Even in the Western half of the empire a lot of the elites spoke Greek. For example: while he would definitely have been capable of speaking Latin, Marcus Aurelius wrote Meditations in Greek.

That’s not true

One of the NPCs in your main camp will complain if you stay in the camp for a while.
This one annoyed me, to be honest. He’s like “Arthur, Arthur, you need to go out and earn some money for the camp!”, but when you look at the logbook most of the NPCs are bringing in about a dollar fifty per day in pocket watches and so on, whereas I’ve paid in over a thousand bucks in the past week and have singlehandedly bankrolled every single improvement to the camp since the game’s start. Ungrateful sons of bitches…

Sorry, I wasn’t trying to claim that your gut biome doesn’t effect your mood, just that the serotonin in your gut isn’t making it’s easy to the serotonin receptors in your brain that make you feel happy

Any scientific definition of ‘fish’ which includes all the things we commonly consider to be fish also includes basically all animal life on earth (including humans and, presumably, pterodactyls).

The serotonin in your gut can’t pass through the gut-blood barrier, and therefore never reaches your brain, so it has no effect whatsoever on your ability to feel happy.
Unripe bananas are full of serotonin (which breaks down to melotonin as they ripen), but the only effect that has on your body is to give you diarrhoea.

Their laws don’t allow online advertising (or something, I’m not clear on the actual details).
No ads on YouTube, Spotify can still play ads for premium (but they don’t make any money from them), and you can play mobile games without having to deal with ads too.
- Comment on Why is the US so into Israel? 3 months ago:
they also believe god meant for the existence of poor people. blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth (while the rich and famous go to heaven)
Which is funny when you remember that Jesus explicitly stated that rich people don’t get into heaven.

It’s worth mentioning that Alan Watts was a chronic alcoholic who drank himself to death in his 50s. Maybe he should have picked that phone back up from time to time.

Shroom’s don’t even need to be dried. In fact, fresh shrooms are more potent - they just don’t store very well and are less pleasant to chew.
