What was your paper on?

I can’t thank you enough for sharing this.

You can’t leave us hanging. What’s the best answer you got?

Typically those are mammals with larger litters and shorter gestational periods. Human offspring are too resource intensive to be widely used as decoys.

This is a weird conversation.

Which indigenous groups don’t wear shoes? Genuinely curious. In North America, moccasins are pretty well-known. I understand that part of the need stems from climate though. I’m more curious about what terrain an indigenous group might live in that can be safe to live barefoot.

I’m giggling at the idea of ancient people’s wearing socks with Crocs, but I can’t help but feel that clogs specifically might leave a different footprint.

Contract yes, as it pertains to laws, but I would argue construct no- since protecting one’s offspring is a natural/biological impulse. It’s non negotiable from a survival viewpoint, and some people have better survival instincts than others.

Meow cat, please meow back.

Why would it make sense to manufacture different types of caps when the largest market is now the attached ones?

I’m pretty sure he turned it down?

I learned the hard way that “Delay Send” only sends when you launch the desktop client after the chosen time, instead of just sending at the chosen time like you’d expect.

Speak for yourself

What are you feeling that you don’t want to struggle with anymore? Is it guilt? Is it feeling in the way? Is it an unnamable negative? If it’s the last one then you can probably do some work surrounding labelling your emotions, so that you can then apply logic to them- do they fit the current situation? Or no?

Finding a good therapist is like dating. You might not jive with everyone, and that’s ok! It sounds like you would do well with one who either a) is cool with you coming to the session with a goal or who b) helps you set a goal for each session at the beginning. It sounds like your previous therapists weren’t meeting your goals, but it doesn’t mean it isn’t worthwhile.

I’m sorry that you feel like you’re getting in trouble often. I hope this feeling passes soon.

What a sweetheart! She looks like such a snuggly sausage, especially the bottom right. What was your favourite habit of hers?

If their venom glands are removed. Note: this is super cruel and has a high risk of failure

I like “I’m traffic.” Succinct, to the point.

I asked my google home the same question and it told me that I told it that my dog is a good girl 3 times. I know it’s not great for privacy, but it made me chuckle.

Have you read Herbert West: Reanimator? I think that one in particular had an especially problematic description of a black man. I had to put down the anthology for a bit when I got there.

I wasn’t trying to conflate the two things. I was providing a source on where the “farms” came from, and clarified that they were meant to help “drug addicts” (not minimizing your experience- just reinforcing that the wording is already not great from a lens of treating maladaptive substance use, in addition to being completely inappropriate for people who take prescribed medications.)

I neither agreed not disagreed, though I do find it problematic to be enrolling people who are neurodivergent into any kind of list for any reason without their expressed consent and ability to withdraw that consent at any times. If the reason is purely investigation/research as you say, then I believe that it should be under the same rigor and ethics considerations as any other research.
