I mention this in my comment too - sexual harassment about the wheelchair I've seen in person.

by joker_minmax 3y ago
I do think this is important as an awareness exercise, however, it is worth noting that a lot of the issues CANNOT be seen unless you actually do bring the wheelchair. I learned this in 2018 when as a student I attended a conference with a

If it's 3000 times sweeter, you still have to modify your usage of it in a recipe, even if the texture is the same. So your end product might have a different texture because of that quantity difference during the substitution.

I'd like to see more studying on this. I thought all sweet tasting things impacted your body's release of insulin in some regard because of your taste buds in your intestine? There is a lot of conflicting information on this topic

The polonium is not the only thing decaying in the tobacco, is all I meant.

Aquamation. It's basically like when murder victims get dissolved in a bathtub full of lye, except they charge you a ton to do it, and market it as a gentler alternative to cremation, because it uses less heat.

You'd have to pray your caregivers give you food that you actually like before you get teeth and the ability to walk.

So the scenario plays out: you get too old to have fun, so you metamorphosize back into a baby, which your now-adult children have to take care of. This is just as labor-intensive as care for the elderly you would have been, but now they ha

If you start as a baby your body is too small and weak to get anything on your own, so the foundation of your life is actually built by the people taking care of you. How could you customize being helpless to suit a later presumed lifestyle

I like to think have a lot of friends at surface level, and I used to have solidly close friends, but pretty much all of them moved to other states, so I see people in real life at about the same frequency as you. Some of them I maintain a

Tobacco also loves to collect uranium and thorium in the root. As much as I want to blame the company here, they're already selling poison. What percentage of it is their fault if the poison is even more poisonous?

American Spirit advertises themselves as tobacco without extra nicotine or other additives added. Not the same thing, but they're...trying. And no, they're probably not trying to cure cancer in the slightest. My grandpa was studyi

Delta airlines used my face as a boarding pass for flight to Canada out of Detroit Wayne Airport earlier this year. I scanned nothing, they made me take a picture, and then said "Enjoy your flight [name]." Delta did not even ask t

When I first saw this film, the most striking thing to me was the convincing worldbuilding. Every alien species they showcase maintains enough traits similar to animals we recognize, that you get this sense they could be real, but is just o

I wonder if this will partially solve the problem of people misusing BFF, or maybe it will make it worse? Some people I know have tried the BFF feature to find new friends upon moving cities but told me they keep getting flirted with by men

To me this reads as a really complicated form of physician assisted suicide. I also think the marketability of this would be complicated, as most adult people would want to start over in their teens or twenties, not as a baby.

Are instagram users a part of this? Or just Facebook proper?

If you (US Citizen) marry out of the country, and stay with your spouse (foreign citizen) in that country, how long is the current wait to come back into the country and have your spouse with you on a CR1 visa? And are there any advantages

Thanks for this. I didn't realize we could view tweets without accounts again, so I had been avoiding Twitter links like the plague.

The product of the industry is still a product of, and dependent on, that industry. Otherwise the industry would not exist, and the product would exist, but in much different form than most people encounter it today.

You can be one of the passengers on a cargo ship like Greta Thunberg if cruises aren't for you. There are different places to book.

I feel similarly. It feels like a strategic distraction from many more important things at hand. Convenient way to bury some heads in sand while they get away with other things.

You should look into the GirlsDoPorn case where the actresses were forced into signing their contracts under duress. When they wanted their content removed because of this, PornHub enacted the most useless content recognition software ever,

Keep cash alive. I wouldn't pay with card at a dispensary anyway because someone would see it on your statement and use it to make decisions about you. Stay cautious. It is annoying that Mastercard are like they are, but it's a co

I know it doesn't amount to anything, but attempting to spank a company this way is the only time I really get happy about what the government did today, so I hope this time it actually changes something. But I don't think the tax

I don't really see them as forcing it. I think people just enjoy the crossover idea of Barbie having constructed the atomic bomb, and they think that's funny.
