How to Read ANYONE Instantly . Content Warning.
Greetings, my fellow learners! and today we're diving deep into an incredibly valuable skill that can revolutionize your interactions and understanding of people - the art of instantaneously reading anyone through the intricate language of body movements. While verbal communication has been our primary mode of expression for millennia, it's essential to recognize that our bodies speak a universal language that transcends words. Our true feelings and intentions often manifest through body language, a channel that's harder to disguise than spoken words. Interestingly, a study conducted by MIT unveiled a stunning revelation: the accuracy of predicting negotiation outcomes, sales meetings, and business presentations reached an astounding 87% by merely scrutinizing participants' body language, without the need to listen to a single word uttered.

The Resilient Villages
In the heart of Ukraine, nestled between rolling fields and endless skies, lay a collection of villages that had weathered the storms of time with unyielding resilience. These villages, far from the bustle of cities and the cacophony of modern life, were home to a tight-knit community bound together by something more profound than proximity – an unbreakable emotional bond.

Masturbation. Content Warning.
MASTURBATION EFFECTS AND CAUSES One of the most concerning situations for any animal or human is the ability to access repeated surges of dopamine without any effort or self-directed pursuit. Take cocaine, for example, a drug that significantly increases dopamine levels. Similarly, methamphetamine, a potent stimulant, also leads to a surge in dopamine without requiring any adaptive action except acquiring and spending money on the drug. This lack of sacrifice or effort means that the only behavior that gets rewarded is drug-seeking, while other behaviors do not provide the same intense dopamine release. This is why these drugs are so harmful and addictive. Moreover, the reinforcing effect of dopamine not only provides a pleasurable kick but also strengthens the behaviors that preceded the drug ingestion. If the only behavior that gets reinforced is the act of taking drugs, it creates a monster in the mind. This understanding can be applied to the issue of pornography as well. As a male, I have received unexpected questions about pornography, and it made me realize that there is a need to address this topic directly.

Evolutionary Proof. Content Warning.
Your body is a temple, but it also has a museum of natural history. Look closely and you'll see parts that aren't there because you need them but because your animal ancestors did. No longer serving their previous function but not costly enough to have disappeared, these remnants of our deep history only make sense within the framework of evolution by natural selection. With your arm on a flat surface, push your thumb against your pinky and tip your hand slightly up. If you see a raised band in the middle of the wrist, you've got a vestigial muscle in your forearm. That tendon you see connects to the Palmaris longus, a muscle that around 10-15% of people are missing on one or both of their arms. It doesn't make them any weaker though. There's no difference in grip strength. In fact, it's one of the first tendons that surgeons will take out so they can use it in reconstructive and cosmetic surgeries. You can find the Palmaris longus across mammal species, but it's most developed among those that use their forelimbs to move around. In primates, that means the muscle is longer in lemurs and monkeys and shorter in chimps, gorillas, and other apes that don't do a lot of scrambling through trees. It's not the only leftover muscle that we've got. Look at the three that are attached to our outer ear. We can't get much movement out of these muscles, especially compared to some of our mammal relatives who use them to locate the sources of sounds. Presumably this would have been quite helpful for early nocturnal mammals.
