I got distracted and forgot to look it up…thanks ADHD…
In 2000, an enormous supercolony of Argentine ants was found in Southern Europe (report published in 2002).[15] Of 33 ant populations tested along the 6,004-kilometre (3,731 mi) stretch along the Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts in Southern Europe, 30 belonged to one supercolony with estimated millions of nests and billions of workers, interspersed with three populations of another supercolony.

Blurb is under the “super colony” subsection.
Isn’t there one giant ant colony that’s essentially the same colony spread over several us states?
I’ll have to look it up and get back to this with answers.
Loads of LGBTQ2S+ folk in the States are hoping that Canada might be a safe haven until the American army jackboots their way north. My trans sister and her American wife included. I’m very concerned that if little PP gets in that might not be the case. My sister would be able to get in as we’re Canadian, but her wife might not be able to.
This is definitely the worst timeline.
I’m from Vancouver, but live in Scotland. So got to listen to the play by playing collapse of rational thought in real time. By the time my shift started I was having a full blown panic attack…

Nope, if you look, this is pretty standard.
We’re going to try a few rounds of Private, then try for a surrogate, and then adopt/foster. We’d ideally like one of ours, but we know there’s loads of kids that need a stable home.
Prayed too hard
Maybe it’s time for me to find religion…
Yeah, over in the UK(depending on what country) if you’re under 40 you get 2-4(?) rounds on the NHS. But due to the pandemic, and us moving to Scotland from London, my wife turned 40 before we were able to be seen. Our one round had two embryos, one botched implant because the clinic was adamant that they implant unfrozen, despite the hormones from up/down regulation for egg retrieval causing such massive inflammation for my wife that it took an hour and a half to implant(should be less than 10 minutes.) The second embryo failed before it could be implanted. So now we’re going for private in Athens. Even with last minute flights, last minute accommodation and transport costs while we’re there, it’ll be £3000-£4000 cheaper than going private here in Scotland.
And even then we’re looking at remortgaging our house to afford it. We’re by no means poor. What was it my wife called us…DINKs? Dual Income, No Kids. And we own the house we live in outright thanks to her parents buying at the right time, and her inheriting early enough to avoid any excess taxes. But we have basically no disposable income. In one hand, out the other.
Anyway, I hope for all the best with you two. It’s an absolute motherfucker. If you’ll pardon my french…
We watched a bit, it was good, but hit to close to home for the Mrs.
I’m 38, wife is 40, absolutely heartbreaking. We’ve been trying for 5 years, went to the NHS for IVF, but because of the pandemic we “aged out” of multiple rounds. The one go we had didn’t result in pregnancy, and if we can’t conceive with as many rounds as we can afford private were planning to adopt. Which is pretty difficult in the UK actually.
The National Post should definitely investigate John Travolta.
Yes, 1000000% yes. Wtf has he even been doing lately? Some Scientology stuff is probably the answer, but I for one would welcome some proper Gonzo journalism, a heady deep dive into what the actual fuck John Travolta has been the fuck up to. Also fuck the Tories, classic federal ones and the Fascy new BC ones.
I’m conflicted, on the one hand…fuck FIFA, on the other hand, fuck most of the people who own hotels
I’m sure they do, however, as with 90%+ of most EULA’s contents, that wouldn’t stand up as legally binding in a fair number of countries.
As Russ notes, this is the second strike from Nintendo on his channel. The first, it’s worth pointing out, was related to his coverage of a device which allows you to dump Switch games to your computer
[My emphasis]
It should be noted, the only way to legally play an emulated game is to dump the files off a cart/cd/floppy/w.e that you personally own. Which makes this even more egregious, as the video is about a device that could be used for piracy, but is also one of the only ways to legally make a backup of your property.
Yep, just as bad as I remember.
Look… I’m not entirely convinced JREG has enough of the whatsit…uhhhh…rizz. But mfr, if all those assholes were doing was rambling incoherently? I’ll take that cash. Papa needs to…get double glazing on the windows so we afford to not freeze to death over the winter…
I thought it was the gas station meth
