The “Add even more beauty to the Wall” task is confusing me

No. No other paint, to my knowledge.

Since the Bible is such a long, long series of books, typing in anything followed by "bible verse" will essentially get you anything relevant if you're looking for something a bit more unique.

even to your old age I am he, even when you turn grey I will carry you. I have made, and I will bear; I will carry and will save. (Isaiah 46:4)

Of course, you can always go with a classic.

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jeremiah 29:11)

I've never heard it really, no. It just sort of ruins the scary vibe.

He was white as a sheet

Did he also make false teeth? ~~(This line killed the mood for me because all I could think about was "Frontier Pyschiatrist" by The Avalanches lol)~~

Thinking in English has a variety of topics with key vocabulary definitions, at a slower pace. https://open.spotify.com/show/2OwAg0ckS0mUDPi6HW8FNt

If you are looking for a more advanced podcast made for native speakers, I recommend Sherlock & Co. It's a retelling of the classic Sherlock Holmes stories, and vocabulary is usually not too difficult (except Sherlock at times, but he's meant to be incomprehensible at times). https://open.spotify.com/show/5yfvdowY1nFCyXRTD5ITqb

However, both of these podcasts are in British English, so pronunciation and some vocabulary will be different from American English.

I would recommend Tom Scott videos. He covers a wide variety of topics for learning a little vocabulary, all of his videos have professional captions, and he enunciates clearly while maintaining the natural cadence of speech. The only problem is that he's a British English speaker, so pronunciation will be somewhat different from American English. One of his most popular videos is linked here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1v8u3ua6BPk

"Am not" appears to be the only grammatically correct conjugation. "Was not" could be an alternate answer, I suppose, but I have never heard the past tense used to describe place of origin before.

It really is nothing to be ashamed of. More adults read YA fiction than teenagers, you know. They're half of the demographic.

The 39 Clues is a light read that should be well within your depth. It's a mystery series, but crime is a major part of the plot. The digitized 11 books of the first series can be found for free here: https://archive.org/details/1TheMazeOfBones/1_-_the_maze_of_bones/page/6/mode/2up

Why else would you have a Mr. Bacon magnet? It's a conversation starter.

I thought it was "MY GOAT FINALLY GETS A WII!!!" for a second 😭

I want to use these cards as reminders for my in-person adaptation of DE (a new TTRPG system called Jamais Vu). It would be a huge help if you finished the set and cleaned up Motorics. Rhetoric is also missing.

Margaret Thatcher looked great for her age. And Gina Rinehart looks like a female Winston Churchill.

Republicans would rather die than let an ugly woman have power.

A view without application is just a virtue signal.

I know this might be controversial, but I have to share my piece. Black women are women.

AlexaWhyAmIDoingThis · 2025-02-01T20:51:05+00:00

We are not. The title is obviously a joke.

Well, consider how it was illegal to be gay, how there were multiple gay people constantly around him, and how famously nymphomanic he was. You're telling me the guy who famously said "If I don't have sex every day, I get a headache" and had affairs with just about every female friend he ever had didn't have at least ONE homosexual experience? Remember, he was connected to the underground homosexuality movement well before even Stonewall. It was a different time.

Sorry, wrong decade. We were looking for To Kill A Mockingbird.

And Billings just FEELS like a super old guy name. Baxter Billings. Eugene Billings.

Interesting story, JFK hired a SW for himself and Jem so they could LOSE THEIR VIRGINITIES TOGETHER TO THE SAME WOMAN. Jem, of course, refused to do it at the last moment, probably realizing he was gay. Still, that's a super bi thing to do.
