There are almost always two answers:

Quebecois French split from France ~400 years ago and has its own history. Acadian French has an even earlier split and can be very hard for Quebecois to understand.

Only if they copied the movies. Stewie in the Family Guy speaks in a Mid-Atlantic accent which is why he pronounces his H’s etc.

Everyone I know has met a killer.

I never really understood it until I met people from Iowa for the first time. They didn’t have an accent in the way that San Diego doesn’t have weather, just a climate.

Never really. Mid-Atlantic was taught in elocution lessons but didn’t really exist outside film and theatre.

Midwest is classic “broadcast English”. It’s considered an almost neutral accent without a strong sense of place associated with it.

At a party hosted by a billionaire hedge fund manager, Kurt Vonnegut turns to Joseph Heller and says, “Our host made more money yesterday than you’ve made from Catch-22 over your whole life.”

Heller responds, “Yes, but I have something he’ll never have—enough.”

Worth less so harder to carry large amounts of capital.

Depends on your threat model. During speculative bubbles capital flows towards gainers no matter how crazy (NFTs anyone?). During corrections capital flows back towards commodities, and gold is … er…the gold standard. It has a lot of industrial uses blah blah blah. Copper is also good for these purposes and is an interesting contrast.

Nobody says “if you can’t touch it, you don’t own it” for copper or oil or pork bellies. That’s because that advice isn’t about using gold as an inflation hedge or safe harbour in a bear market. That advice is predicated on compete monetary collapse and the use of gold as currency. If you don’t live in a space where you can grow some of your own food, and have access to potable water from your own well I wouldn’t worry to much about it. You will starve to death or die in the food riots so gold won’t help anyways.

It helps with sound damping. A room without it needs a lot of soft surfaces to prevent it becoming an echo chamber. You can hear rooms “boom” after this is done.

Ursula K LeGuin?

Yes. But no kids and the gym is next to the office.

ADHD.

Not anymore.

It’s difficult to follow. It’s like they are drunkenly telling their side of the story to someone who already knows what happened.

Button, cremini, and portobello are all the same mushroom picked at different stages of growth.
