Ooh, this IS interesting! I am particularly intrigued to learn more about how the DNA was mis-folded, and whether further understanding of Epigenetics could lead to treatments to reverse it..?
This also has massive implications for related co-morbid conditions.

For a while now Iβve been wondering why google keeps offering to translate my emails into Polish. None of them are related to Poland or addressed to Polish people?
I just realised it meant βto polishβ them, i.e. tidy up. Hope the writers & language nerds over at #langsky appreciate this. π΅π±π€π€¦ββοΈπ€π€£

Closely bunched bright pink stems growing out of the soil, the top two thirds of the stems are surrounded by leaves. The stems and veins on the leaves are pink while the leaves themselves are green.
Hereβs a pic of the leaves of the beetroot plant, in case anyone is wondering what Iβm talking about. I canβt believe how much food we humans just waste when we only use the root..!

White bread sandwich on a white plate covered in a questionable bright pink liquid, which has soaked into the bread. Itβs actually the watery mayo liquid from the coleslaw, which has been stained by the beetroot stalks. The ham, cheese and coleslaw sandwich has some pieces of coleslaw spilling out onto the plate.
Not sure who needs to hear this but if you cut out the central maroon stem from beetroot leaves, they are like beetroot flavoured celery, and you can add them to homemade coleslaw and MAKE IT PINK AND IT IS LUSH. The green beetroot leaves can also be added to salads or cooked like spinach.

Working in a public #library has been going really well up until my last two shifts, which have both ended with an obstinate customer arriving within 5 minutes of closing time and expecting a full library service with really random extra requests because they are standing at the service desk.

Sadly I think there is a lot of truth in that. The system doesnβt want people who think for themselves because they might start questioning the system and be βwokeβ enough to poke holes in it! The system wants a population that conforms, not questions.

Which is so boring. And it teaches kids that learning is just about memorising stuff, not actually applying anything that they learn or observe. No wonder so many are disenfranchised. By the time they get to the level where they have to actually think about anything they complain it is too hard..
