Un Dorian Gray sin pasado, ni patria ni bandera.

I’m just a guy in the #pnw who likes going on adventures, and playing games with friends.

Three things I love: the Oxford Comma, irony, and missed opportunities.

Well, this thread has strengthened my desire to adopt a teen from foster care. I technically have/had a family but they were more like roommates than parents. Left at 18 and never looked back. Had my share of lonely holidays that I would dread when they came around. I’m not trying to say I’ve had the same story as those here, but I get some parts of it really well. I’m finally at a place where maybe I can prevent that from happening to someone else.

This is the first I’m hearing of this author, but seems like it: wiki

I vaguely remember it being put on hold for some alignment with European privacy laws or something along those lines.

English is a descriptive language instead of prescriptive, so make it happen!

You’re not alone. I tried reading them and the premise was something I could get behind but the way it was written drove me crazy. I agree that if they had a better translator to make it sound more native English, I probably would have been fine with it. Bit as it stands it sounded very Chinese still. I’m hoping the show will solve that problem for us.

Yeah, given my druthers I’d rather summer time, but that seems unlikely happen any time soon. So honestly, I’ll be happy if we no longer have to change clocks twice a year regardless of which we align with.

Oregon Senate just passed that bill. Here’s hoping.

That was my thought when they said X identified as conservative, Y liberal, the rest moderate or unsure.

How about none of the above since they’re all right of center?

Because our whole government operates as if this still the 1800s and the only thing holding us together is the Pony Express.
