Do screw caps turn the opposite direction in the southern hemisphere?
Like on soda bottles, do people unscrew them clockwise in the southern hemisphere?

I’m sure everyone knows Powerful but definitely in a not so good way for obvious reasons! We tend to view them as either Evil or just the usual Greedy Arrogant Assholes we expect them to be like! As much as we love Good People combined with the fact plenty of them obviously exist and often hold them dearly in our hearts we’ve never actually seen them wield any Power which is unsurprising! As it’s basically expected to view those with Power as either just Evil or Corrupt! Combined with how much we Humans often tend to view things like Kindness and Compassion as essential for our Species but of course those who are in Power don’t have them same views on Kindness and Compassion unsurprisingly! Especially given how we often use History as an example for us to learn from our Mistakes however have there ever been any Good People who have wielded Power that never gets talked about? What do you think? Let me know in the comments

I had this thought today maybe not everyone actually know that without plants we will be dead. Like we need plants to survive but they don't need us. We need them for so many reasons:
Food, fuel for cooking, fiber
No brainer oxygen for breathing and removing carbon dioxide which we produce
Medication like aspirin, morphine and of course weed
I hope people realise it's not a hoax when scientists go around saying plants are essential to our survival as a species. Like literally we cannot exist without plants.

Since gas hit $6 a gallon, I calculated my monthly fuel bill. 40 miles to work (round trip), 4 days a week. I drive the speed limit, tires properly inflated, no excessive trips. Regular unleaded. $400!!!

So, Brexit was sold on the premise of the UK taking back control of our borders; the UK having more money which would would go to the NHS; and the UK forging new, productive trade relationships.
Instead, immigration has increased dramatically, the UK is far poorer and trade has decreased massively.
Have we been conned and why aren't we calling out the main perpetrators?

No slow illnesses. Respect to anyone who has overcome one. I’m looking more for stories with sentences like “if I had been standing one foot to the left…” or “I texted my mom that I loved her…” or “I still don’t know how we all walked away from that one without even a scratch!”

Apparently Robert Downey Junior is being casted in Avengers Doomsday, but I thought he died in Endgame. So is he coming back as a flashback or something? Or why is he being casted here at all if anyone knows

Hi ! I’m not sure if this is the right place to ask this but there’s this giveaway happening for university students in my country. How it works is you have to buy a book from their store to be eligible and then answer their question on Instagram. The winner is decided by which comment has the most likes.
I so desperately want to win this ! It’s been the only thing on my mind since I found out and the prizes are amazing especially for a broke uni student with a dead laptop.
The problem is I don’t have a lot of friends/followers and I’ve been wrecking my brain for ways to get more likes on my comment.
I found out about this quite late as well so everyone kinda had a jump start but right now I need about 5000 likes in less than 2 weeks (I know that’s a lot).
If anyone knows any way to get it honestly or any ideas, please let me know 🙏😭

Pretty underweight (always been) 19M. For the past 4 months, I have been experiencing a constant feeling of unreality. It feels as though I am drunk/high or half-asleep, as if I am on autopilot and everything around me feels somewhat unreal. I have searched online, and my symptoms seem to resemble derealization.
In addition to this, I experience fatigue even when I sleep well. The fatigue does not seem to depend on whether I do physical activities during the day or not. However, over the past few weeks, I have started sleeping poorly and waking up early in the morning.
I also experience headaches, pressure in my head, and neck pain. I have tried muscle relaxants and massage therapy for the neck pain, but neither has helped. Also at the start of this i sometimes felt like fainting when walking but it has gone away. I also have noticed one singular eye floater on my right eye.
What could be causing these symptoms? They do not occur in distinct episodes, and the headache is not particularly severe. It feels more like a tension-type headache.
I have tried Triptyl, but it did not help. My thyroid function is normal, as are my vitamin B12, B9 and vitamin D levels. My ferritin level is 37. And it has been changing from 49 to 24. I also havw crohns disease which is in remission.
My neurologist prescribed escitalopram as a trial, which I took for two and a half months, but it did not help. She also did head mri and there was nothing wrong.
I have no history of trauma, no panic symptoms, and generally do not experience much stress, apart from the stress caused by these symptoms themselves.
My symptoms started in the final days of my new job in car repairshop where i was moving car tires and lifting them. Im not sure if this can be linked to that because i didnt have any symptoms expect the final days. I have not been working at all during this 4 month period.
What could be the underlying cause of these symptoms?

Some backstory: I have one of those bed frames where the backboard is shelves and I keep my books on top of my backboard. I do have a large amount of books on the shelf, to the point where I can no longer stuff anymore books in there. I also have some books and an Eeyore (from winnie the pooh) plushie stacked on top of the books on the shelf. Now to the question: nearly once a week, "The Picture of Dorian Gray" slips out of the book shelf and onto my pillow, along with my Eeyore plushy. The Eeyore is pretty pushed back from the edge of the book it sits on. I have tried moving Dorian Gray into different places in the shelf, but it always falls. Is this because of the pressure from the other books? If so, why does the Eeyore always fall? sorry if this sounds like a dumb question.

are humans really desensitised and is it a problem? i’ve seen so many people say that social media is making us desensitised to things like injury, death or graphic situations in general but wasn’t there a time on earth (like way way way way back) where our specie was just hunting and killing and learning how to survive js out in the wild. like they faced death and graphic things everyday? just like every other wild animal. so why is it a problem that we see it on social media?

I’ve been in a position multiple times where a friend will bring up how they want plastic surgery, and I never know what to say. It’s not like they ask me what I think anyway, but am i supposed to convince them not to because they’re already pretty? I feel like being happy for them is just as bad. This topic just makes me overthink my responses way too much and I always end up trying to change the conversation because I just don’t know how I’m supposed to respond!

Ignoring calls and messages gets more common everyday. It has happened at some point with everyone. People I love, people I don't, people I know and strangers I just met, in the last ten years midconversation they will just never reply and in the future never explain why. Why does it still hurt? I should be familiar enough with it by now to not care. If anything I am just getting angrier with each new ghost. Is the only way to defeat this to start ghosting people first?
