roguetrick,

Specific gravity is just the density of the sample divided by the density of water. The dissolved salt and urea make it more dense so the closer the specific gravity is to 1, the closer it is to being water.

roguetrick,

I figured since you named yourself after bodily fluids it was important to you.

He had to jump in front of those dangerous hamberders to save Jesus.

roguetrick,

The royals have actual huge tracts of tax free land though. That’s why capitalists want their own fiefs.

roguetrick,

When pregnant that’s a pretty good explanation of what it does though. Uterus just tells everybody up to the diaphragm to get outta the fucking way.

roguetrick,

Inherently, even if they proved themselves to be bad actors in the worst way, the US would be unable to prosecute them. I don’t know that it justifies an embargo, but, as el reg notes, it’s not like this move hasn’t been telegraphed for over 5 years now.

How’d they fortify it? I thought they didn’t do distillation until at least the 10th century and it was too warm to do fractional freezing.

You’ve never seen post trans-urethral prostate resection continuous bladder irrigation before.

roguetrick,

Oh I had downvoted myself. I do that that for fun sometimes. It often results in a lot more downvotes and is funny.

roguetrick,

And then you’ve got salon trying to shovel Variety’s bait for clicks. Parasites from top to bottom.

roguetrick,

The fillibuster has nearly no relation to what the house does. I don’t know why you’re hung up on it. I mean read your own damn quote. Do you think anyone cares if a party leader decides to speak for 8 hours in the house before a vote? For a day? They don’t need a supermajority to stop them, they just let them run out of steam. The Senate it matters, but it’s just theater in the house .

roguetrick,

Because the reason many leftists are dissatisfied with Dems is that they’re largely performative, and you’re arguing for more performative nonsense that achieves nothing.

Would you like to sign my petition?

I’m sorry

Sign my petition damnit.

No way you freaking pinko

Are you gonna sign this or will it be your surviving family members?

Ahhhhh!

Party of fiscal responsibility just showing who’s pocket they actually care about.

Edit: also

The legislature has so far rejected that proposal, and it is now on break for the rest of 2024.

I understand farmers like having part time legislature so they can both participate in government and run harvest season, but Jesus Christ Wisconsin is supposedly a full time legislature.

Colorado Republican Brutally Grilled By Local News Anchor: ‘Why Is Abortion Good For Your Girlfriend? Bad For Other Women?’ (www.mediaite.com)

Colorado congressional candidate and sitting State Rep. Richard Holtorf ® received a tough grilling this week at the hands of local 9News anchor Kyle Clark over his apparent hypocrisy when it comes to abortion rights....

roguetrick,

Not hard to get back in communion though. Francis made it so any literally priest can absolve you, not just Bishops.

roguetrick,

Win/Loss records are generally abbreviated as W/L. Take the L is it’s opposite.

roguetrick,

Ears are not the preferred food of the crab, but they’re quite adaptable.

roguetrick,

That’s just inconvenient consistency. It won’t win them any supporters but you have to be anti ivf if you believe zygotes or embryos have the same rights as full human beings.

I think a zygote has as much of an essential human character as my big toenail does, but at least they’re being consistent.

roguetrick,

Two cows and two comments or one cow and one comment. Does the content of the comment being the same make it the same comment or does their different storage location and display make them two comments? The digital ship of theseus.

Samuel Alito’s Wife Goes Full MAGA in Secret Recording (www.thedailybeast.com)

Martha-Ann Alito, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito, complained about the Pride flag, ranted about “feminazis,” and explained a flag design that she has been creating in her head in anticipation of when her husband is “free of this nonsense,” according to undercover audio released by a journalist and...

I grew up in on the border between Pennsylvania and Maryland dominated by many German families (fancy Dutch vs the plain Dutch aka Amish) and I’ve never heard any shit like that. Not even from the straight up racist ones. Crazy.

roguetrick,

Children are generally adverse to bitter tasting things. Hunter gatherer poison defense. Some folks are just more acutely sensitive to it.

Usually it’s brassicas that cause that yuck reaction. Cabbage, broccoli, cale.

roguetrick,

Beer and coffee you can aquire pretty easily if you want to, because of the drugs. I’m fat enough without beer though, so it’s still nasty to me. I speak with such confidence because I aquired a taste for campari which is about as bitter as Satan’s asshole. I hated it at first, just putting it on my tongue was an exercise in torture. Now I like it.

roguetrick,

Oh no worries about that, he’ll go on CIWA in the prison hospital and have a general bad time, but he won’t die.

Edit: www.bop.gov/resources/pdfs/detoxification.pdf (I’m a nurse and have done plenty of CIWA. I have a feeling the BOP aren’t too liberal with the benzos though.)

roguetrick,

This is why I only search somethingawful’s archives for answers to my questions.

    I’m not a fan of selling meats and certain perishable dairy products without plastic. I know the vegans have an easy response to this, but let me beg the question on that.

    Glass is a great option for many things, but it would significantly raise the prices of certain foods like premade stock which are currently shipped in something like a tetrapak cardboard/plastic hybrid due to weight.

    You could likely use a resin to replace the plastic in that sort of packaging, like they use resins instead of plastic for can liners, but I don’t know if epoxy is really an improvement from either a biological (your body sure won’t break it down and better than plastic) or ecological standpoint.

    roguetrick, (edited )

    Humorously, waxed paper is generally a modified parrafin, a petroleum product that often contains some plastic to change how it polymerizes. Overall not much better than the tetrapaks.

    You could use a plant based wax though.

    On the subject of packaging costs: I wouldn’t use can prices to compare the cost of something like a tetrapak. That’s an extremely cheap option that doesn’t have anything to compare it to really. If there wasn’t a pressure issue I’m sure they’d sell beer and soda in cardboard plastic hybrids too in order to reduce cost.

    roguetrick, (edited )

    Beeswax. Very expensive. Plant based isn’t that expensive.

    Edit: Generally when we’re getting to “before paraffin” we’re getting to the bad old days when you’d buy your meat from a guy covered in blood and cow shit. Folks didn’t like traveling around the abbitoir district for good reason.

    Old name for those places in England were “the shambles.”

    roguetrick,

    She did win a very clear mandate though, with not just a plurality in a three man race but a commanding majority. That’s a whole lot of political capital to beat skulls with.

    Modi loses ground in parliament, but his Hindu nationalist policies are here to stay (thehill.com)

    For the first time since Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party swept to power in 2014, the party did not secure a majority on its own in 2024 national election. But the prime minister’s coalition is still expected to run the country for another five years....

    roguetrick,

    Just the BJP not getting a majority isn’t enough to stop the hindutva movements. It’s more of a blip than a trend at this point. It is good to see Modi get embarrassed though.

    roguetrick,

    This would hit much too close to home for too many folks. At least I imagine it would and thus believe it.

    roguetrick,

    Shouldn’t the grades be

    1/11

    And

    11/1__

    roguetrick,

    If it wasn’t for the third panel height difference, this would be a perfect loss representation. Since it was made in 1994, I can only assume that this is what Buckley traced over for his comic.

    Zelensky: 'Our partners fear that Russia will lose this war' (kyivindependent.com)

    President Volodymyr Zelensky believes that Ukraine’s partners “are afraid of Russia losing the war” and would like Kyiv “to win in such a way that Russia does not lose,” Zelensky said in a meeting with journalists attended by the Kyiv Independent....

    roguetrick,

    Yugoslavia is coming back? Hot damn the Balkans are gonna get together to kick all our asses led by zombie Tito. We deserve it.

    roguetrick,

    Slovakia and Prague will be joined back together when the EU gets more federal due to the resource wars. No need to rush it.

    roguetrick,

    Listen bud, English might’ve lost it’s way but we’ve still got Indo-European roots, so even rocks need genders.

    roguetrick, (edited )

    Oh I never washed mine. Just kept it in a plastic bag and wore it till the straps broke.

    Edit: downvotes make me laugh. For context, I was a pre vaccine nurse on a COVID unit for the duration of the pandemic. Never did catch it though from the hospital.

    Also wore a plastic face shield that I washed every time I left the room with bleach. Thankfully COVID is droplet spread so that’s plenty ppe. I wouldn’t have wanted to wear that N95 in a TB room though.

    roguetrick,

    Respiratory therapists only think about one thing and it’s disgusting.

    roguetrick,

    He might make it there fine too, if not a vermont special election isn’t the end of the world.
