  1. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🦶😄 Neuroscientists surveyed 448 adults from Chinese, Dutch, and Greek backgrounds about their ticklishness, finding similar responses across #cultures.

    The #neck, #armpits, #abdomen, and #feet ranked among the most common sensitive spots, yielding a body map of ticklishness. Patterns partially matched #Darwin’s idea that less-touched areas may be more ticklish, within a mix of physiological and #social influences.

    [Ils plantent des haies : ils "innovent". 😂
    Ça bouge enfin dans la bonne direction. Il est grand temps...]

    Il y a un an, de violents orages frappaient durement les producteurs d'ail rose de Lautrec, dans le Tarn. La tempête, la grêle avaient partiellement détruit la production. Depuis, les agriculteurs tentent de trouver des solutions naturelles pour protéger leur culture.

  5. Why Do #Cultures Adopt the #Religion of Their #Oppressors?

    How long does a colonial religion take to feel like an ancestral truth? Chidume in Nigeria questions how his culture adopted #Christianity after its imposition by the sword. The hosts discuss shifting baseline syndrome and generational normalization.
