That's disgusting... and so wrong!
I've written before about the psycho-immune function of disgust and the generalization of disgust reactions to the moral realm. The immunological function of disgust certainly makes intuitive sense when you consider some commonplace objects of disgust, for example, bodily fluids and excretions, rotting and decaying things, certain stinky things, glistening, leaky, blobulous innards or perhaps clams before the first time you tried them. We are turned off by things that appear to have a higher probability of spreading dangerous contagions.... (Source: Dr. X's Free Associations)

The ICOPS Tagger
I've noticed the handiwork, but didn't know it was a thing. Most recently I saw it painted on the window of an L car. I don't know why the police are assuming that this no-talent knucklehead is a minor. (Source: Dr. X's Free Associations)

Over 300 Arrested worldwide for child pornography
Euronews: It follows a three-year investigation into Toronto-based company Azovfilms.com that distributed child porn. Of the 348 arrested, 108 were in Canada, 76 in the United States and 164 in other countries from Spain to Australia. They included 40 school teachers, nine doctors and nurses, 32 people who volunteered with children, six police officers, nine priests, and three foster parents, according to the head of Toronto’s Sex Crimes Unit. Some occupations are overrepresented, to say the least. I wonder if... (Source: Dr. X's Free Associations)

I didn't notice the guy reflected in the window when I shot this. In fact, I don't remember seeing him at all. Maybe he's an apparition... the Red Line Ghoul. (Source: Dr. X's Free Associations)

Soda Consumption Linked To Poor Attention And Bad Behavior
Jeremy Dean: The US researchers found that children who drank more soda were more likely to be aggressive, to have attention problems, to get into fights and to destroy other people’s belongings (Suglia et al., 2013). This backs up findings in adolescents that have linked drinking more soda to self-harm, aggression, depression and even suicidal thoughts (Lien et al., 2006; Solnick & Hemenway, 2013). As Jeremy explains, the study only finds an association rather than a causal relationship between soda... (Source: Dr. X's Free Associations)

Worst Headline Of The Day: "Indian official: 'If you can't prevent rape, you enjoy it'"
That was the dishonest headline for a Tribune story about demands for India's top cop step down. Here's what the CBI leader actually said during a discussion of legalized sports betting. "Do we have the enforcement?" Sinha said at a CBI conference in New Delhi on Tuesday about whether sports betting should be legalized. "It is very easy to say that if you can't enforce it, it's like saying if you can't prevent rape, you enjoy it." The statement has... (Source: Dr. X's Free Associations)
