I like this! Explains their relationship perfectly! ^_^
McKAY: OK. We think we’ve found a way to uncouple the nanite cells from Elizabeth’s cells. We create a distraction. What were the nanites originally designed to do? DEX: Fight the Wraith. McKAY: Exactly. So that’s what we’ll get them to do now. We think by implanting a small amount of Wraith tissue into Doctor Weir’s body… the nanite cells will essentially attack it. They have to - it’s what they are programmed to do, which will draw them away from Elizabeth’s cells, effectively unbinding them….that’s all we need; momentary distraction to draw them away from her so we can zap ‘em with the E.M. pulse.

In contrast, all my husband and I had to do was sign a form. Our competence to choose the outcome of our embryo was never questioned. There were no mandatory lectures on gestation, no requirement that I be explicitly told that personhood begins at conception or that I view a picture of a day-five embryo. There was no compulsory waiting period for me to reconsider my decision. In fact, no state imposes these restrictions — so common for abortion patients — on patients with frozen embryos. With rare exceptions, the government doesn’t interfere with an IVF patient’s choices except to resolve disagreements between couples. The disparity between how the law treats abortion patients and IVF patients reveals an ugly truth about abortion restrictions: that they are often less about protecting life than about controlling women’s bodies. Both IVF and abortion involve the destruction of fertilized eggs that could potentially develop into people. But only abortion concerns women who have had sex that they don’t want to lead to childbirth. Abortion restrictions use unwanted pregnancy as a punishment for “irresponsible sex” and remind women of the consequences of being unchaste: If you didn’t want to endure a mandatory vaginal ultrasound , you shouldn’t have had sex in the first place .
Fertility clinics destroy embryos all the time. Why aren’t conservatives after them?

I found this very interesting.
From advanced wing designs, through the hypersonic frontier, and onward into the era of composite structures, electronic flight controls, and energy efficient flight, our engineers and researchers have led the way in virtually every aeronautic development. And since 2011, aeronautical innovators from around the country have been working on our Unmanned Aircraft Systems integration in the National Airspace System, or UAS in the NAS, project.
This project was a new type of undertaking that worked to identify, develop, and test the technologies and procedures that will make it possible for unmanned aircraft systems to have routine access to airspace occupied by human piloted aircraft. Since the start, the goal of this unified team was to provide vital research findings through simulations and flight tests to support the development and validation of detect and avoid and command and control technologies necessary for integrating UAS into the NAS.
That interest moved into full-scale testing and evaluation to determine how to best integrate unmanned vehicles into the national airspace and how to come up with standards moving forward. Normally, 44,000 flights safely take off and land here in the U.S., totaling more than 16 million flights per year. With the inclusion of millions of new types of unmanned aircraft, this integration needs to be seamless in order to keep the flying public safe.
Working hand-in-hand, teams collaborated to better understand how these UAS’s would travel in the national airspace by using NASA-developed software in combination with flight tests. Much of this work is centered squarely on technology called detect and avoid. One of the primary safety concerns with these new systems is the inability of remote operators to see and avoid other aircraft. Because unmanned aircraft literally do not have a pilot on board, we have developed concepts allowing safe operation within the national airspace.
In order to better understand how all the systems work together, our team flew a series of tests to gather data to inform the development of minimum operational performance standards for detect and avoid alerting guidance. Over the course of this testing, we gathered an enormous amount of data allowing safe integration for unmanned aircraft into the national airspace. As unmanned aircraft are becoming more ubiquitous in our world - safety, reliability, and proven research must coexist.
Every day new use case scenarios and research opportunities arise based around the hard work accomplished by this incredible workforce. Only time will tell how these new technologies and innovations will shape our world.

This is fantastic!!
- Coconut oil is great for boob sweat
- Essential oils/Deodorant for thigh chafing
- Crop tops? WEAR THAT
- Wanna ride his/her face? Do it. They’re grown. They will find a way to breathe.
- Afraid to have sex with the lights on? Girl, they knew what they signed up for, flaunt them stretch marks. Guarantee you that your confidence will turn them on even more
- Double chin troubles? Search for contouring videos on youtube
- Trouble with confidence? Walk with your shoulders back and your head high, I promise you it works
-Scared to eat in fear of judgment? Please eat, they’re probably not paying you any attention and if they are? Fuck em
- Worried about if you could get away with wearing that? Well I’m telling you that you CAN
And last but not least important, ALWAYS remember:
-YOU FUCKING PRETTY, BITCH

It'a all up to Roger now. If it helps, I used to have a pet Goldfish named Roger. I won him at a fair.
Please, please do research before you buy a bird. Visit a bird rescue, foster if you can. Then see if birds are right for you. Birds are messy, loud and need love and attention. The bird in comic, broke my heart.
TW: animal death / animal neglect
I wanted to draw this comic for a long time, but I never knew how to approach this issue. In my childhood all my friends had budgies, all of them were put aside somewhere and left alone. Treated like “annoying” decoration. Don’t get a bird if you can’t meet its needs.
Sharing my love of birds, dragons, sharks, space and all things Stargate!
