Would it be possible to give a human artificial gills?
The theoretical answer is yes, but such an apparatus would be enormous, heavy, and use a huge amount of power.

Many many years ago I interviewed for a job in a non profit in Washington, D.C. My prospective boss asked me to go out to lunch and my choices were the expensive restaurant next door or a cafeteria at NEA. I chose the former.

Many many years ago I interviewed for a job in a non profit in Washington, D.C. My prospective boss asked me to go out to lunch and my choices were the expensive restaurant next door or a cafeteria at NEA. I chose the former.
Yes I got the job, but I later found out I almost didn’t because I had stupidly forgotten this was a NONPROFIT with a limited budget and I should have been more sensitive to this.
Why did I get the job? I was red haired, boss’s daughters had red hair, and this was a mitigating factor. When I walked into the office on the first day of work, his secretary AND administrative assistant were red haired.
Moral to story: Order somewhere in the middle. Avoid all traps.

More argument for Livermush, a delectable variant of scrapple. Come to one of the Livermush festivals to sample it. BUT oh dear a very nice company in the adjoining state Elvis called home makes it too.
That leaves our one clear claim to fame, an addictive red beverage called Cheerwine. Not wine, just a plain cherry soda.

You probably can. Check with the individual college. Each college or college system can usually set their own rules as far as whether or not they have a minimum age. Ironically my son, who took his first college course after high school freshman year, took a regular course at a college that didn’t have a minimum age limit BECAUSE he was rejected at a college program for high school students that wouldn’t admit students who hadn’t completed grade 11.
Also check or have your parents check the policies in your school district. Many are required to pay for your college course if you’re qualified to take it and the school doesn’t offer it.
Also note that many big name universities offer online classes, including the Ivy League universities, and completing a course at a better college will be more meaningful than a course taken at a community college with respect to college admissions.

I would first recommend that you look up the phrase “bad picker.” The way I\'ve heard it explained by a therapist is that all people have different “attachment styles.” That would also be a good term to look up.

I would first recommend that you look up the phrase “bad picker.” The way I\’ve heard it explained by a therapist is that all people have different “attachment styles.” That would also be a good term to look up. It all seems to boil down to emotional and social dysfunctions that we develop during childhood. This is hard to undo for two main reasons:
Sometimes, when someone is finally a miserable, broken mess, and have nowhere to turn, they\’ll get therapy, start to uncover their issues, and develop better emotional intelligence so that they are drawn to better romantic partners and stop sabotaging healthy relationships.

No single food or single food group gives the human body all the nutrients it requires to function well and be optimally healthy.
Fruit is pretty much just sugar: fructose, or fruit sugar, the simplest form of carbohydrate.
The human body needs carbs but it ALSO needs protein and fat. Fruits do not supply the protein or the fat we need to be healthy.
If you ONLY eat fruit (and even if you drink a sufficient amount of water as well) you will die of malnutrition.
That’s why.
