The kingdom was before the republic. I assume you want to prevent the empire?

This has literally nothing to do with women’s rights
this is exactly the point I’m making
You responded to criticism of the state of women’s rights under Taliban governance with criticism of America, you absolutely said something exactly that simplistic. If the post was saying that America and/or its allies should re-invade or otherwise try to overthrow the Taliban, sure, you might have a point, but it isn’t
You don’t have to think America is doing things right to think the Taliban are doing them wrong
The original being “This film is dedicated to the gallant people of Afghanistan.” See, for example, this review from 1988
Busby should probably not be considered a reliable source
That’s not to defend Israel’s actions in Gaza. They still killed all those people and destroyed their homes, regardless of the weapon they used to do it

Busby has form for spreading conspiracy theories about nuclear stuff and trying to profit off of it
Exercise Formosa
Well this certainly wasn’t the “Chinese troops in Taiwan” headline that I worried I might read. Apparently there’s a Formosa in Brazil and it’s not just the old name for Taiwan
Is it a worse look than what Tyson did to any of his real opponents because of the history of male violence against women, or is there something else you’re getting at? And is whether or not it looks good what should be the driving force being decision making in sports?
Combat sports already have weight classes, it’s not like you’d be putting a man up against a woman he has 30 cm and 50 kg over. If you’ve got people of similar size and ability, it doesn’t seem to me like their sex or gender matters. They all went in there expecting to both hit and get hit.
could be a very odd addition to something like a racing sim.
Maybe not as odd as you think, since the methanol fuel used in many motorsports series actually does burn invisibly
They’ve added to the post that slack tide is “something else entirely”. If they mean the point when the height of the tide is halfway between low and high tides, which is how I understood it, that should be one of the fastest-moving moments. As opposed to slack tide, which is when it’s not moving at all.
I agree wholeheartedly, but I think you’ve misread the post
That’s when the tide isn’t going in or out, which is more likely to be closer to the high and low tides
The Cartographer’s Guild. Although I have never actually posted there. I just stop by when I’m trying to draw a better map for my D&D games
Board Game Geek is cool, and Metal Archives is useful when I want to check that an interesting black metal band is not, in fact, a pack of nazis
The thing is that language constantly changes and it often does so towards whatever the habitual usage of it is, “rules” be damned. We’re not bothering with a thou/you distinction in English any more, for example. If people abandon the countable/uncountable distinction then it’s no longer incorrect, for whatever version of “incorrect” is being applied here.
I would instinctively go for “too much mashed potato” rather than potatoes plural, even if I would describe it as mashed potatoes in other contexts
the fact there’s two fricatives in a row at the end
Isn’t that the case for basically any plural noun with a singular form ending in a fricative in English? Paths, months, depths, loaves, dwarves etc. There are also verbs ending with fricatives that do it when in the right tense, like moves, breathes, leaves, or triumphs
I assume it’s about the apparently enormous consonant cluster at the ends, which is very rare in English. We have consonant clusters, yes, but not usually with five at once. Although it’s actually only three, since “ng” and “th” are one consonant sound each, we just write them with two letters
