I found this really interesting so I looked it up! This website claims that “anchovy” also came to English from Basque, along with “bilbo” and possibly “jingo”.

this is actually a thing, I guess (NSFW)

Is there a better SMS app on android? I tried switching to a FOSS app but I was missing messages and group messages completely didn’t work, so I went back to Google’s app.

Witcher series was originally in Polish

Let me know if you like it!

To be completely honest, no. I did really like the ending, but my brain mostly dumps everything once I get into a new book series!

Oh! I actually just thought of one more that has multiple characters with multiple perspectives with intertwining stories from different eras - The Clockmaker’s Daughter by Kate Morton. I read it a long time ago but I still think about it on occasion :)

Ohhhh, if you like pandemic themed books too, my all-time favorite book is Blindness by Jose Saramago (skip the sequel, I haven’t read it but I heard it’s trash in comparison).

If your interest in pandemics extends into zombies, I also just read the Newsflesh series by Mira Grant which I also thought was really cool.

I also read Station Eleven recently! The only thing I can think of that is similar is maybe Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell. It’s also a movie, if you’re into that :)

It depends, how many USB ports does the sister have?

I understand why you didn’t stay in that one, but why the hell would you come back to this timeline??

The early bird in the hand that feeds is worth a thousand words

Missed opportunity to show a dead one as ghost type lol

You realize that there are proportionally more “old hags” out there than 18-20 year-olds? And that there are also proportionally more “old” people who may feel more attracted to those “old hags” that are closer to their age?

Edit: took the time to find the wiki page referencing how even our founding fathers liked older women
