Real talk: all most of those space pics you see are actually "photoshopped" to colorize them. The originals are grainy black and white photos and are processed to enhance the visibility of their structure. Basically if you hopped in your space machine and looked out the window, that's not actually what you'd see.

What do you think guys???

I had a requester email me a link as a follow up to a HIT I did for him earlier. What he wants are ID's from other workers to send them the link????? He wants me to gather them. I will get a dollar and anyone that signs up for the survey will get a dollar also??? The link is up.. Do you want me to post the job and let me know what think? His TO is good and I got paid from him before? Would you feel comfortable sending me your worker ID? I don't know if I would, but I guess it would be okay? What do you guys think? Want me to put up the link? Is this a SCAM? I dunno...seeking advice from the round table here.
That sounds sketchy. If he's trying to get more workers to do his HIT, tell him to come to a forum and post about it!

plus if a guy just wants workerIDs, you can easily just find lists all over Google from requesters who have them hosted on their websites, github acts, etc

Lol. It was so bizarre finding out that everything I had been taught about nutrition as a child was a lie. (food pyramid)

I have come to the conclusion pretty much EVERYTHING we've been told is a lie. As far as food goes, if they tell you not to do it--do it! I am 62 and I eat tons of butter and eggs and salt and I am healthier than anyone I know who is my age.

Low carb diet helped me immensely.
I lost 20 pounds doing that. If you lower it to 70g or less a day, you'll lose weight....like everyday.
Thats what happened to me.
i ate strawberries yesterday after not eating any fruit for like 5 weeks.
i felt so spoiled! they were barely even ripe, but they were the best tasting strawberries ever.

Food pyramid is so messed up because lobbyists for the grain/farming industry wanted tons of people to eat that stuff because the farms get subsidies for growing it, so obviously Americans should be eating a ton of it! Except that that's not actually healthy at all. I'll step off my soap box here but if you want to read more: http://fee.org/freeman/how-government-makes-us-fatter/

Not related to anything, but sometimes space doesn't even look real. But it sure is pretty.
That's because light pollution keeps us from seeing it and also those pictures are altered.

Norovirus.
Dude, don't joke about that. I had that. It is one of the most miserable things.

Vomiting out both your ends, sore throat, body ache, headache, listlessness, fever, weakness, fatigue for like A WEEK.

It is MEGA miserable.

It scared my roommates so bad they said they were going to drag me to the hospital. I would pass out into pools of my own sweat and drool after vomiting.

Seriously. MISERABLE.

Welp, mommy fail today. The kid got hives two weeks ago after having milk so we were advised to cut out dairy until her doc sees her. That totally slipped my mind this morning while making breakfast for everyone. Poor thing barfed three times in a span of 15min about a half hr after eating. Hope everyone else is having a better afternoon.
