How old were you when you figured out that the reason they don't want pregnant women in their third trimester to go on planes isn't that there are specific health risks, but that they don't want to have to deal with it in case they go into labor?

Because I'm in my early 40s and I was today old.

I would call going into labour mid flight as a health risk in its own right.

Oh absolutely, but I was thinking "maybe it's the radiation at altitude, maybe it's the lower air pressure", just gliding right past the obvious thing of "flight attendants aren't midwives".

Started looking up what happens to your citizenship if you are born in international waters / air space and it seems it's very complicated.

wikipeedia posted:

In addition to the question of a child's citizenship, there is also a question of how to report "Place of Birth" for children born in transit. US State Department guidance instructs that a child born in international waters should have their place of birth listed as "AT SEA", while those born in the territorial waters of any country would list the name of that country. A child born in flight in a region where no country claims sovereignty would list their place of birth as "IN THE AIR".

Given how hard it is to fly as you get close to giving birth it's no wonder the airyan nation is dying out.

So why can't pregnant women go on rollercoasters then? If they start giving birth it'll be over soon enough for them to get in a vehicle and go to the hospital :colbert:

In parts of America, these are referred to as butter knifes, and being serrated, are sharp, even if not extremely sharp.

They look cool and I'm sure they spread butter fine, but wouldn't a wooden butter knife eventually end up with a bunch of rancid butter packed down into the grain of the wood?

I'm a bit surprised by how low a cashier's wage is in Czechia. I visited Prague in 2010 or so and even then the cost of living didn't seem that much lower to me than in Western Europe. Of course, I assume it's different outside of the capital city.

e: wait this isn't the right thread at all

Metal butter knives are tangibly better, I’m sorry nords or whoever. If nothing else it’s probably less environmentally impactful to make cheap rear end metal sticks than to use wood, especially when cheap rear end metal forks and spoons and knives are already being churned out.

That said, I don’t care what that one goon thinks a butter knife looks like, I really want to know how they managed to cut themself with any kind of one.

Some butter knives have semi-sharp serrations along the front ~1/3 or so, so they can also be used as general purpose dinner knives.
