It’s from wikipedia so you don’t have to save.

Interesting.

Now I’m off to find how a mfing snake ever became a symbol of health.

The Rod of Asclepius takes its name from the Greek god Asclepius, a deity associated with healing and medicinal arts in ancient Greek religion and mythology. Asclepius’ attributes, the snake and the staff, sometimes depicted separately in antiquity, are combined in this symbol.[2][full citation needed]

In honour of Asclepius, a particular type of non-venomous rat snake was often used in healing rituals, and these snakes – the Aesculapian snakes – crawled around freely on the floor in dormitories where the sick and injured slept. These snakes were introduced at the founding of each new temple of Asclepius throughout the classical world.

The significance of the serpent has been interpreted in many ways; sometimes the shedding of skin and renewal is emphasized as symbolizing rejuvenation,[8][a] while other assessments center on the serpent as a symbol that unites and expresses the dual nature of the work of the Apothecary Physician, who deals with life and death, sickness and health.[10] The ambiguity of the serpent as a symbol, and the contradictions it is thought to represent, reflect the ambiguity of the use of drugs,[8] which can help or harm, as reflected in the meaning of the term pharmakon, which meant “drug”, “medicine”, and “poison” in ancient Greek.[11] However the word may become less ambiguous when “medicine” is understood as something that heals the one taking it because it poisons that which afflicts it, meaning medicine is designed to kill or drive away something and any healing happens as a result of that thing being gone, not as a direct effect of medicine. Products deriving from the bodies of snakes were known to have medicinal properties in ancient times, and in ancient Greece, at least some were aware that snake venom that might be fatal if it entered the bloodstream could often be imbibed. Snake venom appears to have been prescribed in some cases as a form of therapy.[12]

What a loss to not give him a sniper rifle.

Sponsorblock will make up for the lost time and save you even more time.

The Butlerian jihad will have happened by then.

Really what’s the difference between the top 3? Other than buttons.

I use ddg but find Google gives better results and Google’s snippet feature still rocks.

Did the price go up in other stores as well when the tax holiday came into effect?

What about other stores?

Now air squats.

Gaol is jail, for the rest of us.

Don’t rely on melatonin pills because then your body stops making its own. Look at magnesium and zinc. Do that with a multivitamin (whose magnesium oxide and zinc oxide are hard to absorb) and you got everything.

Also watch Rocky and Jurassic Park.

Poop ax.

This always gets me. They are producing stuff that we the people buy. They aren’t out there just for the fun of things. Inb4 Lemmy’s famous misreadings, yes it is an issue, yes we need regulation (which we will have to start again from scratch, hopefully in 4 years), yes we need renewables. But this simplistic “it’s just 100 companies” is misleading AF.

Yes I’m aware it’s not an a with decoration jfc. I’m saying for computer entries that garble things, I wouldn’t care about matching it up so perfectly (with dropped whatever those things are called) as to not allow someone to board a plane.

That one I can actually see, having an extra letter that doesn’t match. Dropped punctuation or symbols (whatever the flair is called) though personally I wouldn’t care.

you will not be able to board if your ID doesn’t exactly reflect your details"

Do they care about an apostrophe though? I can see any punctuation being a problem for systems.

Concentrated tree blood.

Close enough I think: Just watched the new mission impossible dead reckoning. Pretty sure no one uses coal trains anymore.
