I think our best hope is to move to California and then wait for The Big One to break CA off from the rest of the US.

Gay man here in Missouri. A lot of my trans friends and me are very concerned about our futures.

No dress rehearsal today, it’s the stage manager’s nap time, go practice your lines for a few hours.

Thankfully there’s an entire field of linguistics that’s already done the work. Quick Google search shows 22 Latin descendant languages, and 24 Germanic descendant languages. So slightly more, yeah.

Romanian, Catalan, Sicilian, Galician, Venetian, probably a number of other dialects, are also Latin descendants.

Poor bird. That imprint is almost cartoonish, lol. Glad the lil dude’s going to be ok, though.

On an unrelated note, “factoids” are things commonly believed to be true, but actually aren’t. I guess you could say factoids are factoids!

True. I’d wager a decent chunk of that urban sprawl is due to our massive parking lots.
