Yeah, she's one of 4 artists to my knowledge that have had a number 1 hit in 5 different decades (her, Madonna, Michael Jackson, and Barbara Streisand). She's a multi-generational star

Indiana Democrat Jaime West goes viral for telling voters she would 'fire all Republicans' if elected in train-wreck interview
The Republican president called for the execution of Democrats as did an Arizona senator. So in comparison losing your job is hardly a big deal

[please list what they are about topicwise] Do you have a favored podcast you like to listen to while cleaning or cooking?
I'm fully in the Nick Weiger podcast universe so I listen Doughboys and Get Played plus their weekly bonus shows. I find I don't usually go through more than 4 podcasts in a week but if I do then The Film Reroll will usually hold me over until new episodes come out

I'll be damned if this river flows unopposed
Science actually figured this one out. Beavers raised in captivity when exposed to a speaker playing river noises will cover it up with as much stuff as possible to hide the noise. So it's the noise they have an issue with

That and NASA is a very safety conscious organization. So they want to overestimate everything and include way more than they need. So when she said a couple per day you can round that to 5 for safety, then considering it's a 6 day mission they want to include triple the amount of needed supplies which means 18 days worth. 18*5=90 which is pretty close to 100 so let's round up again. Plus tampons are a useful first aid tool, especially in zero gravity. You shove some into an open wound and it'll prevent blood from spilling all over the very sensitive equipment. Does a woman need 100 tampons for 6 days? Of course not, but she wasn't going to spend a week in the mountains, she was going to space, so the safety precautions were much more stringent

What's going on over at dwarf fortress?
Dwarf Fortress bug reports are incredible. Since this is lemmy I'm sure people have heard of the alcoholic cats but it's a fun reread
I just can’t beat the drunken cat bug... That was the one where the cats were showing up dead all over the tavern floor, and it turned out they were ingesting spilled alcohol when they cleaned their paws.
I think that bug explains very well just how deeply complex Dwarf Fortress really is. Drinks can be spilled. Some drinks have alcohol. If cats step in something it sticks to their paws. Cats clean their paws, causing them to ingest what's on them. Enough alcohol will kill a cat. Put together: dead drunken cats.
I vaguely remember that part of the problem was the game didn't differentiate between licking a small amount of ale and drinking a whole glass. So the cats were basically chugging a beer each time they cleaned their paws

1977 weight loss advice
1 bottle of white ~ 600 calories
3 hard boiled eggs - 225 calories
5 oz steak ~ 325 calories
For a total of 1150 calories. You'll need to be pretty active for a 5 lbs loss but you'd definitely lose some weight on this diet. Now I do not envy the heinous shits a diet of pure protein, coffee, and white wine will give you

Children literally have not had the experience to recognize these situations, their brains aren't fully developed, and aren't fully in charge of their own lives. I agree that if you're doing this often then you may want to have a conversation about how it keeps happening, but it's much better for a kid to feel like they have a safety net. Otherwise they may stick in the shady situation and end up in more trouble

To avoid attacks from the proletariat
I saw this movie and I don't think she was meant to be poor, she was supposed to be a member of the working class compared to everyone else wasn't working class. She's a high end escort on an island retreat with the most famous chef in the world, I somehow don't think she charges $40 for some dome. The head chef is also clearly not a poor person, but is still working class. That distinction was kind of the entire point of the movie
