  • I mean, yes, fine, agreed. I'd love it if 'god' decided to pull a repeat but did it in a state that actually has healthcare. Hello, abortion-jesus!

  • I hate that I'd even have to entertain that as a reason, or spew it at those who just won't care about any other argument.

  • If she was able to have the labor portion, I'd assume everything else went according to normal pregnancy standards. So, yes, I guess 14-year old Mary was lactating?

  • Also probiotic in itself is not a real thing

    Oh please do go and fuck off. I've had to spend a ridiculous portion of my life reading the research on probiotics, and how they work is not entirely understood, but it's a far better established idea than "[introducing] more fuckboy dudes" into the targeted ecosystem.

  • I'm still holding hope that someday someone taller than me will be amenable to a date. I'm just tired of always being the spinner instead of the spinnee in the dance of life.

  • Am I just crazy, or is the mary illustrated here kind of a bitch? The baby isn't going to care if you get it a fucking onesie or a lasagna, because it definitely won't understand anything going on for another year, minimum. If I bring a gift 'for the baby' that the parents will use, isn't that just as good? Maybe gold, incense, and myrrh aren't the best things to put in the crib, but I'm pretty sure it was some 14-year old hands that opened the gift wrap, and those 14 year old hands can sell the expensive gifts if they want to.

    Luigi Mangione Judge Married to Former Healthcare Executive
  • The defense can try to reject any juror that shows significant malice. Oftentimes both sides only have so many that they can strike from the potential juror pool unless the judge agrees there is enough bias to sway someone.

    ...and since this entire thread started because the judge is married to a previous executive of a healthcare* company, well, good luck Luigi defense.

  • Yep, this is a junk drawer at its nascent stage.

    My mother got into the pampered chef selling bulldonkey when I was young, and despite the dozens of items we got from them, only four really stood out, and she still has three of them. The ice cream scoop (how hard is it to make a shaped chunk of metal, after all), the kitchen shears (which were actually good quality), the slap-chop before there was a slap-chop brand (the one that is now missing/broken), and the kitchen organizer thing for the countertop: pic related. It was great for the longer shaped things, like some of what you have in the drawer. If the drawer bothers you that much, consider something that goes on the countertop or on the wall (or even a hanging pot organizer, which I love above a kitchen island.

    "Hot spot" map of prevalence of autism spectrum disorder by county
  • The 'not significant' part could be due to low numbers in general, so they can't get the variances small enough to get low p numbers. It's a quote that I can't quite remember perfectly that is well known in sociology/psychology: "The only reason our findings aren't significant is because we're too damn lazy to drag enough people in for the study."

    Milk rule
  • That would be the most understandable portion of the whole shindig. Fungi are a major idea (and everywhere in science fiction) for how to deal with interstellar travel because of their unique niche in the various cycles of life. I would bet an alien species that can travel through the vast reaches of space would also be familiar with using biotechnology.

  • I mean, I bet trump is pretty lubed on a consistent basis, with his uncontrollable, oh so very wet sounds he makes. I'll put money on him being the bottom.

    Random Thought
  • I mean, I'm not the absolute expert here, but we would likely identify it as something other than chyme. Diarrhoea (I like the british spelling because, as someone else put it, it looks like you've lost control of your vowels) isn't chyme, nor really feces. There's sort of a hierarchy of naming things, right, so what they are most is what we call them, so it would just be called diarrhoea.

    Random Thought
  • Fecal matter is usually large intestine. It's chyme in the small intestine. Some of the defining characteristics of fecal matter are things like the large amount of bacteria (up to 1/3 of its weight at exit), the color (yay bilirubin conversion), and the compaction (and simultaneously occurring dehydration). When we're missing those things, we usually identify it as something other than feces. That means, nominally, that you don't really have much poop until you're well into the large intestine. Color is the weakest of those, but it is such a good indication of something going wrong if changed that I would say it is a part of anything that could be considered 'true poop.'
