Hunter–gatherers and other primates as prey, predators, and competitors of snakes
"Relationships between primates and snakes are of widespread interest from anthropological, psychological, and evolutionary perspectives, but surprisingly, little is known about the dangers that serpents have posed to people with prehistoric lifestyles and nonhuman primates. ... Here, we show that 20th century hunter–gatherers had intense, complex interactions with giant serpents and then evaluate our findings in the context of the natural history and phylogenetic relationships of primates and snakes."

"The myth that panic, looting, and antisocial behavior increases during the apocalypse (or apocalyptic-like scenarios) is in fact a myth—and has been solidly disproved by multiple scientific studies. The National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program, a research group within the United States Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA), has produced research that shows over and over again that “disaster victims are assisted first by others in the immediate vicinity and surrounding area and only later by official public safety personnel […] The spontaneous provision of assistance is facilitated by the fact that when crises occur, they take place in the context of ongoing community life and daily routines—that is, they affect not isolated individuals but rather people who are embedded in networks of social relationships.” (Facing Hazards and Disasters: Understanding Human Dimensions, National Academy of Sciences, 2006). Humans do not, under the pressure of an emergency, socially collapse. Rather, they seem to display higher levels of social cohesion, despite what media or government agents might expect…or portray on TV. Humans, after the apocalypse, band together in collectives to help one another—and they do this spontaneously. Disaster response workers call it ‘spontaneous prosocial helping behavior’, and it saves lives."

That's pretty cool, although I'm sure some looting, sexual violence, etc., do happen.Originally Posted by ashlesha

But it might show that something like "the society" or "communalism" are not just some arbitrary rules that are imposed on us, but might be in our biology from the start.
No you Kant: Russians reject German thinker's name for airport
Bizarre. Two years ago, I'd probably think this story too fanciful to be true.

WHY BRILLIANT PEOPLE JOIN CULTS
This is one of the best things I've ever read, and it's somehow on a blog! So I'd advise reading it. It's not even just about Scientology and 16t and whatever too.
This might be behind a paywall.

I also bet you didn't know Donald Trump is actually illiterate and that's why he likes his covfefe black (thank God we have Melania Trump running this country for us.)

One of my favorite articles of all time:

At least German owls don't have to get boiled to be full, so lucky for him.

I think I just need to make a late capitalism compilation at this point.

This article explains why no one leaves 16t later on (OK, it doesn't mention 16t and people do occasionally leave but I'd recommend this to everyone on the site because of that part.)
