your gravity vector changes(very slightly) depending on the density of the material around you. there were some spiral tunnels being built 100+ years ago going through the mountains that didn't take this into account. they blasted the tunnel out from both ends and they didn't line up in the middle where they had planned to line up.
ooo interesting, where were these tunnels built?
spiral tunnels where the Canadian Pacific railway crosses the Rockies. famous story for surveyors. all our instruments depend on gravity being down to the center of the earth. but what happens when you have a mound of ironish minerals on one side of your project? lots of investors money being lost is what. Back in the days when it was honest mistakes losing you money.
In some species of Anglerfish, the male will bite onto the underside of the much larger female. His body fuses with the female and his body shrivels, leaving only his reproductive organs.

Probably not, the males are tiny.

“vitamin” A is in fact not a vitamin in that it is unnecessary for life. What’s more it’s actually a poison. A slow sneaky poison. We’ve been duped in more ways than you’ll ever know. #vitaminAtoxicity
🧐 any studies on this?
The general idea is that vitamin A is not easily excreted and this eventually builds up in the body, especially the liver, which leads to toxic levels in the body. However, the only studies that really show vitamin A as toxic are from synthetic vitamin A or taking large doses of vit A supplements. Vitamin A in your diet should not be something to worry about imo. Just do not eat a pound of liver a day because that might cause some problems lol
Liver is definitely poisonous to eat in more ways than one. I posted some links in this thread to some very helpful videos and ebooks if you want to get started. Those two researchers have done a really good job debunking a lot of those myths. It’s been a mind blowing journey learning all of that
Lots and lots of studies. I put some links to videos from a researcher that I learned most of that from. I’ve watched all of his public videos on YouTube and am in his private network as well. Also you can read three free ebooks from https://ggenereux.blog/my-ebooks/ to get started down that 🐇 🕳️
