Not true. Pet cats are about a third of the problem, according to a 2013 nature paper. Feral populations vary a lot by location - some places have almost no ferals but lots of pet cats.
Tl;dr: A new filing in a lawsuit brought by the families of 9/11 victims against the government of Saudi Arabia alleges that al-Qaeda had significant, indeed decisive, state support for its attacks. Officials of the Saudi government, the plaintiffs’ attorneys contend, formed and operated a network inside the United States that provided crucial assistance to the first cohort of 9/11 hijackers to enter the country.
Sounds like you’re a regular person with thoughts and preferences for how your body looks, like all people. Don’t think it’s about being trans, sorry to disappoint. Just my 2 cents though.
Dolphin died March 2022, then the publisher received the manuscript in June 2023. Then review took until 10 April 2024.
More generally, they weren’t doing this in response to the recent outbreak, it was sort of a coincidence that the disease gained media attention at the same time of this paper’s publication. Academic researchers are expected to publish around 2 papers a year, and each paper tends to take a couple years.

So I found a griddle that was in pretty bad shape seasoning wise so I stripped it and noticed a small shiny area which worried me about lead. I ordered some lead tests that stated they were for metal (no specifics) and after doing the tests it came back positive. But this got me wondering if iron reacts with sodium rhodizonate,...
Were they ever made with lead? Sounds like a bad choice for something that goes in an oven, since lead has such a low melting point. Not that I know anything, just pontificating.
For the record, people claim that cat purring cures things (heals bones, for example). This is not true. There is a published academic paper claiming it, I read it, tldr it’s total garbage.
Yeah, I had heard that too and eventually looked up the research paper and it’s bs, lil. It’s pretty much an academic paper just saying maybe they do and someone should look into it… No actual results. Not the paper fault - media spinned it.
I want to know what was running through the mind of the first guy who thought up mummies. Some guy just came along and said "You know what we need? Dead bodies to last longer! C’mon, who’s with me?”...
Imagine a sealed container filled with any amount of liquid water at any constant temperature and pressure where water can be liquid. Is the air in the container necessarily at 100% relative humidity?
