honestly i know its cool to stay up late, but sleep is so incredibly important to learning and understanding concepts. when we are awake, our brain creates toxins which make it harder to think throughout the day. when we sleep, the brain can rest and remove these toxins, literately making us smarter.  get some sleep guys.

english essays would be way cooler if they’d teach us to be just, super critical of classic literature 

imagine if the standard teaching approach to essays was more along the lines of “here’s an outdated written work by a member of the ruling class of a society that was conspicuously more prejudiced than ours. use textual examples to demonstrate why it would be hella inappropriate and probably quite shitty to publish-glorify today.

Where Voice Recognition Occurs in the Brain

We regularly find ourselves in situations in which we talk to others. We talk to friends in a different way than we do to strangers. One important skill for this is not just understanding what the other person is saying but also recognising who is talking. Therefore, the voice of our conversation partner helps us. Until now, scientists could not agree on exactly which regions in the brain allow us to recognise voices.

Full open access research for “Obligatory and facultative brain regions for voice-identity recognition” by Claudia Roswandowitz, Claudia Kappes, Hellmuth Obrig, and Katharina von Kriegstein in Brain. Published online December 8 2017 doi:10.1093/brain/awx313

Especially persons with lesions in certain areas of the right posterior temporal lobe experienced difficulties recognizing voices. The MPI scientists assume that the posterior superior temporal gyrus, the STG, is crucial for voice recognition. NeuroscienceNews.com image is credited to MPI CBS.
