What is the highlight of human civilization according to Scott?
I'll get my comments working here. There we go. Do-do-do-do-do-do. Do-do-do-do-do-do. Ra-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba. Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba. Da-da-da-da-da-da. Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams. And if you'd like to take this experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need is a cup or mug or a glass of tanker shells beside a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. Join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better today with a little oxytocin to go. Now, if that didn't make your loneliness go away, I don't know why well, because we're all here together today. We're live. We're figuring it out. We're making the world a better place. It's all good. Well, here's some news about science.
Turns out that eggs, according to a new study, they might protect your brain health. So if you eat eggs, you're less likely to have cognitive dysfunction in your middle age and longer. Now, I was quite interested in this study, and I was thinking about taking on a loan from to get myself one of these eggs. Have any of you been lucky enough to be able to afford an egg? I hear they're good. They're good for your brain. If you can afford one, go get one. Meanwhile, in the biggest surprise in all of science, there's a study that says that alcohol might be bad for your brain. It's linked to Alzheimer's risk. Huh, a gigantic surprise. Alcohol's not good for you. Here's another, here's a fun one. SciTech Daily says there's a breakthrough in regeneration.
Let's see, they're adding the synthetic peptides to your own blood and it can mimic your own regenerative hematoma. So somehow they take your own blood and they give it a little boost with some peptides. And the next thing you know, you've got super blood. You will be enrolling in the X-Men School of Excellence with your super blood, or possibly they'll just make you healthier. There's a study at SciPost that's talking about a study that shows that politics can trump truth. And it's funny they use the word trump there. So here's what they did. They gave people various facts about some true, some fake about politics. And they noticed that people were more likely to believe things that agreed with them politically. Huh. I wonder how they could have saved some money.
Well, you could have just asked me. Yes, people do tend to agree with the people on their side and think that that's totally right and everybody else is totally wrong. It's true. It's true. I know it's a shocker. Shocker. But they found that Trump, they say that people who favor Trump were more likely, more likely to believe fake news if it agreed with their team. Huh. Raises an interesting question, doesn't it? Apparently, there is a group of scientists who know what news is real. Now, wouldn't it be helpful, instead of wasting their time on this study, if they had simply said, hey, we're scientists and we know which news is real. Not only do we know which news is real, but we know it so certainly that we can have a test in which we put the news we know is real versus the news we know isn't real. So thank goodness there's some people who know which news is real. Okay. Now, I think they probably didn't use real news. They probably just made up some stuff, and I think almost anybody could tell made-up stuff.
So I don't think there's any scientific validity to this whatsoever, but I still believe the conclusion. And you didn't really need to do a test to find out that people like to agree with their side. Oh, surprising. I'm trying to figure out if the stories about Infowars are true. Did I hear that Alex Jones debunked the report that the owner of The Onion bought Infowars assets? So do we even know what happened there? I'm getting all kinds of weird, conflicting stories. So the only thing I know is somebody in the comments felt it was necessary to remind me that I'm not a scientist. Should it also be necessary to mention that French press is a good way to make coffee? Swimming is the best form of exercise. And that food, that universal food, it might be soil and cream.
