Thinking on this further, when I read, I do so believing the author chose each word they use with intention. There are other words they could have used, but they used the ones I'm reading. And I think that is why I so resent AI - it presumes that doesn't matter. That there is nothing special 1/
And the 'just move along' part is so insulting to the writer and the reader! (Not shouting at you just mad that this exists). The dictionary is your friend, words are beautiful, we are lucky to have so many - how can they stomach flattening the myriad ways we have to express ourselves???

I immediately made the same parallel. I didn't even "learn" to read, I just suddenly COULD one day, well before I turned 3, and that was that, off to the races. When I started violin lessons at 7, we were neither taught fully by ear nor given proper sheet music, and the scrambled disaster 1/4

Knew I recognized this name and lady.
I interviewed her five years ago when she livestreamed herself tearing down a rack of masks in a Target and called herself "QAnon's spokesperson" when she got arrested.
She told me she was bipolar and was seeking treatment.

So the full title is COLOR TASTE TEXTURE: Recipes for Picky Eaters, Those with Food Aversion, and Anyone Who’s Ever Cringed at Food. I know that “picky eaters” is a loaded term, the sole purpose of it in the title is so it can be found by the most people. It’s used sparingly within the book itself.
I’m an Autistic classically trained chef and I wrote a food aversion acceptance cookbook and guide titled COLOR TASTE TEXTURE, that’s all about finding out what works for specific sensory needs and how to customize food for them. It’s useful for all ages, no cooking experience necessary.
Color Taste Texture by Matthew Broberg-Moffitt: 9780593538593 | PenguinRandomHouse.com: Books
An accessible family cookbook that offers solutions rather than tricks to empower the food-averse, autistic, and picky eater, with 46 recipes. This much-needed cookbook combines tips and techniques.....

I would like to take this opportunity to get on the record and apologize: I had complained about how every single thing at the grocery store now costs five dollars more than it used to, but I had not seen the latest data from DoorDash's State of Local Commerce report, which disproves that.

Again, the Dept of Defense was not previously known as the Dept. of War. The Army was previously the Dept of War & a cabinet position, same with the Dept of the Navy. In '47 they were combined (w/ War renamed Army & Air Force split off) as the National Military Establishment, later renamed the DoD.
Trump: "We have officially renamed the Dept of Defense back to the original name, Dept of War. And remember we won World War 1, we won World War 2, we won everything in between. We won everything that came before. And then we brilliantly decided to change the name. We became politically correct"
