How did humans become so sexually diverse? There’s gays, bi, pansexual, people who don’t even really have a way they like to describe their sexuality. Beyond that, kinks for everything you can imagine. Kinks for things that aren’t even healthy, so common there’s people like chubby chasers. Then there’s things like pedophiles, necrophilia, bestiality and so much more going on. How did we end up this way? What purpose could this has served or been an effect of?

High school shit

I've been studying physics for who knows how long. Still, whenever I open a high school physics book I find exercises that make me scratch my head. And it's always Newtonian mechanics. I've clearly skipped that part when I was in high school.

I realized I'm probably too dumb to study physics. However, instead of giving up and finding something easier, I picked up the high school text book and decided to force myself to understand the parts that give me trouble.

Currently wondering what the fuck happens when you stand on a scale as an elevator goes down and decelerates. The scale now shows a larger number. Let's say you weigh 62,0 kg, now the scale says 74,3 kg. What's the acceleration of the elevator? My reasoning is in pic related.

What are the things in the universe that “just is”?

As in, what are the concepts, constants, and interactions that have no known internal mechanisms that cause it?

Is the ratio of a circle to its radius pi for a reason? Would it be reasonable to expect the ratio be the same for all of existence?

Is there a way to predict the properties of hypothetical elements? As in, if we didn’t discover Uranium, would it be possible to predict that an element with 92 protons would be radioactive, can react in all the ways uranium is known to act, and has the spectral lines that uranium is known to have? Or is this unknown and
we, at the moment, have to treat it as a “just is” emergent property?

Is learning math the same as learning a new language? Does this mean it would be easier for young children to learn topics such as logic and group theory compared to adults?

why the fuck aren't we taking 18 century steam machines and use XXI century science to create cheap steam machines that literally use biowaste to boil water to make the machines run?
