to step up their game so interpretations - like the one made in the meme - are well challenged. if we don't demand better publicized scientific research - we're risking losing our species survival on the planet...and perhaps taking many other species with us.

Native fire ants pollenating some yellow flower.

Robecology comments on May 24, 2019:

Native fire ants? I thought they were a recent invasive? https://agrilifeextension.tamu.edu/library/landscaping/managing-imported-fire-ants-in-urban-areas/ https://cdn-ext.agnet.tamu.edu/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/figure-280-imported-fire-ants-in-comparison-to-some-other-common-ants.jpg I also found this; In 1949 fire ants were mostly situated in a roughly 50-mile-wide radius around Mobile and in a few spots in central Alabama and Mississippi. But as Americans moved to the suburbs during the 1950s, desirous of white picket fences, front lawns, and ornamental shrubs, the nursery trade boomed. Soil, plants, and pots were shipped across states and counties. Hidden in the dirt caked on a bulldozer, in the root ball of a nursery plant, or in the bed of a pickup truck, a newly mated queen can travel hundreds of miles. Thanks to our horticultural aspirations, by 1957 S. invicta were in every Southern state except Kentucky and the Virginias. http://nautil.us/issue/3/in-transit/ants-go-marching

Robecology comments on May 23, 2019:

The pageantry and formal performances of the #Religulous is indeed impressive. Their art work and their building are also impressive. ...and I get it. Religion was needed for centuries due to the relatively naive, uneducated masses. It helped them. It calmed them. It made them cooperative. But it was obviously abused by many. Many of us are here because we saw the hypocrisy of religion early in our lives. We saw the falsehoods. The myths became as unbelievable as visualizing Santa coming down a chimney. So, yes, the pageantry is impressive; but no; I wouldn't miss it if it were removed from my life. Since I haven't been in a church or temple, or Mosque in decades...it's a moot point.

Another proof of evolution...

This moron is now officially delusional by claiming that "he is the most transparent president ever"...

Robecology comments on May 23, 2019:

Maddow covered the contradiction to this well last night. She pointed out that while Nixon and Bill Clinton were under impeachment investigation, they worked well with congress. Nixon passed and signed the "endangered species" act and established the EPA during his term Clinton passes several bills to show that he still can work with Congress, even though they had already passed articles of impeachment.

Do you believe that.....

Luphytha Hermin (?) suggests "everything happens for a reason" but later says "our mistakes help us grow" @Sheanutt...you don't believe this, do you? IMO....accidents in diet, walking, eating, driving, shopping, even the way we tuck our pillow under our chin determine how long we live. And these aren't caused by any super-power. We just have accidents. We make mistakes. We often - but not always - make wise choices. It's what makes us alive. and eventually, dead.

Robecology comments on May 23, 2019:

So let me get a translation here. Nearly 30 years ago, did Biden support a crime bill that DIDN'T reflect concerns about poverty while Sanders did NOT support this bill? I'm not clear on this.

Is it vegan?

It's pricey; but if your doc says you have a high LDL count, using Coconut oil might mean a few years longevity....kind of a diet insurance policy... "The medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) in coconut oil can increase how many calories you burn compared to the same amount of calories from longer chain fats (4Trusted Source). One study found that 15-30 grams of MCTs per day increased 24 hour energy expenditure by 5%, totalling about 120 calories per day (5Trusted Source)." Cholesterol is the main lipid. It is made up of different parts such as: LDL cholesterol, or “bad” cholesterol, is the main lipid that causes damaging buildup and blockage in your arteries. HDL cholesterol is actually a “good” type of cholesterol that helps to prevent cholesterol from building up in your arteries. Triglyceride is another lipid that may increase your risk for heart disease. https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/top-10-evidence-based-health-benefits-of-coconut-oil#section1

Merit badges were cool when I was a kid. I'm sad and sorry they've achieved a meme status... How about nominations for serious merit badges... -Wrote or telephoned 5 or more people holding office? -Trained a dog to do a trick/not s/or p indoors? -raised a kid to age.....(fill in your own number). -drove a car for *____* miles without an accident -still talks to his/her ex in a pleasant manner/got a successful, non life-threatening divorce? I'm sure you can add more here...

Do you remember these? Which one was your favorite, mine was caramel.😊

Sexy and classy....well done! To answer your question.....wow...that's so dependent on to many factors... Some try - some give up. Some learn the techniques early....some never learn. What's your answer?

Indeed...dicot (colorfully flowering) weeds are stunning. Did you know that most of them went through a "co-evolution" with the wasps, flies, bees, and even, in some cases butterflies, moths, and birds? Each of those is selected by a particular species of insect! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coevolution

One of the things that really annoys me is change! You learn all this computer stuff and they change...

Welcome Jen...and a double welcome to a Woman scientist from Texas...rare indeed....and critical thinking counts big-time as a qualification. Women in science were rare less than 100 years ago....so you are, indeed, still a pioneer! Kudos!
