Wait, I just switched to Linux yesterday, and the nexus download site said windows was required. I figured it just doesn't work on linux

It's this Portland, Oregon or Maine? I live 45 minutes from one of these and a long way from t'other. What is the name of this arboretum so that I might enjoy it?

Mm-mm, if I had your giant feet

Out there on the beach

Could have outrun those birds

I'm getting desensitized to racism and bigotry, but the idiocy of this statement took me aback - "I would probably feel more comfortable there [in a whites-only country] because I'm white and that's the way this country was when my ancestors came there."

I was kicked out at 17. I was homeless for a short while, and spent some further time couch-surfing and then in what we essentially a halfway home. My 20s were rough, barely scraping by financially. But you can survive a lot in your 20s, and I'm glad I made it through.

I'm now 38, and it's difficult to condense the journey I've had into a few paragraphs. I got married this year. We own a house in a beautiful, tree-filled neighborhood. I'm a software development team lead despite no degree or formal training.

My life wouldn't be the same without the kindness of friends and strangers, second chances, and a sense of fierce and defiant optimism.

It's really great to see Emily outside of the dome!

This one was really fun! And I really liked Becca's and Caro's looks!

I imagine either it sometimes messes with the flow or the guest just didn't have anything unique enough. In another episode one if the guests (rehka, I think) mentions this prerequisite

"find it!" will cause her to search everywhere for her toy. For the other one, it's whichever starts yodeling if I splash water into the air. I've never heard another creature make the noises he does

I read an article years ago where the author played golf with him. The cheating was blatant and obvious, but not malicious. Cheating was a given. Trump expected everyone to cheat, and to not do so was foolish. Anyone who didn't cheat was a chump.

So I've been thinking about this, and I haven't done any research yet, but I wonder what email service exists that both respects privacy and also still will definitely be around for the long run
