As an American that lived in Canada for a few years.
Yes. I mean, first of all it was over 200 years ago. And Americans aren’t generally great with history. Second, we don’t really think about it as Canadians. I was at least taught it was British troops, which is accurate, but I never really made the connection that it was really Canadians until I lived in Canada and a Canadian made the claim.
Interesting question… After a small amount of research.
The FDA in the US and the INS globally. The number is just a sequential identifier, i.e., red #3 was approved before red #5.
You can’t have a solution if you ignore half of the problem statement. It’s completely unhelpful.
Problem: I want to be able to type better while having long nails.
Your solution: Don’t have long nails.
Someone didn’t read the article. She addresses exactly this.
I can already hear the trolls making jokes about women being concerned about breaking a nail. If it’s so inconvenient, why not just have short nails? Well, I’m not out here wearing long nails for fun. Being a reviewer often means acting as a part-time hand model for whatever gadget I’m testing. The Internet Nail Police has repeatedly shown up in my comments over the years if my polish is chipped or, god forbid, there’s a smudge of dirt under my natural nail.
This isn’t surprising to me. I know that this might not be strictly relevant to this community, but I thought I’d share anyway.
I live in a conservative state that has restricted a lot of women’s health services(abortions). We had a really great family doctor, she was my wife’s OB, she was my kids pediatrician, she even delivered my youngest. She moved to New Zealand over a year ago and we are still upset over it.
We have multiple friends and acquaintances that had to go to a neighboring state for a “procedure” because hospitals in my state refuse to do anything that medically is related to abortions. One friend had a miscarriage and needed a procedure to remove remaining tissue in her uterus and she had to go to another state, even though there wasn’t an embryo in there anymore.
It’s nuts. I’d love to get out of here, but we have young kids and all of our family is local.
