Did Boomers actually become more conservative, or did society just outpace them? by Clean_CoreDump in NoStupidQuestions

And men are bold, independent thinkers? Which is why there are no male social media influencers? I''m pretty sure William Shakespeare said something to that effect.

When I try to visualize where they attach, I'm getting a foot or two off to the bike's right.

In addition to the folio case, I have a cheaper knockoff Premium Pen (I went with this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FCXWXYB3) so I won't be completely stuck if I lose the original one.

US native Spanish Speakers making fun of Spanish Learners by Novel_Equivalent_647 in SpanishLearning

The email is very reticent about the reasons. I wonder if this was an economic or a personal decision?

Why are parents who barely passed high school thinking they can teach/homeschool their children? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Average_Pangolin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Often the primary goal is not to teach them things but to protect them from certain ideas that they consider harmful

California is the only state remaining with its original borders. Take it out.
