Why continual headaches might reveal you have Coeliac Disease
The chances are that right up to the 2000’s you will not have heard of Coeliac Disease. While more and more people are now diagnosed with the condition its not a new illness, its always been here but relatively recent scientific revelations mean that a Coeliac diagnosis can mean the difference between life and death.
Spencer HawkenPublished 3 years ago in HumansPebbles and Stardust
They'd call me the Pebbles crazy fool. But there ain't no madness about me. I just spend time collecting rocks. Not regular ones. Only special ones. Smaller stones, medium-sized ones, or big heavy rocks, as long as they look special or different to me. I've been doing it for years now and spent maybe a little too much time around it to look like the normal guy.
Jacinthe LafrancePublished 3 years ago in HumansA notebook at the end of the universe
There is a notebook at the end of the universe. Its pages are pristine, its cover the deepest black, leather never cracked or faded. It sits in perfect orbit around a nearby black hole, and watches the event horizon the way a rabbit watches a nearby fox - wary, scared, and resigned to the fact that it could never move fast enough to escape.

I am far from a scientist. I am a school bus driver who writes on the side. I do ponder the universe. I stand outside my Grandfather's house and stare into the great unknown.
Jasper WolfPublished 3 years ago in HumansPromise
The gentleman gave off an unnatural feeling. He stood a little too close, his clothes were slightly too big for his frame and his glasses were strange in their proportions. The lenses only just bigger than the eyes, the wiring rigid and straight, bent in the centre to help perch on his small ratty nose.
Harry SmithPublished 3 years ago in HumansLike Wildfire
If it burns like wildfire within, you’re probably a Sagittarius. Envision a stage, lit, and the roar of a Woodstock crowd as the Emcee announces, “Fire and Mutability are in the house, so let’s give them a big round of applause.”
Geraldine MacDonaldPublished 3 years ago in HumansLast Call
Harry pushed through the heavy wooden door and shuffled into Hair of the Dog, his favorite dive. Dragging his feet across the chipped linoleum floor, he collapsed into one of the worn fake leather stools at the end of the bar. Harry took a deep breath. The faint smell of cigarettes and stale beer clung to the air, and the din of country music and pool balls cracking filled his ears, but they were a welcome distraction from his thoughts.
Nicole WernerPublished 3 years ago in HumansAh, That's Some Robust Theory You've got there!
Science communication is broken. And I don't just mean when scientists are communicating to the average person. Scientific papers are riddled with poor terminology that illustrate a severe lack of understanding of the mechanisms that underlie scientific inquiry.
Daniel GoldmanPublished 3 years ago in HumansMy Mutated Eye
You have a half hazel and half blue eye? What could that mean? Gasp! It's heterochromia! When I was younger, about 8 or so, I went to a music concert my sister was performing at with my parents. As we were standing out in the lobby, the dazzling (yet oh so bright) chandeliers made it very easy for my parents to notice and point out my multi-colored left eye. This was something I shrugged off because at that age, I really didn't care about much besides cartoons and pizza. That is, until the color change became more drastic. At first it had started out as a tiny sliver of brown, and then over the next couple years it gradually changed to where exactly one half was hazel, the other half remaining blue.

I’m standing in the dark corridor, hesitating, swaying slightly on the spot as I think. There’s a soft, muffled bleep repeating in the distance and the hum of a floor sweeper outside. It’s 2am. The light rain tapping against the window at the end of the corridor blurs the cityscape into refracted fragments of orange, yellow, green, and red. A burst of blue signals the arrival of yet another ambulance in the docking bay below.

Musonius LatoyahPublished 3 years ago in HumansWHY I DECIDED TO GET THE COVID-19 VACCINATION
When I first learned that a vaccine for COVID-19 had been developed I had mixed emotions about it like many people. In the past year my family and I have been fortunate enough to have escaped the virus but I know many close friends and family that have not been so fortunate and after seeing and hearing their stories I sure didn’t want to play Russian roulette with this virus or vaccine any longer than I had to. The decision to receive the vaccine or not weighed heavily on my mind still so I sat down and made a list of what I felt were important factors to help me make an informed decision one way or another.
