That's exactly what I was going to say. Yes, Kickstarter is more risky than going into a shop, but it simply isn't true that every game on Kickstarter is there because they were turned down by traditional publishers, many have chosen Kickstarter first. Equally, it's simply not true that...

What is "real"? Biological=/= real. For the record, I wouldn't like to have to be someone who had to make a decision over it, because it's a hell of a lot more complicated than "biological parents are real parents" or "it's the law". We have laws about child abduction, because it's generally...

In the UK, the political candidates all look at the blank or spoilt papers, to confirm that they are actually non-votes. So, if you want to get a message to all your local candidates, write it on the ballot paper. They'll read it. This may also apply in other countries, too.

I gave birth.

A few points... Movement- yes, a fetus moves. Respiration- Respiration and metabolism are different things, actually. Metabolism is simply defined as the sum of all the chemical reactions that take place within an organism's cells. Respiration is a process (of chemical reactions) within...

Which list are you using as a reference here?

That is kind of the point. Not even a chicken egg, that is so low maintenance, comparatively so, that it can develop outside of the mother, can be left alone. By extension, human pregnancy, where the egg--> zygote --> embryo --> fetus requires such intensive care from the female's body...
