Retired IT guy. Worked most of my life in healthcare/biotech. Transplant from L.A. to SE Iowa, a blue dot taking root in acres of red.
May you have many years of happiness.

Nothing says ’Official LE squad” like everybody dressed differently and the head guy wearing a camo ball cap backwards.

There is a much greater chance that I will run a marathon to celebrate my 80th birthday one month hence.

So nice to see a thread where almost everyone recognizes “media” is a plural and uses the correct verb form. Thank you!

I once saw a review that said something like “X is a multimedia artist whose works use several different mediums to create thought-provoking blahblahblah“

Sadly, “actual” and “actually” have become red-flag words on social media IMO.

Call it what it is.
THIS IS A COUP.
