They did the math.
  • What I'm describing isn't actual vomiting either, but more like regurgitating. Rodents can do that, though horses can't (because they can't even belch, they've got a one way valve).

    Ruminants like sheep and giraffes also don't externally vomit but they do internally vomit which makes stuff change chambers in their stomach.

  • They did the math.
  • Maybe not projectile vomit but they absolutely could reverse peristalsis just like any vertebrate. Giraffes chew their cud while upright after all. Peristalsis is agnostic to how high it's pumping, since there is no functional loss in strength.

  • Part of this complete breakfast!
  • Latin is prelevant but many anatomy terms and conditions are Greek because a lot of the literature first describing conditions and early anatomy was Greek. Heme for blood, dermis for skin, cholecyst(bile bladder) for gallbladder, cyst for bladder ect. Anatomy itself is a word that comes from Greek.

  • They're feasible with a voter mandate. You get that mandate by building it in your platform and getting elected on it with sufficient margins. The Democratic party, however, is not a revolutionary party but a status quo party and refuses to go that route because they're afraid of losing. So they just lose by default.

  • One thing to keep in mind is if these chucklefucks torch the economy then the capital class will hang them out to dry. One big strike would end every single one of their ambitions. Arming yourselves won't do it, you gotta organize.

    You can't pay soldiers and police when you have no tax revenue.

  • TIL sailing ships commonly moved around without wind by warping

    Warping is throwing an anchor either manually for a small ship or by rowing the anchor out and dropping it farther away for a larger ship. Then the ship would reel it to change position. Good for maneuvering in harbor. Etymologically related to "throwing" and essentially threading a needle across the sea.

    Warp factor get you asses in the rowboat. Engage.

    Modi loses ground in parliament, but his Hindu nationalist policies are here to stay

    For the first time since Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party swept to power in 2014, the party did not secure a majority on its own in 2024 national election. But the prime minister’s coalition is still expected to run the country for another five years.

    Modi’s allies generally support pro-Hindu legislation, but making new policies could be complicated by coalition politics and a slimmer majority.

    Despite a setback, many of the Hindu nationalist policies he’s instituted over the last 10 years remain locked in place

    When TikTok mobilized its users to lobby Congress, it backfired spectacularly.

    How the House revived the TikTok ban bill before most of us noticed

    Interesting to note here: getting preteens to confusedly call Congress with threats of self harm and questions like "what is Congress" with a push notification is not the best plan

    Biden on hot mic: ‘Come-to-Jesus meeting’ with Netanyahu on the way

    President Biden told a Democratic lawmaker and members of his Cabinet after the State of the Union address that he told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that they will need to have a “come-to-Jesus meeting.”

    Biden’s comments, captured on a hot mic as he spoke with Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Colo.) on the floor of the House chamber, came after Bennet congratulated the commander in chief on his speech and pressed him to keep pressure on Netanyahu over increasing humanitarian issues in Gaza.
