Completely? No sperm, no embryo/fetus/baby and no placenta either.

But, of course, zealots want you to carry those to term now.

My horse has low self esteem because his walrus friend always makes fun of his flaccid dingding.

Reply to TIL of the Bolvano Train Disaster which claimed the lives of more than 500 people in 1944. After the train became stalled in a tunnel, the passengers and crew succumbed to carbon monoxide poisoning when the locomotives attempted to continue and filled the tunnel with smoke. by MorsOmnibusCommunis
Even today, there's still people dying from CO poisoning because of ill-aired rooms, so don't forget to properly maintain your heating and aerate it.

Yeah but the eggs come from the mother, just trying to create another argument for abortion, Just wear protection or practice safe sex. Simple as that

Unfortunately, that's not how the laws see it. And even if they did, it can be difficult finding a doctor that will risk the chance of being prosecuted (even if they're found not guilty or the law is overturned in their case, it will still impact their life).

It's the same with the anti-trans stuff. Kids aren't getting surgeries. The vast majority of "gender affirming care" for kids is therapy, puberty blockers, and hormones. All of these are reversible. And all the science says they improve the outcomes for the kids. Yet here we are...

Reply to TIL That the Hallway (as an architectural feature) was first recorded in 1597 by SalMinellaOnYouTube
From the Wikipedia page on John Thorpe > Thorpe's major-but-little-trumpeted contribution to world architecture is the humble and now-ubiquitous corridor "for a house[3] in Chelsea", London, England, in 1597,[4] allowing "independent access to individual rooms". Previously, the fashion was the so-called enfilade arrangement of rooms in a dwelling in which each room led to the next via connecting internal doors. The enfilade remained popular in continental Europe long after the corridor was widely adopted in England. Flanders believes Thorpe's inspiration was the one-sided covered walkway common in monastic cloisters. Given their similarities, this is a reasonable prima facie conjecture.

Reply to comment by Riff316 in TIL: Thanks to poor internal communication at NASA, information about a spacesuit water leak wasn't properly communicated. Later, Astronaut Luca Parmitano almost drowned on a July, 2013 ISS space walk, his helmet filling with several liters of water before they could get him back inside. by OvidPerl
I assume it would depend on the amount of water. I feel like if it is enough water to fill a helmet to the point of threatening to drown, the expanding water itself would probably block up any small vent or opening in a helmet before a meaningful amount of it was evacuated. I'm not a space man though so it very well may work.

“Pro-lifers” only protect children before they’re born; then they don’t care if those kids get shot in school or starve on the street.

The placenta is made by the fertilized egg, which is jointly created by the sperm and the unfertilized egg.. so no, the placenta is not made by the mother.
