Hell yeah! Love the energy, love the break beats, need more of both in this world.
Same for my two cats, they are on non-chicken diets (rabbit-based and I think duck-based) and their vomiting, diarrhea, and itchiness have all been greatly reduced or outright eliminated.
My partner (a practicing small animal veterinarian) sorted them out a few years ago, and also confirms that chicken allergies are super common. They were fine for 5 or 6 years of their lives, then they just were unable to handle the chicken. Figuring out which of the alternatives they liked enough to consistently eat was the toughest part, lol, they're super picky.
According to the story I heard as to the origin of the "no liquids over X amount" rule, years ago there was a terrorist that tried to smuggle hydrogen peroxide and acetone - which can be used to rather easily synthesize triacetone triperoxide (TATP, a highly sensitive explosive) - onto a plane in plastic toiletry bottles. They got caught and foiled somehow, and then the TSA started restricting liquids on planes. This was in the immediate aftermath of 9/11, if I recall correctly.
And I happen to know, from a reliable source, of someone who accidentally made TATP in a rotary evaporator in an academic lab. So it seems plausible.
Not that the rule is actually effective prevention against similar attacks, nor that the TSA even knows what the reason is behind what they do at this point, haha. I just thought it was an interesting story.
Worse object permanence ability than my dumbass cats. Or maybe just liars, also like (but worse than) my cats.
(Slight) hyperbole aside, it seems like a week doesn't go by without reading about another brown child or teenager being aged up when the capitalist owned media wants to run cover for wanton government violence against them. This is from the same rotten root that leads to black, indigenous, and immigrant children in the US getting long prison sentences (and in the past, executed) after being tried as adults for crimes that, if they were white, would much more likely see them tried in juvenile court.
Sorry for veering off topic, I happened to recently read a paper on disparities in the US judicial process by race for juvenile defendants, and needed to vent.
Good for her, well done! Not as pretty of a tattoo as a well-drawn organic molecule, IMO, but publishing is hard and worthy of celebration when you succeed.
Fascists trying to pit marginalized groups against each other. Classic move, but kind of played out at this point.
When people have compassion and empathy for oppressed people's suffering, the right thing to do is help them survive and end the suffering, full stop. There may be an added benefit later on where individuals become more compassionate themselves as a result, but that is not the primary goal - just a really nice bonus we get sometimes.
This artist still thinks he can help divide & conquer people with shit like this, but it's weak af in today's environment. Our younger generations see right through it.
I have an Astell & Kern SR25 MKII DAP (digital audio player) and I use it quite frequently. The sound quality far surpasses what my phone can produce when connected to any of my speakers or headphones.
It plays FLAC files and any other audio file type you can think of. And it acts as an offline music library when needed (64 GB of memory plus a 1TB microSD).
The better the headphones/speakers I use, the more it outshines anything coming out of my other electronic devices. I use it almost every day.
100% spot on, sadly. The level of misogyny and other types of bigotry was the most surprising, when taken relative to the university environment in general.
