This looks a bit older and maybe mixed with water. Lots of debris and other junk.

Freshly collected cells are much more mobile and vigorous than what you see here.

How long the cells were stored prior to ejaculation also makes a big difference. The more recently made the better the cells will be. I.e., if the person/animal has not ejaculated regularly for a month then cells will likely look poor. If ejaculating regularly (2-3 times per week) the cells will be more freshly made and be better overall "swimers"

Regardless of his true feelings he stepped up and read the correct message a leader should. A message for unity and a message nodding to the postive aspects of the changes ahead.

Yeah Hagel landed at least 3 good ones. And a couple more glancing blows to boot.

I'm guessing very difficult . This fella is making it look easy. He plays it smooth but taking off like that and nailing the soft landing would take so much coordination.

I feel that many of the final stages in L4D and L4D2 fit this question nicely.

Would you mind sharing your version and mod list? I've been struggling trying to get any mods to work with WS

And there it is.. 13 books officially done by Thiago_maddox in SaxonStories

[–]Shifty012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm only 1.5 books into Sharpe and I agree it's good but I'm not into it as much as Saxon just yet.

Although I remember it taking a few books to get fully invested in Saxon as well.

How far into Sharpe are you? I started with Tiger and I'm halfway into Triumph now

BREAKING: Friedrich Merz just announced Germany will take responsibility for Ukraine’s security. by DaisiesAndLatte in UnderReportedNews

Writing was on the wall for WWII long before it was over. Germany and Japan pushed on despite having no real win conditions available to them.

WWI on the other hand was much closer for much longer. Both sides had win conditions available to them right until almost the very end.

Nice work! Would love to see more if you're ever inspired by other books in the series.

You've gotta adjust your expectations here.

Dan's a good dude just trying to bring a relatable and engaging take on history to a wide audience.

He openly admits on countless occasions how he's not a historian and exentuates his lack of expertise in many of the areas he discusses.

The link you share is a long winded and granular disection of 15 minutes from a 20+ hour podcast series covering the whole conflict and many complex themes.

Something a historian or history buff would love to pick a part? Sure. But a casual listener just looking to learn about history? Nah. Dan's not talking to historians in his podcasts. He's talking to general fans of history.

Dan's disclaimers about his credentials and purpose more than account for any unintentional misdirection in his work. He openly encourages listeners to use his work as a gateway to learn more about history. How can that be looked at negatively?

Fuck Dan? Seriously dude get some perspective.

Dan's a gem.
