Yes. It is well established by both subjective experience and science that humans can identify other humans by scent.
It’s also established by science that even the subliminally-detected presence of non-unique chemicals will alter people’s behavior. People say that’s not a “pheromone” but I disagree.
Looks like you read the title and not the included text. You could find your SO in a crowd by smell alone? I don’t think so. Being able to identify your partner by smell if they’re standing in front of you, sure, I can buy that.
My Dad worked for Alcatel-Lucent when they got bought out by Nokia, which is when I found out it’s apparently pronounced “Noy-kia” and not “No-kia” like I thought it was for the longest (or else my Dad was just mispronouncing it). I’m sure there was some big changes he saw, but he pretty much worked from home the entire time, so it wasn’t a big transition that we saw, he just did the same old job, though I think they did move their actual offices from the East side of town to the North-west. He worked with them up until 2019 when he retired.
This how I used to get free chocolate bars. When it was hot out the vending machine at my work would warm the chocolate bars causing them to bloom, Effem and complain about my Mars bars and they would send me a coupon for for each chocolate bars. I would do it every month to a different address.
I just used the work address and different unit number but it always came to the same place.this was 24 years ago so the didn’t have Google maps to check.
Is that why there were so many darn anarchists there?
And yeah books to prisoners programs are both a means of direct action and of spreading anti carceral propaganda to those most effected. Not all programs are anarchist, but the one I helped with had a zine library that included a lot of stuff by former prisoners about the harm, ineffectiveness, and racist origins of the American prison system. Which was good because at least that was something they always had enough of unlike English-Spanish dictionaries. Seriously if you ever have any lying around donate it to a books for prisoners program. A lot of prisoners want to learn to communicate with those they’re locked in a cage with. And for anyone with more liberal sensibilities it’s also a form of self improvement that helps on the outside.
For those that are curious, the incomparable Matt Baume has some great videos on YouTube about the series and about Lear. I’m not American, I have no nostalgia for this series and have never seen it, and I still found it fascinating
I recently learned that chiropractors in Switzerland are very different. They are all medical doctors and need to fulfill strict requirements so they can work as chiropractor. It is also a common thing here to go to chiropractors and I have never heard of any accidents.
those are 'licensed physical therapists'.. the few good things that might be attributed to chiropractors are ready done by actual medical professionals... even here in the u.s.
the difference is, we allow quacks to pretend to be 'doctors' here. a certain subset of the population are drawn to the homeopathic, pseudo-science nature of it.
