I’m studying a couple of languages that don’t have English as the native tongue. They provide no grammar notes.

The ones with native English do, but accessing it is not intuitive since you have to go to the Units view.

I find brutalism beautiful. Wish we could have more of it in my country but solid concrete, especially preformed, performs poorly under shear.

It’s gotten so “brutalist” is almost synonymous with “earthquake-prone”.

I wonder what gun ownership would look like in 20 or 30 years if right now were enacted (and not thereafter repealed) a countrywide prohibition on advertising of guns & ammo, and on showing any firearms before the watershed and at any time in G- and PG-rated media.

Putting aside the reality that this could never happen because of frozen peaches and strawmen on slippery slopes, I strongly suspect it would do a lot to curb the fetishisation of firearms.

Those people always seem to ignore the fact that 5% increase on sod all is still sod all.
