Language change I am having trouble with:
"I appreciate it" largely has been replaced by "I appreciate you."
I know and understand the change, I do. But my internal response is "I don't KNOW you well enough to know if I appreciate YOU. I do, however, appreciate the ACTION you just performed!"

The only problem with this scale is that if one DOES go to the hospital for help with pain at a 10, they do not help. They assess you to see if you are dying and if you are not, send you home and tell you to follow up with primary care.

Now that Dreamcatcher has disbanded/is on hiatus, my two favorite girl groups are NMIXX and Itzy. I really like the members of Itzy, their personalities and attitudes. (Inasmuch as ANY content I see is "real," of course. It's all micromanaged and edited.)

Pro-tip:
If you knit hats, mittens, scarves, etc., for donation (e.g., to homeless shelters) think about your yarn choice.
Yes, wool is fire resistant and warmer when wet.
But fewer people are allergic/reactive to acrylic, and acrylic is more easily washable.
Pros and cons.

If you are unclear on RaptureTok, what the rapture is supposed to be, where it comes from, what this has to do with Israel, where Christian Zionism comes into it, and the broad impact of religious psychosis on children, FunkyFrog has a funny & informative essay on the mess:
