Hard to multiply without a host.

I think it's worth noting that we can't even combat the real horrors. The fox is already in the henhouse. The quote that sticks with me is: "We've already lost our first encounter …

Genetic diversity is a damnable thing. Listen to your body. Mine gets "hot" when I drink (I suspect it's general inflammation when my liver is working overtime to break everything …

I would watch this romcom.

If you ever get the opportunity, have a chicken perch on your finger. First thing you'll notice is much lighter they are than they look. Second thing you'll notice is how hot their…

Hey I'm trying to alleviate this issue from a technical standpoint and am trying to find others to join me. It's no cure-all, but the other paths would upend a century of legal pre…

"You’re supposed to make only two quarts of Kool-Aid from a package, but he always made a gallon, so his Kool-Aid was a mere shadow of its desired potency. And you’re supposed to a…

Still waiting for January and my morning ritual of juicing a small grapefruit into an 8oz ice-filled mason jar. It's a damn shame we haven't figured out how to coerce citrus like w…

Nice things I own: 1. 1zpresso hand grinder 2. 1974 Honda CL125S 3. Black totem cam x 2 Everything else can go to the dump as far as I'm concerned.

The way I read it:they inserted the manager as a litmus test AGAINST aggression / toxic culture. Kind of like when a psychology test is given, the __thing__ they're trying to measu…

If posts with multiple paragraphs encircling a topic seems suspect, then we're all guilty. Their points are cogent. If they've dressed the arguments in robes of "purple", so be it.…

Isn't the real mis-step of this study that they put the rats on a HFD 3 (three!) days before testing? I thought it was common knowledge that the transitory periods of ketosis eleva…

Wow I didn't scroll down far enough. The gang is back together (Liebeck and Rawdon) and they even threw in Kroo for good measure. This has all the heavy hitters gathered under the …

Not just the board. Their CTO came up with the idea (with two other legendary greybeards) years before most of us were sucking air. Mark's been at the heart of the LA aerospace sce…
