Fear might evoke various negative responses, from a weird feeling in the pit of the stomach to complete panic. Yet this emotion developed as a reflex crucial for humans to survive. It’s a natural reaction warning of a possible danger and the need to protect oneself.

Fear is responsible for the fight or flight instinct that arises when we’re in danger. But it's not only physical threats that can cause fear. Our thoughts might do that as well.

Take this list as an example. Reading the scary facts does not put you in actual danger, however, some of the posts are definitely enough to give you goosebumps. A survey from America’s top fears in 2020/2021 found that the death or illness of a loved one—a fear shared by numerous members of the online community—is in the top ten.

A two party system is not able to answer properly to the needs of the voters, they can only choose between two extremes and neither is fitting to the needs of the majority. The Netherlands overdo it with 21, it is impossible to make decisions and steer a country if every question needs to be discussed with everybody and every opinion needs to be evaluated. Keep it below ten and offer more than two choices. Germany learnt that lesson, google "Weimarer Republik"

She went to several media interviews and podcasts, to speak publicly about her experience and warn the girls of the dangers. The traffickers tried to abduct and silence her, but she fought back and escaped again (!!!). She 's my hero :)

Thousands of people drown every year trying to escape from torture, political persecutions, war and hunger, but the European governments are targeting NGOs who try to help them, so as to discredit them and prevent them from rescuing more people.

That Dopplegangers exist. They say that there are at least a couple people in the world that look exactly like you without being blood related and I met mine.

He was a f*****g criminal and got into trouble so many times with the law that I myself had been mistaken for him three times. The only difference was me having sleeves. My tattoos saved me from being mistaken for him who sexually assaulted a woman. I was brought in and put in a line up and she said herself, “that looks like him but he doesn’t have a single tattoo”. 4 hours later they found him and the sheriff’s department was dumbfounded that we weren’t twins. Like looking in a mirror. I was released and a more than needed apology was given by the chief of police and arresting officer.

Blame the AH doppleganger - the police were doing thing right here, it's a creepy set of coincidences that they got the wrong person originally.

How much our brains trick us "for our own good".

For instance, your brain does not record input from your eyes as they move. So if you are looking at object A and move your eyes from object A to object B, it does not record the motion blur as your eyes move.

Moreover, it accounts for this gap by taking the image you settle on and backfilling it in your memory, so you think the time your eyes spent in motion was actually spent looking at object B. The causes several optical illusions. Most notably, why a blinking light will seem to stay on or off longer when you first look at it. That's because your brain backfilled the image of it being on or off in your memory. It's easy to experience this. Just find a blinking light and look away, then look back at it. Unless it's timed just right, you will appear to observe the light being lit, or not, for just a split second longer than it should be.

The brain will also backfill details that are missing from your memories, sometimes making them up completely. It really makes you wonder just how much of what we see is actually real.

Rent is completely unreasonable. There really needs to be some kind of cap on rents in an area based on the income (net, not gross) of the jobs in the area and even on the property itself. An area where jobs pay minimum wage or slightly above where rent is 3k a month is ridiculous. And they can charge that on a property that has not been updated or there are serious problems with no real oversight. A single person who can only afford a 1300 a month rent (you'd need to make 42k to afford that), is now living in a place where 6 drug addicts are living upstairs in a 2 bedroom apt partying all night because they only need to come up with about 200 bucks a month each. So they party all night, are loud and generally make their neighbors all miserable. And we're stuck in it because we can't afford a 3k apartment where there are stricter rules and the landlords care a little more about what happens to the property and are more choosey about the people they let live there.

Pretty much impossible to survive any kind of impact from a semi

My mom told me a story of why she quit emt. A friend of hers head on'd a semi at about 35 mph so slow speed and...

The engine was in the woman's lap, the transmission in the back seats, the driveshaft snapped like spaghetti, the front end of the truck was gone and the woman... had to be scraped out of the truck, a job left to my mom.

Don't think she sleeps still it was almost 13 years ago.

I have a CDL (Bus driver, not trucks). Ordinary drivers do not realize how massively large some of these vehicles are. We need a lot of space to operate safely, and more importantly, stop. Leave lots of room, don't tailgate, and most important - don't cut me off.

You can spend half your life working your a*s off and sabotaging a social life for education, money, wealth and success and at the end of the day most people who focus that kind of lifestyle I feel are not completely satisfied or happy with their lives or with the work they put it, and at the end of the day its kind of all for nothing, when you die no one truly know if theres an after life or if its just a state of non existence but I’m willing to bet on my left kidney you cant take those riches and success with you, idk sometimes just being alive is absolutely terrifying but so incredibly beautiful at times the words of a poet couldn’t describe the feelings and emotions that come with experiences throughout the journey of existence, like kissing a special someone for the first time, experiencing the welcoming and goodbyes of relatives and friends, cashing your first check, coming home after a long day at work and just that feeling of comfort and peace, also the feeling of not knowing what tomorrow brings is bittersweet, I could die in a car crash on the way to work, I could end up accidentally finding the love of my life, who knows the unknown events of the future is what keeps me goin, making as many beautiful memories as I can is pretty much my goal, Aleister Crowley “do as thou whilst”

It depends exactly how far away. If a star goes supernova within 30 lightyears, you’re toast. If it goes supernova far enough, the beam of gamma rays can become wider over distance and affect the whole planet. Gamma rays could be the reason we don’t see much life outside the earth because they may be wiping out huge chunks of it

I used to take Ativan on occasion - went to a guy’s house for a date once, was nervous so I took an Ativan, and had 2-3 drinks after - he couldn’t wake me up and almost called me an ambulance (he should have) because I was struggling to breathe. My doctor may have said “don’t have a drink on this” but he didn’t make it clear how important this information is or why exactly it’s important (I and most people are always better at following instructions when I know why/what I’m preventing) Please be careful :(

Passionate about traveling and concerts, I constantly seek occasions to visit places yet personally unexplored. I also enjoy spending free time outdoors, trying out different sports—even if I don’t look too graceful at it—or socializing over a cup of coffee.

Happy fun facts- trees make friends with other trees. Humpback whale population has gone from 450 in the 1950s to 25,000 in 2019. Norway knighted a penguin. Octopi make little ocean gardens. The hole in the ozone layer will be fully healed within the next 55 years. Norway donated 1 billion USD to help save the Amazon rainforest. Bees do little dances to tell other bees they found food.

Considering this list of possible catastrophes can't be all inclusive, how has this human race survived this long? How do we manage to drive to point A to point B without being hit by a Mac truck, having a blowout, being hit by a stray bullet or a chunk of metal falling off a truck impaling us... I could go on. You will drive yourself insane if you try to anticipate and worry about every potential outcome. If it happens, it happens and then you deal with it. If you die, you better have made your peace with your Maker cause it will get worse from that point on for eternity.
