You make me laugh, and I need that, so thanks! I'm sure your analyses are closer to accurate than my best guesses. I suppose what government or economic system states call themselves (or what media calls them) mean fa anymore. I'm not sure if we live in a post-truth world, or always have and it's just so glaringly obvious, only those really emotionally invested in their illusions and those without mental capacity to identify them (whether through overwork and other stresses or direct learning/developmental disabilities) insist otherwise. Maybe most fall somewhere between those points, I'm certainly not as informed as I prefer.

I'll have a look tonight or tomorrow. My project hours are all over the map, right now, which means my neighborhood and household obligations are, too.

Cheers!

Well they are ready people. They just haven't learned how to identify emotions or other distress, and only have one way to vocalize it. They're extremely vulnerable. Also, they don't know the difference between colic, hunger, constipation and other physical distress, and neither do you, without experience. A sharp, shrieking wail can be a clue that it's probably something other than hungry/nappy needs changing. Also, keep genitals covered with the used diaper until the fresh one is ready for use.

Yes, your mom is over the moon, perhaps she's willing to come help out with chores and feeding/diapering, cooking, laundry?

A little tip: I kept a small pail of water with detergent in it to drop clothing items in that had milk, spit-up and other lovely things, between laundry loads. It prevented staining and sour milk smells and saved time and energy costs.

Wow! I'm stunned! 😲

Well it's not done until it is, so we will have to see.

Clearly you mean a couple of billion.

Because ride-shares and meal deliveries are ~~less expensive~~ cheaper.

Because iso/power failures, lost/broken devices, let alone the government doesn't need to know every transaction, the inability to gift a displaced person $20, or money in a birthday card.

The people in those buildings were not of the legislative, executive, or judicial branches...I did laugh though

Probably won't have to pay. They're appealing.

Your English is fine. The same words often evoke different mental images from one person to another. Sometimes I have trouble distinguishing when to embrace literal meanings and when to go with the general gist of words. Thanks for addressing my comment, a gentle reminder for me.
