Today I Learned
What did you learn today? Share it with us!
We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

There was a study a while back that associated grip strength with one’s grip on sanity, and many people confused the cause. If someone has something to do, they’ll have stronger hands. If they have a healthy diet that supports their physique, they’ll have stronger hands. If they lack a debilitating injury or disability, they’ll have stronger hands. If they have ambient time to devote to exercise, they’ll have stronger hands.
Unequivocally do I love my dog, but I try to avoid conflating associated privileges with results.
Just riffing off the headline here, but owning a dog is directly associated with engaging in the act of walking a dog, and walking is pretty well established to be good for overall health. There's no reason to assume there isn't causation when there very well could be
There genuinely might be something to it, but this strikes me as another “wine is healthy, ignore the healthcare and self care culture behind the European curtain” type situation. Until something more concrete comes out, I’m just gonna pet my pal for fun and stress relief and monke brain grooming instinct alleviation.
Soft hands typed that post.
I’ve already made arrangements with the local kill shelter to give me fifty dogs that were scheduled for execution. This weekend I’m going to the city to visit hospice facilities, to save some lives, two at a time.
To hold that many leashes you need quite a lot of grip strength
Since I've just read the headline and they are always the peak of the important information I was just going to get myself 100 dogs making myself 240% less likely to die making me immortal for 10 years.
240%? Please take note who is responsible for the zombie uprising this year.
