Like where? I’m curious to look at the style guides from there.

It’s a stretch to assume they’ve thought it through to this degree.

The things you’re saying aren’t necessarily untrue, but through a lot of the 20th century, immigrants and their children accounted for more than half of America’s population growth. A lot of us aren’t descended from the batshit OGs but from people who made perilous journeys in search of a better life, so goes the lore (and of course the people who were kidnapped and brought here in bondage). Your point stands, but there’s a whole lot of different crazy here besides just settler crazy.

Backtracking five years later isn’t strictly the same thing as lying. Five years is enough time to learn new information, and she’s being upfront about the change. I’d be more concerned if she were saying right up until the election that she’s going to ban fracking, then suddenly refused to do so as president.

Who’s = who+is.

Only whose is possessive, always.

I don’t mind this when it’s families that are out trick-or-treating with their own kids. If you’re home and you do it, that’s weird

Big in PA also

what is happening what is this

Not awful. I’ve had only positive experiences. No buyer protections, but it’s hard to get scammed buying something in person from someone local, unless you get it home before realizing it’s fake/broken, or they kidnap you and lock you in their basement. There are pretty simple precautions you can take against either, not that there’s any foolproof solution…but I wouldn’t say awful.

The collection method the way it’s described prevents it from coming into contact with air (just water), but you bring up an excellent point I hadn’t considered, which is that maybe millions of years of farts are to blame for the current state of things

What have you got to lose?

They’re destructive and difficult to deter. If squirrel hate is more common among Boomers, it’s probably because they’ve lived long enough to find this out firsthand.

Any trusted friend who’s been around to witness you meeting new people should be able to tell you.

Just to add on: face away from the bathroom mirror and look into the hand mirror, angling it until you can see the reflection of the reflection of the back of your head.

(Figured if someone out there actually needed this advice, the actual method might not be totally obvious to them without explanation.)

Those have a 5- to 10-year warranty, depending on which kind. Have you tried reaching out to GE for replacements?

That explains why Trump had his doctor release an open letter saying he had a 2cm hole blown in his ear

Would smaller groups feel a reduced strain from that?

Would the shrinkage in the labor force make it impossible to provide end of life care and financial support as the larger generations age?

What type of help would you be offering in that example?

It’s imperative to get to know a kid’s parents and check with them before ever inviting a minor to interact with you in their absence, especially alone. Huge red flags.

A mother struggling in public might well accept your help—as long as you offer it to her. If you instead address the kid, that’s gonna be a no from most parents.
