Oooo minus psychiatric stuff - I have sectoral heterochromia in one of my eyes and have pretty small ears and they are uneven with one being a cm smaller than the other. I also have suspiciously small hands and a little toe which makes buying shoes a pain. My metabolism is stupidly fast as well
Ok query time. Biology is messy and full of exceptions. How does *your* body differ from the usual expected of you as the human you are? Anything big or small.
My mum has an extra vertebrae, a close friend multiple spleens. One sis is built like she works out but eats like a sparrow.

"Getting a robot to use the treadmill for you at the gym doesn't make you any fitter"

Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

Believe it or not the use of facial recognition technology makes me feel more unsafe than safe. Who knew that being watched when out in town makes you feel paranoid?

At Belfast City Hall for TDor. Was heading towards the toilets and it looked like I was going to the women's so a member of staff shouted 'Sir, sir' after me to direct me to the men's. Little does she know she should have told me to just wet myself.

A High Court judge has forced a six-year-old girl to keep the surname of the man who raped her mother. We think this is an outrage and are putting together a legal team so D's mother can take her case to the European Court of Human Rights.
But we need your help. goodlawproject.org/crowdfunder/...

The law has failed a woman and her child – fight back
No survivor should face harm from the very system that is meant to protect them. No child should have to carry an abuser’s name. It’s time to change the system.

Just watched YouTube’s attempt at auto-dubbing our latest episode of Map Men (out tomorrow) into French.
It’s not perfect (I mean, even a dub done by a team of professional human translators and actors can’t be completely perfect)… but it’s pretty damn good.

Were you or do you know someone who was an assistance dog handler in the UK in the 00s? I need your help!
I am researching older assistance dog guidance and the old DRC document states there was a card from the Institute of Health given out. Any information on this card would be very appreciated!
