Furries aren’t as recent as people tend to think either I might point out, the subculture has existed in some form since like the 80s to my understanding, it’s just more popular and visible these days.

I saw a post earlier on my mastodon mentioning this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protocol_on_Mines,_Booby-Traps_and_Other_Devices I do see “portable objects” mentioned, but given that the section is otherwise about stuff associated with children, I’m not sure if pagers would qualify or not.
Especially since if he was standing up, it wouldn’t be possible for an attacker to get an arrow in him in that direction anyway
It does make me wonder though, if there is a need for just the warhead portion of these weapons and not always for the whole missile and launcher, if it might not make sense to get the manufacturer to just make some of the warhead bit by itself and send a delivery with a few of the systems replaced with the extra loose warheads, to use aid resources (and the time of whoever is taking the missile apart again) more efficiently.
I assume that the whole “Stalin starved his people” thing isn’t talking about the average conditions of the Soviet Union during more “normal” times, but rather specific events of mass starvation like the Holodomor. That being said, famine caused by accidental or malicious management of agriculture is something hardly unique to any single economic system (I imagine a comparison could be made to the Irish potato famine there, for an example of a similar type of disaster under a different economic system), so I’m not sure if it reflects entirely on the kind of system the Soviets were going for as much as it does mistakes in the process of transitioning to that system, and malfeasance on the part of those in charge in pushing the consequences of those mistakes upon disfavored groups.
Step 1: create a new instance of some platform, so as to be able to repost without moderation issues
Step 2: set up bot to repost 8 billion times
Step 3: Rawr!
I don’t think these myths are meant to be taken completely literally, but in any case, Zeus isn’t exactly the most upstanding and consistent deity out of all mythologies.
No stomach? Hadn’t heard that one before
Would fit right in with those NCD people that are always lusting over planes, I guess.
The time of entertainment per dollar is probably a bit different too I think. Depending on the replayability of the game in question, one can buy a game and get enjoyment out of it for hundreds or in some cases over a thousand hours. Meanwhile, even if you really enjoy a movie and rewatch it like 10 different times, that’s still only like 20 hours. Movies tend to be cheaper to buy than games individually, but I suspect that buying enough movies to make up the time difference would make the movies significantly more expensive.
It’s very similar to the concept of blood libel I think, just directed at a different group than that term usually refers to. Which, given what that kind of thing historically has led to, is extremely concerning coming from such a public figure.
This must be what that one cop was afraid of
Stick it to a garlic farmer by buying their garlic? Even if selling it again means that they dont get the sales at that event, thats still garlic sold at previous events above the amount that they might otherwise have sold. Maybe growing more changes things, but unless one is a farmer oneself, I doubt one can so easily grow more garlic that a professional garlic farmer, because of the land and tools needed.
Something I’ve been a bit confused on about this: my understanding was that generally, crew capsules that a crew went up in were kept docked so as to serve as an escape mechanism if for whatever reason the station has to be evacuated. I also had read that while they couldn’t be sure that returning in starliner was safe, they at least previously thought it probably safe, just not enough to be sure of, and in an emergency scenario would still have been more likely than not okay to use. With the starliner now having been returned to earth then, is there a plan for it’s crew in the event of an evacuation? Is there sufficient room aboard other crew vehicles to return them in such a case, for example?
Meanwhile, if successful, they’d probably complain about traffic and blame it on cyclists being slow in the car lanes
I have, that was how I heard about them in the first place actually
I’ll believe it when they actually generate net electricity output. I don’t necessarily think they’re a scam per se, but given the relative resources available and difficulty even for international projects to get fusion power working, I don’t suspect their efforts will be successful. Would love to be proven wrong of course, or if not for their work to at least contribute useful progress to the effort.
I’ve seen a number of people suggest it might have been originally implied to be a fig or date, given the age and habitat of those fruits, not that it really matters what species
Realistically she’s got quite a few of those, but when given a bad but not fundamentally different from what one had before option, and a make everything far worse option, and a situation that makes trying to choose a third option an exercise in futility, the choice is a no-brainer.
Oh I mean, yeah, anthro characters are probably older than civilization, but I meant the furry fandom as a specific subculture rather than specifically the subject it is centered around.
