After death, human microbes survive in soil and help break down the body. They work with soil microbes to speed up decomposition and recycle nitrogen, which plants need to grow. These microbes can live in the soil for months or years, turning dead bodies into nutrients that support new life. 🌱🦠💀

The human clitoris has about 10,000 to 11,000 nerve fibers, much more than the old estimate of 8,000. This number was based on cow studies, not humans. The clitoris is very small but has many nerves, making it very sensitive. Scientists studied tissue from seven people to find this new number. This helps with surgeries for gender changes and injuries. 🔬✨👙

The Don't Ask, Don't Tell Repeal Act of 2010 ended the U.S. military policy that forced gay, lesbian, and bisexual people to hide their sexual orientation. Passed on 22 December 2010, it allowed them to serve openly. The old policy, started in 1993, only let them serve if they kept their orientation secret and the military didn’t find out. 🇺🇸👩‍❤️‍👩👨‍❤️‍👨👩‍❤️‍👨👨‍❤️‍👨

Heated water has helped people relax and heal for thousands of years. Ancient cultures like Japan and Rome used natural hot springs and made early tubs with hot stones and pipes. The Jacuzzi brothers, Italian inventors in California, created the first submersible pump and later a hydrotherapy pump in 1956 to ease arthritis pain. In 1968, Roy Jacuzzi made the first whirlpool bath with jets, starting modern hot tubs as places for health and social fun.♨️🛁

The Dead Rabbit pregnancy test injected a woman’s urine into a female rabbit. If the rabbit’s ovaries changed, she was pregnant. The rabbit was always killed to check. People wrongly thought the rabbit died only if pregnant, thus creating the euphemism "the rabbit died" to say someone was pregnant.
This outdated but effective test killed many rabbits before kinder tests were made.

On December 23, 1888, Vincent van Gogh cut off part of his left ear after an argument with Paul Gauguin in Arles, France. He wrapped the ear and gave it to a woman at a nearby brothel. Van Gogh was later hospitalized and painted a self-portrait with a bandaged ear.

Vegan diets can help the environment, but large-scale plant farming can hurt soil, wildlife, and cause pollution. Synthetic fertilizers used in farming can damage oceans and soil. Animal farming done the right way helps soil, supports wildlife, and uses natural manure. Eating animal foods gives important nutrients like B12 and iron that plants don’t provide.

An elephant’s trunk 🐘 is an amazing example of evolutionary development 🧬. It is a combined nose and upper lip that lengthened as the elephant’s ancestors became taller and their tusks grew bigger. With its heavy head, it needed an easy way to reach the ground.
