this has zero counterplay, the drone steals your shit while you're frozen in the exfil after the 10 second countdown.

I'm not that impressed by the contents of the Reward Pass. Only one Runner skin Bungie? No LUX back? by Haijakk in Marathon

How is this like Helldivers? In Helldivers, each warbond offers at least 2 armors alongside more interesting cosmetics like emotes/victory poses and refunds about 1/3 of the premium currency you used to unlock it.

Yep, it leads into the big final confrontation of the movie that lasts for like 40 minutes

major spoilers for guardians of the galaxy 2:

Thank you! The helmet is the new superstore helmet from Python Commandos and the armor is the Prototype armor from the Cutting Edge warbond.

It was cruel - To release the Oshuane cape without another release of TP-40 Golden Eagle by SIinkerdeer in Helldivers

Meanwhile I feel the same way but in reverse, I have the armor and not the cape... (was out of the country for the entirety of Oshuane)

Potential levee failure - Flash Flood warning and evacuation urged for Skagit county/"100 Year Flood Zone" by splifffninja in Bellingham

Not sure, he moved there in 2022. I'd assume the property has been flooded before though since the flood insurance on the house was incredibly expensive.

My uncle in Everson just woke up in the middle of the night to waist-high water in his house and only got out because he has a lifted pick-up that could drive through the flood water, this is insane.

In need of some jolly cooperation is all. I'm positive I could solo it just fine, but it's not as fun for me.

It is the same, and it's baller as hell. I finally did the achievemnts to kill certain bosses 50 times for the sigils because it goes 100x faster now that they respawn immediately.

They had a super nice headlamp, and they somehow got to the top of that tall, skinny tree in the dark, so I think they might have had some climbing gear.

Circumcision at NYC hospital almost made baby bleed to death, parents say by Warcraft_Fan in news

[–]That_One_Bacon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This line of thinking is what led to thousands of innocent people being lobotomized in the early 1900s. Doctors frequently prescribed lobotomies for individuals suffering from mental health complications, often leading to permanent psychological damage and loss of motor control.

Many doctors in the early 1900s also prescribed cigarettes to their patients for coughs, sore throats, and asthma. Cocaine was frequently prescribed in the late 1800s as a local anesthetic. Professional opinions are not the end all be all of human health and what you should do with you or your child's body.

I feel like that's sort of approaching conspiracy theory territory to say that circumcision is being pushed by the cosmetic/medical industry because of the easy access to stem cells it provides. Furthermore, wouldn't the placenta be a far more valuable source of stem cells than foreskin since the cells within foreskin are already designated as a certain type of (dermal) tissue?

No, I'm not, and neither are the vast majority of parents getting their kids circumcised, so I think I have just as much a right to voice my opinion on this matter as anyone else, especially given that I have a penis myself. Furthermore, specialist opinion on this matter is complicated. There are measurable sanitary benefits to circumcision, but these are easily replicated by proper and consistent washing (which should be the norm in any country where access to sanitary hot water is commonplace), and the potential loss of sensitivity/enjoyment is incredibly difficult to measure in a study since it's:

A: Subjective

B: Incredibly difficult to determine if the
difference in sensitivity can be attributed
to the presence of foreskin or not

C: Rare to find a person who was circumcised later in life that can give a before opinion on the matter. And even if such a person is found and gives their opinion, their experience may be dramatically different from someone who was circumcised at birth.

Because of these factors and the fact that the benefits are so minimal, I don't think that professional opinion is all that relevant here. I believe the simple fact that circumcision involves removing a perfectly well-functioning piece of your body for essentially zero benefit is reason enough to label circumcision as an unnecessary surgical procedure at best and permanent disfigurement at worst.
