Only $6,666 more? That's great! Oh, 6,666 times more. Wow, they should have put that in the title.

Shouldn't it have been a guy's ass?

And if not enough people use it that way, it remains wrong, which is what appears to be the point of the above comment

How had he managed, at his age, to have never been infected up until this point? Oh, yeah, herd immunity -- that thing he's now working hard to destroy

That's Polish, right?

I've been there, and it makes complete sense to me. That is, I have no idea where the Manimai Temple on the Doiwala-Dehradun highway is, but a DJ and flashing lights when it's time to sleep -- completely relate.

Trump has been successful as a politician only because he is so needy, so thirsty for affection that during his campaigns he contorted his views to whatever his crowds gave the most applause to. That's why he did so well -- he could read the room, and the room was the American public. But now he isn't doing big rallies, and his audience has shrunken down to his advisors, his patsies, and whatever comes filtered through Fox News. Of course he is losing his wider audience. Their hopes, goals, wants were never really his. He was just chasing the adoration. Now he's disconnected and being used by whatever right wing "thinker" gets his attention.

Well, that and the grift. There's always the grift.

A short excerpt:

“F‑‑‑ him. F‑‑‑ him. F‑‑‑ him and everybody around him,” Hunter Biden said during the interview released Monday, in response to an anecdote about Clooney’s political involvement. “I don’t have to be f‑‑‑ing nice. No. 1, I agree with Quentin Tarantino. … F‑‑‑ing George Clooney is not a f‑‑‑ing actor. He is a f‑‑‑ing, like … I don’t know what he is. He is a brand.”

He seems emotional, perhaps angry. Oh, well

How would it even be satiric? Sardonic, perhaps. Comedic, no.

*planetary system

The Solar System is an example of a planetary system. Our planetary system is named so because it is the system of its star, Sol. Other planetary systems are not "solar" systems.

I don't know, but don't share this to Marjorie Taylor Greene

 

Seems the folks at ULA have decided to be complete dicks

 

Through metabolic screening, we identified uridine as a potential regulator to rejuvenate aged HSPCs.

 

Here we examined whether IL-11, a pro-inflammatory cytokine of the IL-6 family, has a negative effect on age-associated disease and lifespan.

 

Researchers publishing in Aging have found a molecule linking exercise to the inhibition of cellular senescence, one of the hallmarks of aging.

 

The researchers investigated whether NAD precusors, including nicotinamide and NR, along with the well-known compound rapamycin could rescue mitophagy, and they found positive results for all of these compounds.

 

TAC promoted tissue rejuvenation, including new neuron formation, and alleviated multiple aging hallmarks in aged mice, revealing the regenerative potential of adult tissues through physiological TERT activation.

 

The engine uses a design called full-flow staged combustion, where both the engine’s fuel and oxidizer — liquified natural gas and liquid oxygen, respectively — go through separate preburners before going into the main combustion chamber.

 

The authors elaborate on the potential mechanisms underlying the connection between oral microbial dysbiosis and cognitive function impairment.

I use Jerboa in list view, which gives me a nice, compact presentation of a number of posts on my phone screen. This is great, except now the list is full of left-right scrolling text whenever a community name is too long to display in the allotted space. This is very distracting, and I would love to turn off this scrolling

I looked through the settings, but I don't see a way to turn this off, or a way to simply not display the community name at all (not my preference, but I'd take it over the scrolling)

Can anyone help? My post listings look like they are on a web page from 1998

Edit: Now I see that the scrolling is also applied to long user names as well, and is used in areas other than post listings. This seems to have just started with the latest release. I really hope this can be turned off in settings. It feels like geo-cities in here
