AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around seeking recommendations for effective forms of birth control, with an emphasis on personal experiences rather than professional advice. Participants acknowledge the limitations of various contraceptives, particularly their inability to prevent STDs, suggesting that combining spermicide with condoms could be a safer option. Concerns about potential side effects of hormonal birth control, such as weight gain and decreased libido, are also raised, reflecting a desire for methods that do not negatively impact physical appearance or sexual health. The conversation includes light humor but remains focused on the serious implications of contraceptive choices.

I was just wondering if any of the females know of any good forms/kinds of birth control?

If so, what are they? I know you can't really recommend any, but which one(s) worked good for you? I work at a pharmacy, but I would prefer not to work with any of the people I work with, it might be weird, but I know they would be willing to help...

Super-Glue and a cork.

Well, it worked for my cat... :redface:

Okay, cheap joke. I assume that due to your occupation you know that most contraceptives don't protect against STD's. If that's a concern, stick with spermicide and condoms.

Thread 'I need help understanding this quote about recent Natural Selection'

This thread is my attempt to understanding the evidence that Natural Selection in the human genome was recent and regional. On Page 103 of A Troublesome Inheritance, Wade writes the following: "The regional nature of selection was first made evident in a genomewide scan undertaken by Jonathan Pritchard, a population geneticist at the...

Thread 'Fermentation using mixed legume and grain feedstock'

I use ethanol for cleaning glassware and resin 3D prints. The glassware is sometimes used for food. If possible, I'd prefer to only keep one grade of ethanol on hand. I've made sugar mash, but that is hardly the least expensive feedstock for ethanol. I had given some thought to using wheat flour, and for this I would need a source for amylase enzyme (relevant data, but not the core question). I am now considering animal feed that I have access to for 20 cents per pound. This is a...
