My comment was devoid of assigning blame. There is clearly a structural patriarchy that is influencing the decision. But if you don't think that's why she retracted her statement, then I got some land near the coast?

Well, when you realize your source of massive amounts income is going away for up to 10 years and won't pay any alimony or child support, then you start to reconsider your options.

I'm very suspicious of this, especially the suggestion that it is from 1388, which might make it the oldest diamond wedding band ever, as some sources suggest diamond wedding bands began being made in the early 1400s. (and that it is being evaluated by an auction house and not an archaeologist. Also, that it was found in Britain and is being auctioned and not being preserved, as you have to report all finds there and presumably a museum would be interested in the oldest known diamond wedding band.)

Ye already did agree to buy Parler, more than 2 weeks ago. Doesn't seem like it will go through, but I thought the same about Twitter.

Eagle fern would specifically NOT be a wildflower. Ferns don't flower.
