What's a regional pronunciation of a word that seems normal to you but is weird to people from other parts of the country? in c/[email protected]

We recently moved to a new area and there is a nearby town called Monticello. The locals all pronounce it mon-tee-sell-oh and will correct you if you say mon-teh-chel-oh. Doesn't quite fit the question cause I think the locals are insane for that 😅

No one person can make that determination or all of us. Also, have you looked into what actually happens when a body gets donated. Here is John Oliver's investigation:

Sounds like you need to check out desktop mode. Hold the power button, or go to the power section in the menu, and select "Switch to Desktop". That puts you in "PC" mode. You could install Heroic launcher or similar to get games from other platforms. Or you can get your installers and add them to steam and use proton to run them.

The argument in the cartoon is almost exactly the same problem Harry Potter has. The protagonists, save one who is ridiculed, don't try or even want to stop slavery or make their capitalist nobility make things more fair. Not an American phenomenon.

Remember, its not Americans vs the citizens of the world. It's the capitalist against you.

Sometimes a certain smell will take me back to when I was young. How come I'm never able to identify where it's coming from? I'd make a candle out of it if I ever found it. Try to sell it, never sell out of it, I'd probably only sell one.

Not spending on one day sends a message and that is the point, not to hurt them. You wanna hurt them? Don't spend for a week. If covid shutdowns taught us anything its that disrupting capitalism for a week absolutely hurts them.

Because to even reach the house floor those bills would have to go through Republican controlled comities. That wouldn't even gum up the works, they would simply be ignored. So she focuses her efforts on education people on what is really going on, instead of what the corpo news outlets are spewing.
