Michelle York+FollowClimate Myths You’ve Probably Heard (Debunked!)Ever heard someone say CO2 isn’t driving climate change, or that the sun or volcanoes are to blame? Turns out, science has officially shut down these classic climate myths. New research shows CO2 is the main culprit (and we’re the ones lighting the fire), solar activity has actually dropped while temps keep rising, and volcanoes cool the planet, not heat it. Even the idea that cities or medieval times explain today’s warming? Totally busted. Which myth surprised you most? #ClimateFacts #MythBusted #ScienceMatters #Science32Share
James Smith+FollowTape Hack to Open Car Windows? Not So FastEver seen those viral vids where people open a locked car window with just some tape? Looks wild, right? Turns out, it’s mostly smoke and mirrors. Some clips are totally staged (hello, sneaky hand on the window switch!), and even if it works, it’s usually only on old-school manual windows. Experts say you could end up wrecking your car’s window mechanism—way pricier than calling a locksmith. Save your tape for packing boxes, not breaking into your ride! #CarHacks #ViralTrends #MythBusted #Cars00Share
suarezpatricia+FollowStop Tossing Your Laundry Cap In!Turns out that viral laundry hack—throwing your detergent cap in the wash—is a big nope, even if the label says it’s fine. Experts say modern washers don’t use enough water to rinse the cap clean, so it can get stuck, crack, or leave plastic bits in your clothes. Instead, just rinse the cap in the sink. It’s a tiny extra step, but your washer (and your wardrobe) will thank you! #LaundryHacks #CleaningTips #HomeCare #MythBusted #Health1529Share
susanfoster+FollowSamurai’s ‘Dragon’ Was Actually a Weasel?!Turns out that legendary 1,000-year-old ‘mummified dragon’ found by a samurai wasn’t a mythical beast after all—it was a Japanese marten! Scientists finally cracked the case using X-rays and carbon dating, revealing the ‘rainbow dragon’ was just a weasel-like mammal. For centuries, people believed it brought rain whenever its treasure house was opened (and weirdly, it still seems to!). Even cooler: other ‘dragons’ in the collection? Just a mole, a crow, and a pigeon. Myth busted! #HistoryMystery #Samurai #WeirdScience #MythBusted #JapanHistory #Science10Share
jay42+FollowNuts & Seeds Are Back On The Menu!Turns out, you don’t have to ditch nuts, seeds, or even popcorn if you’ve got diverticulitis! A huge new study just busted the old myth that these snacks make things worse. The real game-changer? Following one of four healthy diets (think DASH or Mediterranean) can actually lower your risk. Basically, it’s all about overall diet quality, not avoiding your favorite crunchy snacks. Who else is celebrating with a handful of almonds? #HealthNews #GutHealth #Diverticulitis #MythBusted #HealthyEating #Health00Share
Joe Gallagher+FollowUS Isn’t ‘Too Big’ for High-Speed Rail?!Turns out, the whole idea that America’s just too massive for high-speed trains is totally bogus. A TikTok creator broke it down: no one’s trying to build a train from NYC to LA overnight. The real plans are for routes like NYC to DC or SF to LA—distances that work just fine for bullet trains in Europe and Asia. So, if Spain and Japan can do it, why can’t we? The real hurdles are politics and old infrastructure, not geography! #HighSpeedRail #TransitTruth #SustainableTravel #MythBusted #Transportation10Share
