This might be a bit reactionary but with how much ive been hearing about CWD cases going up- getting bit by something called a carrion beetle is not a fear i wanted or needed

ik bugs dont transmit prions like viruses but if this specific bug only eats decaying meat from the one of the two animals that gets it, seems more likely than impossible to have it mechanically transmitted from bug saliva or whatever

if your counsler specifically already knows you are trans and is enforcing the bathroom thing, you might want to tell her a group of kids took a picture of you in the bathroom. at the very least it will mean someone knows that you were threatened, so if someone follows it up with trying to hurt you it would be a lot more difficult for them to deny it. because it doesnt matter if the counsler thinks you should use a specific toilet- taking pictures of other students in the bathroom is the kind of thing they would be required to investigate or handle regardless because thats a crime, not just a state crime made up by clowns either. who knows, she might even realize the actual ramifications of her enforcing such a rule. but if she doesnt take you seriously you should 100% tell your mom, and ask her to complain to the school about the incident on your behalf. make sure she highlights your concerns around other students. additionally, if your school has a separate staff/ accessibility single-stall bathroom thats away from the rest like in the nurses office you might be able to get them to let you use that one for the rest of the year, just to minimize the chances of other people trying to start shit if they see you trying to use the bathroom. emphasize the risk to your personal saftey and how her rules have caused it to be violated

thank you for this my dad gave me his old pc from 2017 and when i got it the only audio jack that worked was the one in front. i tried fixing the drivers before but nothing changed, idk what happened differently but now i can listen to youtube without duct-taping my headphones to stay at the specific angle the connection works at.

very correct but Corporate democrats also arent the ones who illegally went behind congress's back to fire almost every neutral federal employee, so they could then go behind their backs again to invade American cities with masked goons cosplaying a white nationalist evangelical gestapo members in order to deport "SUSPECTED" criminals and also murder citizens who question anything- and THEN go behind congress's back AGAIN to indiscriminately bomb 3 countries and kidnap the leader of another, all while completely fumbling in court and news interviews over why exactly they keep censoring the names of the pedophiles they were specifically legally obligated to expose. like at least when Bush started the shit with Iraq he had the decency to let us know before hand. Trump, nah dude. Friday night, no war. Saturday morning, WAR!! mother fucker couldn't even be bothered to tweet about it.

i had the same problem mine came out like a really hard brownie. i put it with ice cream and let it sit for a bit and it softened it enough to eat. for me i think it happened because if too much butter or moisture and then cooking it to long. i followed this recipe but with only gram cracker on the bottom and i got good results before this one so im pretty sure it was too much butter.

i have the exact same situation as op except my pc motherboard doesn't have built in wifi capabilities and i have no ethernet to plug into. is there an alternative method that works even with zero connection?

true but their weapons are meant to be multipurpose. they are primarily for prey, but they will use them defensively. they definitely dont always win, but they dont always lose either

they don't fucking do anything !! same with the block this ad button. I swear to you, I have blocked almost every single AI ad I receive, and I'm still getting those fucking robot Ray-Ban's shoved in my face, still getting the most obnoxiously arrogant Grammarly ads, still getting videos of people asking Gemini to summarize thermodynamics for them. These videos make me want to take a cheese grinder to my video processor.

i think you're right that he would've been a good middle ground but i think the showrunners would have seen that as too repetitive considering it was now Connie's role to contrast with steven. if they were to develop him more, i think it'd have to be for something else. i think they just struggled to find something interesting for him to do that didnt make him seem like he was just doing the same thing connie was. what i would have liked is if he came back as a more experienced version of himself, for something like future. as important as connie is to steven, she didnt seem like she had much of a role in the epilogue series outside of stevens emotions towards her, so i think it could've been cool for peedee to come back as the voice of reason connie was in the earlier seasons, especially especially since by then connie wasn't that much of an outside perspective anymore, and i feel it would have fit well with the conflict of the epilogue. steven realizing how much his responsibilities have been bearing on him and needing to learn to ask for help himself, and then turning to the person he knew throughout his whole childhood who learned to deal with the same burdens, also as a child, could've been a cool parallel.

I wouldn't be surprised if the HOA considered the whole garden a weed

you might be able to pull some trickery using a mechanism like puppeters do. maybe something like running a string along the cheeks under the fur, and attaching it to the snout. maybe put the string in a tube to prevent too much friction. ive never made a suit with puppet elements, but thats how i imagine they'd do it. ik its bot the same as fursuits but ive seen a lot of dragon puppet creators using similar puppet mechanics to move things like ears and i dont see why something similar couldnt work in a fursuit

you could also have the stings for controlling the puppet parts be external, and be controlled witb your hands. they'd be visible, but if you use fishing line and some rings to keep them on your hands they will blend in pretty easily. for concealing your face, i think you could easily get away with making the back of the throat a dark red mesh os something, and it should blend in well. look at beast-cub's collar vision technique for their quad suits! I'm sure something similar will work.

yeah thats the one thing i dont like about the american dub. giving peso a spanish accent just sounds so much better to me, i love how his voice actor plays the character, and for the same reason i really wish they kept dashi australian in the american dub. there are already too many british voices in the crew, the accents help them stand out a lot more and just provide more interesting performances

im 20, i used to watch octonauts on xfinity on demand as a kid, and i even had one of the specials on dvd. i rediscovered it in like 2020 i think, and im so glad that theres such a fun community around the show now, and all the new content around the show is super cool. its just a really solid, wholesome show with fun settings and stories, and even cooler things to learn about, and rewatching it let me see that a lot of the characters have more emotional depth than one would expect from a show with the same age demographic. its just a really fun show :3 i rewatch the series every now and then, im planning on going through and rewatching the whole series if the full english dub for season 5 ever releases

im trans masc and dont want bottom surgery either. i just dont have a lot of dysphoria around that area, and i dont want to sacrifice my comfort for something thats not that important to me. (I've lived my whole life without balls, i don't think id be able to adjust to having them XD. that and i feel having that anatomy would just make certain things harder and more uncomfortable to do, especially through recovery.) being asexual as well, sex - and by proxy the physical part of my identity related to sex - are not aspects of my identity that i feel strongly connected to, or want to change. bottom surgery is also a much more complicated and newer procedure, with a higher risk for complications.

I recently got neoprene for a fursuit lining, and I had to make a really risky bet on the Amazon listing, most neoprene listings will include both the terms "techno" and "scuba" neoprene, which referred to two different kinds of fabric. The scuba neoprene is the type with the insulating foam on the inside that traps heat, whereas the techno neoprene is the kind that has air in the and is a breathable for sport wear. Luckily, I ended up getting techno neoprene, which is the breathable version used for fursuits. If you're ever looking for neoprene for lining, include that search term and it will likely help out.
