Finally.

Yeah, I was there thinking 'pretty sure he was using it against Germans, being an ethnic minority doesn't mean you don't count'. Also, there's not much of a difference between scooping up innocent people to kill them with gas rather than just killing innocent people with gas on the street.

Lol. From the boredom of my current job.

Actually, I got the picture with the storm trooper first.

So, today I got swept off my feet at work. http://i873.photobucket.com/albums/ab299/manateejess/tmp_10164-20170411_150503-830410881.jpg http://i873.photobucket.com/albums/ab299/manateejess/tmp_10164-20170411_150506-108933639.jpg All I did was ask for a photo. He surprised me by picking me up. Also, ...

Your doctor does not do medical research on you, or perform experiments on his patients. This isn't actually true. It depends on the doctor. I mean, a doctor isn't going to do research on you without your consent, but there are generally various trials happening, at least in a lot of hospitals in t...

That's a pretty cute menagerie.

Oh me yarm that is the worst.

Yeah, I guess. But they never look at tongue cleaning by itself so doesn't really make much sense.

I don't know, it was probably just paid for by a toothbrush that has a tongue cleaner on the back.

The person in the flat next to mine appears to have bought a drum set. Every day for the last 2 weeks there has been a period of drumming.

God, I hope this house goes through. I'm so glad that it's detached.

I don't know about this subject, but I must say that I don't understand how that paper is concluding that you should do both. They didn't seem to show any long term differences in bacteria in the plaque or bacteria on the tongue (there was a decrease in the total amount of tongue bacteria on day 3, ...

I don't really have anything to rant about, I just feel like ranting.

I don't know, maybe I'm just tired and lonely.

Grumble grumble grumble.

Well, at least it's not Hilary getting us into a nuclear war

Reverse of last year, our men won, women lost.

At least the unexploded bomb didn't cause a problem.

And yet I can't help but think that her adamantine skeleton won't grow with her.

Can I be excited about the Batgirl move that's just been announced?

I mean, I know it's DCEU (we need a fingernail biting smiley) but it's also being directed by Joss Whedon?

One of the fired aides is not going to testify without guaranteed immunity.

It might be nothing, but...

To be fair, 11 weeks premie is going to cost more anyway. Not really comparable to a fullterm birth.

NICE still approves recommended treatments using QALYs in the UK.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-39388815 Trump blames the democrats - they couldn't get 1 democrat to vote for it. Oh dear. Pity about the majority of republicans you had who couldn't have voted as well. Also, I love this quote We learned about loyalty; we learned a lot about the vote-get...

I was kind of disappointed.

There was not enough singing. I wanted the only way to convince [redacted] to [redacted] to be to burst in to song, and both Barry and Kara being all 'not again'.

It was super cute though.

Also, the Cubs finally won the world series.

No, but then you still have the problems matching up the circulations. Anyway, a kidney transplant is the way you should go. Dialysis is not a good permanent solution, and we're describing a scenario where you have someone who's a match. Also, for the identical twin cancer thing - I don't think so. ...

I mean, if they're giving the argument that if they'd told the women they might have had an abortion, that's pretty explicit rather than 'there are lots of things to mention and I just forgot this specific one.

That would effectively be the same as a transplant. Ignoring the problems getting the two circulatory systems to function together you'd run into tissue rejection. It's also hard to get blood types that match up exactly - you've got all the random ones like Kell and Duffy that start being a problem ...

Dude, seriously???? Also, Nigeria didn't really have a problem with Ebola (they actually stopped it propagating extremely effectively). But, you know, please continue. Also, it's a good thing that the US has no problems with oil pipes and tribal conflicts. Certainly no racial tension in the West wha...

Sorrel is made from hibiscus flowers and would go well with allspice. Sorrel the drink is made ( at least in nevis) from sorrel, cloves, ginger and allspice but I bet you'd be fine with any combination. Due to the lack of allspice leaves in England (and buying thr berries online too much of a faff) ...

I think I've solved spontaneous human combustion.

Well, this is a new horror.

People send strobing tweets to person with epilepsy, hoping to trigger seizures (and possibly death). Thankfully, the police have held the instigator.

A group that's been described as a 'Hate group' against women and lgbtiq is representing the US at the UN conference on women's rights.

Fair enough

I'm not disputing that fragmenting it will be difficult. I'm disputing that if we did have a magical way to fragment it to a 'cloud of fragments of the same aggregate mass and kinetic energy' that that would not be useful in the 'avoiding an extinction level event' sense.

Surely it's the impact with the ground that's the problem though? Not the worry about it knocking the planet off course or something.

Wouldn't a cloud be better though, because they'll burn up in the atmosphere? Get a great shooting star show though.

More of just a marker of the anniversary of Sir Terry's death.

But, modmadness - I'll admitted I'd kind of forgotten about this until now.

On the bright side, the trailer that dropped last night looks pretty awesome.

My hopes are climbing. I hope DC doesn't screw this up.

It was nice seeing the main (possibly only) poster inside a bank window being a gay couple hugging with 'He said yes! Now for the next big step' (which I assume is getting a mortgage together). I'm glad that non-heteronormative things are becoming more common . Also, I was super happy when I saw a w...
