Weird that the article never mentioned Iowa's incredibly restrictive abortion laws and it's affect on obstetrics.

As a former 3a owner this project is entirely awesome to me. Really cool stuff and really well done.
I'm not sure the watcher would want this one recorded.
Anecdotaly, if ever a bat gets into your home and is flying around unable to escape, the easiest way to relocate it safely is to slap it out of the air with a bath towel whip.
In college, my best friend did this to a bat on his first try and it became the stuff of legend. Years later, stay at a hostel with some friends, a bat got into our room and I remembered the towel trick. First try! It was surprisingly intuitive.
I carried the bat (after getting gloves) outside where it lept from my hands and flew to safety.
The more you know!
"Hence the phrase, 'Greedy as a pig.'"
Oh that whole thing is the cope cage! I thought it was just a building behind it or something.
Completely agree. I love discovering ultra niche podcasts.
How is Guild Wars 2 these days? Any noteworthy improvements to gameplay or have the post few years mostly been about content, leaving the formula relatively unchanged?

I blasted through so many clue things on this one. It was pure panic after my third word gave me no additional intel. What a nightmare.
I can’t speak for anyone else, but I’m okay with news that sad so long as it’s not all the news we get. Life can be sad and nature can be harsh, that’s just the reality of loving wild things.
You’re applying the behavior of Republicans under Trump in 2024 to their behavior in 2016 under Mitch McConnell, which is not a fair way to interpret history.
The Republicans’ primary goal has always been to consolidate power, a strategy evident even before Trump’s influence. This was evident in 2016 when McConnell blocked Merrick Garland’s appointment. It wasn’t just about denying Obama a win; it was about maintaining control over the Supreme Court. By holding the position open, they ensured a conservative majority with Gorsuch’s appointment in 2017.
While their actions under Trump have often seemed erratic and without principle, the decision to block Garland was a calculated, strategic move rooted in the same pursuit of power. Viewing their behavior solely through the lens of recent events, like the border bill, ignores the broader, consistent strategy they have employed over the years.
The move to block Garland was a clear demonstration of their long-term strategy to secure judicial power, not an isolated act of obstructionism. This context is crucial for understanding the continuity in their approach to power, rather than seeing it as a sudden shift in behavior.
I'll recommend cosmoteer from this list. Really excellent little game that intends to be a superior Escape Velocity, SPAZ. etc... But with outlandishly complex and rewarding ship building.
The rest of the Galaxy is still a bit sparse, but they have a roadmap that I think will genuinely make this a game to play for decades.
