And quantifying it.

Interesting. I never noticed a difference. Thanks for the explanation.

"Canadian bacon" is just ham, but we only call it that when it's on a pizza. I have no idea why it's called that. I prefer to just call it "ham", but I have had pretty mixed results when trying to order "ham" on a pizza.

My kid was diagnosed as autistic at 15 because their therapist suggested getting them evaluated. They asked me recently why we didn't get them evaluated sooner.

After reading up about autism and talking to the therapist and reading the evaluation writeup, I realized that my husband, our other kid, my dad, and I are all definitely autistic, as is my step-father-in-law. A lot of our friends are diagnosed with some variety of neurodivergence (autism, ADHD, severe OCD), and probably some of the undiagnosed ones are also neurodivergent.

I told this to my kid and ended with, "So you seemed normal to us."

Obviously I don't have any insight in your case, but my guess is that a lot of parents don't consider that their kid might be autistic because they don't realize that there's anything unusual.

I feel out of the loop here. Why would you not share a meme just because negativenull made it? Is there some etiquette in this community that I've missed, or was someone stealing a bunch of negativenull's content or something?

Those covers are great.

In the Silver Age, Superman's hair and fingernails didn't grow. (I'm not sure whether it was addressed in the Golden Age.) This implies that Superman has the exact same haircut that Jor-El and Lara gave him as a baby, which was also never addressed, as far as I know.

In Action Comics #300 from 1963, Superman ends up in the far future, when the sun has turned red, so he loses his powers. Losing his powers makes his hair and fingernails grow. As he figures out how to get back to his own time, he makes a point to cut his hair and fingernails before his powers come back, since otherwise, there would be no way to cut them afterward.

Later renditions are a completely different story, of course. Mostly, I've seen him use heat vision to cut his hair, with an occasional kryptonite-laced razor or scissors. I don't remember any version showing him cut his nails, other than Action #300.

It would be "You all would not have" because "You all did not have agreed with me" doesn't make sense.

Or even asymptotic.

That could be a ladder to climb up to the top bunk.

Taking a drug that doesn't work is not necessarily the same as taking a placebo. I have suffered a lot from drug side effects, and some have hurt me long-term, years after I stopped taking the medicine. I am incredibly wary of taking anything new, even before all the horrors of 2025. With even worse approval processes, I expect that a lot of harmful and potentially debilitating or deadly stuff is going to end up on pharmacy shelves soon.

I feel like I'm missing a reference here, but are you ok?
