Volunteer firefighters (USA), those guys do important work and do not get tax money.

OHIO!!

Meaning they aren’t somehow making money off whatever you’re protesting…

My city has had good turnout for a few protests in the last few months, but yesterday was the first time we took to the streets and caused a few traffic jams. I know it isn’t much, but it is an escalation. It was like scratching an itch, and I’m ready for whatever’s next.

Also realize that there are different places you might feel comfortable driving. For example, I try to avoid driving through large towns and cities as much as I can. I’d rather someone else drive. There’s just too much going on while watching for cars, traffic cues, as well as pedestrians.

On the flip side, my brother hit another car on his very first driving lesson and never drove again! He’s happily living in a city with public transportation :-) just make sure you’re able to get around without relying on others.

But New Hampshire and dumpster have a p…!!

Edit: I JUST FIGURED IT OUT. YOU, CHILD OF THE 90s, IT’S BECAUSE HAMPSTER DANCE WAS SPELLED WITH A P. We are fine, we are sane, but we are still recovering from the 90s Internet. Oh, in so many ways. I can’t believe it took me 30+ years to realize the origin of the P.

Red at the ends just like the poison ivy he’s re-growing next to.

My nephew has a dad and a mawpa, but there are lots of options out there. It’s wise to choose syllable sounds that babies can easily pronounce.

I committed myself to a run this afternoon but felt weak when the time came, so i tested it out and only ran two miles. I’m glad i went out.

For me it is important to maintain momentum, so if my track record is getting a little iffy I’ll be more vigilant about going out and doing the thing and not putting it off.

Agreed, “cloak” feels bigger and heavier than “shawl.” Cloaks aren’t necessarily specific though: you might get coats, or ponchos, or shawls.

Maybe search “shawl cloak”?!

Edit: The user below has it! Search “rechteckmantel.”

Why do you wear them then? I would feel like my toes are all smooshed?

I or another person go once a week. I wish I went every few days, but I love about 20 min away and it’s not my favorite place in the world. For some reason I always make a list even though I buy basically the same things. My partner never uses a list when he goes.

Red peppers, tomatillos, fibrous cereal, milk and soy milk, yogurt/cottage cheese, tortilla chips, a bag of grapefruit when in season, wasa crackers, hummus, eggs / bread / tortillas when low, and whatever I’m making for lunch for the week. Sometimes salad stuff.

I remember reading through the list and thinking “wtf is a ‘clowder,’ hopefully they don’t mean ‘chowder*’”? That’s at least 20 years ago. I’ve never heard “whisper.”

*I have some familiarly with Boston, the land of “chowda,” which is not know to contain cats.

I had a teacher from Spain for three years, then for the next four years they were from various countries: Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, and the US. It was great to get used to each accent.

My favorite is “Do you speak (language)… Please??”

Edit: I’m misinterpreting on purpose. It was a good list.

I’ll add that if you have all that honey, you might also eat more of it than you’d initially planned and run out sooner. Personally, I would start putting spoonfuls in my tea, using honey instead of jam, maybe experimenting with baking…

Uhhh I actually might need an example? Just one, though?

I missed it. Appreciate you.

I so want to downvote, but will refrain. However the gross feeling remains.

I just learned the bit about an ekename from A Way With Words! Great radio program/podcast.
