I never knew that. I thought it went from beagle to seagull and then on to eagle…

A world where it’s not just actors, musicians and sports people who can become stars.

If everything else is wonky then “level” looks wrong.

The sleeping section has a groundsheet that is physically part of the tent - that’s quite common in the uk. Most tents are still two piece (outer and inner sheets) On this type you’d put the fly sheet and poles up and then clip the internal section (with integrated ground sheet) into place.

What about Civil Marriage ?

The sky man don’t need to be involved at all.

Ignore what randos on the web say - the opinions of only two people matter. You and her. Good luck; however it works out.

Me.

You’re familiar with market towns in the UK? A bit like one of those but with hours and hours of agricultural land all around it. A solitary high street in the middle of nowhere.

N.B. I’m not USian so don’t know what I’m on about…

Yup, I pretty much agree with all that you say.

I’m so sorry you had to find out.

Do you regret asking that question?

“I” is the most genderless pronoun in existence - is it not? It literally means me, as a singular human entity. Linguistically I am yet to see any valid argument for its exclusion or substitution in speech. I get the whole problem with he/her etc - there are a specific niche of humans where those words are not sufficient nor apt to describe them and thankfully language then evolved for the sake of inclusivity.

Melt your bank card in acetone. Carefully remove the chip and copper antenna. Place in small mould, fill with resin. Bobby Fingers (YouTuber) did this for a one-eyed friend so he could pay with his eyeball… Consider an rfid blocking case.

Yes - but it is meant to be deliberately backwards as a check and a balance. The idea is that if every law was made and passed by the currently elected politicians only then there’d be a flood of kneejerk reactionary populist laws only. The idea is to have some people with an eye to the bigger picture…

Yeah - back in the day A/S/L was asked so you had a rough idea of the type of person you were talking (typing) with…

37/M/India v 15/F/US would give you a very rough idea of the demographic the other person belonged to - and might shape your conversation differently.

Everyone in Syria is facing their own personal jihad - best of luck to them.
