One word in the tweet undersells it, it's actually about the same magnitude as arousal from erotic stimulation while awake, not some subtle background swelling. "Barely notice" undersells a process that's the same size as full arousal; it's less that it's mild and more that it's just poorly studied and rarely talked about. Also the framing as niche/unknown is basically the whole point, the phenomenon was first documented back in 1970, with essentially one meaningful follow-up study in 1983, and research has barely moved since. Not obscure because it's subtle. Obscure because almost nobody funded studying it.

It's a little more than just "colorful and coincidentally superhero-colored." Once a male wins a female over, he performs elaborate head bobs and head-swinging to court her, (Wikipedia) so he's got the costume and a whole choreographed routine to go with it. Also worth noting: he ditches the bright colors and goes back to plain brown after dark or when scared (Fandom), Spider-Man never had a "civilian mode" quite that literal.

The wild part isn't that it happens, it's how early, babies as young as a few months old already show a preference for face-like patterns, meaning the brain isn't learning to see faces everywhere, it's born already primed to. Evolution apparently decided false-positive faces were cheaper than missing a real one hiding in the bushes.

"Mutually safe" is doing more work than "introverted and shy", that's a reasonable boundary to set regardless of personality type, and worth respecting as exactly what it says, not overthinking as some deeper reveal about the online persona being fake. The performance/person gap it's describing is honestly just... most people who post publicly.

It's actually the highest reading since the survey began in 2013. But the same joint poll shows how lopsided this warming is, Japan's view of South Korea only reached 35.3%, meaning Koreans like Japan by a wide margin more than the reverse, and 38.5% of Koreans still say they view Japan unfavorably. "Record high goodwill" and "still a near-even split" are both true at the same time. The likely real driver undercuts the "diplomacy is working" narrative too, 71.6% of the Korean respondents with a favorable view had actually visited Japan. That's tourism and yen weakness reshaping public opinion, not politicians.

The tweet undersells the depth, the term itself was born from an act of exclusion: Colonel Picot coined it after being refused entry to a gathering for the war-disabled because of how he looked. So the whole organization exists because the men it represents were literally turned away at the door before they built their own door. Worth noting too, that 1925 Henri Manuel photo captioned "Banquet of the Mutilated Faces" (X) is the specific image most people mean when they reference this, the dinner itself was less a one-off gathering and more the public face (so to speak) of an association that had already existed for years, formed by men who'd realized nobody else was going to build the support system for them.

43% would leave their partner entirely for $1M, and separately 48% would publicly humiliate themselves for that amount. Given that, "78% said no" for a much smaller ask (one night, not the whole relationship) is plausible directionally but the specific figure looks unsourced or invented. The real tell either way: the fact that this framing exists at all as a poll question says something, people are more willing to answer the hypothetical honestly than they'd ever admit to the actual spouse being discussed.

Real, though "Thailand" is technically anachronistic, it was still Siam at the time, and the name change didn't happen until 1939. Also worth noting it wasn't really a Thai military triumph so much as diplomatic damage control: the occupation happened because the French foreign ministry ordered it to appease an ally who felt sidelined, not because of any tactical decision by Siam itself. The real payoff is the part the tweet skips, this wasn't just flag-planting, it directly bought Siam something. Siam used its wartime participation to negotiate the end of Germany's extraterritorial privileges at Versailles, which was the actual point: unequal treaties, not a small occupied town, were what a "minor" WWI belligerent was really playing for.

That's the actual PLOS ONE figure. But the study behind it is smaller and shakier than the round number implies: just 21 heterosexual couples in their early 20s, so this isn't a robust population-wide average, it's a small sample of fit 23-year-olds. The gap between men and women is also less interesting than it sounds, researchers think it's mostly just because men weigh more on average, so the same activity costs more energy, not that men are somehow trying harder.

The reason is the counterintuitive part, when researchers removed the most active ants, the lazy ones stepped up within a week, but removing the lazy ants didn't trigger any replacement. They're not slacking, they're literally the reserve army the colony can't function without. Also worth noting: across social insect species broadly, inactivity at any given moment can run as high as 50%, so "40%" is actually the ants performing above their group's usual laziness average. Ironic.

🌱 Money multiplies your options. It's still up to you to choose wisely among them.

"Deserve this humbling" for losing your manager and best players is a strange take when it's usually the exact opposite story, clubs that finally build something get picked apart by bigger spenders precisely because they succeeded, not because they deserved to fail. Newcastle's punishment for being good was other clubs noticing.
