There has been some speculation about the connection between silphium and the traditional heart shape (β₯).[23] Silver coins from Cyrene of the 6thβ5th centuries BCE bear a similar design, sometimes accompanied by a silphium plant, and is understood to represent its seed or fruit.[24] Some plants in the family Apiaceae, such as Heracleum sphondylium, have heart-shaped indehiscent mericarps (a type of fruit).
Contemporary writings help tie silphium to sexuality and love. Silphium appears in Pausanias' Description of Greece in a story of the Dioscuri staying at a house belonging to Phormion, a Spartan, "For it so happened that his maiden daughter was living in it. By the next day this maiden and all her girlish apparel had disappeared, and in the room were found images of the Dioscuri, a table, and silphium upon it."[25] Silphium as laserpicium makes an appearance in a poem (Catullus 7) of Catullus to his lover Lesbia (though others have suggested that the reference here is instead to silphium's use as a treatment for mental illness, tying it to the "madness" of love

Testosterone correlates heavily with political alignment. Higher T levels = less tolerance to liberal values, higher correlation with 'conservative' nature.

Fun fact- after looking at the 2 billion number, I was skeptical on if it was actually up to 2024. If you convert from seconds to years you get around 68 years.
However, this is irrelevant to the point because this isnβt the second count. This adds up the total number of seconds, minutes, hours, and days, meaning that there is overlap- explaining why the number is so high.
