    I’m too tired to look it up, but I remember someone saying that resilience or grit was one of the best indicators of success. Someone replied that actually the best indicator of success is if you came from wealth.

    It probably sounds silly but I quite enjoy not memorizing different names for days of the weeks and months like when I was learning french … Lundi, Mardi …

    Nice to be like 星期一,星期二,星期三 … for week days and 一月,二月,三月… for months.

    I was wondering this too, so I looked it up

    From Google:

    First, ‘dry’ indicates that very little vermouth has been added to the cocktail, so the gin is the primary focus. The typical ratio is 6 parts gin to 1 part vermouth. However, order ‘extra dry’ and you’ll get the slightest splash of vermouth, or even just a glass-coating wash.






  • Hang on, so the president instituted a vaccine mandate but the supreme court shot it down. How’s that fascist? I did mention that vaccine mandates aren’t actually new.

    If things are done at the state level isn’t that dependent upon the state? How’s that a blue thing? Were only blue states affected? Would you mind linking to any articles about this?

    I mean I think removing Roe V Wade was far more damaging than any of that stuff. I thought seizing the supreme court was messed up.
