  • You're right. Broken neck during delivery, caused by excessive force from the doctor.

    Absolutely horrifying

  • Zone, soil type, and sun would help narrow things down.

    Lemongrass did well for me, but that won't survive most winters. Unless you're okay with keeping things in pots and wintering indoors

  • Wait, who was the third person he murdered? I thought one couple survived and the wife was released from hospital today?

  • To be fair, I am also a millennial, but most of my friends were surprised when I told them about that correction I received from the younger generation. I guess that says more about my friends than millennials overall lol

  • I haven't worked in retail for over a decade, but that was the biggest fight I kept having with district managers/corporate. They kept telling me to hire more associates for one shift a week, when I already had keyholders and associates who were begging for more hours.

    Shit, sometimes I "called out sick" just to give them more hours without letting anyone else know ahead of time. That lack of financial security is not good for morale or productivity, and I hate that the bosses refuse to acknowledge that

  • I've heard from Gen Z that ending a text response with a period is passive aggressive. So "cool" may have seemed glib on its own, but the punctuation might be giving an additional, if unintentional, tone

  • Add that any products grown for trade are sitting unwanted in fields, or for aid rotting in warehouses because the government canceled the contracts for them. Food is often held in special warehouses where the oxygen is pumped out, but there aren't enough of those to hold all the excess that was expected to be sent elsewhere

    It's a colossal mess, with an incredible amount of waste

  • I hate to be a jerk, but that's not an atlas moth. I'm my opinion, cecropia moths are much, much prettier than atlas moths. And this one is gorgeous!

  • But there’s a tradeoff. The patients, however, require immune-suppressing drugs for life, so that the immune system doesn’t destroy the cells.

    That was my question on reading the headline. Type 1 diabetes is an immune disorder, what they did here is replace the cells that had been killed by the immune system.

    A second patient, according to the study, died of severe dementia.

    Also, wtf. Why did they allow a patient with severe dementia into the study? If it's only a one or two year long study that person would have been displaying dementia already and likely couldn't actually consent to it

  • This is anecdotal, but 22 years ago I attended an event where the US Air Force proudly played a video of a Predator drone strike. I was a teenager who avidly gamed, and felt horror at what I was forced to witness because I knew these were real people who were dying agonizing deaths

    To this day I still feel the same emotions when I think of it, and I can't listen to Drowning Pool's "Bodies" because that's the song they played to accompany the footage

  • I am ashamed to say I mained this character for a bit and only recognized it on the final animation. I stopped playing almost a decade ago though

  • I'm glad this was the ruling. But will it stand up to appeal? In the 80s federal funding for highways was withheld unless the state complied with the new minimum age for drinking alcohol.

    Edit: it was only 10% of the allocated funds, so maybe there is a chance

  • I tried to save Iran humiliation and death. I tried to save them very hard because I would have loved to have seen a deal worked out

    That's... that's not why anyone tries to save human lives, Donald.

    Edit: this was meant to be a reply to simplejack

  • I don't know why, but I think of the Oblongs every time I see Steven Miller's head. Like Milo grew up to be him or something lol

  • That's why he's trying to criminalize any ideology besides whatever his is. RFK Jr also talked about "work camps" for people with mental health issues.

  • Uhhh... that thing where people glue little strands of hair to their forehead in an arc

    Do you mean styling baby hairs?

  • doctors could refuse to treat veterans based on their "reason for seeking care - including allegations of rape and sexual assault - current or past political party affiliation or political activity, and personal behavior such as alcohol or marijuana use".

    An incredibly high number of veterans (or anyone, really) with PTSD have or had substance use disorder. A large percentage of those same veterans have MST (military sexual trauma). Quite a lot of people are discharged from the military following disclosure of being a victim of rape or sexual assault while serving. This is going to lead to more veterans killing themselves because they aren't getting the care they deserve
