I’m sitting on the train by myself and cackling. I don’t know why I find it so funny.

Salt will dissolve after some time, so it’s imperative to get the rubbers on quickly. You would use salt over sand if you planned on sawing it apart at some point, since sand would dull the blade.
If you put a little sand or salt on the wood glue, the parts won’t slide that much.
You have at least one Native American language in most states.
Weapon industry is not in any way softer than military industrial complex. There might even be a language thing going on, since in German it’s called Waffenindustrie. There are clearer points to criticise here.

They vanish one by one. I am left with the ghost of a family that only ever existed long enough to frighten them. My sons! They are lost to me, not to death, but to recognition. I remain here, a mother only in the wreckage of the experiment, watching the door they fled through. And the house is quiet again.
Nah, she’s 5 or younger. She lied about being 6 (school age) to get adopted. It’s a very wholesome story (if you disregard the war, political intrigue and terrorism).

2·4 months agoYes but in figure 1 it’s a noun modifying another noun. Like police car siren. Police and car aren’t adjectives in that example.
If your friend group is 6 men and 4 women, do you tell people “I’m mostly friends with men”?
Freudian slip?
First it will help more people, then it hurts.
Maybe I’m misunderstanding you, but the little shelves are not swiveling like a seasaw, they’re fixed and keep their orientation (respective the ground) via the sun gear

2·5 months agoHe made promises of dragging them all through the justice system for corruption and embezzlement. People voted for him because they want to see consequences. I hope it happens.

If you’re a farmer, all your animals don’t know about dst. You have to change your whole daily routine now.
If it’s actually bread from a bakery and not wonderbread slop, then I’m not getting scammed.





Nah, our humour and our everyday conversation is chock full of wordplay. Obviously it’s hard to detect the humour if one doesn’t speak the language. Humour is a nuanced thing anyways and also plays with cultural associations.
For example if I were with friends in a pub and only ordered one beer and someone asked me why and I replied: “I muss fei spare” , the text itself isn’t funny
(I have to save money).
But it would be funny because I said it in a slight Swabian accent and because of the cultural association of Swabians being penny pinchers.
It wouldnt be hilarious mind you, just a little funny to spice up conversation. How would one translate or even understand that?
