OH YM GOD THATS A BIG FUCKKN MOOD, i just took a chem midterm and stoichiometry KICKED MY ASS SO HARD, idk why im telling u this i just wanted to say GOOD LUCK BECAUSE UR GONNA NEED IT
oH hell thanks anon!!!! i’ve been trying to teach myself stoichiometry for the past two months and then i’m like ‘shit i’ve got a test on it tomorrow i better gear up and face death’ and i dID IT completely against my own expectations (〃´∀`) i will not disappoint you!!!!

Hey I really enjoy your blog and have been slowly moving away from religion over the past couple years. The only thing I can’t seem to shake is growing up going to church I was raised Pentecostal. I was always forced to try accept the “Holy Ghost” into my life to help me dance and speak in “tongue” for or to Jesus. Looking back at the experience it all seems crazy to me but when I was about 16 after spending 30min people praying over me I started speaking in “tongue”. How do you explain this?
Hi, and thank you.
Glossolalia as learned behavior: An experimental demonstration.
60 18–44 yr old undergraduates listened to a 60-sec sample of glossolalia (defined to them as pseudolanguage) and then attempted to produce glossolalia on a 30-sec baseline trial. Afterward, half of the Ss received 2 training sessions that included audio- and videotaped samples of glossolalia interspersed with opportunities to practice glossolalia. Also, live modeling of glossolalia, direct instruction, and encouragement were provided by an experimenter. Both the trained Ss and untreated controls attempted to produce glossolalia on a 30-sec posttest trial. About 20% of Ss exhibited fluent glossolalia on the baseline trial, and training significantly enhanced fluency. 70% of trained Ss spoke fluent glossolalia on the posttest. Findings are more consistent with social learning than with altered state conceptions of glossolalia. (13 ref) (PsycINFO Database Record © 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
It’s also just babbling - there’s no language structure to it, nor does it engage the language center of the brain. That is, they’re literally not speaking.
Tumblr media
People rambling incoherently about “god” is not especially remarkable. What would be more remarkable is these “speaking in tongues” people speaking in fluent Aramaic, Hebrew or Ancient Greek revealing properties about the universe we haven’t yet discovered but will be able to test for, to confirm extraordinary, divinely provided knowledge. Jesus, for example, could have provided info about the Avagadro constant or the speed of light, or explained about germs, but instead decided to wander the desert, incite family members to hate each other, and destroy fig trees.
Tumblr media
Get anyone worked up into a frenzy of movement, emotion, heavy breathing, endorphins, coaxing and expectation and I’d be surprised if wacky shenanigans didn’t come as a result. It is, after all, the same principle behind “faith healing” - at least, the ones that aren’t outright lies.
Tumblr media
Of note, glossolalia occurs in other religions and countries as well (note that the students in the above experiment were non-believers), which results in the same “which god?”-type problems afflicting other types of god claims. For instance, it’s just as reasonable for me to propose that it’s Odin trying to communicate with the world in Old Norse, to guide them to Valhalla.

\(\textbf{Bioelectrochemistry}\) \[\textit{Nernst-Planck Equation}\]
We have, after obtaining the relationship between the diffusion constant, \(D\), and mobility, \(\mu\), the following expression for the total drift
\[J_{\Sigma}=- \frac{kT\mu}{q} \frac{\partial [C]}{\partial x}-\mu z [C] \frac{\partial V}{\partial x}\]
Let \(u\) be the molar mobility, such that
\[u=\frac{\mu}{A}\]
Where Avagadro’s constant, \(A\), is the number of particles in one mole. Faraday’s constant, \(F\) is the charge of one mole of electrons, where the charge of one electron is \(q\). \(zF\) is therefore the charge of one mole of homogenous ions with \(z\) being the nominal charge, or valence of the ion.
\[zF=zAq\]
Therefore
\[\mu z =uz^2F \]
The ideal gas constant, \(R\), which relates the kinetic energy of molecules to their temperature, is equivalent to the Boltzmann constant \(k\) for one mole of molecules
\[R=Ak\]
Therefore
\[\frac{kT\mu}{q}=\frac{uzFRT}{F}=uzRT\]
After these conversions, we can write the total flux equation, or the Nernst-Planck equation as follows
\[J_{\Sigma}=I=-\left( uzRT \frac{\partial [C]}{\partial x}+ uz^2F[C]\frac{\partial V}{\partial x}\right)\]

Torture for Info is Illogical.
Why torturing for information fails all logic tests:
1) The frailty & incredibly dodgy aspect of the biological memory process.
The memory process is stored in fragile structures of chemistry, electricity & genetics.
It is extremely prone to physiological inconsistencies.
It is easily damaged by physical trauma.
It is extremely affected by psychology, social pressure & influences, immediate emotions & distorted by deep roots of experience [phobias, biases, etc.].
In short it is not very reliable,
One hundred times so under duress.
2) The 'importance metric' variance from person to person.
Each person is very different in what they consider 'important', ie. the things they choose to not forget.
Genetics, culture, individual experience & interpretations thereof affect what we think is significant & what is especially important to remember.
3) The complete mismatch between trans-dimensional diffuse, complex reality and our moronic idea(s) of the clunky 'certain', 'eternal', 'truth'.
We all have this reflex notion that the truth is a singular, absolute, eternal, [relativily] simple & clear.
If you beat things all around & shatter them the truth will magically pop out whole & intact, like a cartoon?
The 'sword of truth', if you will.
Wow! What could be further from the actual truth?
An examination of physical reality has it very complex. Avagadro's number [ 10^23] is the number of hydrogen atoms in a gram of hydrogen, & if you have that much measured hydrogen, very likely it is not all 100% hydrogen, adding to more complex messiness.
Actual reality is complicated. Some things hold together into managible mostly singular coherent constructs. Even those things can break under certain conditions at the right location.
Important portions of reality are very diffuse, like the oxygen laden air we need to breathe to sustain life & consciousness.
Think about the electro-polar electro-static storm that is a single drop of life sustaining water.
Electrons have various spin & other quantum characteristics. Other atomic particles are made up of some recipe of several quarks with their specific quantum states.
Quasi-particles are coming into & out of existence all the time which causes the casimir effect, when two flat plates are a too short distance apart for these quasi-particles to emerge from & the external pressure pushes them together.
Think about all the micro-gravity wells around each atom that aggregate together to create large object gravity wells.
Trying to comprehend all the total complexity of even some macro-scale limited span of all this is impossible.
Now imagine the very likely possiblity that other universes exist somewhere[somewhen?] else & then what ever might exist as reject detritus between universes.
Coherence is always transitory at best.
Wouldn't suprise me a bit if the speed of light & other so-called 'constants' gradually change over the long spans of the universe.
Actual complete truth is incomprehensible.
Our brains want & probably psychologically need to believe exactly the opposite.
One of the main functions of the brain is to find extremely simplified behaviors to deal with an incomprehensibly complex reality. Luckily that works well enough often enough to make it mostly worth the effort.
4) How are the murky thought processes of torturers 'deciding' which victim screams are the 'truth' or not?
The torturer is aledgedly torturing the victim precisely because they DON'T know what the truth is.
Yet they have already decided this victim knows some objectified 'truth' they care about.
Wow! how exactly does that make logical sense? it doesn't. They are psychic? Prescient? They guess? They hope?
Flag waving lovers of fascism flying blind, not a stepwise structure of logic.
Torture is not done by sensible people.
Torturers don't dare admit they screwed up, e - v - e - r , because then the public will see it is an outrageous, horrific war crime by villains in power.
How the heck do they supposedly 'know' what the 'truth' is when they hear it?
Isn't is about 100 times more likely they halt the torture when they hear something juicy they WANT to believe, or think their bosses will want to hear.
What one wants to hear is independent of actual facts.
Isn't most probable a victim is fabricating melodramas to stop the pain? Managing to believe them so to deliver them with conviction.
The victim most often rattles on & on till some particular litany halts the source of pain.
The torturer's rabid, ballistic brain is going to be the delicate compass of what the actual, delicate, empiric truth/reality is?
The only actual way to determine if someone is telling a truth/fact is to verify it with corroborating evidence.
5) There is not & never will be a body of honest data that supports the false notion that torture is an effective means of deriving information.
As to the American Psychological Association getting 80 million plus dollars to ramp up torture techniques for the US government,
they have all the intellectual rigor of the Spanish Inquisition,
which is to say they are money parasitic, certified
intellectual trash.
What is the REAL use of torture as a tool?
It is the tool of police state terrorists,
used to instigate fear, horror & intimidation in populations they want to tyrannize.
Let me lay out a recent & illustrative example:
https://billingsgazette.com/news/state-and-regional/montana/waterboarded-terrorist-fabricated-montana-recruiting-effort/article_8636a8fe-1096-5a81-b5f2-83e72b3a6cc5.html
When Khalid Sheikh Mohammed was tortured he said there was a terrorist plot to blow up gas stations in Montana.
The FBI spent millions determining it was a false claim, & Khalid Sheikh Mohammed subsequently admitted he lied.
They kept torturing him, until he confessed he was the mastermind behind 911.
Wow, do you believe that either?
But 'authorities' left that one out there for public consumption,
and paraded it in their show trial,
without even going to the bother of verifiying it.
Why?
Because it fit their agenda.
That made the public think there was closure on the 'official' narrative
AND torture was the self-justified 'key'.
Me?
Having looked at the addmittedly crude video of the Pentagon on 911 i have yet to find a 757 plane in it. That's a pretty large jetplane.
There is a fireball explosion, but there is no 757 that precipitates it.
but what do i know? How dare i use my own eyeballs!
Authorities become married to authority & most of them will do anything to maintain the grip on power.
The only defense you can guarantee is your own skepticism, whenever you hear something & then if possible critically examining it against your own experience, & other, reliable sources.
Call me the Duke of Doubt.
Don't trust the Messiah of Mistrust when he/she/it shows up. They are LYING! They are the deceiving anti-skeptic! 666 on you all! LOL.
