bcovertigo@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Which part of a PB&J is the meat, and which is the condiment?6·10 months ago“Nut meat” is a common phrase so I would guess the peanut product is closest, but please stop this line of thought for your own safety.
bcovertigo@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What was the first effective cure for a disease in history?12·11 months agoConfusingly, there’s actually two similar staves that get mixed up. The helix patterned one with two winged snakes I think you have in mind is called the Caduceus, but the the single wingless version I meant is the staff of Aesculapius (multiple spellings out there).

Googling puts that theory with the Ebers papyrus from 1500 BC if it’s true!
Between the demand to install an app we are prohibited from even "decipher"ing and the theft of content, I don’t think this service is anything I want to be a part of. I thought they were trying to be something better.
