Pregnancy runs in my family. Over half of my ancestors had it at some point.

The other big one is death. That runs in the family too. An overwhelming majority of my ancestors experienced death at some point in their lives.

scurvy has got to have one of the biggest disease/treatment coolness gaps of all time. like yeah too much time at sea will afflict you with a curse where your body starts unraveling and old wounds come back to haunt you like vengeful ghosts. unless☝️you eat a lemon

I figured out I had scurvy when my cuts started un-healing and my doctor told me to drink smoothies about it. Fighting latent zombiism with frozen fruit.

[ms-demeanor]

For the record: I have celiac disease, which can cause nutrient malabsorption and other food allergies mean that I have a really really restrictive diet.

Scurvy wasn't the first nutrient deficiency I was treated for (that would be folate) and it won't be the last (currently: vitamin D).

Absolutely none of that came up with my doctor when I was diagnosed with celiac, they just told me I'd get better if I stopped eating gluten. And I *did* get better (anemia went away, migraines significantly reduced, guts are much happier), but I have found myself very disappointed in how celiac patients are educated about the effects of the disorder outside of acute symptoms of consuming gluten. So much of the dietary supplementation we get in the US comes from eating enriched grains - if you're not able to eat enriched grains, you have to do the supplementation yourself.

How the--?

Practice, and millions of dollars of research into how to best do the job quickly without the risk of the tires falling off.

Racing slicks don't need to be balanced after being put on the car, they're more expensive per tire than some consumer cars are in total, and you pay for quality.

They don't check to see whether the tires need replacement, they just have a schedule to do so based on millions of hours of data on tire wear.

The car's body is designed to allow for rapid and stable lifting in a very specific way, and is completely overhauled after every race to guarantee it will keep working this way.

The pit crews train over and over in any conditions where the race isn't automatically cancelled (hot, cold, etc), drilling until they can do their parts with the same coordinated grace as professional dancers, if not more.

And, importantly, once the cars' top speed can no longer go any higher for safety reasons, all the focus goes to maximizing the time spent at that maximum speed. The technology of "go fast" capped out in most racing leagues a while back, more speed becomes too dangerous for human drivers. So all the money that used to go into "go fast" now goes into "don't stop as much."
