I have found, at least for the British variety of Kraft mac and cheese (the cleverly titled Cheesy Pasta) tastes significantly better without adding the milk.

I don’t usually have an opportunity to test it with the US variety as I don’t tend to make it just for me.

Why is a good time lady so hard to find?

They’re never taught the art of time-keeping?

I don’t think Iduno is particularly anti-Democrat or pro-Republican (and certainly not pro-Trump!) than just anti-Biden.

I may be wrong however, as it’s late and I can’t be bothered trawling through their post history.

They are rabid about he anti-Biden thing though.

I’m not sure what pre-teen physical work has to do with it (spatial awareness?) but she was presumably tired and wanted to go see her family, it being Christmas, so she was distracted also. Not a good combination for driving.

Equally so, she may just not have given that much of a shit about it.

Is CRT even taught in schools?

Like, any schools?

My wife is currently ~7 months through a pregnancy after a miscarriage. Didn’t take long afterward to get her in that condition again, and all this was within a year of both of us getting and recovering from OG Covid.

For how common it is, it’s quite surprising how little people get told about miscarriage until it actually happens. A woman’s body knows what needs to happen in order for a pregnancy to go full-term, and if these things don’t happen it’ll reset things. Usually that leads to a deeply unpleasant and traumatic experience - miscarriage - which probably is so in part because it’s such a stupid taboo-like thing that nobody talks about it, so when it happens those involved feel like they’ve failed in some capacity.

Anyway, long ramble but TL;DR: miscarriage is horrible because nobody talks about it, but is common and can just happen, hopefully your sister isn’t getting too downheartened because of it, because chances are she and her partner aren’t doing anything wrong.

It’s being investigated by the police now.

It would be slightly silly the number of other much more horrible things he’s had happen in his tenure (allegations of cabinet ministers bullying staff, said staff suing the government, the housing secretary taking money for something, a senior adviser driving hundreds of miles for childcare when he had Covid, his inability to answer whether or not he paid for renovations to his flat, etc.)  that he’d be taken down by half an hour at a party, and now apparently a surprise party for his birthday.

When I had Covid, everything hurt. Like, I woke up and felt like I had been torn to pieces and glued back together while I slept.

My regular aches and pains were pleasant by comparison.

Thankfully, governments are run so inefficiently that their lists can only do minimal damage.

Well Russia routinely try to murder defectors in other countries so, perhaps not.

Probably not a good thing to be in a government list in China either.

What animal spends its life basically moving from box to box?

Don’t want to be offensive, but is it a hobo?

“I don’t to be offensive.” *proceeds to be offensive* :p

You’re alright though, I don’t think B12 is frequented by the homeless population.

Though to answer the initial question, the average human being will probably describe themselves by any number of different things in metaphorical box ticking exercises that will be easily understandable by other human beings.

Just to be wide.

I get the most horrible acid reflux after pizza.

Doesn’t stop me eating it, which is very silly.

Celebrating small steps, probably.

In what way is Zelensky Trump-like?

Also, isn’t Poroshenko hugely pro-Russian?

I made my cousin metaphorically poop his pants in Dead by Daylight by crouch-walking toward him.

We were playing against a Scratched Mirror build of Michael Myers, which means they can sneak up on you good and proper and are quite scary to play against as you have no idea where they are unless you can see them.

Even more amusing, shortly after I scared him, the killer snuck up on him and scared him again.
