Actually, adenosine is adenine with a ribose attached by a glycosidic bond, which is the D/R in DNA/RNA.

You’ve got it! It’s adding a third phosphate group to adenosine to store energy. Interestingly, it’s the same adenosine as the ‘A’ base in DNA & RNA.

2m =/= 6’8"

Not just that, but real rewards for solid negative results. Knowing how something doesn’t work is almost more important than a solid idea about how it does work.

Debate and consensus is the point of the UN. However, the US continues to use its veto in the UNSC to block resolutions related to Israel… Consequences are indeed needed, but I wouldn’t be quick to blame the UN as such.

ESH? Everyone’s a Shit Head?

Explanation?

“Wat? FR? Free water?”

Some inflation is a good thing. It keeps money moving, which is absolutely crucial to the system as it is. Wages do need to rise with or outpace it, though.

Infiltration. Not sure which direction though. 🤨

Israel is slowly losing the support it needs to get away with this genocide…

I’m at a loss for words how this ruthless, mass killing of civilians can keep happening, despite the mountains of evidence that it is. This genocide Israel is perpetrating with western weapons is truely sickening. And normal people are cheering this on…

I really don’t like this attitude. It’s just smugness about medical knowledge, because it’s often paired with a hate for people that come in for things that are easily googlable… Directing people HOW and WHEN to do research would be so much more productive for a working doctor-patient relationship.

Oh to be young.

Somehow both the most and least scary thing on the list…

Not only that, but CICO on its own terms just isn’t at all useful. It’s like saying “the cure to poverty is to make more than you spend.” Like, no shit. It’s just fully handwaving in terms of anything actionable. What are the barriers to exertion? What effect does food type have on feeling satiated? Is there a biochemical mechanism? Psychological? Social?

It’s just an absurd reduction to “personal responsibility” that seems to be the default answer to any widespread, population level problems that the speaker doesn’t really understand.

That sounds an awful lot like restaurants and jobs…

Try 60+. It’s good for your health.

I really want this to happen but I’m worried the scales in the West will tip in the wrong direction, further toward true and open fascism… We (yes, you reading this) have a personal responsibility to be informed and speak out as best we can. This history is not yet written — we have to write it.

The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence.

I know nothing about you or your situation, but food allergies can really mess up your life, and they’re often overlooked (speaking from experience).
