If you deny women access to abortion related healthcare, they die. Abortion bans ruin lives, and if you really have to protest abortions (which you shouldn't), direct your attention towards politicians, instead of harassing women who need healthcare and are already having a horrible time.

As long as they're not inside my house, (and if they were, I would take them outside) I'd say it's fine. They deserve somewhere nice to live (as long as it isn't. inside my house)

seeing these always reminds me of the train scene in Spirited Away

The ITCZ is an interesting case to use here! You're right that it's the thermal equator and has low pressure, but you've gotta consider convection and wind direction too (i.e. the whole Hadley cell). Convection (caused by solar heating) causes low pressure too, and pressure is often relative.

When you're thinking about stuff on a global scale you've always gotta consider the global atmospheric circulation

There's a lot of good explanation in the link I sent - it's tricky trying to consider all the variables together, but I would say that variations in density (latitudinally, at least - unless you want to start talking about hydrostatic balance!) doesn't account for the variation in pressure or temperature.

the complication is that in meteorology, the volume of gas does not remain the same! if you're changing the mass, temperature, density, and pressure of a parcel of air, you definitely can't assume that the volume is constant

it's good to use a different ideal gas equation, instead of PV = nRT (pressure x volume = n * R * Temperature)

we meteorologists tend to stick to unit masses, and use: Pressure = density ×R×T, instead

i.e. when temperature decreases, pressure decreases

the wet bulb temperature^1^ is just the temperature of a wet thermometer, and varies with humidity and temperature. Wet bulb temp is never higher than the dry bulb temp, so (entertainingly) you're proposing that the meaning of 100° varies wildly and is always lower than the true temperature, effectively making the air temperature always ≥100°, and increases when the air is drier, like some sort of inverse relative humidity.

^1^(I'm aware you probably didn't mean wet bulb temperature here, but let's have fun with the idea) :)

The Māori monarchy dates back to the 19th Century, when different Māori tribes decided to create a unifying figure similar to that of a European monarch in order to try to prevent the widespread loss of land to New Zealand's British colonisers and to preserve Māori culture. The role is largely ceremonial.

I would genuinely buy a bra that needed charging if it did something useful (like phase cooling / some sort of refrigeration). Not from Temu though

AuDHD and completely caffeine free (and stimulant/meds/drugs free too). Caffeine definitely doesn't work for me like it does for other people - makes me sleepy and headachey. I'd rather just work with what I've got, (noise cancelling headphones + being inflexible) even if it has limitations

The weather risk management of festivals in the UK is often very unsafe and met with attitudes of "the show must go on!" and "just deal with it!" without any proper planning or attention to forecasts.

Most of Renee Rapp's team's equipment was completely drenched in water and presumably ruined. Whilst it's fine for the festivalgoers to make their own decisions, when it's thousands of pounds worth of electrical equipment - the event organisers really should know better.

She had to let it rest for another 20 hours after getting off the plane anyway. Even if it was really necessary, she could have made the dough at the airport (past security) and kept it fully sealed whilst on the plane.

even if this is true, there are other, much cooler types of clothing than trousers that still cover your arse
