“Pain during labor is caused by contractions of the muscles of the uterus and by pressure on the cervix. This pain can be felt as strong cramping in the abdomen, groin, and back, as well as an achy feeling.”
The muscles are fully capable of performing the action. The contractions and spasms are the pain, as your body prepares them for what they need to do.
Besides, it’s not actually the uterus that needs to contract, it’s the cervix. And we have no way of knowing if elastagirl has manual control over her cervix. Most women don’t have control over their cervix, hence why these contractions have to happen for childbirth to take place. It could also be risky to the fetus to try to stretch enough to make that happen.
I’m not taking it personally? I’m a bit lost now. I just commented a response.
My urge to drink vs my absolute hatred of hangovers is an endless battle within my mind and liver
I feel like both of us might benefit from moderation
Never said I was. I’m trying to become more aware of it.
The problem with YouTube is that people make real money off of their content, in an honest way. Unless you can match or exceed that level of income, you don’t have much of a chance of competing. People’s livelihoods would be at stake
Reddit was big, but not profitable for users. At most, it was a social boost and marketing. That’s easily replaceable. Real, significant profiting, not so much.
Considering contractions would be part of the birthing process caused by hormones overall, probably still painful. I don’t think her uterus realizes it’s elastagirl on a hormonal level. Just because you know and can solve the issue doesn’t mean your body stops freaking out
Rather than jump to “trauma” here (and believe me, I say this as a person with PTSD), could you elaborate on what you mean by “fear”?
(Just in case anyone’s using a screen reader)

[Three identical stock photo images of a smiling man with crossed arms in a white labcoat are shown, with the one in the centre being normally sized, and the one on the right being shrunk down to a fraction of the size of the first, so the smaller one’s head is just below knee height of the larger. A third copy of the same stock photo has been added to the left of both of these men, enlarged to the point where everything save for his giant legs are outside of the frame. There is text above all three men, transcribed from left to right]

Big enough that the heat from it would probably set a lot of things on fire and as a result mess with the atmosphere in other ways
Also, given the average puff is about 35mL of smoke, and there’s about 30 puffs average in a 0.5g joint, that gives us 1050mL of smoke in a 0.5g joint, or about 1.05kg (to unit transfer here) per 0.5g joint. There’s an estimate of 5.1480x1018kg (think five quintillion) of fluid in the atmosphere. So that would be an increase by a factor of about 4.9 quintillion. Converting the joint weight to kg gives you 0.0005kg per joint. So you multiply those.
Your joint would have to be 2.451429x1015kg of weed. 2.45 quadrillion kilos. For reference, the weight of all humans on this earth combined is about 390 billion kilograms.
I’m tired lmao someone check my work I may be stupid
They like having no competition, by being friendly at first, then crushing us when we let them access our userbase. Defederate, with no second thoughts. If the Meta users want to experience the fediverse, nothing is stopping them from making a Lemmy account on any instance.
The content is facebook-oriented content. Idk if it would even really be the kind of audience that most of the fediverse would be able to sustain.
As it is, reddit was a concern for many people. Facebook? Not a chance.
Besides, large scale defederation discourages Meta from trying to weasel their way into everything like that. Don’t encourage them. They want you excited, but overlooking the massive issues.
By that logic, nothing we can say will
