Bookmarked - thanks ERV!

What's with long sleeved lab coats? Are they still a thing? Doctors don't use them because they can spread contamination. Our labs all have either long-sleeved, front opening, or long-sleeved back opening coats - but they all have close-fitting, elasticated cuffs. But then we're a general biology/m...

Vikings are over done. Just to clue people in I am getting back involved with the SCA and I am trying to pick an interesting personal. I am thinking early Middle Ages Saxon. I know a little bit and knowing the impressive knowledge people have here (no gay bro) I am hoping for some help (plus it's a...

My jackpot was a collection thrown out for the paper round. There I was gaily skipping along the road at 9 or 10 years old, curiously attracted by the shiny bundle. I snuck em home and hid them (about 5 mags), mostly Penthouse, nothing too hardcore, but all doing strange things to me. In particular...

Unless I am missing something, Puppy info is harder to find and is less centralized ...

Ive got: Laden dox of Mykeru's ex. Dec 21 2012 Threatening of Griffiths. June 23 or so 2012 But no ERV's workplace threat emails. Ill add that and Hitch. What else? Parsehold dates? PZ trolled by his own comments dates? September 2014 - you have an entry " ... Allison named as Shermer's" - needs "a...

My condolences, Gumby.

From 7:30 on the ABC tonight: "We should challenge Islamic State in the way we do racism, fascism: Haras Rafiq" He is, apparently "Managing Director of counter-extremism organisation Quilliam Foundation" (sic). I wasn't really paying attention, but one thing stood out - had to go looking on the ABC ...

Serious question: what do you think of the recent claim that evidence of a link between colony collapse (i.e., bees dying) and nicotine-based pesticides has actually been suppressed in true conspiracy-theory fashion? I'd heard vaguely that colony collapse was to do with pesticides but I haven't hea...

Is it wrong to imagine this animated, in the style of Terry Gilliam?

Phew. I can see the dots but can't make out anything meaningful in it.

I think I see '30' but common pit expectation-wise, it's probably a penis.

Or goatse...

It was a good week-end. We made lots of progress on the new album's recording (mostly sound-wise and some choirs recording. Mountain settings make for a very nice natural feel to the sound) and I didn't break any limb. I got quite a big sunburn, but all things considered I'll still call this sessio...

I'm prett sure Loperamide is actually an opioid. I remember reading something about it not crossing the blood brain barrier, but working on receptors in the digestive tract. The blood/brain thing is why I could take it for the diahorreah caused by ending my relationship with sweet lady H. Of course...

Posting this in the main thread since I want it to get maximum eyes. Thought re doxxing. [Snip] I'd appreciate comments and thoughts on this from regulars who post in good faith. Any holier-than-thou cunts can fuck off. Trying to parse every edge case is a worthless exercise, and I'm going to ignor...

Oh please tell me its you. PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anteater guy thinks I'm NoR :bjarte: Hey, you can't be NoR, you passed the test. We have to be careful here; we can't just let anyone join; think of the reputational damage. However, what about carbonated water. Is that organic? :snoot...

Thanks Feathers, and everyone else, for the welcome. Brief intro - I'm one of the (many) who used to read Pharyngula for the science, increasingly went WTF at the Horde, wondered what the other side of the story was regarding Elevatorgate, and ended up lurking here til very recently. snip...

And that's why I still have some mixed feelings about this. I'd like to say that the new wave science fiction movement was a good thing and somehow different from what has happened in recent years, but I haven't been paying enough attention to SF of the past decade to do so or say why. But certainl...
