🌊 **Did you know a single tuna once sold for Tk. 21.6 MILLION in Japan?** 🐟


 

Here’s why this deep-sea marvel is *so much more* than just a fish—it’s a cultural icon, a culinary treasure, and a health powerhouse.  


✨ **The “Sea Chicken” of Japan**  

Tuna isn’t just loved in Japan—it’s *revered*. Nicknamed “sea chicken” for its versatility, it’s the star of sushi and sashimi. Imagine: buttery-smooth texture, melt-in-your-mouth richness, and a flavor so pure, it’s often enjoyed raw. But even cooked, it’s a delicacy.  


🔍 **Why So Expensive?**  

Size *matters*. The heavier and larger the tuna, the higher its price. These swift swimmers (they can hit 43 mph!) thrive in deep waters, making them a challenge to catch. Rare + delicious = luxury on a plate.  


🌍 **A Global Obsession**  

Beyond Japan, Korea and Europe can’t get enough. From gourmet kitchens to street food stalls, tuna’s demand is sky-high. And for good reason…  


💪 **Health Meets Flavor**  

Packed with high-quality protein and omega-3s, tuna boosts heart health, builds muscle, and fuels strength. Delicious *and* nutritious? Win-win.  


**🍣 Fun Fact:** The same tuna prized in Tokyo’s markets might end up in your favorite sushi roll halfway across the world!

The Man Who Invented The "Psychopath"?

The Man Who Invented the “Psychopath”? Hervey Cleckley, an influential psychiatrist, is often credited with shaping modern understandings of psychopathy, even though his original intent was to help rather than stigmatize those affected. His 1941 work, The Mask of Sanity, was pivotal, as it introduced the concept of the psychopath as a specific personality type with 16 distinct traits. Cleckley described individuals who seemed outwardly rational but exhibited shallow emotions, lacked empathy, and engaged in destructive behaviors, though often without malice. Cleckley’s perspective was initially sympathetic; he saw these individuals as “forgotten” by psychiatry—people who needed understanding and treatment. However, as psychopathy entered the public lexicon, the term was quickly associated with malice, violence, and even inhumanity. Cleckley’s nuanced portrait of the psychopath was adapted by later researchers like Robert Hare, who created the widely used Psychopathy Checklist, a t...
