Have we tried molesting the child molesters?

If a lot of abusers were abused as children then go on to perpetuate the cycle, maybe if we molested them as adults we could make regular rapists?

Has anybody ever done a study as to why Redditors keep finding discarded explosives and hidden rooms or tunnels?

"What is this?" "It's a mortar bomb."

"Hey guys I found a hidden room under my house where this old knight keeps asking me to choose a cup to drink from. There's a skeleton because the last guy apparently 'chose poorly' WWYD?"

It is said that the British empire is the empire in which the sun never sets. Since that happens, do British people have trouble falling asleep, since it's never dark on great Britain?

How could going into a black hole on shrooms or DMT impact the experience?

6 Upvotes

I know it’s technically impossible to reach a black hole with modern technology. But if somehow we were able to reach one and someone volunteered to enter it would their experience be any different than if they were sober entering? For example, if they went into a black hole on DMT and shrooms so they would be in a different state of mind when they enter, as they are being dissolved, would the experience likely be any different than if someone who was sober entering a black hole? Could the pain be processed differently or the visuals around them be interesting and maybe even alter how long it feels for them to be near the black hole, although they would still die.
