This is a little bit unfair to paleoartists. A lot of the drawings people are most familiar with came from a time when there was less evidence for feathers. They absolutely update drawings as more fossils are found that change the picture, but we don’t always go and look at the newest art. Just how much feather cover specific dinosaurs would have had is still a bit unknown but it’s unlikely they would have had anywhere near as much feather cover as modern birds.

I can remember not getting that one as a kid.

Which means he has freak genetics. But I guess not the kind of freak genetics that make him superpowered. (There is a so-called “x-gene” for actual mutants in MU)

In the comics it’s supposed to be all muscle, but I don’t think he is considered to have any super powers.

Huh I can’t find a reference so perhaps what I read was a “in taste tests most people prefer” rather than being based on sales volume. I remember it mostly because it seemed like an odd fact to me.

Er, I seem to recall reading that calrose rice (as pictured in the preview) is the most popular variety in Japan, and the “cal” is California. Is this just about a subset of people who prefer domestically grown varieties?

There’s a lot of things it could be, some of which are eyebrow raising. But as you said, usually when someone is carrying that much cash, there’s a reason.

Yeah, definitely. Could be something illegal. Could just be something she doesn’t want showing up on shared credit card receipts.

Maybe just because Trump’s inner circle is making enough money right now that that’s just walking around money to her.

Well that and they view race as so fundamental to someone’s identity that if they’re portrayed with another skin color it fundamentally changes the character.

Oh boy I didn’t need sleep tonight.

He was such a great villain. That scene with the shoe gave me nightmares.

For some reason I have strong memories of my childhood dentist having this song on. They almost always had a “soft rock” station on, which to young me was very awful.

In terms of execution methods. Not debating the morality of execution in itself.

Really nothing inhumane about firing squad.

This is very routine. Supreme Court is highest level of appeal if other appeals fail. Does not mean that it will be taken up. Vast majority are not.

Er, the expression is “look what the cat dragged in,” which I suppose still isn’t very rat friendly.

But you can’t just plug a generic USB to HDMI adapter in. This is what I meant by “direct”. And Nintendo has deliberately made this not work on the lite.

The switch has never supported direct video out on its USB port, has it? Especially not on the lite where it’d be helpful.

I have an orange cat but I usually think of him as more of a chicken nugget than a shrimp.
