English logic is nonexistent lol. We're Dutch's weird cousin who spent too long in France and wears a Latin trenchcoat.
This is why American (I'm sure Commonwealth countries too, not so sure about other Anglophones) children learn so many little rhymes and word games that make fun of how many exceptions there are to every rule.
Quiche is a French loanword which are always extra fucked.
Except it's all of humanity and not a fucking captain. It's a canoe and we all have paddles of varying effectiveness.
It's not unfounded optimism because at least some people are trying to paddle away from the fucking iceberg.
Shutting down any and all attempts at being optimistic make people shut down and then ACTUALLY do nothing, rather than the minimal they already do because they feel bombarded by hopelessness and go "what's the point?".
So fucking point to the scientists, point to the companies going green, point to EVs and a grassroots movement towards walkability and public transport that's always growing.
Stop with the "unfounded optimism" bullshit unless you actually think future generations deserve to suffer for their ancestors' mistakes.
Hamas today could be a thing of the past, or as close to irrelevant as possible, if Israel would put in the effort to help Palestinians. Maybe help Palestinians realize that they could have a better chance with Israel than Hamas and that peace is possible.
This would take Israel being the "bigger man" to use a turn of phrase, but every chance they're presented with just like right now, they instead choose Zionism and indiscriminately murder civilians.
It's a fucking material with insane recyclability, what it was previously used in won't have an influence on what it's repurposed for, it's the Confederacy not a fucking 1000-year-curse. "Tainted" is about as good an excuse not to recycle it as "I don't wanna".
I more meant like habits formed in child hood type of family. Like my parents were both up at the crack of dawn, or earlier, so anything even as early as 4am wasnt "my time". So I shifted into being a nightowl to have some time where I wasn't beholden to anyone.
That you're an Israeli shill? I was trying to be nice about it, guess not. See how I use Israeli to refer to people? Since it's Israeli citizens who lose because of an extremist Israel? Hamas are terrorists, Israel is an apartheid state. The citizens both groups have control over are suffering and your trying to conflate denouncing Israel and antisemitism. Stop.
Israel=The Israeli govt. in basically every conversation within this context. Trying to say "but both right?!" When that's what everyone has been saying from the start, makes you look like you're acting in bad faith.
This guy was in Phoenix, AZ. The pavement he fell on was bare minimum that hot this summer. Multiple people, including kids had severe burns after falling this year.
The biggest problem is it isn't instant. Every try to stand up by pushing your hands down on 100°C pavement? How about when you fall hard on your side and then the skin on your leg, as you try to stand, sticks and doesn't come up with the rest of you? It's pretty fuckin brutal.
Pretty much, there's some pretty clear distinction as well. Like you won't find anyone on any part of a coast calling themself a midwesterner obv, but also the south east has the distinct trait of being The South, for better or worse. Usually worse. Southwest also gets a similar effect from being what everyone thinks of as "cowboy country".
It's all the middle junk nobody wants which is why there's so much of it.
Seriously tho, the historic context is that "The West" was west of the Mississippi river, which iirc got started calling that after the Louisiana Purchase. So the previous "west" wasn't accurate enough so the states between the Mississippi and the Appalachian mountains (chiefly the northern states around the Great lakes). Then the area has just kind of expanded to include the plains states since they're also flyover country
My mom and aunts split my grandmother's ashes evenly in 3 identical urns. We also used incredibly tiny amounts in urn jewelry (jewelry with a small chamber).
