Anya definitely has had some exposure to a medical/genetics environment early in life. There are very few 4-6 year olds that can use words like clone and chimera as fluently as she does. The same exposure probably explains her knowledge of Latin, which is the most common ancient language prep schools teach.

If you want your shirt to be buttoned all the way to the top, I would recommend pairing it with a tie. In addition, I might consider a lighter shirt as the overall outfit is pretty dark.

Don’t stress it too much though, your outfit is perfectly fine! Go ahead and kill it!

Urim has been Israeli since the country came into existence, so I’m not really sure what you’re talking about. Unless your position is that all of Israel is occupied territory, in which case I invite you to take a look at what Palestinians did the moment they gained power over Jewish civilians and imagine that scene repeated across Jerusalem and Tel Aviv.

[–] qwamqwamqwam@sh.itjust.works 18 points 1 year ago

DIY EV kits are a thing, but a quick google shows some wildly varying prices. Probably depends on exactly what kind of car you are trying to refit and the performance you’re looking for.

Basically the title. I would love to get at least a basic working knowledge of repairs and alterations, but I have no experience whatsoever. A “questions that don’t deserve their own post” or “starting resources” thing would be very helpful. Thank you!

Lots of good stuff, but here's the most impressive:

On the heels of last week's impressive start, Angel Studios's Sound of Freedom exploded in its second weekend of release by increasing 37.2 percent over last weekend to place in second this weekend with an estimated $27.00 million. This type of second weekend hold is pretty much unheard of at the box office for an already wide release, but Sound of Freedom benefited from a combination of not-so-typical factors this weekend, including exceptional word of mouth (the film received a perfect A+ rating on CinemaScore), expanding to an additional 413 locations this weekend (and holding onto a very high percentage of its average showtimes from last weekend in holdover locations), last weekend's three-day gross having been deflated at least somewhat by the Tuesday midweek opening and by continuing to receive a boost from the film's Pay it Forward ticket program, in which tickets for the film are being purchased online for others to claim tickets for free. It also appears that the Jim Caviezel-led Sound of Freedom has struck a chord with similar audiences that made The Passion of the Christ a break-out performer way back in 2004. Sound of Freedom has grossed an estimated $85.50 million through 13 days of release and isn't showing signs of slowing down anytime soon (as long as the film continues to hold onto locations and showtimes).
