I'm a little bit late to the pineapple party but I wanted to say that I recently saw a 6 oz container of non organic blueberries for over $9 and I thought THAT was outrageous.
The U.S. military has started moving a pier towards the Gaza coast, a U.S. official said on Wednesday, one of the last steps before the launch of a maritime port promised by President Joe Biden to speed the flow of humanitarian aid to Palestinians....
Wtf is even the fucking point? If we're gonna give Israel the weapons to genocide them with one hand why even bother with this fake bullshit "aid" with the other hand? Is anyone fooled by this?
"It helps, but I can still tell that I have a deficit compared to most people when it comes to those things."
I was totally gonna ask you about this until I got to the end! It seems like thinking without any kind of internal monologue would be incredibly abstract which might be good for some things but it would probably suck ass for trying to remember or understand extremely detailed instructions and things like that! I'm so curious what it's like to think the way you do and I wish I could flip a switch for a little bit to experience it because it's kind of hard to really imagine what I would be like.

The googlest thing ever. Typically English words that are borrowed from French and would take "the most" as a modifier because that's how it's done in French whereas English or other borrowed words take "est". It means the same thing. With words like Google, you could do it either way but as a native speaker the most sounds better with this particular word to me.
To say the second meaning it would be phrased more like "this is the most Googlest news week" or "this is the most Google news week".
People will understand you no matter how you phrase it though! It's just a matter of making sure you understand us since there can be some nuance that isn't totally obvious.

Scott Gardner, curator of the Manter Laboratory for Parasitology at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, said once any worm is in a brain, cells calcify around it. “And you’re going to basically have almost like a tumor that’s there forever. It’s not going to go anywhere.”"
Plastic in general, except that we know and just keep doing it. I'm trying to use less plastic if I can but it's frickin everywhere. If you want to buy an ear of corn it's wrapped in plastic as if it isn't already wrapped in nature's protection. Seriously people.
