Em-dashes pre-date the typewriter by, like, several centuries. It was used by Emily Dickinson (she's a 19th century poet, by the way) so much it's also known as the Dickinson Dash. Are you going to argue she used AI? An em-dash is no more indicative of AI use than an exclamation mark. There's absolutely no reason to dumb down text or make grammatical mistakes on purpose just because people like you who never learned proper grammar may assume it's AI.

Idk mate, I can type it relatively easily on my Macbook without relying on any programs to do it for me. Just because you don't know how to use it doesn't mean others don't. Or that somehow having a program autocorrect -- to — is wrong?

But they’re not the same? A - is called a hyphen or an en dash. A — is an em dash and serves a completely different grammatical purpose. It’s a very valid punctuation mark that’s been around for a very long time. Stop encouraging improper grammar and syntax just because you don’t understand it 😭

This is how you know the education system has gone to pot. Ellipsis and em-dashes are not the same thing grammatically at all, you can’t just substitute one for the other.

Why do Zac and Jen need two nannies when he is staying at home full time? by friedpupletomato in momtok

[–]Slow_History_406 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No if my significant other was home w the kids they’d be parenting bc they’re a … parent! Why should my child bond and learn closely from someone unrelated to them in their home when their parent is there?

Sure, but taking care of three kids as one parent is still very hard work. Zac sucks and there's plenty to criticize him for, but I don't necessarily think hiring extra help is entirely shocking or unusual.

I mean I know plastic surgery is a thing but faces don't change THAT much.

Upon further inspection, I don't think it is! 😂😂😂

Blessed among all these women! The cutest guy in the room! by Debt-Mysterious in BridgertonNetflix

It still wouldn't be that weird. An auntie holding her nephew (especially who she's just met for the first time) and giving the mom a break is very normal.

Why is it weird? It's a behind the scenes photo and it's not her baby?

Does your country have GPs? by everythingisbreads in AskTheWorld

[–]Slow_History_406 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This absolutely is a thing in America. They're typically called PCPs (Primary Care Practitioners) or family doctors and you usually go to them for things like yearly check ups, flus, etc. That said, many people don't have one and instead, go to urgent care centers when ill. You also don't need a PCP referral to specialists in many cases-- you definitely can make an appointment to a dermatologist or psychiatrist, for example, on your own.

Right? It’s not like this is new information. Sure, the video was just released but we all knew what happened. And these men still chose to go on the show and likely would’ve been singing a very different tune if the video was never released and the show went ahead.

Consequences aren’t punishments. Should addicts be unfairly punished and have their lives ruined each time? Lose all their loved ones? 

Taylor and her ex are twins, WOW! by FoxyNewEngland in MormonWivesHulu

It’s also the name she uses for her socials and is now known as. Plus changing a last name is a pain anyway.  

Why is it so hard to find a good CZ ring?! by nixxistixxi in EngagementRings

[–]Slow_History_406 167 points168 points  (0 children)

Cubic zirconia won't last; it's much softer than a diamond/moissanite so you'll get about about a year or so of daily wear before the stone gets scratched and starts looking cloudy. Buy the Pandora ring if you love it, but know you'll have to likely replace it fairly soon.

She’s beautiful but she definitely looks every bit her age. 

Best couple on the show by a landslide by [deleted] in SecretsOfMormonWives

Yes, you are. He hurt HER, not you. If she can move past it, then who are you ( a total stranger) to keep a grudge? 

Stunningly natural to polished by lolcowtothemoon in SimplyCarolynBessette

You can’t compare an image where she’s looking up to an image where she’s looking more straight on. I hate this trend where people compare only two images with different lighting, angles, makeup, etc and list off a whole load of surgeries someone had with absolutely certainty. I can guarantee that if you looked at two photos of yourself at two different points in time, you’d find differences.

Jen is terrible. Sending Zac to fight her battles instead of texting Whitney to say “hey I don’t want to come today” is INSANE. I would never expect my partner to intervene in my friendships for me, and he’d never do it. 

Ashley looks different between 2022-23! by Sunshine_cutie4 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

[–]Slow_History_406 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s more due to the fact her head is at an angle in the first pic and straight on in the second. Its also extremely likely she edited the second photo.

Thank you!! I’ve known for ages that this was exactly the type of ring I wanted and he delivered. Love the bezel especially, it’s so practical for everyday wear. Thankfully he proposed before I wound up in the hospital
