What?? Peaceful protest my ass - they violently broke into the Statler Hotel past a whole ring of security and completely trashed multiple career fair tables in the middle of the crowded career fair. The company reps and the students trying to make professional connections fled the hall in fear, and the event had to be completely cancelled.
This guy (and all of the other students being kicked out) deserve every bit of what they're getting, and this kind of bullshit one-sided reporting completely justifies my ever-increasing skepticism whenever I hear people bitching about consequences at so-called "peaceful" protests.
Unless you’re suggesting that this man was involved in that situation, there’s room to feel sympathy for both murder victims.
This cop is either one of the ones committing atrocities, or one of the ones that stand by, hold the "thin blue line", and enable the ones committing atrocities.
Great question! The answer is that, well, you don't, but that's not what I'm intending unstained to mean here.
As it turns out, "unstained" is structurally ambiguous, because English has two different "un-" prefixes, each of which has different functions and different category selection requirements.
The first attaches to verbs, and means "reverse the action of", e.g. un-tie, un-do, un-stain, etc.
The second attaches to adjectives, and means "not X", e.g. un-happy, un-satisfied, etc.
So, if we want to form the word "undoable", we can either take the verb "do" and attach "-able" first, giving us an adjective "doable" to which we can then add "un-" to give us "undoable", an adjective meaning "not able to be done" ("Flying by flapping your arms is undoable")ORWe can take "do" and add the other "un-" first, giving us a verb "undo" meaning "to reverse the action of something" to which we can then add the suffix "-able", giving us "undoable", a different adjective meaning "able to be undone" ("Simple knots are easily undoable")
So, while both of these look and sound like the same word, they actually have different structures that correspond to the differences in their meanings.
In my OP, you read "unstained" as "unstain-ed", with "un-" attaching to "stain" to give a verb "unstain" meaning "to reverse the staining of", and then added the participle suffix, while my intended structure was to attach "stain" and "-ed" first, giving a participle (adjective) "stained", to which we can then add the other prefix "un-", giving "un-stained" "not stained".
Six years ago I tossed Warframe 10 bucks before I stopped playing to thank them for 500 amazing free hours, but that's literally the only time I've ever made any sort of freemium purchase.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The movie debuted at the height of turtlemania in 1990 and became the highest grossing independent film ever at the time. It's also a genuinely good movie.
I'm a big fan of hydrogen for stuff like cars. Install more than enough solar or hydro or whatever, then use the surplus energy to create hydrogen cells that can be stored long-term, so that the hydrogen itself is also created with clean, renewable energy, usable on demand.
Yup, I'm so outed by my... citing mainstream sources supporting completely uncontroversial and widely accepted facts, which "MAGA chuds" are well known to do, of course. rolls eyes
Y'all really need to chill on the tribalism bullshit here for a second or so, hey?
