I went to the Queens Italian restaurant where George Santos has somehow spent almost $50k in campaign funds since 2020, often in installments of exactly $199.99, one cent below what you have send the FEC receipts for. I tried to recreate his favorite meal. slate.com/news-and-polit…

English has many pairs of words where '-th' was once added to make a noun out of the other, like 'width' and 'wide'. My favourites are the ones for which the link may not be obvious now, like: - 'mirth' and 'merry' - 'drought' and 'dry' - 'filth' and 'foul' - 'sloth' and 'slow'

you might agree with them, you might think there’s no good options, whatever. But backing politicians to do the right thing in SL just makes you an easily exploitable mug. The PR win from just using the money for food kitchens on the 4th was right there, but they won’t take it
