If your underwear gives you a wedgie completely on its own, that means you have agentic underwear.

Oh I misunderstood your question. You’re looking to relate pre-potato diets to later potato consumption preferences?

I don’t think potatoes were in Europe until after the Spanish brought them back from the Americas a little after that period. Does your turnip theory extend to the mid 18th century?

You can tell that LotR was written by an academic because Gandalf disappears for like 20 years doing research to answer a single question.

Songs don’t save the world.
They save people.

Quick question: is higher education

a) a Rube Goldberg machine for sorting humans into a class structure

b) an upskilling program for future job havers

c) a way to armor a person’s mind & soul for an unpredictable/volatile world

d) a adult daycare that funds research

e) something else?

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from OkjΓΆkull to Ok (jΓΆkull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

Also. Here’s a pink snail that dances around your face that you didn’t ask for. We didn’t give you agency over your profile decoration because we think people really don’t like to make choices about how they present them selves to strangers and friends.

They don’t want you to know this, BUT if you don’t like a piece of candy in an assortment you don’t have to eat it.

Lemon Starbursts? - throw em out.

Yellow Sour Patch Kids? - in the bin.

Even your Regular Kids - don’t like one? Drop him off at the bus stop.
