@lettpoupette Not as common as woah, Noah.

why do a lot of americans write ‘ect’ instead of ‘etc’, is there a common abbreviation rule I don’t know of in the united states?

@Z_ster_ Yes!

Heading to Comerica Park for the #OpeningDay? QLINE’s Park & Ride is the easiest way to get there. Park for just $5 at one of these two Wayne State lots and ride in to Montcalm St. Lot 12 (6050 Woodward) Lot 14 (6241 Cass Ave) Both lots are a short walk from QLINE's Amsterdam stations, giving you a smooth ride to the game without the hassle of downtown traffic and parking.

@MKYNXS @jFudgy_ Me. I saw it and went "hell yeah! About time." Lol

@jFudgy_ I wonder how many people fell for it this time lol

Hey @Grok, please list the top 5 countries the US sends aid to and the full all-time dollar amount. Directly next to that, list the number of times each has sent troops to fight alongside us in war. Simple list. Be very concise.

@nllv_comm @trumanation_ It adds an average of 13.8 seconds per game. Oh no!!! The horrorrrrrr!!!!!!

@trumanation_ You give this a few weeks. People are going to HATE watching baseball. This was a big mistake... all that stuff they did to make games more watchable on tv? That is GONE now.

WE HAVE OUR FIRST EVER ABS RAGE BAIT EJECTION😭

@crnvr_invictus @SDSLLC_USA He knows. That's just how this works if you're trying hard.

@SDSLLC_USA Have you tried actually looking it up? Just curious. I have no dog in this fight. But a lot of people ask questions without seeking answers and think this is proof of a conspiracy.

Okay, I have to ask. If Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin were the only 2 people on the lander. Then who was already filming them on the ground from outside?

@MutedbyMusk @Milajoy I got super lucky and spent my first 2 years in 5th Group, and yeah, hardly and black there. 6 years in 82d and 6 years in non-Airborne was very different. Almost all black and Hispanic Pl Sgt and above. We all noticed it. They always liked me so I wasn't complaining lol

When I was growing up in the 1970s and 1980s no one saw color. We were all just Americans. Why did that change?

@OnyxOdds @realistic_cynic @TheMasters Golf is gay

@realistic_cynic @TheMasters Can’t believe more people haven’t mentioned The Masters

What's the best sports month of the year?

@Travis_Sawchik As a kid I was traumatized by the bathrooms lol

Not preserving this ballpark was an epic fail

@clarkisking1 @iceball8314 I think that's in your own head. Never heard that.

@ControlledPairs It's only a tough question if you care about what other people think.

On the VA disability discussion. I've been on active duty for nearly 15 years. I've spent about 10 years on airborne status, graduated from Ranger school, completed special operations selection and assessment twice, served for 8 years in SOF, deployed to combat 5 times, more work ups, jumps, long range movements, weeks on reverse cycle, hours/days/weeks/months under nods than I can count. Hundreds (thousands?) of breaching charges, mortars, cannons, controlled detonations, Carl Gs, bangers, thermos, frags, and the like. I'm worn out but I'm ok. I ignored and lied about pain and sleep for years so I could keep doing the job. Annual PHA? Good to go, Doc! Send me! I'm finally in a job where I can take care of myself. It still feels like quitting to accept a referral and get checked out. Many of my peers are still in the fight. Many of my dudes got hurt for real. But, at my wife's insistence, I'm slowly but surely making appointments for the bumps and bruises - the wear and tear of a Soldiers' life. After ignoring a spot for a year or more I finally got it checked out last year. Skin cancer. Lucky it was the not-that-bad kind. Surgery. Gnarly scar. I'm fine. Got an MRI on my neck last week. I've had debilitating pain and mobility loss in my neck and down my shoulder/arm for years, it started when I tweaked it in Iraq in 2016. My doc said I have the neck of a 55 year old man. I'm in my mid thirties. Degeneration, arthritis, spurs, nerve canal is pinched and causing the pain down my right side. I'm fine. It hurts, but I'm fine. Surgery is an option. I won't take it. Pain management is an option. I'm not going down the opioid trap. So... physical therapy and continue mission. Knee is next on the list. It hurts but I'm fine. I don't sleep much, but I'm probably fine. I'm fine. I've never considered VA benefits. My calculus for not getting checked out sooner was to continue doing the job I love. I'm getting checked out now because I've promoted out of the job, my wife wants to grow old with me, and I want to meet my grandchildren. Do I deserve compensation for getting to do the job I love all those years? Hardly. Am I entitled to it? Entitled is an easy word to hate. Yet retirement approaches, and with it the decision to file or not file a VA claim. I'm inclined to pass. My wife disagrees. Not sure where I'll land. I suspect most of us are like me. We're fine. It hurts but we're fine. So what, if anything, does a nation "owe" a bunch of dudes who did the job as asked and got a bit banged up as expected? It's a tough question that I have trouble answering. You'll notice that often it's the dudes perhaps most deserving on paper who are least likely to advocate for themselves. Just writing that sentence hurts. We should probably take care of the boys. Especially the ones saying they're just fine.

@BCassSF23 @12986Fay @AB84 The Blaine I knew picked the potatoes out of his ear with a Bowie knife.

@12986Fay @AB84 Ha! Blaine was drinking Martini’s and Manhatans by his sophomore year in High School

What’s a baby boy name that screams generational wealth and private school tuition?

@HerzlMargot @leif78079 @paintwithalex

@leif78079 @paintwithalex We're going on 4 years now uninsured with 6 kids

does anyone ever just say "screw it I'm not getting medical insurance"?

@ProudBavaria Rotate your map, noob

Even a post-apocalyptic world can look peaceful and inviting.

@diffrinse @bittersteel196

@bittersteel196 The CK3 AGOT mod lacks Dragons right?

My computer is too old to let me run CK3. RAM is too expensive to buy a new one, so I am stuck playing the same ole Blackfyre run on CK2 indefinitely. Idk how but this smells like the work of that bastard Bloodraven

@AlexBerenson I'm just curious, but when doctors ask about my drug use, why do they never say anything about my weed use, but the alcohol use is always an issue? It's something I've definitely noticed.

Yes, alcohol is safer overall than cannabis, despite alcohol’s risks of death from overdose; this is the reason that for 2000 years societies around the world have criminalized cannabis and allowed alcohol use.

@trustttwow @ProudBavaria I always create a character and then join a house, either Targaryen or Blackfyre, usually as Egg's son.

@ProudBavaria I have had this mod installed for a while but never played it, is it still fun if you just want to play as a created character instead of an original one?

Y'all love this CK3 AGOT posting. Maybe I actually have to read the books so that I can enjoy the mod.
