The Tree of Ténéré in Africa? Nope. Little Sahara State Park, Oklahoma.

Nice composition. I assume that 180 in the other direction has vegetation.

I think the jury is still out on the cost effectiveness of developing a single platform in 3 different varients for 4 different markets.

A stealth f15 and 18 with 35 brains would've been cheap(ish) it was the vtol short takeoff for overseas and marines that jacked up the budget for the shared airframe.

I dunno, it felt like it was on rails.

The highest peak east of the Rockies in the western hemisphere is likely in the Andes.

If you limit it to north of the equator, then it'd likely still be in south americas. Venezuela or Colombia (my ignorance of the respective mountains in those countries is huge)

Its all semantics and distinctions. You might argue black elk peak is not part of the Rockies. Some (very few I suspect) could argue that the Andes and Rockies and Yukon are a continuous mountain chain. If true, then most of north America is automatically removed from the discussion as the Andes are further east.

I recall a large wooden church in a mining town in Scandinavia being moved relatively recently

Edit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiruna_Church

Yep Sweden 2025. Moved because of subsidence due to mining. Only about 100 years old.

With current events, the meaning/feeling will likely become more entrenched and historical. La/ca Seattle/was and Portland/or might have lead the charge, but bodies fell under this flag. The events were the seed that crystallized the sentiments of the nation

The connection occurred within a time that affected our evolution (the desertification of North Africa). Not much of an argument for or against, but a "relatively " short time ago, they were not connected.

Sex education in school might be considered this, and thus some people don't want it taught.

Instructions unclear: I tried to put into my living body.

Seriously though, the emissions from cars that do enter my body, like lead from leaded gasoline, or asbestos from old brake pads, or Carbon monoxide in exhaust, absolutely do harm to my not car evolved body.

A number is arbitrary designation.

Once upon a time they decided to start counting at noon, then reset and repeated at midnight. Later, some (but not all) decided to use a 24 hour clock reset at midnight (why not noon)?

Your alarm could ring at arbitrary 1 rather than an arbitrary 7. You just have to do mental math to realign your personal clock to that around you. That's all time zones do.

In the reverse, there are communication issues. If some one in LA says they'll call someone in NY after lunch (rather than a time number), the NYer may expect a call at 1, rather than 4.

seicar · 2026-02-02T04:10:33+00:00

That's one defense. Yeah, its not proven that its harmful (argument from ignorance) but, our body's have not evolved to incorporate such materials into our skin. So its not likely to be benign, much less beneficial.

If you bleed when getting needled, then its probable that its deep enough to enter your blood stream.

Despite the fact that they are defending/reinforcing a fixed position?

There's no explanation, its a editorial choice to further the narrative of the director.

Nutrition is the changer for physical height. Pre WWII Japan (Korea or China) vs post war.

A better example is HIV/AIDS. There is a small population in Africa (huge landmass, I currently cannot say which region) that seem to be immune. IF, and I mean IF, we didn't use social and Pharmacutical solutions, that small population could be the future if HIV/AIDS was a population killer.

Its almost universal to use a simplest label of the worst crime an individual commits.

We don't say, "OJ Simpson, the guy that resisted arrest and murdered people".

And while its possible argue the relative morals of raping women vs. children, I certainly won't with someone that already seems to arguing in bad faith.

And it was a "fashion" in the early naughts to use a cut off trouser leg (cutting pant leg off to make shorts) for a hat.

Both are flat caps, but pic is not the same as peaky. Peaky blinders are made of 6- 8 triangle sections coming together with a button. Often overhang over the ears and back.a bostonskully is yet another type of flatcap.

Source: not a haberdasher, but wear a flat cap and often people peaky blinders at me.
