It's one of the biggest experiments in fighting global poverty. Now the results are in
  • Perhaps it could be an option to choose a lump payment at any time with the caveat that you don't receive the monthly amount until you've caught back up. Like you can do monthly payments as default, but if you have enough savings and want to make a larger purchase/investment you can take a lump payment of 3, 6, or 12 months and then go back to monthly after that time has passed. Some people may prefer to take a lump sum every 12 months too, everyone handles finances differently.

  • People Who Don't Wear Deodorant or Seemingly Bathe Regularly, Why?
  • Apparently it could also have to do with the microbiome on the skin too, there are a couple companies developing probiotic deodorant based on the flora of people who naturally don't smell very bad. It's a balance of good bacteria versus stinky bacteria and I can see how things like antibiotic use and diet can have an impact on that balance just like it does in the gut, but a decent portion of it does seem to be genetic.

  • I realized why I like friendships with lesbians
  • The reverse has been true and openly discussed for ages, there's a reason the "sassy gay best friend" is such a trope in shows and movies made for female viewers. A decent percentage of our conversations with friends has to do with our attraction to or problems with our desired gender, so being able to commiserate with someone that has the same preferences also encourages these friendships. There's just an extra layer of relatability that hetero mixed gender friendships don't. It would be odd to point at a stranger while out with a heterosexual female friend and say "look at that chick, isn't she hot?" Your friend could potentially think you're trying to say that if she were more like that chick then maybe you'd want to date her. Even saying something like "women are crazy" has a very different tone when said by a man to a straight woman.
