Absolutely know they're a thing (used to teach high school). But this driver neither had, nor consulted a list, so the ID demand was security theater.

So pointing out that in other situations this COULD have been good practice is trying to win an argument no one was having.

May I offer you one (1) long boy in these trying times?

Yes, this thread would have a very different tone if all the facts were materially different.

You got a point in there somewhere?

Stealing this phrasing!

Opal takes surveillance duty seriously.

Next time I have to move or change insurance, I'm tranq-darting all my medical people and taking them with me. It's so hard a) finding good ones that listen, and b) training them up when you're medically complicated.

Yeah we always just called it organic. I went to a large university in Kentucky (not that one…not that one either) in the early aughts.

If you are in Baltimore, and you haven't had an adult MMR booster or recent titers, now is the time to get that booster! Mumps immunity is more susceptible to waning than measles and it needs a single adult booster after age 18 or so for maximum efficacy!

It’s a little known fact that Fangorn Forest maintained less-lethal forces for crowd control.

My parents didn’t have power for three months and my mom drank water out of a jug that she filled from a stream and my dad ate breadfruit that fell off his trees and they’re white and have money

It was transforming the biggest NFL stage in the world into a sugar cane plantation that did it for me.

Like, the multiple layers of turning an American icon into a plantation and highlighting the history of exploitation of Black and Brown bodies by the NFL and American colonialism simultaneously?

So far the only part that's been watchable.

That was...not the lyric.

Malinin puts in an amazing performance just in time to return as Steward of Gondor.

No, because if they truly behave as homeologs, A won’t line up with B at synapsis. So you’d get enforced AB gametes and you’d get back AABB babies.

No, they’d give AB gametes if acting purely as allopolyploids (eg like diploids).

Granted, we all know well-behaved polyploids are mostly a fiction…

I have SO MANY questions.
Is there a paper for this?

I wonder how many plant species have gone extinct, but their genomic legacy lives on as intact subgenomes of extant allopolyploids.

The Washington Department of Natural Resources makes a good point.

Every line of best fit is now SVM with a linear kernel.

I’ve put the deadline in my calendar as April 1st to see if I can trick my brain into meeting the real deadline this year!
