@Osint613 Bro, you're not thinking about the bigger picture. We'd rather pay $4 a gallon for gas than live with the threat of nuclear war hanging over our heads.

Reporter: “Today, gas prices hit $4” Trump: “Yeah, it hit $4 and we’re not going to have a country throwing nuclear weapons at us.” Reporter: “Americans are feeling the effects” Trump: “They’re also feeling a lot safer… prices will go back down when we leave”

The research behind this is wild. If you played Pokémon as a kid, you have a tiny region in your brain that exists only because of Pokémon. Not a metaphor. Stanford put people in brain scanners and found it. The study was published in Nature Human Behavior in 2019. They scanned 11 adults who grew up glued to their Game Boys and 11 who never played. When they showed both groups images of the original 151, the players' brains lit up in one specific spot every time. Same spot across all 11 people. The non-players showed zero response. That spot is a little fold in the back of your brain that normally processes things like animal shapes and cartoon faces. In the Pokémon players, a chunk of it had been permanently reassigned. Their brains carved out a Pokémon department sometime around age 6 or 7 and just never took it down. And the reason it ended up in the same place in everyone's brain comes down to the Game Boy itself. The screen was 2.6 inches. Every kid held it at roughly the same distance. So those 151 characters hit the exact same patch of each kid's retina, thousands of times, during the years when the brain is still soft enough to reorganize itself. Where an image hits your retina in childhood is what tells your brain where to build the wiring. Reading works the same way. Humans invented writing about 5,000 years ago. There's zero evolutionary reason for a brain region dedicated to recognizing words. But every person who learns to read grows one, roughly the size of a dime, in the same part of the brain. Brain-imaging research from 2018 actually watched it appear in children's heads as they learned their letters. It grew by quietly taking over nearby tissue that wasn't doing much yet. Stanford published a follow-up this year showing this region is way smaller or missing entirely in kids with dyslexia, and that 8 weeks of intense reading practice physically grew it back. London taxi drivers show the same thing in a completely different part of the brain. Brain scans from a 2000 study found the region that stores mental maps had physically expanded, and the longer they'd been driving, the bigger it got. These drivers spend 3 to 4 years memorizing 25,000 streets before they get licensed. About half wash out. The common thread is childhood. Harvard researchers trained young monkeys to recognize new shapes and they developed brand-new brain regions in predictable locations. Adult monkeys trained on the same shapes never got those structural changes. The young brain wires itself in a way the adult brain cannot replicate. If you're wondering whether a Pokémon patch in your brain means you lost something else, no. The region sits alongside your normal visual processing areas, not on top of them. Your brain has hundreds of millions of neurons in that zone alone. The lead author noted that every participant in the study had gone on to earn a PhD.

A Stanford study found that people who played Pokémon heavily as kids developed a small region of the brain that responds specifically to Pokémon characters. Researchers scanned adults who grew up playing on Game Boy and showed them images of Pokémon like Pikachu and Bulbasaur. Their brains lit up in the same exact spot, a consistent area in the visual cortex tied to recognizing specific categories of objects. The reason comes down to childhood. When you’re young, your brain is more flexible, and spending hours memorizing hundreds of similar-looking Pokémon essentially trained it to carve out space just for them. (via @Stanford)

@PopcornVendor12 @TONYxTWO Yes, you are a clown with that bot ass response. It’s the lack of anything that could be considered grieving. It’s the fireworks. The fake tears. The not knowing anything he stood for while trying to IMMEDIATELY fill his shoes. Not to mention her entire history making it all SUS

Trump’s “post” went too far but Druski’s did not? Selective outrage at its finest.

@MikeAPatriot @truthstreamnews No… it’s just not a funny joke. Obviously YOU think it’s funny joke. I’m asking if you genuinely believe that. And you responded with an attempted insult like a troglodyte. SMH.

The trailer for Spielberg's UFO sci-fi "Disclosure Day" features a reporter who suddenly starts speaking gibberish on live TV, reminiscent of that time in Spring 2011 where multiple reporters suddenly began speaking gibberish on live TV.
DiscussingFilm@DiscussingFilm

The new trailer for Steven Spielberg's ‘DISCLOSURE DAY’ has been released. The film follows the disclosure to the world that aliens might be real. In theaters on June 12.

🚨 FIRST LOOK: The Donald J. Trump Presidential Library is officially here. Over the past six months, I have poured my heart and soul into this project with my incredible team at @Trump. This landmark on the water in Miami, Florida will stand as a lasting testament to an amazing man, an amazing developer, and the greatest President our Nation has ever known. 🇺🇸 These images have never been seen by the public — until today. Enjoy! trumplibrary.org

@PopcornVendor12 @TONYxTWO He would also have nothing to react to if she acted like someone who lost their husband six months ago.
