The Power of Habit

A pint of butterfat and sugar with a Ben and Jerry's label,
a spurt of oxytocin when you see that @jayrosen_nyu or @ebertchicago has retweeted you, that tingling in your legs after a strenuous workout, the numbing rush of a fix, the first puffs of an American Spirit .... it's all the same to the basal ganglia, four lumps of gray matter in the forebrain that encode highly rewarding behavior for easy repetition. -- Breaking the Habits that Enslave Us: Q&A with Charles Duhigg

Your Say

The article goes into gay marriage and how anyone who is against it is equivalent to a racist. I get one-sided bigotry from the MSM and am disappointed to see you linking it to it here. Of course they stoop to the same behavior they deplore (they are religious bigots) and are blind to see anyone opposing their views.
