If anyone can make it through a blockade to deliver food, it’s Davos Seaworth.

I hope it’s more than just onions though.

There are a staggering number of varieties of plastics, and an insane number of uses for them that aren’t easily replicated with other known materials. Some of those plastics are much worse than others.

Plastic is not inherently “pollution.” That’s not to say that plastics don’t make up a significant amount of the world’s pollution, but like literally everything in life, it’s not as simple as a black-and-white.

The Fast and the Furious series.

So dumb. So macho. So entertaining.

“I see you’re worried about abuse by priests in the Catholic Church. Can I interest you in Buddhism?”

I’m not sure the analogy works, because the movie’s message is pretty xenophobic and xenophobia is contributing to the terrifying population decline of Japan.

On the road, sure.

But when I worked at a restaurant it was consistently the women’s restroom that was more work to clean.

McDonald’s still sells “hotcakes” for breakfast.

I mean, I’d rather have a milquetoast center-right Democrat than a fascist, given the de facto two-party system.

But maybe that’s just me.

Whatever happened to Ameristralia? Wasn’t that a thing back on The Old Site for a while?

Sure!

“If I’m asked, I’ll give grammar tips to whomever.”

Whomever is tough, because often this would be constructed as “I’ll give grammar tips to whoever asks.” And you would use “who” there, because “whoever” is the subject of the clause “whoever asks.”

Generally speaking, it’s usually safe to pick “whoever” over “whomever.”

But if you drop the “-ever” it’s a lot easier. Anywhere you’d use “him” (that is, the objective pronoun), you use “whom.” To whom, for whom, by whom, etc.

*Nanny Ogg knew how to start spelling “banana,” but didn’t know how you stopped.
