I’m all for another crossover, but please no more musical episodes, they’re the worst.

Yes, because referring to a child by the name and pronouns they have requested will irreparably damage them. /s

It has been proven time and again, study after study, that acceptance and support for trans people of all ages improves their quality of life. In this case simply using the requested pronouns and name can have only positive effects on the child’s life. Further gender affirming care has also been proven safe and effective. Hormones are generally not prescribed until after 16, and until then puberty blockers are proven to be both effective and completely reversible and 100% safe. They have been regularly prescribed to cis-children to manage conditions such as precocious puberty for decades. Their application to treat gender dysphoria is no different.

There is no good reason to withhold gender affirming care from a child that is showing signs of dysphoria. Witholding treatment only leads to greater risks of selfharm or suicide.

If you have an Asian grocery nearby, try getting a package of salted duck eggs. They’re boiled and packed in salt at the factory, so that the whole egg absorbs the saltiness trough the shell. They come individually vacuum sealed, so you can just cut it in half with a knife and scoop the egg out of the shell with a spoon, they’re delicious in ramen.

How is is that after all these years, after seeing countless examples of religious lunacy, that I can still be surprised at the petty inanity of the religious. Apparently it’s less a well of stupidity, and more like a never ending guyser of idiocy.

NASAs budget in 2021 was $25b, but their economic output was $71.2b. NASA actually puts more into the economy than it takes to run. Between providing nearly 340,000 jobs and leasing patents on materials and technology developed in house, NASA more than pays their own way. Not to mention all the advancements in material science, medical technology, and engineering that they provide. NASA is well worth the investment we put into it, and IMO deserves much more.

Looks like a spanner nut and the cap appears to be a jam screw to lock it in place.

About time Ford is held accountable for their dogshit engines, although investigations should have started in the early 2000s. The Ford triton v8s of the late 90s and 00s were prone to blowing sparkplugs out of their cylinder heads (taking all the threads with them) so often that parts stores advertised the repair kits prominently. Ford never recalled a single engine for the problem and faced no repercussions.

Why do they need to use fresh water to fill the locks? I get that pumping salt water may come with a bit more maintenance but it just seems like a waste to use all that fresh water.

It would allow engineers to create glass panes for windows that not just darken on demand, but selectively filter certain wave lengths of light. The windows could filter out infrared light while allowing visible light through, which would keep buildings cooler without eliminating natural light. The compound, tungsten oxide hydrate, can can selectively absorb different wave lengths of light depending on the current and amount of lithium ions applied to the material.

Having a fan blow into your face really helps too. I cant play more than 10 or 15 minutes without one, but with I’m fine for hours.

And the distinction between those two is??? A religion is merely a cult that has gathered enough followers to go mainstream.

“I’m not the scuttling horror, I hate that guy. Always with the scuttling.”

Or sink the damn yacht.

The only thing that wants anything to do with Canada Gooses… is Canada Mooses

I’m well aware of how tolerances work, I’ve worked in automotive manufacturing since 2016 and currently run the maintenance department at a tier 2 manufacturing facility.
Injection molding is able to have tolerances in the hundredth of millimeter range true. But metal stamping is not as precise.

Sub 10 micron. Jfc, this idiot doesn’t have a clue about auto manufacturing. Even the most precise parts of auto manufacture don’t require “sub 10 micron” tolerances. Engine bearing journals are about the most crucial fit in a car and they are generally on the order of 50 microns. Electric cars can use even wider margins because they mostly use ball and roller bearings instead of babbit bearings.

But… Since were talking about the body panels on the worlds dumbest truck the point is even more moot. John Delorian was stamping out stainless panels in the 80s on a shoe string budget,
but the worlds richest dipshit wants to make it out to be the automotive equivilant to brain surgery.

I’m honestly surprised that he lasted this long

This is really exciting news, The severe lack of viable transplant organs has been a serious hinderance to the medical profession. If the process can be perfected this has the potential to save millions of lives.

I really enjoy the comics, but I don’t think it translated to show format very well. I watched the first two episodes but it just didn’t make me laugh like the comics do.

Yes nobody showed up to the most attended football match in New Zealand’s history, you fucking idiot.
