As an indigenous person who grew up without running water or modern plumbing for the first ten years of my life in Canada … I always appreciated this quote …
Will Durant Quote: “From barbarism to civilization requires a century; from civilization to barbarism needs but a day.”
Personality, presence and confidence
Natural self confidence, but NOT an arrogant selfish confidence.
Some people naturally have confidence and presence and some people need to build it as a skill.
I know guys and gals with little to no knowledge or skill build up careers because they just knew how to talk and connect to people.
I also know guys and gals with years of education and degrees but have little to no way of politely or easily getting along with people.
A safer solution would be to just purposely target your arrival to the other side in empty space. While also travelling in a fully functional spaceship. Just make sure your little ship arrives within a set distance to Earth otherwise you will have to figure out how to travel millions of kilometers to get to where you’re going. If technology gets to the point of developing safe time travelling, I’ll assume that the same level of technology should be able to develop a space ship.
Yes it is for most words.
Goose is niska … the plural is niskuk
Beaver is amisk… the plural is amiskuk
It’s not a hard rule but it applies to many things, objects and animals.
Five second rule applies here
For those suffering from kidney stones
If a group of people say or do something intentionally hurtful, justify it with their own logic and keeping doing it, even when you tell them to stop or show them that you’re upset, that’s …
POLITICAL CONSERVATISM
If an entire population accepts one group of people saying or doing intentionally hurtful things to another group of people on a societal basis based on religious, cultural and historical precedents and beliefs, that’s …
COMPLETELY NORMAL
I’m Ojibway/Cree from northern Ontario in Canada
In English - a group of moose is just ‘a group of moose’ … as far as I know, I’ve never heard of meese or mooses … or else people just say two moose, three moose, four moose, etc.
In Ojibway/Cree - one moose is ‘moose’, because moose is an indigenous word … a group of moose in my language is MOOSUK

Confused -> sit in a forest

How about
I’m almost 50 now and in my lifetime … I’ve never owned a brand new car or truck. I’ve always bought used or near new. An old auto salesman once told me that for every person who buys a brand new vehicle, as soon as they drive off the new car lot, they’ve immediately lost about a $10,000 value to their vehicle. So I’ve always bought used. I bought a 2004 Volvo Station wagon about ten years ago when it was already ten years old! I take care of it and it still runs as a reliable vehicle that’s given me very little trouble and still runs and looks great today. It’s not perfect, it’s got minor signs of rust and I’ve invested about $5,000 in repairs to it as this point but after buying it for $4,000, I’ve had a vehicle that didn’t cost me much for ten years and it’s still good. Meanwhile, my young 28 year old neighbour with a good paying job paid $70,000 for a brand new GMC truck (beautiful vehicle) that blew a transmission after the first year and has given him headaches ever since. He got repairs under warranty but he felt funny when I he parked next to me one day with a Toyota Echo he was given as a loaner. After completing his payments for the truck, it will probably cost him about $80,000 to $90,000 and he can resell it to someone or trade it in for $40,000 in four or five years.
Isn’t this the origin of the modern name ‘bear’ … which comes from an older word for the colour ‘brown’ … because ancient people in Europe were so fearful of this beast that they didn’t want to call it by its name and instead refer to it as the ‘brown one’ … or just the ‘brown’
I’d commit sudoku
Fork? … I’d use the same spoon I used to make the food and eat it straight from the pot to save myself from doing more dishes than I have to.
When appearances and etiquette become more important than the food … I’d rather have a box of KD and watch some Netflix in my underwear.
But what happens when you are served a seafood dessert made with fruit and fish?
The Masterson’s will have a bit of a tizzy when it comes to hosting next months neighborhood afternoon soiree. I’m sure the Jefferson’s will have a chuckle at the end of the meal.
A friend of mine just sent me a Facebook link that says that decomposed candidate #2 was caught taking bribes from corporations … and that they’re a communist.
