Unless “the mitochondria” is a singular group noun, like in “The Village People is a band”, or “This [set of] data was collected…”

- Comment on Why does everyone put celery in soup stock? 1 month ago:
It’s one of the those aromatic vegetables (along with carrots and onions, etc. ) that for most people (obviously not yourself) adds a background flavor that is not overpowering or offensive. It makes your soup taste like soup instead of salty chicken-water or bean-water. Its also fairly inexpensive compared to more meats and spices.

Basketball was invented using peach baskets. So the NBA will have to become the National Fruitball League (NFL)

- Comment on Is laying on your stomach every once in a while good for you? 1 month ago:
Usually propped up on an elbow or two. Holding the book out or letting it lay flat in the ground.
Sometimes resting with my chin on the ground, my elbows splayed outward so I can hold the book upright in front of me and my knees bent with my feet up in the air like a fleshy scorpion.

You may misunderstand me. I never said it was healthy to smash things. OP asked if it was normal to get upset over a broken mundane object and I pointed out that we don’t get to choose what triggers us to feel. How you channel the energy of those emotions is another question entirely.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
We don’t get to choose when emotions will take us. This morning I broke down over a Pokémon short because it reminded me someone I love has cancer. They have no connection to Pokémon whatsoever, and I haven’t watched Pokémon in years. It was just a sweet short and it got me going.

I don’t have an exact match to what your looking for, but a couple things come to mind.
Having “selective hearing” is when someone fails to recognize that someone (usually a partner or a parent) is speaking to them or fails to comprehend what was said, but is otherwise sufficiently capable of holding a conversation.
The implication is that they are able (or choose) to ignore questions and requests when they don’t wish to answer or undertake them.
“Willful ignorance” or “being willfully ignorant” is when someone refuses to engage in understanding something when given the opportunity or discounts arguments that challenge their presuppositions.
This isn’t exclusive to verbal communication but it does imply they are some sort of discourse that they are choosing to ignore.

Counterpoint to 1: Your microbiome is massive. You are constantly emitting bacteria. It surrounds you in a cloud like Pig Pen from the Peanuts comics. The reason you have different bacteria on your face and balls is not because they can’t get from one place to the other; it is because they can’t survive/compete there.

I mean…. It does and it doesn’t. Yes, al-Qarawiyyin was founded as a mosque. Yes, it became a “university” within the last 100 years. But there was a looong span of time between where it was an institution of higher learning not formally classified as a “university”
Paragraph 4 of the article you linked specifically notes that such institutions with mixed provenance were omitted from the list.
Ancient higher-learning institutions, such as those of … the Islamic world, are not included in this list owing to their cultural, historical, structural and legal differences from the medieval European university… These include the University of al-Qarawiyyin… founded as mosques in 859… These developed associated madrasas… by 1129 for al-Qarawiyyin…
Basically it is the oldest educational institution that is currently a university, as opposed to the institution having operated under the university model for the longest time.
