Why do I feel like they complained when people didn’t “speak American” in the States

For one week. And they can only be bought online.

I believe this is the recipe

Hello Mittens

For me, I live rurally so yes, I can order one but it’ll take at least a week to get here. Or I can spend as much on gas as the cord costs and waste my time making a special trip into town to get it sooner

Mind you, I still hoarded cords when I lived in a city. Now I can finally justify it

Very true. I think my thought process was something like, if I need a cord and one of my backups is broken, I can use backup #2 and still have backup #3 in case another cord breaks before I can get a new backup.

Has this ever happened? No. “But it might,” whispers the hoarding goblin in my head

Edit: spelling

I’ve tried to cut back on my saved cords, limiting myself to 3 of each kind. Why 3 I couldn’t really tell you

This is my relationship and I’m the first one

Agreed. I should have been more clear, I was just trying to say the “findings” were a bunch of politician-speak that actually says nothing

“Based on the information available to me, it is my assessment that the IDF strike on the WCK aid workers was not knowingly or deliberately directed against the WCK.”

Maybe I’m just too jaded, but this statement bothers me. No, I also don’t think Israel woke up that day and said, “Let’s take out some World Central Kitchen today.” But what the world wants to know (more like wants confirmation of) is that Israel knowingly hit an aid convoy. And to me his statement doesn’t clear that up.

Edited to add the emphasis in the quote is mine

Poor, long-suffering baby! Obviously needs more balls to lose and an automatic ball retriever

From the original court filing: “Defendant would show that any injuries or illnesses alleged to have been sustained by Plaintiff, Mary Doe [the 9 year old girl], were proximately caused by Plaintiff’s own fault and negligence, were proximately caused by Plaintiff’s use of the compromised lavatory, which she knew or should have known contained a visible and illuminated recording device.”

American Airlines is passing the blame to their “outside legal counsel.”

Parentheses and emphasis are mine.

Those eyes 🥺

It’s similar to a pretty normal human walking pace, more a “walking up to a restaurant to meet your friends inside” speed than “slowly strolling through a museum looking at art.” If that makes sense? Fast enough I’d have to step quickly to get away when I’d see the one tortoise who liked to use my pants as her napkin heading toward me with bits of food stuck to her face.

Having worked with several large tortoise species, this is true. They can be much quicker than you expect, especially when they notice you have their favorite food.

It looks like either a Galapagos or Aldabra but I can’t tell for certain.

9:15 then. At 9:15 we’re definitely going to bed.

It comes as a shock to me every day that I need to make dinner. My family needs to eat again? So soon?

I’ve started saying out loud around my child, “Doing it this way isn’t working very well for my brain. I need to try other ways until I find what works for me.”

I needed to hear that so badly as a child (heck I need to hear it as an adult!) And I’ve noticed my child is less hard on herself since I’ve started doing this.
