Simping for a sea-king like some kinda mythic hero tied to a pole as he watches sirens."But if he is destined to reach his native land, to cum once more to his own house and see his friends again, let him cum late"Cursed by the gods, indeed.*notices Poseidon's bulgie wulgie* https://t.co/7hh3hOzKhP https://t.co/FJ7fRTHAYl


"Reproduction is weird as sh*t. So you can't really blame the Egyptians, Greeks, ancient Chinese and Arabic cultures for trying to figure out the mystery in their own terms, even if what they came up with was, erm, a bit off."https://t.co/SzsTneWlnj

Yet again I have come to tell you that those myths are based on real physiology. The "vital heat" of your testes is a metaphor about how if you get them too hot or too cold it impedes Spermatogenesis.And "vital forces" do coincide with seminal virility. https://t.co/qX9EKYuZQa

But... I did find this... "A man's semen count is a marker of his general health, according to the largest study to date evaluating semen quality, reproductive function and metabolic risk in men referred for fertility evaluation."https://t.co/R8WRReMghA https://t.co/VopgSDDw0b


An idea I've got stuck in my head: to explore sense of smell impact by bacteria, and if chemosensing in the nose via pesticides is plausibly having proxies with gonadal signaling of microbial 'brews' that may or may no simply be immune cells. https://t.co/IVCgZfkNke

Make the gods fear us again.Get Poseidon so angy that he curses you to roam for 10 years before finally cumming home.https://t.co/Uu3vJVr072

Heaven forbid somebody violate a cultural naming convention.No literally, this is treated as taboo +affront to god.I wanna change my name formerly to 'ape', but everybody IRL throws a fit.I want my name to be [ ] like what Odysseus told the cyclops to anger Poseidon.

Find a real one-eyed giant and tell them that you nicknamed your giggle stick "Polyphemus" in tribute.https://t.co/EulnbMQjix

Then ask if he wouldn't mind being called Willy.https://t.co/LHDQkpeQzY

If the good lord of the sea so blessed me with the wisdom of athena, I sure as ah-hyuck am gonna use dick jokes to try to cure cancer.https://t.co/WipeNXZ7uB

What do you mean we have entire series of brain developmental disorders that could be caused by endogenous alcohol production.Everybody Laughed. https://t.co/BktoBQqCeo https://t.co/DRHrjq8XRU


"This particular strain of K. pneumoniae was making between four and six times the quantity of alcohol that strains of the same bacteria make in healthy people." https://t.co/nDNoo2ODb3

Can I make Poseidon laugh about how his son's cyclopia was driven by gut bacteria and not the sea Nymph Thoösa drinking too much while she danced?Imagine: to tell Poseidon that nobody was responsible for his son's eyes being weird.It would be *epic*.https://t.co/dC8mc9dMEa

"Klebsiella pneumoniae producing bacterial toxin colibactin as a risk of colorectal cancer development - A systematic review" https://t.co/DrK5r4zt5h https://t.co/OKpguGfW1S


"Preclinical and clinical evidence of the association of colibactin-producing Escherichia coli with anxiety and depression in colon cancer." https://t.co/OTtrPuGTr6Does that mean Klebsiella Pneumoniae with PKS genes is also causing this?

Hmm. HMMMM. Sound bad."Meanwhile, colibactin induces double strand breaks in host DNA." https://t.co/6dkAkrAAro https://t.co/1QpTiASuwA


This might cause brain development problems? Maybe drive autism? "Cell lines from individuals with macrocephalic autism spectrum disorder have an increased number of double-strand breaks in the DNA of long neural genes." https://t.co/VDGIi15xzy

It seems that colibactin thing is pretty important for gut health."Our studies represent a substantial advance toward our understanding of causative rather than correlative relationships between the gut microbiome and human health." https://t.co/szOxKccYEU

Ever the cynic, but never a sin.https://t.co/hIOUzMgJ0s
