Dave Ramsey is a bigotted, sexist, racist piece of shit who got rich running mega churches. Ie: scamming people and the government.
He’s fired people because they’ve have children out of wedlock. The whole company is a cult.

In French, Quebec/Canada specifically, it’s called Dinde. A shortening of coq/poule/poulet d’inde.
Which translates to Indian cock/hen/chick.
It’s mainly cus settlers brought it back Europe thinking they were in India.

My SO and I died this during a stream once. I don’t know why lol.
We played Hades. I was right, she was left. It started as a joke but we actually made it decently far lol.

I would say, they look like dinkos, to us. We’re obsessed with pinguses so we see what we wanna see everywhere. And if we go to long without seeing dingdong? We’ll draw one or carve one or build one on top of a bank or a church.

Get in car after SO used it. Her BT connects. She goes into BT settings and disconnects. The phone auto reconnects. She turns BT off. The phone turns it back on. She is stuck in a loop. I can never connect phone ever again.
Technology is amazing.

It’s also to give people something to do. Something to practice and focus on getting right. Gives hope and keeps people from getting caught in a panic loop.

There are places in the US, that when you buy a house or property, you are given a choice. You can build a sidewalk for it yourself, or you can pay the city/county for a sidewalk.
The thing is, if you pay the city/county for the sidewalk, they stipulate that they can build that sidewalk where ever they want. This does not have to include in front of, or anywhere near, your house
The US is a very strange place.

I tell at any co worker about exactly this. We even deal with the public and they use terms and jargon no one will understand it leads to mistakes.
It’s just weird gatekeeping.
Oddly enough multiple classes I took at uni even covered communicating with simple terms, being understandable, and not using jargon. Yet here we are still…
