So delightful that we have more people propping up the pseudo archeology “it was used for knitting! Despite knitting being not around until the Middle Ages, and spool knitting not being around until later!”

It’s a terrible French/spool knitter. The fact that someone made something on it does not mean that it was made for knitting, because you can do that with basically any set of pegs you want.

Knitting is medieval, and not attested to until 11th century CE Egypt.

As spool knitters go, the dodecahedron are terrible for that purpose. The extra faces are useless. This idea has been explored and rejected, because it does not match Roman textile practices.

Why is this poorly researched article upvoted?

Many scars have been founded around the knobs consistent with the process of knitting.

This is flatly incorrect.

This is a Honda Civic, which is a fucking lemon which didn’t even have working AC when I bought it new.

They were trying to interfere with Capital Pride, but gave up after pushback.

Regulatory boards can exist but only choose to meet a few times a year, refuse to investigate anything that happens to a certain class of people, and also just not want to do their jobs because social services and regulatory agencies are like weekend clubs here.

Things are not working to the point I am trying to whistleblow a decades long “industrially scamming the free school lunch funds” and no one gives a shit. No one gives a shit about anything, Jesus Christ it’s Oklahoma. There are no consequences for anything here.

Not in the south.

Yeah! It’s why a lot of the times when I think about leaving the house, I just don’t! The stochastic terrorism has worked!

Don’t forget, there is basically no oversight on therapists, so if your therapist tells you you should quit your job to “submit” to your husband, then disappears after a week or so of torture, meaning that you navigate a divorce with zero access to domestic violence supports, your life is over and there is no consequences!

That’s what they do. Our media absolutely covers for hate crimes right now.

I sent an email to their complaint department about the headline. Not likely to do anything, but I’ll still be annoying.

Amway and Herbalife should have been shut down decades ago. But the DeVos family made a lot of money on Amway.

The SEC should have intervened on crypto and NFTs, but again, it’s qui bono. Things that help rich people grift are always allowed.

Allzzz well that endzzz well

Nah - CD’s are great.

Everyone should be burning Parenti lectures and leaving them in public spaces. Very fun past time.

Every time I make soap, I’m really tempted to take the lye and do the Fight Club thing to my hand. (Inner edgy fourteen year old never grew up)

Shit gets hot fast.

Yeah - my understanding was that there was a carve out explicitly for trans men with that UK ruling, which effectively meant its illegal for trans men to piss in either bathroom? We aren’t men, but we also can’t use the women’s.

My state doesn’t have bathroom laws yet - except for in schools (and my dumbass thought - science teacher shortage! if I’m needed and doing something good I get to be a human being right?)

Before we get started - really quick, can you summarize your experience in biology? Did you graduate high school? Do you have some form of education/undergraduate degree in a field adjacent to biology? I’d appreciate the clarification - I can explain this at multiple levels and would be happy to tailor make an explanation for whatever level of academic achievement you have accomplished.

Swyer means an XY female, as you are agreeing to now.

What is your definition for female?

So, you are arguing that SRY inactivation does not occur?

What kind of coke do you want?

What specific element is pseudoscience?

The closer the music is to this, the more likely you are to find something that goodwill would have auctioned off for $300+ going at like $5. Some Alpha MTG booster pack, a forgotten Nirvana cassette demo, all of these things lay buried in the bottom floor of some church basement. The place will only accept cash though.
