Thank you! Can’t wait to dig in.

Do you have a favorite for aquaponics? Also I’d love the food forest ones and propagation.

They tried their damnedest, but somehow they still make the mayor sound based as hell.

Hey, actual uplifting news! Thanks for posting!

In mice embryos.

I feel like that’s a pretty big detail left off the title.

Interesting. Do you have a time limit to find them before an embryo forms, or are these unfertilized like chicken eggs?

Also do the moms get territorial around this time like the wild ones do?

UHC backed off on some of their more egregious profit-increasing changes (including trying not to cover anesthesia over certain arbitrary time limits).

Anything to help fellow weirdos survive middle and high school. Shit gets rough sometimes, but you’ll be alright.

Honestly your smile probably looks fine. Just don’t go full smiling with your teeth showing while in conversations.

I’ll still forget to change my facial expressions from time to time. Mirroring others helps. Try to (low-key) monitor their facial expressions and slightly copy them. They’re smiling broadly, you smile a bit. They frown deeply, you put on a concerned look - just furrow your brow a little.

Combining mirroring their expressions with listening more than you talk and they’ll feel like you’re a really good listener.

It takes time.

I first noticed other people looking for eye contact in 7th grade. Add that to your mask first.

Next, you likely can’t express excitement “normally,” but it’s fairly easy to fake aloofness. Be chill.

Finally, listen more than you talk. Most people love talking. If they feel like you’re really listening to them, they’ll want to talk to you.

I started making my mask in middle school, but honestly it was probably halfway through high school before it felt like a “normal” person. Even then, and now 30 or so years later, it takes effort. It feels like I’m faking it a lot, and I guess that’s because I am. But my boss just complimented my personal skills, so faking it IS it.

Keep pretending. Keep noticing what the “normals” are doing and work to imitate it. Not overtly. Just be a little quiet, chime in when you have something, and practice. And you’ll notice even when you’re trying to blend in, you’ll likely attract other neurodivergent people that will make up your core friend group.

I like the suplex but it doesn’t need the dialog.

Stop knocking over their straw man! They worked so hard to prop it up.

Hell yeah, I’ll have to try this. Do you put a tray of water in with it for the first half of the bake, or just let it ride? Also does it still take roughly 50 minutes?

I’m actually disappointed he didn’t have some goofy explanation.

Did the Soviets not have their own Operation Paperclip?

I finished Netflix during night feeds for the first 6 months of my son’s life.

Oh no! I love Pepe but he’s no Rizzo. That’s heartbreaking.

Damn straight! Countries should be able to invade and annex other countries without fear of reprisal! What’s this world coming to?

It isn’t as optimistic as that. If I understood it right, it’s just a couple used car private equities that did some shady banking in order to not have to use their own money to pay for the cars they were selling, then going bankrupt because the customers couldn’t keep up with the over inflated monthly payments.

So the only people that were screwed were the customers. The “companies” that declared bankruptcy were likely just shells playing with other people’s money. Used car prices are unaffected.

Lol I was gonna say, the dramatic music would really ruin the punchline
