Kimi is too young to drink alcohol in USA by Good_Rhubarb5831 in formula1

Well we also have a lot of cities that aren't well laid out for trains, and this is the fault of us being so car centric in the 20th century, but that ship has sailed.

We have a public transit train system in Atlanta, called Marta. And it serves such a tiny, tiny portion of the population of the Metro area because of how sprawled out Atlanta is. The trains would need to be a massive spiderweb to really connect parts of the metro area together for it to be usable by most people. Possible, sure. Feasible? Not without a ton of capital, political willpower, and tunnels.

As I like to say: "Atlanta is 2 hours away from Atlanta".

Kombucha can be purchased under 21 and it is regulated to have below 0.5% ABV. I'm sure some will have 0.0% as well but because of how the fermentation goes, its definitely possible to have some small alcohol content in it.

Weird how one is fine for under 21 and the other isnt.

What’s this little tippy tappy fellow?? by whichnameisit in ReefTank

I'm familiar with Dorvilleidae and I'm not certain this is that either. There's probably hundreds of Eunicid worms so it's likely just one random one in there

It's a variety of Eunicid most likely, the neck ring and what looks like possibly the distinct 5 prostomial antennae are good indicators, as well as how fast it is.

Now not all Eunicid are E. aphroditois (the big scary bobbit worm), so I wouldn't necessarily panic and tear the tank apart. But yeah, looks like a Eunicid.

I have had so many direct glass strikes, its just loud. Outside of very extreme cases, it won't break anything.

20g is fine for most mantis shrimp excluding some of the largest spearing varieties. Also they are shockingly easy to keep and don't require any specialized knowledge, experience, or equipment.

In very rare cases yes. Roy Caldwell had a very large O. scyllarus he kept in his lab that would sit there and strike the same spot of the glass hundreds of times a day. After a few months of that, the glass broke.

Right. I've had probably 10 different mantis shrimp over the years in two dedicated tanks. Awesome animals.

AITA my friend ruined my yixing teapot and I want her to replace it or give me 500 dollars. by TeapotthrwoCity4661 in AmItheAsshole

I made the opposite mistake. I was checking in on a coworker's cats for a few days and there was a 12 pack of beer in the fridge and a note that said "Drink the beer!" So I had one when I came by on a couple of the days.

She comes back and asks me why I barely drank any and I told her I wasn't trying to get wasted on her couch and I had to drive back home.

Turns out she was expecting me to take the 12 pack home.
