I’m not sure what you mean by local as each indigenous nation presumably had their own way of referring to the land.

‘Turtle Island’ is the common translation for the ways that many Algonquian- and Iroquoian-speaking refer to North America.

Where I live (Lekwungen territory) means “place of the smoked herring”.

If heaven is really what they say it is, then absolutely you can suck a bag of dicks. I bet JC himself would join you.

I’m not a bastard, but I’m a bandaid. My sister and I like to debate which is worse (:

That’s right, it’s an issue in Catholicism too. That’s why my sister wasn’t conceived before marriage, she was just born a few months early 😉😉

At my work there is like a 70-year-old security guard who spends his 12-hour days learning new languages. I don’t know how his other languages are, but when he speaks Spanish to me, he does so extremely well. The only issue is that sometimes he gets mixed up and speaks Mandarin instead of Spanish to me but we’re not gonna fault him for that one.

To be fair, the man is a retired physiology professor so he’s been learning his whole life and is probably a pretty smart dude, but I’m sure if you apply yourself and enjoy learning, you wouldn’t have an issue at least getting the basics of another language.

I was thinking if it’s just a ballot that has a number but it’s not attached to your name. I.e. if the person handing out the ballots gives you a random one and you’re the only one who knows your own number. I’ve never used electric voting machines but maybe a randomly generated number that you can know but nobody else would know?

I haven’t done the type of deep dive research others mention here but I trusted my doctor when he told me this was a good choice for me. I also don’t live in the US so have no reason to believe he’s being paid off. If there are worse consequences than what I’ve discussed with him already, I guess I’ll have to deal with that.

There are also non-medicinal ways to treat binge eating, and I’ve known people that have had good success with therapy/CBT for that, in case that’s something you can afford or are interested in.

I’ll bite. I’m on it for what some people here would consider “recreational” purposes (weight loss). However, I have polycystic ovaries and have had extreme difficulty losing weight in other ways. Essentially the only way I can lose weight is doing a pretty severe calorie deficit, which is really hard to do and essentially means I am starving all the time. Ozempic has helped me curb that perpetual feeling of hunger, and besides diarrhea (which I already had often anyway), it hasn’t caused me that many side effects.

Essentially PCOS causes a craving for carbs and sugar. It’s hard to fill that hole, but there are other ways to supplement the things that my body is not creating which make me crave those things. While I’m on ozempic (I don’t plan on using it long-term) I’m also working to make changes to my diet to make sure I’m getting those things I was missing (B12, chromium picolante, some other stuff with scientific names).

And I know people think it’s just “lazy”, which it is for some people, but I struggle to lose weight even with exercise and calorie deficits. Ozempic has helped me lose some, but not as drastic as other people.

I have friends who are on waygovy (the same drug as ozempic but specifically targeted at weight loss) and they’ve had more side effects than me, but they are significantly bigger, have less healthy lifestyles and are I believe on a much higher dose than me. They’ve lost a ton of weight though.

I understand your point, but colonization never stopped. We’ve been watching it in North American countries through reserves/reservations, residential schools, the continuing child welfare system. Our entire political systems are set up to uphold the ongoing colonization. Israel is just being a lot more obvious about it.

Now I really want to know the answer though

Yeah I grew up without a kettle and just lived with shitty badly heated water. Got myself a kettle after moving out and improved my tea experience greatly.

I got my parents a kettle though because my mom, especially, drinks about 10 cups of hot water a day, but she hates the kettle and won’t use it. I do not understand.

Microwave can take 2-3 minutes depending on how hot you like it and how shitty your microwave is. They also tend to not heat evenly.

A good kettle might also take about 3 mins, though some can take up to 5 or 6, but you’re guaranteed properly heated water.

I’m embarrassed that I’ve never even thought of attempting this… Do all microwaves have that option?

I used it on w10 for the snipping tool and it still works on w11.

I was gonna post this one! I cannot stress the amount of time it has saved me in life. Also great combo with the clipboard history enabled so you can take a bunch of screenshots at once, then paste them elsewhere later. Great for doing user instructions.

Oh I love this one too, probably one of my most used.

I know I don’t clean it often enough but I also don’t think that dust should happen after like two days of a deep clean

What is it advertising?

Edit: oh got it
