whomst is always acceptable

‘amongst’ ‘whilst’ ‘amidst’

we don’t use Middle English anymore and these don’t sound fancy. begging people to stop filing copy with these obsolete -st suffixes

can we go back to calling them tweets now that elon's spurned the old branding?

prob never gonna watch the bomb movie, but would be curious to hear whether they frame the drops as WWII closure or as cold war posturing, thanks in advance

+ More enjoyable at licence-friendly speeds. Slow boost build affords lots of time & room to play in second. Fast without being too fast to enjoy.
