I was so desperate to get #4 out, I put egg white in my pee sample at my 37 week checkup.

It worked.

"I was so desperate to get #4 out, I put egg white in my pee sample at my 37 week checkup."

I was going to ask what you did that for, but I decided not to.

An elephant, like most animals, produces a baby at a later stage of development. A human baby is born not yet as developed as other animal babies. The human baby is essentially helpless must continue its development outside the womb.

This was originally thought to be an evolutionary adjustment to humans becoming bipedal animals; that a fully developed baby could not pass through the pelvic girdle.

A 2012 theory, however, casts doubts on that and blames the metabolic burden of gestation. "By nine months or so, the metabolic demands of a human fetus threaten to exceed the mother’s ability to meet both the baby’s energy requirements and her own, so she delivers the baby."

The authors of the paper also explore the possibility that early birth optimizes the baby's cognitive and motor development, allowing the newborn to soak up "cultural stuff" early in its development.

Is this an example of hypergamic society?

Let's say it was a Sunday, and let's say you wanted to feel your blood boil....

It's a disease for which minorities suffer and die disproportionately.

What monolith?

9/11 knocked Chandra Levy and Timothy McVeigh out of public consciousness. Covid seems, for the moment, to have rid us of that obnoxious "how dare you" child from Europe. She's autistic, and young women don't always grow up to be attractive to media in full flower: It might be over for her but as a fundraising draw for Greenpeace or something.

Looking for a silver lining here....

Where's Oz?…

Oh, right.

" I put egg white in my pee "

What the rest of us have to beware is angering the cook and getting pee in our egg whites.

Compliment the chef, tip your server, complain at home. It's the only way to be safe.
