I love how everyone evidently knows what dinosaurs sound like.

You realize the world is full of people and organizations with many different opinions and interests, don’t you? It is impossible for anyone to do anything, or fail to do anything without people being unhappy and critical about it. The bigger and more powerful you are the louder that will be. There should be nothing surprising about this.
But they are doing that themselves already. I think they care because handling takedowns creates work for them and because they may be taking down search results that generate them ad revenue.
Porridge is the original cereal! Crush or crack any grain, ideally fresh, and cook it just like oatmeal. Hot wheat porridge is pretty good! You can buy a hand crank device, called a “flaker” to crush your grains fresh for this (one brand is Komo). Oats this way have more flavor than that stale Quaker stuff, and whole grains keep fresh for years if stored properly.
Even ones that aren’t free often have a get in free day once a week or once a month.
It happens sooner and sooner. In convinced someday no one over 7 will get the memes.
So if we bring Spanish and Italian cars together, do they make more cars?
Can you say 10 before half nine for 8:20?
The problem is that “do you mind if” is really just an indirect way of saying “may I.” People often tend to reply to the actual meaning rather than the literal meaning.
So does that mean you can’t tell them apart in writing? Or in writing would that “ne particle” you mention be there?
Prepositions are so arbitrary. So it’s really stupid to be so angry about “on accident”. But I can’t help it.
Wait, a case where English is more logical? There must be some mistake!
A driveway is where you drive to get the residence, vs the walkway. Parkways are landscaped with park-like greenery .
The first thing that came to mind is lasagna.
Well “it’s human nature” can indeed be a cop out. It shouldn’t be a discussion ender. And it shouldn’t be a justification. Murder is a part of human nature too. However it is a reality to be worked with. And one can ask, in what conditions is this behavior brought out, and in what conditions discouraged?
Oh I agree with you. I didn’t mean asking why was flawed, but specifically asking why with the implicit assumptions we tend to carry about human actions being rational and conscious. I agree that asking “why is this a part of human nature?” is a good question.
Asking why like this has the implicit flawed premise that human behaviors like this are products of conscious thought. They are not. (I don’t mean this as a criticism of you particularly, it is inherent in our culture to look at everything humans do as if it were rational and conscious, despite the reality that so much is it is not.)
I’d answer this by saying it is human nature. Most people don’t think about it and are not aware they are doing it. Many might even deny it. This is not to say individuals can’t stop and reflect and be conscious and rational about. Some do but most don’t.
It’s like an internet poop knife.
Which is pretty much guaranteed with a cold drink. Any other brand of “natural” cane sugar has normal sized crystals, its really annoying getting these stupid big crystals in a coffee shop.
