In their definitions?

Hormones are messengers that communicate between cells around the entire body, and are typically released into the blood to be distributed (thus their systemic effects). This is in contrast to communicative messengers that specifically target a cell, such as neurotransmitters, or paracrine messengers, which pass signals from a cell to other nearby cells.

Steroids are one example of hormones, and are usually cholesterol derivatives. The famous steroids you are familiar with are testosterone (which has several forms) and estrogen (which has several forms). Steroids are lipid-soluble, which means they can enter your cells through the plasma membrane without needing transporters. They then interface with systems inside of your cell, and typically will cause a formed complex to move from the cytoplasm to your nucleus, where they will interface with your DNA and begin promoting a specific gene or gene series.

Other hormones include modified amino acids, such as thyroid hormone, or proteins, like insulin.

Night hours, which I'm not sure exactly when they start and stop, but I was seeing it for when I was driving home around 0000-0500 hours

It's not just GM, either. My insurance app, and the apps of two other insurance companies that I know of, do the same with night driving. I would get off of work and drive home, just to see the driving score get lowered. Twas bullshit.

Pecs come from having arms configured to be moved in multiple axes. If you didn't have pecs, you wouldn't be able to push your arms forcefully in front of you. Think of the classic advice (not entirely a good idea, mind you) on dealing with aggressive dogs: grab their front legs and pull them apart, ripping tendons, ligaments, and other painful goodies. They can't resist that because they don't have pectoral muscles like we do.

So wookies would have pecs. Their arms are configured, as we see, in a similar manner to ours. Deltoids and lats (and other muscles, obviously) to move the arms up and down, pectorals and rhomboids and serratus(es/i) and teres(i) (and other muscles, obviously) to move them front and back.

Closest analogue for a wookie to an earth animal is going to be a marsupial. They are arboreal, they get really angry and rage about but are supposedly peaceful, and it seems like they only have one kid at a time (we only ever saw a female wookie with one lump). They even have the noses of koalas. Thus they would likely have pouches, so maybe a nipple analogue would be buried in the pouch somewhere down by the abdomen.

The defining aspect of Therian or Otherkin was that (when I paid attention to the hilarious arguments), like transgender individuals, they believe they are genuinely the 'other' that they are transitioning to and are stuck in human bodies, while furries just want to be that 'other,' whatever it is.

As a treat for being against them commies?

They just wanted to make sure you know they are running together and exercising appropriately as good examples for America!

Ole Sharkey never did get them damn Gamgees.

Why not just do the prosleeper thing, and use the fitted sheet like a sleeping bag? Let the elastic bits cocoon you snugly by pulling the left and right sides over each other. You could put the pillow outside of the cocoon, and have the elastic bit on your neck if you like a little scratch on it at night, but I prefer the pillow to be pulled lightly into the back of my head for ultimate sheet snuggles.

That IS the ultimate goal. I've talked to these sorts of people (the maga, love trump crowd) for years in areas where they feel comfortable being 'open' about what they want. They really do want an entirely homogeneous, thinks exactly like them country of people.

The others already gave the reasons, but let me put some numbers to those answers. When I jump out of a plane, I get about a minute of freefall. That's because terminal velocity for skydivers usually is ~115-135mph, or 200ft/s. That speed comes when you're flying on your belly, putting about as much drag as possible in the wind. If you're in other positions, like head down or feet down, you can get going much faster (record for head down is over 300mph).

At ~120mph, the jolt from pulling a parachute is pretty good. We use specially designed rigs to actually slow the parachute's opening, so the jolt isn't terrible. When the designs don't work, it can cause injury or even death. That head down record I mentioned earlier? If you pulled at that speed, you are almost guaranteed to suffer major injury. It's why we recommend that skydivers DO NOT learn to do so until they are pretty experienced. There are even more specialized rigs to fly in those positions that ensure accidental deployments of the parachute are next to impossible while at those speeds.

Now, to have a stable orbit in space, relative velocity is vastly larger than even in freefall. If I remember, it's closer to 20,000mph (I think the ISS crew experience a 'sunrise' every 75 minutes). In order to get anywhere close to the safe parachute-pulling speed of ~120mph, you'll need to slow down a lot. Unfortunately, doing so is going to create (transfer if we're being physics specific) a great deal of energy in the form of heat, which will far exceed what they can safely handle. Don't forget that 2003's shuttle accident was because of damage to the heat shield of the shuttle, compromising its ability to keep heat from the crew compartment.

Aye. In one sport I participate in, the saying goes that some people have twenty years' experience, and some people have one year's experience repeated twenty times.
