It’s not the best one that wins but the fastest, or possibly luckiest.

There are no coincidences. I betcha these are linked, and relate to some MAGA idiot.

It also seems to have spiked into use around late 1990’s, but it is first seen ca. 1600’s.

It probably came from Spanish “Conversar”. The suffix ar in verbs often changes to ate in conversion to English.

mayor.lacity.gov Why is this man not arrested for shooting at will? How much money will your city have to pay out in compensation while this psychopath continues collecting a paycheck from your city’s coffers? #LAPD

Once more,
‪@ mayor.lacity.gov the #LAPD are under your purview. If you don’t stop them, you are culpable.

The key difference is reusability. We know very well how to make single-use rockets.

The space shuttle was special due to reusability. It stopped flying because we lost 14 people in two accidents.

Starship is exploding because they are trying to make a rocket larger than Saturn V fully reusable.

Their assumed relationship ends first half of book 2. The show never shows the heroic Rand. The Rand that dragged his dying father through Trolloc and Fade infested woods back to Emond's Field. The Rand that took care and got Mat's Shadar-Logoth Dagger-poisoned shell of a man to Camlyn over months.

She really did do an incredible job. In a series with 2700+ named characters, she seems to have a voice for each one!

The Manetheren speech is *chef-kiss*

Rosemund Pike (aka Moiraine in the show) has the first 4 books in audiobook format. If you enjoyed the show, this is a great way to get introduced to everything that wasn’t. Give it a go!

I recommend you buy it to support the IP.
