Oh, I am in.

WANT. :)

Every time I read something like this I'm like "did you ask an anthropologist? You should have asked an anthropologist. This is like anth 101". I read so many papers in undergrad from other fields that ended with "we know this is a thing but we don't know why" because they refuse to believe that anth has valuable information. Like yes. Obviously the species that literally cannot have proper brain development in juveniles without interaction with other humans is going to have some issues with being solitary. Like there's a reason the vast majority of human evolution research is done by bio/physical anth and not by biologists. It's because you have to understand both sides of the coin - the behavioral and biological - to actually get any of it right. Now, I don't resent that they do this because when fields outside of anthropology do research like this and come to the same conclusions anthropologists do it's validating. Also sometimes anthropologists do this to prove a point so maybe the authors are anths. Idk. I just think it's kinda funny when a other field comes to a conclusion that is taught really early on in anth and then it's spoken about like it's a revelation.

The article actually covers that as well. The people with the highest health benefits were the ones that registered satisfaction with their social relationships. The point is not to plop yourself with random humans, it's to form functional communities and social relationships. It's all covered in the article itself.

seeing straight men be disgusted by booktok smut recommenders has actually radicalized me to the side of booktok smut recommenders. girls your taste may be atrocious but i will never disparage you for exposing mainstream discourse to the concept of soaking through your underwear. spent my whole life listening to men talk about penises it’s about time they get jumpscared by women talking about pussy in crude detail on social media. go forth and goon my warriors

My mom likes to tell me about how when I was a little kid riding public transport with her I'd always smile and giggle and chat with weird old ladies who smelled like cat pee and homeless folks and strangers dressed in bizarre outfits but any time a tidy and respectable businessman in a suit and tie waved at me I'd immediately clam up, and she takes a great deal of pride in my supposed inherentability to clock personalities but the truth is I do vaguely remember those bus rides, and it was never about the clothes or the hair or the smell, but more because everyone "strange" asked interesting questions and listened to what I had to say and seemed to think about what I said while the neat and tidy and rigid folks only ever acted like they were going through the motions, which was boring as hell and also pretty annoying

Maori content? On my Dash? I never thought the day would come. Also this is unbelievably accurate

There's actually a variety of active native communities on tiktok! I love them! ^_^
