I clicked wrong one first, her head bigger than laptop screen. But more seriously, script of the animation needs to be recorded, and listened to or read every day.

We owe 'her' an apology.

I'll take that to mean when a senile puppet fails to respond with teleprompter.

One of the primary reasons why Keanu Reeves has a clause in his contracts that states no CG editing is ever to be done to any of the characters he plays in his movies. CG the whole movie, if need be, just not anything about his person. I don't know or care if he is left right center or no affiliation to politics, he has the right idea there.

Neck ties and long sleeves with the lathe is a lethal combination.

It is a wonder that any of us, or for sure our grandparents, survived!!

A necktie surpasses the 'danger' of long sleeves?
No, those are buttoned-up close.
How many of us worked around rotating or reciprocating machinery for decades without serious injury? Were we miraculously saved by a safety poster, or ample self-awareness? That includes sufficient if not continual evaluation of our surroundings. Isn't a necktie less dangerous than working on flight deck of an aircraft carrier?
If there were a poll, most will say they'd prefer to rely on themselves than an administrative process. It's not much different than "when seconds count, the police are just minutes away".
