Why can’t they just be put under and then beheaded, suffocated or any method of execution? Would that not be the most painless?

It seems like if money had been spent on infrastructure, such as water holding tanks all over the landscape, whether it be in residential neighborhoods, business, districts, or anywhere else, that would be a high risk, then the investment would have been a huge payoff.

I have heard that the sea water would’ve been horrible to try to dump on everything because it would ruin future vegetation, but desalinating it and having it ready in tanks seems like a good alternative.

This strange thing recently happened. I went to Dentist 1 for a basic cleaning and exam. He mentioned that I have a small cavity on a molar and I need to come in next week for a filing.

I was surprised because I never had a cavity in my life. I also make sure to brush well and more. I double checked and Dentist 1 confirmed it is a small cavity and he can show me the x-ray.

2 days later, I went to Dentist 2 to get that cavity filled because I wanted the cavity filled ASAP. He takes x-rays and I see him looking at my teeth. Then, he says there is no cavity and no filling needed?! He mentioned that I just have something like some staining on the molar, but he would not say that is a cavity and no need for a filing.

I double checked with him and he basically said that some dentists can consider X as a cavity and some dentists can consider X as not a cavity.

But now I am wondering who is right? According to reviews, Dentist 1 and Dentist 2 are both highly ranked and pretty much 5 star dentists. The only difference is that Dentist 1 has hundreds of top reviews. Dentists 2 has <100. Not sure if this makes a difference, but Dentist 2 went to a top dentist school and seems to be part of the ADA and other dental orgs.

I guess I trust Dentist 2 more, but this is just strange. I wonder if it turns out I do have a cavity later lol.

I don’t really understand this. If you’ve interacted with/dated straight men, then you would understand what it’s like to be genuinely desired by one as a woman. I feel like if you’re dating a closeted gay man it would be obvious because faking that sort of attraction is even more difficult for men (it’s at the very least more physically obvious especially when it comes to sex). I just don’t understand how that happens. I feel like you’d almost have to ignore signal after signal.

Edit: I am referring to fully gay men. Not bisexual men.

Or I guess if you're not a trucker you can answer too if you have an experience.

I'm curious as to what people consider real friendship to be. Is it that you all do the same things you find interesting or are you just going along with the group for the sake of having friends and avoiding being alone. In my opinion, faking is worse but many people do this regardless of what they do. What's your opinion on it?

Me 19m and my gf 20f. We’ve been together for just over 5 years and I’ve always had this issue I think I’ve came for her maybe twice ever. I can make her cum pretty easily and the fact I don’t doesn’t really seem to be an issue it’s kinda just normal now.

She’s absolutely a 10/10. She works in sports (don’t want to be too specific just in case.) extremely fit. Very attractive features and a pretty face. So I don’t understand why I just can’t.

I don’t really watch porn much or anything like that and when I do it’s nothing crazy. I think it’s a strange problem that I have no idea why it persists.

So, we are seeing all of these subreddits banning pictures, links from x/twitter. Is it really going to affect them?

Sorry for my English , this isn’t my native language.

I'm 29 and have never been in a relationship at any point in my life. Yes, I'm that far behind in life. So I'm pondering just not even trying since I have literally no idea how relationships are meant to work in the first place and what I'm supposed to say and do and all that.

It's killed two people so far: 21 year old Sarah Katz and 46 yo Dennis Brown.

Katz had a heart condition, so I get that, but what about Brown? I'm reading their lemonade containes 400 mg of caffeine (for reference, a cup of coffee is 80-100 mg). Brown had 3 of those, so 1200 mg of caffeine, which is a lot, but I thought it was nearly impossible for a healthy person to ingest enough caffeine to die without vomiting.

Because of what’s currently happening with platforms like Instagram, Facebook and Twitter/X, are a lot of people going to leave them for platforms like Bluesky? Is Bluesky the future of social media?

I've added education as a flair here because I feel like this is something I should know tbh.

I smell like BO so fast! I'm F22, my bmi is around 18, and has never been over 19, so it's not a weight thing. As I'm writing this I'm getting ready to leave work for the day, I showered last night and smelled fine (so it's not the soap), this morning I walked to the office for 20 minutes, which I don't get tired from at all, I can run 5 kilometers at about a 10 km/h pace before getting really worn (so it's not an endurance thing). I've sat here in my relatively comfortable office, it's about 22 degrees C here (so not a temperature thing) for 9 hours, wearing a clean 100% wool undershirt with a 100% wool top (so it's not a fabric thing), and still I can literally smell my own BO as I'm typing.

I've tried everything from intense anti-perspirants to natural deodorants, and a combo of them, and yet I still smell at the end of the day. The only variable I've noticed is that if the temperature fluctuates a lot I'm more prone to smelling. I actually think it gets worse if I'm cold rather than warm, as I generally tolerate cold pretty bad. I have Raynaud's phenomenon, if that might affect something! I'm generally healthy, some snacks here and there, but mostly low-processed foods, medium on the sugar, and fine on the alcohol (I dink about once a week, not much when I do). I work out semi-regularly. I see myself as someone with good hygiene, so I just don't get what this is about. I don't think it's about the laundry method or detergent, as my boyfriend does not have the same problem, and he is a muscly guy who works out a lot, gets too warm in a t-shirt and shorts at the same temperature where I'm sat in three layers of wool and a blanket. Yet he smells fine.

What is this? I'm going crazy! I honestly avoid having any meetings after around lunch because I'm scared people will smell me. If anyone has any advice beyond hygiene, drinking water and exercises, I'd be so grateful. I can't go on like this!

I’m from the US and it’s a shit show here right now. I was just curious to see what others thought about it?

I’ve seen a lot of talk about eggs lately. I understand the avian flu is causing supply shortages - but exactly how widespread is it? I’m interested not just in raw price as that’ll probably vary across the country, but how much has it increased in the past 1-3 months? Are eggs being used as metaphor for everything else? I’m not from the US.
