If it is earmarked for purely defensive equipment, it still indirectly funds their genocide by freeing up other money for it.

My laymans assumption is that acupuncture likely has a counterirritant effect, which can make pain seem less pronounced.

Sort of like how punching yourself in the side of the head can provide relief for a migraine.

We already did this unintentionally during our natural evolution. All we really got out of it were a group of humans who can run slightly faster on average, and a group of humans who can drink milk as adults without shitting themselves.

I imagine the timeframe to get any noticable results would be in the thousands of years, even with deliberate selection for specific genes.

Linux, most likely.

Few things are as affirmative to a mans body image as the communal shower after a rugby game. Not only do you see a true representation of average penises, but literally everyone is suffering "rugby dick" and on the verge of inversion due to blood flow regulation that occurs with intensive excercise.

Given that a meat diet necessitates cruelty, the lesser harm is always going to be a plant based diet, the burden of proof should be reversed.

In the majority of cases, its still going to be stuck under a mangled car that you cant move because it is on fire. A better solution might be to route multiple 'flood tubes' to the battery compartment and place them in easy accessible places. That way you would just need to pop pff an access panel and hook up a hose.

No, they are omnivores, meaning that they do not require meat.

The trick is to justify buying one for your business, and then using it yourself after hours.

As a business asset, it has paid for itself fivefold in less than a year. As an employee of said business, i have unlimited access to a machine that I could never personally justify the expense of.

I wouldnt advise it. You tend to end up with a 'gloopy' rather than 'thick' consistency.

I wish that more effort would go into developing sterilisation methods, rather than killing these animals.

While invasive species are often harmful to the natural ecosystem by outcompeting or killing natives, the individual rat or possum has no more choice in where they were born than you or I. Why should they have to die for the mistakes of the humans five generations removed who brought their ancestors here?

"Zen" by addiction foods seems to be the winner among my lot. Not sure how easy it is to get outside of NZ though.
