One of their living distant relatives, the velvet worm, is readily eaten by invasive hedgehogs and rats. Hedgehogs are insectivores and rats will eat just about anything but the article I read mentioned they shoot “bitter, sticky slime” so yeah that probably leaves a taste. I would expect anomalocaris would have similar chemical defenses to velvet worms so expect an unfamiliar astringent or ammonaical flavor if you do someday get the chance.


Really? I might have to boot up Steam and try it again. Nice, thanks! You use Wine or something to run it?


I think it’s more misogynist to assume the best of Lewinsky, like a woman can’t be a powerful foreign agent that character assassinates a sitting president? Like, especially with what we’re seeing of the Epstein disclosures, why is Lewinsky the only one of all the women that Bill apparently took advantage of that was able to have any effect on his career?


I too am upset Rust dropped Linux support a few years ago and never developed the Vulkan graphics engine they had promised. I understand the anticheat issues but still, it’s a fun game. Figure it out, Facepunch.
I’m pretty sure that 12 year old temple prostitute was preganant when Joseph won her by raffle.


Lewinsky almost cost him reelection, and arguably derailed the Democratic agenda that Clinton was selected by the American people to enact in his second term. Clinton could have cost her her career at most. From a national security perspective Lewinsky wielded and used power that changed the course of history in a way that few people have.
The national conversation in the early 90s about sexual harassment including the Clarence Thomas scandal with his assistant (forgot her name) was one of how sex could compromise powerful leaders (men generally) and it’s worth considering whether Lewinsky was acting as an insider agent to compromise Clinton, perhaps as part of a nation state level attack on the integrity of of the office rather than it all simply being a man using the clout of his office unethically to have sex.
We don’t know what is in Lewinsky’s CIA file and it’s entirely possible she was a Russian or other agent acting intentionally to cause chaos. Her family comes from a former Warsaw Pact country and she immediately fled the country to Canada to be on the Tom Green show after the scandal so it’s plausible. We really don’t know but the power imbalance may have been intentionally reversed in some ways. The Epstein files show Clinton to be easily compromised by young women so it would be an obvious avenue of attack by an adversary, and the scandal continues to have an effect on how we talk about power and sex to this day.
See my other reply below, there are 2 different colors listed as acceptable for flag blue and maybe the lighter, more saturated one has become more common. Also flag material would affect the way the colors show up. Film vs digital photography is obviously playing a role in the images though, agreed.
I’ll admit I might be experiencing something like the Mandela effect here but further down in the wikipedia page under Designs, Colors it lists “Old Glory Blue” as either Pantone color [https://www.google.com/search?q=PMS+282C](PMS 282C) or [https://www.google.com/search?q=PMS+281C](PMS 281C), and perhaps the latter has been adopted more in the past few decades. The material the flags are made of could also have an effect on how the color is perceived.
I skimmed through that and didnt see any specifics about the particular shades of blue and red that must be used.
Wikipedia states: “The flag colors are not standardized by law, and there are no legally specified shades of red, white, and blue” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_the_United_States
So it is not inconceivable that around the W Bush era, new suppliers of flags adopted differently dyed fabrics for production. I concede that this change could have happened earlier, during the Clinton era or even partially during HW Bush. But the current blue is visibly more cyan and lighter, and the red is more saturated and true red rather than the slightly orange hue that I remember seeing all the time during the Reagan era, and on historical flags.
Look at the colors on that old US flag, we never should have switched dyes. That dark slate blue and the almost vermillion red. Those cheapo colors that came in under W Bush never sat right with me.
