Looking at the video, it seems to corral floating debris onto a conveyor, so it would be extremely unlikely to harm a duck. Even if a duck somehow got all the way on to the conveyor, all it would do is drop them on the top of the pile of things in the dumpster, again, not really hurting them. edit Trash wheel says ball python survived, I'm sure duck could.

I don't think you'd use it where people kayak. It appears you could probably kayak right over the corral floats, but the motion would probably knock loose a bunch of the garbage you were trying to keep place. I'd think it would be like trying to sweep a sidewalk where people are skateboarding. Not really going to hurt someone, but not the ideal location for either party.

He gave a really good podcast interview a while back, trying to remember where, and he talked about how he doesn't hate those things. He just feels that they don't represent fine cuisine, and wants to push chefs out of their comfort zone. To him, it's not just about the best dish wins the money, he actually wants to feel like they're trying to make a $10,000 dish, and he said something like a salad with raw onions can taste good, but will never be that dish.

He actually seems pretty level-headed. Also, he had some really great tips for making pasta. Apparently that's his specialty as well.

Not that I'm familiar with, but it might depend on writing standard used. Brackets on the outside are commonly used in journalism and research publication for editorial notes, which would make reading very confusing if you intended them to be an outer set-equivalent of parentheses.

I basically simplify it by saying that parentheses as an outer set contain a statement in the same voice, as an aside, while brackets contain an interjection by a separate narrative entity. However, this is almost completely irrelevant to fictional writing, so perhaps they use different standards. I can't say I've seen it come up much in any novel I recall.

There's a good deal of miscommunication here; while it's likely /u/iatealltheapples question was expecting some obvious aberration of the vulva, the truth is that you already saw and described the process for imagery of your condition, as observed through MRI.

A Google image search for "MRI MRKH Syndrome" will provide a very clear view of typical presentation for affected organs.

I do offer my condolences for the emotional stress and having to come to terms with the realities of parenting options. Please consider that, while your situation is not common, there are a vast multitude of other conditions with similar outcome and consequences. People who may not share any of your specific physiological issues may still be a great support and fully understanding of the profound impact this can have, and will be willing to share their support
