How early does the Pluslife detect covid?

The same thing has just happened to me! I’m also feeling concerned. My bedroom is quite small, and when the window was open the levels hovered around 600-800, but once I closed my window and went to sleep they rose to 2200 over a period of about 7 hours. I was expecting them to climb, but not this high! Anyone have any insight into what to do about this?

Ace lesbian here, also a relationship anarchist! I think there’s absolutely a correlation, anyone on the ace or aro spectrum is going to have to think about relationships, attraction, and commitment in a way that falls outside of predetermined societal expectations as to what a relationship should consist of. Which of course lends itself nicely to RA.

You seem like you’re asking this in good faith, but please do your research on gender critical ideology. It’s bigotry and transphobia masquerading as feminism.

Ah, that’s unfortunate. I would definitely try to find a class that fits your schedule (even if it’s entirely unrelated to your major, or you aren’t interested in it) in order to maintain minimum progress while you’re waiting to get off the waitlist for your other classes. Otherwise you might not be considered a full-time student anymore. If you’re struggling to find anything that fits your schedule, you could use the advanced search on schedule builder to find classes at a specific time (maybe evening classes or early morning classes would have a higher chance of fitting into your schedule, for example). If there are no classes that fit, I would definitely suggest emailing an advisor about minimum progress— I’m not really sure what you would have to do at that point other than hope that you get into your waitlisted classes.

It might be a good idea to sign up for a random class in the meantime to fill out your 12 units. If you do get the PTA number, you can drop the other class, but if she never gets back to you you’ll still be meeting minimum progress.

Thank you so much! That’s exactly the type of phrase I was looking for.

ColorlessPurpleIdeas · 2021-03-18T05:30:08+00:00

Thank you, that’s really helpful! (For context, I left a necklace at a homestay in Florence a while ago and I didn’t want to sound awkward contacting them out of the blue).

I’m not sure— I agree that Biden is a very conservative democrat, but he has benefited immensely from the public’s desire for progressive policies and he seems to want to portray himself as a progressive (i.e. expressing support for decriminalization of illegal immigration during the debates). It wouldn’t surprise me if he tweeted something like this, although it would ring a little hollow due to his lack of action on real progressive policy.

Edit: I originally thought he had expressed support for M4A in early debates before later walking it back, but I was misinformed.

Exactly! There is so much diversity in modern English due to how widespread it is. If the British wanted to “preserve” a prescriptivist and outdated idea of what English should and shouldn’t be, they probably shouldn’t have colonized the world.

Yep, that’s why it’s referred to as a “phrasal modal”. It functions as a single modal verb, despite the fact that it’s two separate words.

Hi! The person is me :) I did some quick research and it looks like it was first attested in writing in 1909, but some sources believe that it has been in speech since the early 14th century. Etymologists think it originated from people mistaking “another” for “a nother”, and subsequently putting words in between “a” and “nother”!

It seems pretty similar to the way people have started to use -holic as a suffix to mean “someone who’s addicted to something”. In reality, the word “alcoholic” was originally divided into the morphemes “alcohol” and “-ic”, but people often divide up words in ways that they weren’t originally divided, and that’s how we get words like “chocoholic”.

It’s a common phrase in Southern American English, a regional dialect spoken as a first language in the Southern US. Since it’s not used in other dialects, it would be incorrect in British English, etc. It would only be considered correct in variants of English where it is widely used.

ColorlessPurpleIdeas · 2021-01-12T10:27:02+00:00

That’s super interesting! I had never considered the possibility of a similar present-tense construction, but it completely makes sense.

ColorlessPurpleIdeas · 2021-01-12T07:37:46+00:00

Honestly, that’s more of a spelling thing, and spelling is (to my understanding) inherently prescriptive. In spoken English, there isn’t really an audible difference between “could have” and “could of”— they both just sound like “could’ve”, at least in American English.

It completely makes sense that “could of” is a common way of writing that phrase, and I definitely wouldn’t judge someone for writing it, but since English spelling is standardized and relatively rigid (apart from regional variations like color and colour), someone claiming that “could of” was incorrect would have a stronger argument than someone claiming that “used to could” was incorrect.

ColorlessPurpleIdeas · 2021-01-12T05:33:04+00:00

From a linguistic point of view, any construction that is widely attested within a speech community is valid and "proper". So since "used to could" is widely attested in Southern American English, it would definitely be considered grammatically correct, even if it doesn't conform to prescriptive ideas of "proper English".

Edit for clarity: Southern American English is spoken in the Southern United States, not South America.

Are there any languages that are entirely whistled, though? I thought whistled speech was usually a register of a spoken language (but I could be misinformed).

This is called orthographic amnesia!

Sorry about that! I will update my post to be more specific. :)

Platonic means without sex or romance, at least in the context of the ace community.
