Supplies of food, energy, fuel and medicine to Gaza were cut off, before Israel began a ground offensive into the territory in late October. As of March 22, at least 31,000 people have been killed in Gaza, according to the Associated Press, citing the Gaza Health Ministry.

were cut off

I'd really like to know whether the journalists write that way on purpose or if they are asked to change it by the editor?

Only after the queers are evacuated.

Yeah immersion is the #1 way to learn and that's "the old fashioned way" other than the fact that apps and websites facilitate it.

I'm a huge fan of "language exchange" websites and apps. Basically the idea is they want to learn your language and you want to learn their language, so you do conversations where half the time you speak in one language and the other half you speak in another. Here's a list article that has pros and cons. Also, since your pronouns are he/him maybe you won't have as many people trying to use this as a dating app? That can be a concern for trans and/or femme people. Although you can always block if somebody is annoying af. https://www.mosalingua.com/en/how-to-find-conversation-partners-best-language-exchange-sites/

Other than that, you may be able to find somebody near you that is also learning the language and you can spend the entire conversation practicing your target language. If you feel comfortable, maybe do a craigslist personals post? Just meet in a safe, public place or do the convo online.

Hey I know this is just a vent post and all and wow all of that sucks. I'm so sorry.

One suggestion though. Other than stuff like Instacart, the grocery stores where I am have their own proprietary online curbside pickup thing and it's pretty affordable other than the fact that groceries in general are not affordable. It would be a much easier sell to say "hey drive me to the grocery store, it literally takes 5 minutes and we can go home right after."

edit: also if it's the only option, instacart with in-store pickup is cheaper than instacart with a delivery driver.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you make music (be that songs, beats, soundtracks, film scoring, or non-music sound design) on the computer and you don't have Spitfire LABS or DecentSampler, you're missing out on a TON of free, very creative virtual instruments and sound effects.

DecentSampler has a bunch of paid stuff in there too, but most instruments have a free version with a good amount of content. Plus the paid stuff is priced reasonably. Indie Bass and Indie Guitar vsts are great. Meanwhile, Spitfire Audio keeps their paid stuff separate on their website.

It's obviously not the same but DDR is just as good a workout and it's widespread.

I mean yeah but there's many communists there, aren't there? In addition to the fascists and monarchists?
