That’s pretty similar to: “I’ll go and do something“ instead of “I’ll go do something.“ I wonder if there are other examples.

There’s a Pax Romana/olive branch joke in there somewhere

They’ll probably answer something like: around 20 deg/around 70 deg/room temperature/warm/etc

All of which are reductive, and the only non reductive answer would begin with our understanding of the concept of heat

Not eating pork or shellfish with food preservation techniques available 6,000 years ago is definitely backed by science

Do people expect 13-16 year-olds to be more resilient to bullying than younger kids? Are they?

I’d expect that to be the most vulnerable age, but I don’t know. 17-18, I can see, but only because they’re more likely to have more varied social circles, and may be able to find more accepting groups on their own (though that could be a dnd group or an alt-right group, so that’s not necessarily a good thing). Again, I don’t really know anything about childhood development though.

Harris spoke about the importance of equity in education policy, noting that not all students are offered the same opportunities to succeed, depending on financial resources and the environments they are raised in. She said “none of us just live in a silo” and “everything is in context,”

That does feel like she thinks it’s a burden. I’m honestly surprised, given her career pre vice presidency, but it seems like a reasonable take to me.

As discovered from [4], she will not continue to love me if I do not share an equal love for the workplace based drama.

I appreciate the inclusion, but I would probably be considered phobic, if it came up enough to impact my life more. I rejected a window cubicle because the view was stressful and I avoid glass elevators, but that’s really it. Planes are totally fine, though I try not to dwell on actually being very high in the air.

Among those who expressed support for Daniels after her interview with Maddow was writer E Jean Carroll, who sued Trump over allegations of rape and defamation – and won nearly $90m in civil penalties from him. “I’d be happy to help!!” she wrote Tuesday night on X.

Sounds like she will

Ich weiß, dass die Frage eigentlich unlösbar ist, aber es interessiert mich, was andere Leute davon denken. Klingen „die Vibe“ und „das Vibe“ schlecht für euch? Hat jemand irgendeine Ahnung zur Etymologie?

Für Kontext, es gibt ein paar Regeln für das Genus fremder Worte (wer möchte, kann weiter scrollen):

  1. Wenn die Form des Wortes im Deutschen existiert und immer das gleiche Genus hat, hat das Wort normalerweise dasselbe Genus, z.B. die Shrinkflation.

  2. Fremdwörter, die Synonyme auf Deutsch haben, können das Genus dieses Synonyms kriegen, z.B. heißt es der Post, weil „post” synonym für „Beitrag” ist.

  3. Fremdwörter sind sonst normalerweise neutral, z.B. das Banjo.

„Vibe” kommt von der englischen Abkürzung für „vibration“, welches auf Deutsch weiblich wäre. Deutsche Synonyme dafür sind meistens weiblich, z.B. die Stimmung, die Laune, die Schwingung, die Atmosphäre…

Gibt es vielleicht andere Eindeutschungsmöglichkeiten?

If anyone has a better idea for a title, this one’s a little iffy…

I found a new yogurt flavor (alpro lemon-lime) that tastes just like key lime pie to me. I’d like to make it into an actual pie, but it’s a bit too runny.

I’d prefer to avoid cooking the yogurt, so I figured corn starch, flour, and tapioca would all be out. I could do chia seeds, but I don’t necessarily want that texture.

Any ideas?

Hi, ich mache gerade mein Master in Deutschland, aber bin Ausländerin und kenne mich mit dem System nicht so gut aus. Ich weiß, dass es Ressourcen für manche Behinderungen gibt, zB für Menschen in Rollstühlen oder mit Sehbehinderungen. Gilt das auch für ADHS?

Ich frage, weil ich gerade an Schwung verliere, aber ich glaube eine Verlängerung des Studiums noch schwieriger wäre. Wenn jmd. mit ein bisschen Macht bei der Uni (damit sie glauben, dass ich wirklich etwas mache) mir mit der Ordnung und Planung aushelfen könnte, wäre das ein Gamechanger.

I’m wondering if cats think of us kind of like how a person thinks of a friendly bull: aware that they could easily kill us, but not necessarily afraid of them; or more like a large Dalmatian: they could fuck us up, but most of us don’t really think about that unless they’re being aggressive.

I grew up with dogs and feel like I understand them a lot better than I do cats as a whole. I adopted my cat almost four years ago and I feel like I get her pretty well, but I don’t really have an idea of what she thinks about me. I also don’t really know any other cats, though I’ve gotten along with strays and friends’ cats a lot better since I got mine.

I’m sorry if this is not in the spirit of the community, but I figured my dad would know because of his experience woodworking, and I don’t want to ask him for obvious reasons. I’m happy to remove it if it doesn’t fit.

I have an aluminum herb grinder, that regularly gets jammed up with resin. I tend to use a regular (probably pine) food skewer to clean it off, because I don’t want metal shards coming off of the aluminum from a metal scraper or plastic pieces from a plastic scraper. The pine works okay, but I have to replace it regularly and it can’t get everything. 

I know pine is probably one of the softest woods, but would a hard wood be significantly more durable if it were cut as thin as a skewer (4mm diameter round)? Would anything be both reasonably obtainable (I live in a place with frequently abandoned old furniture, if that would be a good source, or I can go to a lumber store) and more durable enough to be worth it?

Mushrooms, onions, garlic, mustard, spinach, chili, vegan yogurt, vegan cevapcici , vegan beef broth, capers, and farfalle. It was incredible.
