Do you? “Thousands” is the word in question here
Do you? “Thousands” is the word in question here
They’re good when they’re crumbled as an ingredient or topping. As-is they’re gross.
You said you’d never heard it that way, I just wanted to clarify that I communicated the right pronunciation since “sewer” is a bit more drawn out than I meant to imply. All good
Clearly not, I’ll repeat the excerpt from your source
As a term, communist state is used by Western historians, political scientists, and media to refer to these countries. However, these states do not describe themselves as communist nor do they claim to have achieved communism
Wikipedia called the USSR a “flagship communist state”, Wikipedia also explicitly said that even though some in the west use the term “communist state”, that those states are not in fact communist. So obviously you cannot hold two related facts in your head simultaneously.
Can you read?
With about as much value as 10 seconds of research would imply. I clicked on one link there to find:

Please be so kind as to produce some of this historical literature
None of which any state which has nominally aspired toward Communism has achieved. There have been no Communist states. There have been states which have claimed, perhaps earnestly, that they are trying to transition to Communism. There can be no Communist state, it’s a contradiction of terms.
Closer to sewer, or “doer” or “fewer”. Compress it to one syllable. Think “ooh” not “ohh”.
Bore rhymes with tore. Tour is closer to sewer
The billionaire space race does benefit us. Also billionaires should be taxed much higher. Also billionaires shouldn’t exist because workers should receive a fair proportional percentage of their companies’ profits, not just flat wages. Multiple things can be true.
Move fast and break things, I guess. My take away is that the genie isn’t going back in the bottle. Hopefully failing fast and loud gets us through the growing pains quickly, but on an individual level we’d best be vigilant and adapt to the landscape.
Frankly I’d rather these big obvious failures to insidious little hidden ones the conservative path makes. At least now we know to be skeptical. No development path is perfect, if it were more conservative we might get used to taking results at face value, leaving us more vulnerable to that inevitable failure.
There are varieties of mac’n’cheese other than Kraft
Look, some people just can’t digest it. As you get older, your ability to process mac’n’cheese without dire intestinal consequences drops off substantially. The pros just simply aren’t worth the cons, not by a long shot.
Doesn’t stop me tho
Her is set in 2025
“It would be nice to develop an auxiliary sign language to bridge the accessibility gap between the hard of hearing and those who don’t learn a dedicated sign”
“You’re just as bad as the colonizers that decimated native American cultures”
Get out of here with that bad faith savior complex nonsense. Teaching indigenous people English wasn’t the problem, the problem was beating children for using their native language. I guess you think literacy is racist too because literacy requirements were used to disenfranchise black Americans, huh?
Your sanctimonious colonization comments are dripping with irony. I asked a question, directly to another person, about their opinion of the concept as a deaf/hard of hearing person. You interceded uninvited, deliberately ignored the explicitly stated context of the question (gestural languages having unique properties from verbal ones) so you could shoehorn in your opinion about a topic explicitly excluded by that context, which you smugly assumed I wasn’t familiar with, purporting the relevance by referencing authors who wrote very little about the actual topic at hand.
You want to talk about colonizers, look at your own actions here.
My goalposts are in precisely the place they started: a collection of basic international gestures to facilitate the most basic communication. Where are you jumping to colonization? Where did I say that my cultural group gets to decide what the signs are? You’re, again, wildly overestimating the scope of my proposal and jumping to ridiculous, unsubstantiated conclusions.
You get a group of signers from around the world to develop an international pidgin (like they already do informally at international gatherings) and come to consensus based on commonality. When the majority agree on a sign, use it. Where there’s little agreement, choose a new sign. No finger spelling, no complex abstract concepts, just a formalization of gestures most people could probably figure out anyway. I fail to see how that perpetuates colonization unless that’s what you’re setting out to do with your methodology.
The third line makes it pretty clear that he’s still pretty young and hasn’t figured out what he likes yet.
