This is the case of an article misconstruing the meaning of a scientific paper... again.
From what I gather, this is meant to mean the specific context of a gesture having the explicit, consistent purpose- that when it flutters, it means that its partner is supposed to do a specific activity with their nest.
So its not just the context sensitive "I'm letting you go first" like with a cat, or with many other creatures, its more akin to someone texting their spouse "Can you put the kettle on?"
The bizarre thing with this really is that its a visual cue, because we see this all the time with sounds, in all kinds of critters.
What do you mean "But"? Its definitely an "And" scenario. Cat videos are a boon to all involved, right?
Or am I too ace to understand the syntax
Very robust post, covered most of what I'd say in a far more verbose manner than I have the gumption for right now.
Kudos
Pathos NetHack (The OG Roguelike's very newbie friendly fork and UI)
Rogue Saga (A simple, bare bones Roguelike, nice for a casual run)
Orna (If old school Final Fantasy were Pokemon Go, and didn't have predatory monetization schemes) Heroes of Aethric is its non-GPS sibling.
Most of my free android games came from when Amazon did its Amazon Underground thing years ago, so you're kinda SoL on that, sorry.
Shows what I know about Baltimore. How interesting.
I mean, you're not wrong.
IIRC the hospitals are not spread out in ideal locations for this scenario, and I can't see Baltimore pulling an infrastructure miracle to compensate for the collapse any time soon.
This is what I'm thinking.
Its a genuine miracle that this is such a small death toll in a major city like this.
One can hope this raises awareness to fracture critical (iirc the term?) bridges that are vulnerable to catastrophic failures
I heard he only hits the speed of sound when he's rollin' around.
But part of the legacy of Desert Bus is that it was a big charity series that kind of set the stage for GDQ later in gaming history. A sort of virtual road trip.
So a lot of people have nostalgia for it.
You mentioned you're on meds, but how deep does the health rabbit hole go, I wonder? The body is a whole system, after all.
Have ALL your hormone systems been checked, your iron, your inflammation markers, lupus, etc?
Have you ever had a sleep study? (Do you snore?) Do you have migraines or anything like that? Are you perhaps super flexible?
Any of these could be a potential lead to some relief, if you have an additional underlying health issue like sleep apnea, anemia, hypothyroidism, or the likes.
All of these can just fly under the radar for years as just fucking with your head, and most of them can be resolved with pills- supplements, antibiotics, t4, etc.
I personally identify with so many of your fears- I'm personally coming to the realization that I may not be aro ace and I'm in denial, which is scary.
But I've only come so far in part because I feel so much better after getting my thyroid out, getting my thyroid levels right for the first time maybe ever, medicating my sex hormones, and getting my migraines to some relative degree of managed for the first time.
Part of the reason they get so high up on nerd sites (And Reddit at least started as a nerd site) is that they hunger for power, and the right people are too shy to seek power themselves.
This would all be greatly relieved if communities asked for communities to nominate other members, and asked for the type of folks who are the types who would mostly only consider the position of asked/ or if they were write-ins.
People with the capacity but are looked over because they maybe lack the ego or self confidence to take such power.
This works especially well in smaller communities under 4K users or so, which kinda falls apart in our Big Internet world, sadly...
I mean, just play Palworld, Princess Maker 2 and Hatoful Boyfriend and you basically got the desired experience.
I mean, I assume.
I think I'm too ace for this.
