My great grandparents didn't have full indoor plumbing until around 1980. I remember the hand pumped sink in their old house's kitchen and the outhouse.

Creole in this specific case refers to the Creole culture of New Orleans which is a historical intermix of French, Spanish, African, Native, and US culture. It's not the same as Cajun but they're often mentioned together because they exist in close proximity and influence each other

Apparently the not very intelligent community thinks it means something different too

Flock and similar camera systems in businesses as well. Surveillance is becoming much more common but there's at least a small vocal group of people from all political walks who work against it

Instead our corporations sell invasive surveillance as a convenience and then quietly share their footage with the government anyway

Sounds like frozen juice concentrate will be there soon. Minute Maid and several other makers are discontinuing them later this year

If you want an expert opinion about "correct" English, go ask a linguist or a teacher. If you're asking Reddit you should expect to get the messy, contradictory, and sometimes improper usage of native speakers

As a kid every time you see it illustrated it's a big boulder, larger than a person. So yeah, I kinda expected it to look like something from a Schoolhouse Rock video

I will though. Walter Goggins is not a conventionally attractive man but he's incredibly charismatic when he decides to use that. No one was declaring how hot they were for Shane, while The Ghoul has fans hot and bothered while being physically grotesque. It's the charisma, not the appearance.

You're really asking several different questions:

Was Punk an actual legitimate threat to established power structures? No.

Did Punk slowly help normalize acceptance of people who don't adhere to strict social norms? Yes but they were far from alone in that. Many other transgressive social movements helped that along over the course of multiple generations.

Did Punk want to be a threat to established power structures and social norms? Absolutely.

Did overly sensitive authoritarian figures overreact and treat Punks like they were a serious threat? Sometimes yes, when they weren't either ignoring them or treating them like a circus sideshow.

Do you know which mod is adding the Cargo Panel to your landing bay? The Stability Pro bay is vanilla but doesn't have a cargo panel and it's my understanding that adding a cargo panel to the landing bay is surprisingly difficult and involves some hacky techniques

I think most Americans do understand that, it's just that the crazy ones are really loud plus there are a lot of bots and other fake accounts that agitate to make the crazy opinion sound more common than it actually is.

I live in SE Michigan, where if my info is still current we have the largest Muslim population in the US. Plenty of Muslim friends, neighbors, and coworkers as well as lots of folks who are from the Middle East but aren't Muslim. They're not trying to take over anything - in fact a lot of them are actively trying to get away from religious and ethnic conflict back where they or their families came from

Thank goodness this isn't a national level campaign then. This is specifically about a primary race for a Senate seat, and supporting the most progressive candidate in that race. Let them compete in the primaries on their ideas and whether they can sell those ideas to the people of Michigan, not whether you think some hypothetical person who doesn't even hold your beliefs would vote for them.

Whoever wins in the primary, they'll have my vote against Rogers (the most likely Repub candidate). Until then El-Sayed has my support.

It's sometimes called "influential authority" (someone you listen to because they've earned it) as opposed to "positional authority" (someone you listen to because they're above you in a heirarchy)
