More reasons: Sand and solar panels don’t mix. Any build up on the panels has to be cleaned, and blown sand will etch the glass quikly and lower power output considerably. Additionally, you don’t want to stop sand blowing around. Those air and dust currents are importand to the world. You can’t have a rainforest in Brazil without sand blown in from the Sahara, for example.

Closest I could find is life.fish.vent in New Jersey

Paraffin is what happens when the parakeet and puffin get freaky with it. And of course “getting freaky with it” involves decomposing anaerobically for millions of years.

Is this from a list of Eleanor Shellstrop’s point calculations?

I’ve been using Pinchflat for a while. Its working but a bit rough.

I guess so.

In 2024/5 media companies are too terrified of anything that even appears to be new for “House MD” to get the green light. To get it made now it would have to full embrace its remakeness and it would be Dr Holmes MD and his assistant Dr Watson.

Just drizzle on some pepto. The real pink sauce.

My son died when someone joked about a laser accident!

It was right there in the title and I still made it to the 4th panel before I realized.

Hey Crabman.

That’s true for dogs, less so for cats. It’s also immaterial since we’re talking about present attitudes toward pets.

I like that, from the look of it, someone bought a cheap novelty sign from Hot Topic or Spencer’s, then promptly scanned it and set it loose.

Human/animal bonding is aided because their faces retain neotenic features that remind us of babies. So many are inclined to relate to them like children.

From that article:

Accumulating behavioral and neurophysiological studies support the idea of infantile (cute) faces as highly biologically relevant stimuli rapidly and unconsciously capturing attention and eliciting positive/affectionate behaviors, including willingness to care. It has been hypothesized that the presence of infantile physical and behavioral features in companion (or pet) animals (i.e., dogs and cats) might form the basis of our attraction to these species.

It has been hypothesized that both behavioral and physical infantile features present in companion animals might form the basis of our attraction to these animals and may bear some part of the responsibility for our motivational drive to pet-keeping and pet-caretaking (Archer, 1997).

I host a copy of redlib and then use the Privacy Redirect extension to make all reddit links send me there.
