Couldn't say. I've heard that your life flashes, for instance, to ease the process of dying, but I don't know why we'd evolve to be that sort of way. Wouldn't it be more beneficial for a species to fight to stay alive, rather than accepting death?
yes, and that's what your brain does when you're dying. it's attempting to stay alive somehow, so perhaps the release of DMT is its distress beacon
easing the process of dying, yeah
I think animals have a tendency to know when their time comes. For example, when dogs know when they're going to die, they're going to leave their home and just go to a place alone to rest in piece and then die peacefully. That's probably something similar to where humans might know when they're going to die, it just happens a bit faster than we know or something like that.
Or like how elephants go to their "graveyards" when they pass.
Yeah
It's probably the coping mechanism in all mammals that occurs
But it happens with humans in an instant: life flashing before your eyes, dead.
My time comes... "goddamn, that's a big pile".
Heh.
Bahaha
animals have a lot of instincts, some predicated on biology, interestingly enough
er, chemistry
rather
I want that to be my burial ritual. Just lay my corpse onto a boat, tie up a dozen live jews on it, and set the whole thing on fire. It'll be my toll to cross over to Valhalla.
like how you can tell the temperature by a cricket's stridulation. not really an instinct per se, but fucking cool. a better example would be how carrier pidgeons are affected by the magnetic forces around earth
i unironically want my body to be put in a pyre on a boat, and sent out to sea
@Fireball Bastard That'd be awesome, but the kikes might be extinct by that time huehuehue
How does that work, exactly? Can pigeons feel the shifting of iron in their blood, making them live compasses?
but unfortunately there's a lot of legality issues to that. the body doesn't burn fast enough with open flame : (
that's an interesting theory
>Hagstrum's paper, published online Wednesday in the Journal of Experimental Biology, proposes an intriguing theory for homing pigeon disorientation—that the birds are following ultralow frequency sounds back towards their lofts and that disruptions in their ability to "hear" home is what screws them up.
Called infrasound, these sound waves propagate at frequencies well below the range audible to people, but pigeons can pick them up, said Hagstrum

>Some researchers believe that the map mechanism relies on the ability of birds to detect the Earth's magnetic field. Birds can detect a magnetic field, to help them find their way home. Scientists[who?] have found that on top of a pigeon's beak large number of particles of iron are found which remain aligned to north like a man-made compass, thus it acts as compass which helps pigeon in determining its home.
so cool
I had a pretty good guess, it would seem.
Socialism in a nutshell: I do thing, give me money, fuck economics.
First step being entirely optional.
Wanting a job isn't a bad thing
Nah, but saying "I has degree, give me job naow" is pretty entitled.
such thoughts should not leave the cranium
One college degree vs 3 of almost everything yeah
Protip (one that no one needs, but I'll give it anyways): if you get a degree and you can't find a job, maybe you picked the wrong one.
;-;
but i thought my underwater basket weaving degree would surely be profitable!
rip
Tsss... you probably could've learned how to do that WITHOUT filling a jew's wallet.
hello
hey
