Insanity Is Hereditary. You Get It From Your Kids

I reminded my daughter again this evening (Father’s Day celebration) that I didn’t have grey hair 32 years ago.

She reminded me that I’m old now. πŸ‘΄πŸ»

(There’s also the presumption in this article that brain size matters to brain function. I’m taken back to Stephen Jay Gould’s work on the pseudoscience of brain size and race (and intelligence, which is what covered the racism; or tried to). I’m sure brain size varies over time for any person. I’m not sure that correlates to brain function, except under specific circumstances (i.e., depending on what area of the brain is affected). So I’m not sure this report is what the NYT thinks it is.)
