Don't be terrified. It paralyses you. Instead take your fear to a protest and see all the other afraid people. Then do something so you don't have to be afraid anymore.

It's difficult to describe since for me it just happens but here's my best shot. I think I experience it by imitatiting someones facial expression and other body language. Not completely but just a bit. And then I somehow feel a mix of emotions that I assume is similar to the other persons emotional state. Sometimes people don't show their real emotions though. Another way I experience it is when I know a bit of the persons background I think back to times when I was in a position that was similar. Not exactly the same scenario but more like when I also had a lot of stressors or when I was sourounded by friends or felt bored. Both 'techniques' I do unconsciously though. It lets me better understand others on a non rational level. it can be stressful though. Especially if the other person Isn't being genuine with their emotions. My mother e.g. is constantly puttung on false emotions like an actor. It feels manipulative and gave me trust issues. I still feel a bond to her and care about her though.

 

I'm german and have been listening to it to get the american perspective on world events. They seem to be rather neutral and don't make a spectacle of things like CNN or abc does which helps me with focusing on the facts. They currently are my favourite american news source. Yet I rarely see them referenced. What do you guys think about them? What's their vibe in your opinion?

It's a newly proposed fusion reactor prototype. It's a stellerator type reactor. Together with the Tokamak type reactor these two are the currently most promising types to achieve fusion and generate more energy than they take to operate. While the tokamakak type looks more symmetrical to the human eye the stellerator types have adopted very weird looking shapes where the symmetries are more hidden. The pictures are from this paper by mostly people from the institute who created the to date biggest stellerator type fusion generator Wendelstein 7-x. Their proposed prototype 'Stelaris' is a lot bigger than the 7-x.

Bonus (with little context):

And heres a shematic view oft how it would look like from outside. Just like a donut.

Are there any manga that used to be extremely popular but then something bad happened (either in the manga or in it's surroundings) so that after it was made public it was kinda collectivly decided to never talk about the manga ever again?
