No, that's a Dwarf Alberta Spruce. Albumen was a heretical southern French duotheist sect in the 12th through 14th centuries who were the victims of a crusade and the Inquisition.
Thank you! Of four siblings, three of us have managed to stay novid (to the best of our knowledge) which makes me wonder if we've got the Covid immunity mutation. It might just be luck, though, so I'm still always masking indoors.
Thank you for doing the difficult work of producing the transcripts; lying "more lightly" on you doesn't make it weightless. Until the transcripts I had no idea that a) there were first person accounts (not secondhand claims) or b) that there was violation of consent (aka rape), not just skeevyness.
Do you think it matters if you take one of each 2x/day or two of one in the morning and two of the other in the evening? I'm thinking that in the run up to going to the dentist I'll take one of each twice a day and that way if I forget a dose I'll still have taken one of each.
I think you may have parsed "I'm Indian" incorrectly. Shiv is Indian as in the south Asian subcontinent, not Native American. And he didn't mention America, he was celebrating *anyone* getting the British to "fuck off back to their country". Perhaps you were unaware of what the British did to India.
The skinny (4mm) straws they include are also fairly short. For taller cups I just taped one sticking out a few inches from inside a regular straw, and that worked fine if I made sure the tape seal was airtight.
They include little valve covers but I find them annoying and don't use them; YMMV.
Can confirm. Sip mask valves work well with duckbill style masks, though they don't show that on their site, & can reuse on new masks. They come with 10 skinny straws, but you can use up to 6mm straws, like KFC's are. McD straws are too big. I use the skinny straws in hopes of increasing valve life.
She's probably busy looking at Moomins, so let me jump in.
Tove Jansson wrote comic strips and novels featuring weird creatures called Moomin. Here's the Wikipedia article.
I remember hearing that there are three different genetic mutations which developed in people living in different parts of the world to deal with oxygenation at altitude. I believe Sherpas, Incas and Ethiopians who live at altitude tend to have the respective mutations. Selection pressure.
The quiz doesn't have my answer for the green space between the sidewalk and the road (parkway), nor the grassy island in the middle of a road (grassy median). It does have "Boulevard", which is close enough that I clicked it, even though, to me, that refers to the roadway including the middle.
And Chicago has different dialects than its suburbs. Not to mention vowels. I understand that it's undergoing the Northern Cities Vowel Shift, while the 'burbs are not.
I remember showing the quiz to a bunch of people from northern IL at a convention and the dialect map differentiated quite well.
