Actually I think I've read that certain brain cells aren't replaced but I'm not sure and I don't know which ones.

Sure, okay.

Seems more like you were salty about being clowned on TBH.

But I still am super salty about the two most vigilante commulists not being able to give any useful or coherent information to help educate me on it so I had to put in tons of work to sift through all of the uneducated bull**** to actually learn anything. These two fools let me believe socialism is when the state controls the means of production and commulism is when the people control the means of production. Like, I asked and they let me believe that was basically true.

I thought it was mainly the brain cells in the hippocampus that get replaced. Others might have some level of regeneration, but not full replacement. I believe antidepressants mimic the process of replacing cells in the hippocampus to give those with depression some kind of mitigation with their negative feelings.

But anyways, I'm almost positive that not everything in the brain is replaced. We come equipped with 100 billion brain cells at birth and I'd be willing to bet that not every one of them is replaced.

Don't all of our cells get replaced?

I don't think so.

I think a large majority of our cells die and new ones take their place but for certain parts of our body, that is not the case. Besides the direct replacement of cells, I believe our stem cells have the ability to create copies via mitosis.

Just doing a quick google search now that I'm interested, I found the following from LiveScience (not the best source, but I doubt its really off the mark):

And lsd helps grow brain cells. Or mushrooms. IDK. One of them does.

Honestly that was some stone cold drunk trolling logic. I knew I didn't want to start a long conversation but Marie mentioned free will and in my haze I pounced on the opportunity to reignite the ****posting.

But dude you were clearly salty.

I'd like to read more about theory but reading sucks and you don't need theory to know that capitalism is inhuman predatory garbage that allows the rich to govern your life and extract wealth from you and enlists your fellow losers to be middle management enforcers and informers on you. Theory sounds good as an idea for what to do after you kick capitalism in the balls but only bourgeouis college kids need it as an impetus to wave the black flag.

And mainly cause they're insecure about their parents rolling their eyes at them.

Secondly, I don't think anyone here is stupid. A little demented maybe, but not stupid.

But was shocked to see OH is missing. I went back and discovered he hasn't posted since February. I can't believe he would have left over a time out. I mean, it's not like he's never been timed out before. I'm assuming no one here is able to contact him.

Anyway, dropping in. Nice to see you guys.

Hey man! Good to see you after all this time. How goes it?

yeah you must be right. MS is a degenerative disease that attacks the brain cells. I often have to repeat things to Karen many times, over several days, as her short-term memory is ****ed with that disease. One of her doctors once put it very clearly if simplisticly: your brain is shrinking and there are holes developing in it. Nice.

Bourgeois college kids are the worst. Dip****s that think it's cute to use Stalin as their profile pic do more harm than good to the movement.
