Probably both? But it takes a toll every time the most recent one was just over 4.8 kg and she gave birth to him vaginally in her early 40’s with only a small superficial tear. Not sure how she pulled it off but I was very impressed. When I told my colleagues how much he weighed all the men congratulated me and looked excited and all the women visibly winced and asked if she was ok.
Yeah, I don’t really eat steak. Or any meat in slab form actually.
And then of course there’s the actual main event. Not exactly a risk free endeavour even today. During one of the births, my partner started soaking the bedsheets in blood when the anaesthetist nicked her spinal artery with the epidural needle. She said it felt like her lower half had been crushed under a falling building. She was not right after that. Also all of them were over 4.3kg(9.5lbs). I’m really thankful I didn’t have to do that
I get that. But, in my case i already have enough children. If its any consolation, apart from the 2nd trimester it’s supposed to be absolutely miserable. The first trimester is vomiting your guts out whenever you smell or taste anything that isn’t clean air or water. Second trimester is all sunshine and rainbows. Third is hip dysplasia, sacral nerve pain and mobility issues.
I have one that I only use to make cornbread. Cornbread doesn’t make it dirty and cast iron is the only thing that will give you a proper crust on the cornbread.
Thankfully I look more like my paternal grandmother and aunt. Good genes there.
Chlorophorm isn’t fast acting enough to work like that. You’re going to want some sevoflurane for that rapid induction anaesthesia.
That wasn’t you? Maybe I’m just daydreaming.
Hey! You never mentioned anything about telepathically having me eat your ass! False advertising!
I just sent that to everyone I know without explanation.
They did rebrand him as “sooty Pete”, a white dude with soot on his face (black patches instead of full blackface). At least a lot of people do that. But obviously you still get a lot of people clinging doggedly to their racism tradition.
I have Dutch friends who were legitimately terrified that Zwarte Piet would kidnap them and take them to Spain.
I had to look for a bit but I worked out what you meant. It’s been added to my reading list.
Damn! I thought I had to choose. Thanks for pointing this out.
Now about the tentacles?
Edit: just looked at pictures. I’d get damn good at tucking lol
Why not both, baby?
Both sets of genitalia for the purposes of versatility, 6-8 tits like a cat, retractable claws, the ability to see in Infrared and UV, colour changing skin like a cuttlefish, a longer and more agile tongue, and at least 4 tentacles for… Reasons…
The maps wrong. In northern Norway (marked in lavender) the terms Bibliotek and Girjerádju are both used depending on whether you’re speaking Norwegian or one of the Sami languages. Despite being indigenous to the region Sami is spoken by a minority and the map should be striped red and lavender. Or if you’re going by indigenous languages then you need to extend the lavender portion down through northern Sweden to Luleå and in Norway down to Trondheim.
I remain tempted but stoic
As a neuroscience graduate, I can tell you that the brain takes some time to rewire according to the anatomical changes. Broadly speaking it happens by two mechanisms long term potentiation (LTP) and long term depression (LTD) which cause synapses to strengthen/weaken respectively. LTP is simply if a synapse is used it gets stronger. No problem there, because most of the synapses you need are already strong. LTD is more tricky because you need activation that is weak in comparison to useful activation over time. So you need to drown out those connections over time.
If I might be so crude, you could try touching yourself in front of the mirror. Neural impulses from your eyes and hands will likely speed up the process, and help psychologically.
Oh I’m not vegetarian I just don’t like steak. I only eat beef or pork when it’s cooked into something like a curry or stew because it has an unpleasant texture and no real flavour of it’s own. But yeah breads are good done in cast iron.
