Brazilian researchers prove that the idea of “race” is a subjective construct
By making a genetic profile of college-level students, brazilian scientists have come to prove that such thing as a “pure-bred” individual is yet to be found, and that ancestrality markers do not determine the way people look or see themselves.
Today:
I found out that I am the labs ‘Strongman’. If theres something heavy in the lab, Im the first asked to lift it. I have never been more proud.
I heard people saying that if they had tests about Pokémon, they’d only get As, so I gave my students the opportunity to prove it. ;D
This is the most fun I had IN MY LIFE while preparing an exam!
I translated only parts of the exam, but if you understand Portuguese, you can check out the whole thing on this PDF.
Remember “The Secret World of Alex Mack”? If you’re a child of the 1990s, like me, of course you do.
Here’s something that will rock your world: Alex Mack still wears the hats.
“Um, do you know that I still have so many of those hats? And I wear them,” series star Larisa Oleynik told me during a recent phone interview. (She referred to the hat at left as the “condom cap.”)
I caught up with some of the cast and the show’s co-creator to discuss what life was like being on one of Nickelodeon’s top show, whether they’d do a reunion/remake a la “Girl Meets World” and got to the bottom of a cliffhanger that has plagued me since 1998: Did Alex Mack take the cure for her powers?

**Yes, this is the story I teased days ago**
A MUST-READ today.
Nonsense Fogwafty, I dunno if youve seen this yet, but you must!
Blood. Blood everywhere.
But most of it is inside people. But still. The horror. I’m surrounded by deep dirty dirty techno in the kitchen, and a pretty complete lack of knowledge about antizymes and frameshifting and whatever else I’m supposed to put in this thing. I have nowhere near enough monster, and would love an adderall or 2. I am completely fucked. This was supposed to be handed in this morning to my supervisor who swears shes as shit as I am at writing papers. I think I may have done the wrong course. If this was Meltycakes writing this there would be hashtags everywhere. I think I may be loosing my mind. John Atkins, Pasha and Ivanov seem to have been the only people who have done any sort of research on the subject. The very people who will be reading my paper. I’m royally fuuuuucked. And I wish there was holes in the kitchen peninsula so my knees could fit under the table. I might make some. Could always glue back in the wood at the end of the year so Brian doesnt find out. Fuck.
