Dang, I should’ve checked that before opening my mouth.

All I can picture is the scene in Humans where the synth prostitutes get hosed down. In the next scene, one of them breaks some dude’s neck.

Reading this and scrolling a bit suggests that the Jezzies find it as stupid as you appear to.

I haven’t seen capitalism providing free birth control, that’s the easy way of reducing the number of children teens and young women have- https://www.nytimes.com/2015/07/06/science/colorados-push-against-teenage-pregnancies-is-a-startling-success.html

Presumably that’s because child welfare in the USA is calculated the same as the UK, it’s a fixed amount per child, based on the idea that each child will incur a certain cost to care for. I don’t think it accounts for the money you can save by using hand-me-downs but welfare’s ridiculously complex as it is.

My sister’s did. My parent’s got either the top or middle deck of the cake after the wedding and it spent the next 20 years on top of a kitchen cupboard until we moved house. It was dry af by then but still looked fine, however, nobody was brave enough to try it. In the end I put it out in a flowerbed and watched it…

Yep, any worries about the Queen’s impending mortality are usually at least 50% “Oh shit, Charles is going to be on the throne”.

Yes, you can have a “plod-free” space.

Taps and dies have a different cutting geometry to thread chasers. They’ll do the job but it’s a lot easier to accidentally cut a brand new thread that’s at an angle to or offset from the original thread than with a chaser. It’s easiest to cock it up with a starting tap as the long lead-in makes it harder to…

Ah, no pushing then.

The stupid focus clippy thing poped off the caliper when they took pulled the tire “That’s the metal on metal contact” I told them they were idiots they knocked it loose for a second time and that it didn’t show any wear / scraping.

I wonder if somebody turned the valve the wrong way on the hydraulics and pushed instead of pulled or vice versa...

It minimises the economic impact of closing or narrowing a road but more importantly for the decision makers it avoids having a load of people phoning the mayor’s office complaining about a road closure.

I wonder if Kim Jong-Un will have Ivanka negotiate with one of his kids... or Kim Yo Jong.

CO poisoning causes nausea and a really fucking bad headache so it might fail the ‘cruel’ bit of ‘cruel and unusual’. It kills you by binding all of the haemoglobin in your blood as carboxyhaemoglobin and asphyxiates you from the inside out in a similar way to a low dose of cyanide, only slower. CO is also relatively…
